DreamEater's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shrimpy's Adventure V 1.2]

decent submission, needs work though :p

I really love platform games like this one, and although I really enjoyed some elements of this game; some things could have used a bit more attention.

I liked that you added in a shooting feature, but it didn't seem to do much in the grand scheme of things. I really enjoyed the classic "breakaway" platforms that you placed around the levels, and the jump/ backflip feature was pretty well done.

Things to take a second look at:
- I had a LOT of trouble with getting stuck almost everytime I jumped somewhere
- Although the "press C to Nudge" feature was cool; it just seemed like a way of coping with an error, rather than fixing it
- Had trouble figuring out which way was forward, arrows or some hints would be nice

Overall; not bad but could use some bug fixes

Thanks! The reason I added the "C" to escape thing was because I made the platform interactions in an unusual way, but didn't figure that out until after I submited this. I The thing about getting stuck when you jump was because of the flip, but I know how to fix that too now. I'll be sure to fix this stuff in later installments for sure. Thanks for the review!

[Inspect and Shoot]

Cool, but there's not much to see here :[

I really enjoyed this submission for what it does offer, however I think you could have done a bit more with this idea. I really enjoyed the first menu with the side view of the gun; controlling it with the arrow keys was a fun, interesting, and new experience.

Suggestions for future reference:
- I really would have liked more guns to check out/ different shooting ranges
- The gun's firing rate could be a bit faster
- I didn't really get the feeling like I was shooting something, as much as clicking the target to punch holes in it.
- The gunshot samples were okay, but not the most convincing
- The arrows/ buttons/ menu looked rather cheesy (try to give your submissions a slightly more professional looking navigation menu)

Overall this is a decent submission, but it could use a few additions/ some polishing up.

Great work nonetheless :)

[The Jersey Shore Situation]

Decent work.

But definitely not my favorite submission on Newgrounds.

The gameplay was pretty good, the controls worked nicely, and the characters looked alright. I also really liked that you incorporated achievements into this submission, and placed cutscenes between the 3 different rounds.

Friendly suggestions:
- Everyone loves achievements but these all seem really simple, and there are very few to get
- Cool fighting sequences and all, but I really would have liked a couple more controls (Click, hold, release, spacebar x 100 got kinda boring :( )
- The character designs were decent, but definitely not the best I've seen

Overall this game is okay, but needs a few more things imo.
Great Effort!

No problem, your music is sick!

[Creepy Ranger TD]

This game is awesome!

Thank you so much for choosing to use our music in one of your awesome games! You've even managed to get my whole family, and quite a few of my friends hooked on this game; none of them have Newgrounds accounts unfortunately, but I give you mad props on their behalf!

Thanks again for using our music!
and I hope you can find my music helpful in the development of your future submissions x3

[Galactic Miner]

Great Game! :D

And full upgrades are totally worth it!

I loved many aspects of this game. The gems were really cool (would have liked to see more though), The asteroids were assholes, handling upgrade really made a difference!
The music used for this game was also perfect nice repetitive House beat for flying endlessly through space.
I had a lot of fun with this game, great work! :D

I would love to see a sequel with more enemies, gems, and upgrades
Completely addicting, great work!

[Missiles are raining!]

Pretty awesome game!

This is actually really sweet!
I loved the intro animation, and the gameplay is pretty smooth :D
Also loved the upgrades and stuff.
I didn't love the music though x.x kind of annoying and repetitive.
Try something a little more fast-paced and with a little more energy?

all and all this game is really fun and kinda unique!
Great Effort!

[Time In Three Formats]

Interesting test

I don't think this should necessarily be blammed though; It's functional and cool :D
I would love to see a version of this with a backround that changes colors and some music! :D
Maybe you should make a "Strawberry Clock" Clock and submit it to see how it does? :D

Cool Beans!

The background does change colour, just very slowly depending upon the time.
Music and possibly a design on the background may be added in the future, depends how much exposure this gets I guess :p

Thanks for the review :)

[Shape Defence]

Music By WaterFlame = Win

Love the look and functionality of everything in this submission, The Sound effects are badass, and the music... well the music was perfect; IMO completely creates a fast-paced Monster-of-a-game!
Basically "Asteroids 2011"

I cannot wait to see more work from you in the future sir! :D

51lver responds:

The music won me over, as soon as I heard it I knew it had to be in the game!
Thank you very much for this great review, I'll keep you posted on any future stuff I produce :)

[Beijing Mahjong]

Cool Game!
