GeoKureli's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[PICO'S BRAWL ARENA]

Not surprised to see this games score steadily rise since I first saw it. I struggled with the UI and almost gave up, but the gameplay well worth it. wish i had more friends to play with, The AI is nice but so aggressive and brutish that it really forces you to master the timing early, and I was hoping for something more casual.

Would have liked to see this with ringout KO's, imo

TheBlueHatted responds:

You can adjust the CPU difficulty in the options menu, maybe that helps

[Profile Picture Party!]

Edit: level 3 has been fixed, but I still didn't realize I could connect like-shapes to increase the power, until someone casually mentioned it to me. it's like a whole new game now. still playing, will update score as I play

Edit: finished! I liked all the different abilities from all the shapes, would love to see more of this. every level took me like 100 tries, the margin of error is pretty tight

migmoog responds:

Sorry about that in level three, hopefully the change fixes that

[Pico-Cross Collab]

COOL WHY WASNT I INVITED

Phaox05 responds:

Well, karl posted he needed help for this game, so maybe asking him?

[Newgrounds Intern DEMO]

I'm on Chrome for mac, it just says "WebGL not available"

Scootakip responds:

I don't own a Mac, but my suggestion would be to make sure that both Chrome and your video drivers are updated

[Prism Indigo]

Following up your replies to other reviews, a common trick to distinguish enemy bullets is to make them flash white and red

F1Krazy responds:

Yeah, that sounds perfect, actually. There's already a subtle flashing effect built in, but not every bullet has it, so I'll have to find a way to apply it to the ones that don't. Thanks for the suggestion!

[Portal Defenders: Tower Defense]

Awesome Tower defense, really great job all around.

is there a mechanical advantage to fully upgrading a unit, beyond the normal ugrades? or is it just a skin change?

I didn't get the over 9000 medal despite unlocking all the upgrades. also vans feel really cheap, mainly because the canons shoot behind them. In general it feels like my strategy isn't based on utilizing my towers strengths but accounting for whatever janky quirks you decided to give them

BoMToons responds:

Laser shots have a larger hit area when fully upgraded. Fully upgraded troops move faster and don't get destroyed by vans. I don't think there's anything beyond cosmetics for the cannon towers. Yeah, vans are cheap, but we needed something to escalate the drama toward the end!

[Ring Ring Bang 2]

The vfx are S tier, this whole game looks and feels nuts! You did a ton of things right, but my big beef is the enemies. they take so much damage and they move similar enough where I just keep going in circles and shooting. I have no idea whether its actually beneficial to use the charge shot, they all take so much damage that I always end up doing half quick shots half charge shots, but the difference seems insignificant, so far

Edit: after sending this review I went back to the game and none of the keys work, only mouse.

Just-a-ng-dummy responds:

Thanks for the playing!
The enemies stick to the same movement pattern which is kinda stinky yes. I got another review talking about the charge shot feeling just the same. Either I up the damage or make a new mechanic.

As for the none of the keys work thingy. The game is not focused, I think you can tell if you press Space and the screen goes down.

[SHOOT TRIP DIE - DEMO]

super fun, i suck at it

nexketch responds:

[Peter's Quest]

spazgunk responds:

edit: we have added a skip tutorial button 👍

[Piece by Piece]

I've never had issues running a web game on my macbook, but this game has framerate issues and my other laptop wouldn't be able to fit the whole game on the screen. Also I have a feeling some parts of the game are lag dependent while others aren't because the game just starts off being as hard as possible, while still being possible. Sorry, but it's borderline unplayable for me. maybe resize the game by half

Edit: the window seems the same size, but it plays a lot smoother for some reason

YaenGames responds:

Hey, sorry that you had these problems when trying our game. In case you wanna try it again on your laptop, we made the screen smaller and there's also a fullscreen button in the bottom right corner.
