Knuckstrike's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Reincarnation: AHE]

Great

It's really good, especially the graphics. But I think it's too short. I do like all the secrets and the halloween theme. By the way, I've written a small guide about how to get all the medals. The game walkthrough is in the game. There are 6 medals, worth a total of 65 points. Four of the medals are secret.
Here are all the medals, and how you can get them:

- Medal name - points you get by achieving it - How to achieve it

- Sleep through a fire drill - 10 points - Follow the walkthrough until the reincarny goes to bed and you see the dead kids. Then, set the reincarny's bed on fire with the candle.

- My chemical death - 25 points - Follow the walkthrough all the way to the end.

- Black lungs (secret) - 5 points - Use the cigarette on the purple demon.

- Trick or treat (secret) - 5 points - Play the game on halloween, or set your date of the computer to 31 october.

- Jack o demon (secret) - 10 points - Use a knife (found in the kitchen) and a lit candle (obtained by combining a cigarette and a candle, both found in the living room) on the pumpkin next to the front door of the house.

- Stoning (secret) - 10 points - When you start the game, don't ring the bell. Instead, click the arrow in the lower right corner to go to the screen with the kids. Pick up a rock from the pile of rocks to the right. Then, click it in your inventory and then click the vampire kid. The demon throws a rock to the kid. Repeat the rock throwing ten times.

Really good!

I thought this was another lame snake thing, but it's really good. The graphics are great too, and I liked the extra credits minigame. Also, the medals make it more addicting.

[Beat Soccer Fan]

Meh

It works fine, and the graphics are great, but it is really boring. To hit him once is quite fun, but since there's nothing more to this, it gets boring really quick. And since he says the same four things over and over, I was irritated in about a minute too. The only fun thing to do is to mash a,s,d,z and x really fast, the game becomes really wierd that way.

[Fishdom 2]

Good

A really decent puzzle game. I like the style, but I would like to see more interactivity between the fish and the objects. And a little bit smarter fish, because sometimes the fish ask for plants that stand next to them. I've seen a few of these kinds of puzzle games in other places, so not very original. But nonetheless it's a very fun time waster. Maybe you want to change the e-mail adress input, because you can enter a random e-mail adress, and still get the money. The only bug I've found is that the gem bonus game doesn't work for me, but since I don't know if it is a bug on my side, I won't subtract points for that.

Overall I found it too easy, and it took a little too long to get the money. But the game works fine, and the puzzles are simple, and fun.

[Narcolyxii II]

Don't like it

I know everybody says this, but there are too many glitches. Like when you get into fear for the first time. If you run away, you still stay in fear, while you are far away. Or like going through walls with your fist, meeting Varanoth without getting a medal, not showing the exp you get from a Narcolyxx, and a lot more. Also, I really don't like the slow down thing. It's okay to me to be slowed down a bit when you come to a Narcolyxx, but I don't like when I have to walk upwards for half a minute to get to the last boss. Especially because almost all of the backgrounds look the same. What I do like, is the story. I really like the Idea of ''aliens'' that poison you so you see all sorts of things that are not there.

Make better backgrounds, make it longer (not 10 minutes), and REALLY, REALLLY, REALLY take care of all the glitches. Only then it would be fun to me.

I like it

I like the simplicity of this game. But it's not great. The graphics can be way better, and I would like to have a top score instead of counting up the metres.

[Special Agent Bunnet]

Original!

An great and original game. I like the sounds, and the text boxes too. But I have a few points of improvement for you. The first is that it may be better if you made more of a story instead of ''stuck behind a truck'' and ''getting some coffee''. If you do that, it would be more of a game instead of a link of puzzles. Another point is that it's better if you say 10 seconds before the bomb detonates ''detonation in 10 seconds'' or something like that. That way I don't have to look at the timer often to know how much time I have left, and that makes it more exciting too. A third way to improve the game is to make the quality higher. Not only because it looks pretty, but mostly to make the buttons clearer. Sometimes, on fields with a lot of buttons (40 or so), buttons that are the same look slightly different, so you can think they are not the same. My last hint is to make a time bonus. I don't know if it shows the time you was busy with the bombs at the end because I was too slow to complete the level with the letters, but I would like to have a score depending on the time collapsed and the amount of times you failed to disarm a bomb within the time limit.

Except for these points, it is a great game, and I would like too see more variations of games of these sorts.

DavidXN responds:

All good thoughts! Thanks for leaving your commentary. At the end of the game, you're told your total time spent and can submit it to Mochi (and I'm frankly amazed that someone's already done it in about four minutes, because my own record's closer to five).

This game just leapt into my head this week and was a quick project, but I wonder if I could do another one with the same characters but multiple routes and clues to track down the villain, Carmen Sandiego-style...

Great!

I think this game is really great. The controls work and it's simple, happy, and fun.
