Exedor's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Flappy Champ 99]

if fwdSpeed <= 0.1():
speedChng == 0;
fwdSpeed == 0.1;
accel == 0.1

I got several negative speed items so I have a negative FWD speed and I'm going in reverse. There are no more pipes and I don't get hurt when I hit the ground. There should be a minimum fwd speed to avoid this, although, going too slow can make it boring. Maybe add a way to stop negative accel items if speed gets too low.

MrSymac responds:

I'll find a way to fix that.

[Alchemist Tower Defense]

I like this game, but I need a reset or something. In earlier levels, I saw the arrow to go to the next area, and I moved on. But, I still had areas not played. Now, I'm at "Level 5" and I've beaten all the areas. There are arrows to go to the next area, but they don't work because, I assume, there's no Level 6 yet. But, I can't go to back to previous areas, and there's no way to restart from the beginning, so I'm stuck on a level with no playable areas, making the game now unplayable. I don't want to have to clear my computer cache and lose other important things just to reset the game, tho auto-save is nice.

Suggestions & things:

- The not being able to move gems thing is ok. It's a strategy aspect. You CAN move them by combining, so plan your gem placement.

- The new inventory window is nice, and helpful for seeing all the upgrades at once. I can't use it since I can't play.

- The pop up windows may need to be set to a sidebar. There were a lot of popups for each transaction, and they often showed up right over where you need to place things. When the castle is in the center and the popup also pops up in the center, it covers your castle. So, you choose a new gem at the top (close popup) and then go to place a gem near the castle (close popup), click on the second gem to move & combine (close popup). It gets tedious, and if there are enemies approaching when you need a popup out of the way, the base can get damaged. So, an info sidebar outside of the playable area may be something to consider.

- Missing waypoint 1 was an issue on some levels; glad it's fixed.

- The levels with a thin path and mostly cost-10-to-remove blocks are rough. Often I couldn't afford to clear space for gem blocks before the enemies got too strong to kill with available space and gems. You had to be lucky and get a good mix of teal gems right away, or add a +gold upgrade right away; otherwise you lose fairly quickly. I did manage to beat it on Level 5, tho.

- Range 1 is sometimes too small. I've had gems not shoot a passing enemy, and I think it's because the range is too small to register a passing enemy til you upgrade a level or two and get increased range. A range upgrade add-on doesn't show any increase in the diameter of the range circle at low levels.

- The regeneration rates on some enemies make them invincible. Sometimes, I couldn't even get a green bar, much less noticeable damage in the life bar. And defeating them was out of the question. I'd just hope I had enough base life to absorb the hit.

- Make the instructions on the main screen replayable. Once they pass, you miss anything you didn't read.

- There are no instructions on how to get special gems. I did figure out that 1. they don't have to be positioned next to each other, as in the image, and 2. a "Craft" button shows up when you have the gems needed. I was never able to craft the higher gems (Diamond, Cat's Eye(?)), as the levels ended before I could store up enough gold or gems. Also, I couldn't combine anything higher than a level 5 gem for the same reason, and mostly was limited to level 4 gems. I gained a level 6 gem in a loot box once, which was the only way to achieve one.

- Loot boxes and Ice Blocks took a bit to figure out. It says to shoot fire at them, but there's no way to shoot anything. I eventually figured out to place a level 3 red gem or higher next to the block and hope the ice block would eventually thaw. Ice Blocks without a chest melted much faster (level 2 gem), but ones with a chest showed no signs of progress til they completely thawed. Maybe add cracks that grow in the ice to show progress?

Can't wait to play again.

WarMageDev responds:

Thanks for the long and useful feedback, Exedor!
I am really glad you like the game. :)
It is updated now. This bug that you described that causes the arrows that you can use to proceed to the next region is fixed now, please check it out.
Regarding the other issues I will handle those a bit later.

What difficulty setting did you play on?

Edit: I updated the game, please check out the version history in the description.

[Sethsworld Zombeh Land]

This game is not ready to be put up. It's not really a game. There's a timer, but no score. The zombies don't attack. you can let them stack up and blast away in the last few seconds- or don't. You can never fire a shot and still get a 'you win" after the timer ends.

Well... not quite. The zombies continue to come after the timer and and the "you win" pops up, and after about 10 seconds, they kill you. Also, rather than getting 1x score per kill, the score continues to add with each click after their head pops off, so you can get extra score. I got 2750.

Sethsworld responds:

Fixed It


Yeah the extra clicking, thats gonna be the backwards long jump of this game

NOW Its Fixed

[The CULTZONE Pureland RPG]

Don't use Shift. Don't use ctrl. They're system keys.

cultzone responds:

Really? Cooooool man..... we re implying this then in the next build, because it is a style more old school... thank you

[20 second CHALLENGE!]

After a few fails, once I figured how to play, I got 85 billion. Score: 85899357806. No auto-clicker. I know you didn't think I could do this.

BigScud responds:

Wow! That's awesome! Thanks for playing.

[THEY WANT YOUR COLOR]

You forgot to lock the space bar so it doesn't scroll the screen down.

Nah, still does it. There's a way to lock the game area. I don't know how to do it tho. Good music and looks interesting. Just needs that fixed first.

Mel responds:

works if you click onto screen i think. down key tho.... sorry man first game lol

[Galactic-Mission]

Well, you finally got it working, so I guess that's progress. But, it's bigger than my screen, so you might want to lower the size about 20-25%. Also, there are no instructions. I shoot a rock. I walk outside the circle. A counter starts and I die. :'(

Philplays responds:

ill fix that stuff now! if you dont mind you can play again with the tutorial!

[Fight and Flight]

This is good. I have a few suggestions, tho.

- The Throttle Up image blocks the view, hiding enemies and objects. Placing that on a layer on the back would be cool, but still allow for full viewing.

- At the end, there are replay and exit options that have to be clicked with the mouse. Making these selectable also with the Z and X buttons makes it easier to get back in the game quicker.

Good game. :)

trixelbit responds:

I appreciate the feedback! I'll add your suggestions in the next update!

[Midnight Dice]

So, basically, by the end, you have to get and keep at least one 1 and one 4, or you're disqualified. After getting both a 1 and a 4, whoever has the highest score at the end is the winner. Since there are no instructions, how close am I?

JinxSpell responds:

You're correct! I've played it so much, I forgot to include instructions. I'll add them now, thanks!
