GeoKureli's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Unnamed Chick Game]

The ability to pick up hearts while already at full health doesn't add to the challenge as much as it adds to the frustration. I would have just removed it entirely and focused on the other mechanics.

Otherwise cool game with nice levels and cute graphics

nyunesu responds:

oh nice, thanks for the insight!

[OVERGAME]

Insane overall quality on this, but GTA isn't the slightest bit fun. I just die before I even know where I spawn, and somehow i got outside the level and soft locked it.

[Mount Kahuna]

Cool idea! this is a really clever puzzle game and I'm pretty addicted. If you polished it up and found an artist I would buy this game.

I find myself getting impatient because simple tasks take way more steps then they really need to, causing me to rapid tap the keys and I end up falling and becoming even more impatient. I think you could zoom in 2x-3x and remove a lot of redundant movements but still offer the same cognitive challenge.

I adapted the controls for simple tasks, long vertical or horizontal parts. You think this is better?

[Ant Art Tycoon]

cool idea, well executed, but no matter how many blue ants I buy I still end up waiting for the original black ants for most of the time. let me sell or get rid of black ants and i'd up to 4 stars.

also please add a mute button

[Upgrade Boom Bang]

becomes repetitive almost instantly.

good job on the audio. The art does the job, but the game play is just boring. I recommend adding other enemy behaviors.

[Ready to Fly]

Not bad, but not that good. the collision is pretty wonky, when I touch a wall i stop moving horizontally, which made platforming feel clunky and the giant hitbox didn't match the graphic, making even more frustrating.

Doesn't Stencyl output html5? flash died, yo

[windows 96]

Very rough around the edges. practically unusable.

[Dance In The Dark]

Isn't loading for me.

[Space fight]

Everything is too sporadic to have any kind of strategy. It's impossible to see the enemy bullets. I feel that most of these issues stem from the games framing. I recommend a more zoomed in look, with everything slowed down a touch.

It's just not any fun hitting super tiny, super fast ships with tiny bullets

slo0om747 responds:

Okay, thank you.

[Tetris]

A neat project to learn game dev, but there are far better free Tetris games out there.

You did a decent job on this, I didn't notice any bugs, but the controls feel kinda clunky. I don't see a reason to limit controls to arrow keys. Why not Z and X to rotate, allowing UP to quick-drop?

The pieces are a little sticky, would be nice if I could move horizontal even when the piece reaches the bottom. and i don't like that i can't move left or right once down is pressed.

Finally, the game feels pretty boring, no sounds or music, it takes a while for pieces to drop (especially since the down button is a big commitment) and no cool effects. you could probably earn 2 more stars from me just by adding some juice.
