FutureCopLGF's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Grand Grimoire Chronicles - Episode 3]

Pretty cool game; love the graphical/sound style to it. Has an overall crisp and professional feel to it, along with atmosphere. The game can drag at times, however, due to a lot of empty and unused space at times. For example, it felt like there could've just been the one screen for the docks instead of having all the other screens with boats. Just felt like everything before the island proper was just busywork without much payoff. The island was proper spooky and cool, though, so kudos.

Move over, God of War 3, there's a new sheriff in town.

Really trippy and creative concept! Loved the way you need to navigate combat scenarios by making the best of your glitched-up controls, and thought the art and sound matched the theme wonderfully. The game does kind of toe the line between 'intentionally glitchy' and just 'glitchy' at times though, since it can be a clunky in ways that I don't think were intended. Still, kudos for the effort: we need more weird things like this!

[Tanks for the Memories]

Man, this took me back to the ol' Alone in the Dark and Resident Evil days. Pretty funny game and interesting execution. Actually pretty spooky at times (but thats maybe me being a sissy). Loved the variety of camera angles that were utilized. Mechanics were a bit confusing at times, such as not being able to tell what key you picked up, and how the animal keys appear in a random spot when you kill the zombie tanks.

[Hunted in the Winter]

Very impressive for a game jam game, in my opinion! Loved the stealth/survival mechanics, especially when it came to the footprints: you put MGS to shame in a week! It is a little clunky in some respects (can keep slamming the door on guards that come to your shack) and it doesn't go anywhere at the moment, but its a cool core that I should see being worked off of to make a whole story.

[The Warrior with the cursed sword]

Amazing concept and delivery! I was worried initially that this would be a rehash of the Ranger/Wizard, but this one brought an awesome new concept forward of a warrior being controlled by a curse and tied the game mechanics to the story in a creative way (and it has a story now too!) Love how it ramps up with the inclusion of good/evil paths as civilians get in the way!

[Arcandies]

Solid puzzler! I thought the game had some good mechanics and introduced them with some great levels to play through. All in all, I had a great time. The only thing missing for me would be some extra polish/pizzaz, such as making winning a level a bit more exciting with more fanfare. Also, maybe present the candy theme a bit more by making the graphics a bit less grim and stony, or by having every level award a piece of candy as part of the victory? It is pretty cool as-is, though, so no real problems.

Diemorth responds:

Thanks for the compliments. These are really good suggestions, this will be useful to build future projects or if I change this one again, I am very grateful for the feedback, thank you for playing! ^-^

[Midnight Sun]

A goofy, fun little game! Loved the explosive VFX for delivering presents since it gave such a feeling of satisfaction to finding every chillren. Game does get a little monotonous towards the end without much variation, but it doesn't overstay and has solid mechanics so I can't complain that much. Hopefully those chillren don't use those gifts irresponsibly, haha!

[every wall]

Sweet game! Very creative and nailed it in concept and execution. A little bit confusing at parts, such as with the sit and rest which I thought would involve me not inputting at all, but it all worked out in the end as impatience took over. Wish there were more games like this where the story is told with hand-in-hand with game mechanics to give the player the intended feelings the twist brings, instead of solely relying on spoken word as many 'walking simulators' do.

And I ain't no pig with a long snout as I read it all out loud!
