FutureCopLGF's game Reviews on Newgrounds

["...Abide With Me"]

This one hit really close to home: the pregnant pauses, the memory problems, the two-sided dialogue, the family dynamics, all of it done in incredibly clever ways through the game mechanics. It was very depressing for me to revisit this so shortly after having to go through it in real life, but I won't hold that against the game, and will instead applaud it for doing what I feel was an accurate and deep representation of a real experience that many families go through. Both acts were wonderful, with the second act being so incredibly meta and powerfully told in the only way a game could tell the story.

[Marble Trap]

Solid marble game! Loved going through all of the courses as the controls felt really tight and satisfying to navigate with. The only obstacle I really had difficulty with was the cannons: sometimes they were just a bit too random to play around which caused some annoyance (I eventually noticed the smoke, but it's a bit too subtle to work with). All in all, I had a good time.

[Life is Snot]

A little confusing to get into: the colors and bizarre style really overwhelm you and the mechanics take some time to grasp. But once you get going, it's a really unique fusion of multiple mechanics that I really enjoyed going through! Planning your run by dealing with the aging mechanic providing certain powers at certain ages was very cool.

[ANIMEMOS]

A really crazy and fun warioware style game! It has a really charming and bizarre style to it that made it really amusing to play through. Loved the little touches like how the HUD builds itself and shows you going back and forth between stages, along with all the wacky sounds. Would love to see even more minigames in this!

[Joint'd]

Very nice puzzle game with great ambiance! A little bit confusing at first to get into, but it's fun and forgiving to figure out how it all comes together.

[Ghost'n Brothers]

A nice little puzzler all-around! The tutorial was a little confusing for me, but I got the hang of it eventually and got pretty far. Could maybe change up some of the art elements to make it more obvious: for example, why do the walls kill you when the spikes are on top, not on the side, why do pots not stop you when they take up a tile (consider using something like moss if you just want to pep up the floor), why can't you go backwards in the teleport pots, etc. Also, the game was pretty laggy and glitchy for me: the 'switch ghost' kept freezing up on levels for me, making some situations unwinnable.

Hi!
Thank you for your comment! ;-)
- Normally, spikes all around the scene kill you.
- Some pots are parts of the background, so they can't stop you...it's maybe confusing...
- Teleport pots are one-way. But it's a good idea to make two-way pots

- Flash games in web browsers are often slower than the mobile versions. Because of the number of layers, and animations. You can't take advantage of all animated things in the game with the flash version. If you want to test it on iOS send me a private message to get a PROMO code to download the game for free on the appstore!

[Straight Outta Pixels]

I love me some puns and I do enjoy how crazy and funny this game gets with the concept; had a lot of laughs and loved all the touches to the character design and sound clips. The gameplay suffers a lot from the dodgy collision and physics engine, however, which was a bummer.

[NEAR DEADline]

A charming little game with great heart to it in the music and art! Had some difficulty with the keyboard controls: something about them was really laggy it seemed; once I switched to a gamepad it worked a lot better.

[The Monotony of Carrots]

A cute little game that surprised me with its twist, but I feel like it didn't capitalize on it enough as it was over as soon as it started. I understand it is a game jam game, though, so I don't want to be too harsh or anything: take it as a compliment that I wanted more cuz it really grabbed me!

DavidMarchand responds:

Don't sweat it, thanks for the compliment!

[Cactu-Sama]

Very cool and cute puzzler! A little confusing at the start to grasp the mechanics, but once it got going I had to see it all the way through. Liked that the music changed it up every few levels or so; was a pleasure to hear. I felt like the difficult curve was a little out-of-order and the puzzle mechanics weren't as fully explored as they could be, but I still had fun going through it and look forward to more!

Diemorth responds:

Your words were kind, I really want to change the order of some levels, probably will do it today. I would like to implement more of these wonderful mechanics being suggested, I think this will bring an even more enjoyable experience! Thanks for playing! :>
