GeoKureli's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cats on Mars]

most keyboards can't process both up and down at the time time

otherwise, cute game

[Hanukkah Runner]

love the visual effects but the gameplay could have been more interesting

KJScott responds:

I agree with you, I ran out of time for the release schedule to do more with the gameplay but I hope future version will address that. I'm currently collecting suggestions to work on in the future.

[Ninja Demon Runner]

The controls are bonkers to me. I had way more fun when I treated it like a 2 button game of just jump and slash. I would do arrow keys or WASD
Left/A Right/D: move
Up/W: Jump
Down/S: attack

Add that and a more interesting score combo mechanic and I would be hoooked

[Newgrounds High Visual Novel]

this is high art. you probably wouldn't get it

[BulletHeart]

Really well done and super simple. chaotic mode was nuts! didn't log my 9k+ score on my second try, though

[Chucan Fall]

Cool idea, I'd like to see it expanded further. It's like the opposite of a kitten cannon like launch game. rather than landing on every platform, it'd be cool if you had to land every few seconds, so you could press your luck and skip a platform for riches. and maybe spend money to increase that time.

[Manorvania]

I'm having a lot of trouble dashing I didn't realize i dash towards the mouse because I never touch the mouse. I just assumed I would always dash left unless holding the right button, even when I was facing right. it seems odd to require me to mess with my trackpad when the game is otherwise totally playable without the mouse

Otherwise this is a fun game, with nice graphics and dialog

Edit: just got the scythe, I can't really continue playing since I don't have my gamepad with me
:/

[GUNWYRM]

I feel like theres something I'm not getting. every time I shoot I have to immediately turn around get some distance and re-orient myself to shoot again. It never feels like fast paced arcade shooter rather than a slow and calculating one. graphics and sound are amazing

I should mention I'm on a trackpad

MistaJub responds:

Try getting a mouse, this game is really hard without one.

[Candy's Dream Egg]

cool game, nice take on the theme but it seems like every level has some red herring or section I don't use that I always feel like I'm not beating the level the way you intended. I also feel that I'm not solving it the right way because most levels don't feel challenging or introduce new strategies. would love to see the level design touched up in a post-jam version

Edit: Yeah, Im def not doing this right. In the second level that uses lock and keys, I beat it without getting any keys

[PICOLLAGE2020]

The collage is awesome but the puzzle just isn't. Great to see all the fantastic artists contribute, I could stare at this for days and still find new details.

But the puzzle has a lot of ambiguous edges that really threw me for a loop. It also would have been nice if I could lock pieces into position and easily visually distinguish ones I haven't locked. Also I didn't get the achievement when I solved it.

Edit: got it the second time :/

Sevi responds:

If it was easy, it wouldn't be a very good puzzle. That being said, the next one will be better for sure.
