NekoMika's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Neon Run!]

Not a bad game but not great either. There is definitely room for improvement to make this game better while still keeping it difficult.

As far as the menu interface goes, it seems alright. I kind of wish you could use keyboard keys to navigate as well but that is just an opinion I have.

The gameplay itself is alright. Takes a moment to figure out how to play the game. When you pick up a slow-down object, the music should also slow down for a bit. When you pick up the shield, it should just provide a green outline to the vehicle rather than making a bubble that makes it somewhat difficult to see what is up ahead. I understand the shield protects but there were a couple of times I accidentally hit an obstacle and the game ended because I was not able to fully see what was ahead as well.

The music is alright. Something I think you should do so it is easier on people is have it added under Credits and Info rather than description as not everyone will take the time to read those. You need to go to the game's project files > Credits and Roles > then add the 1-6 digit number of the song link and it will add it under Credits and Info for you. Hope that helps a little.

Overall, I feel the gameplay needs to be changed a bit, and the Credits and Info could be updated to have the song links but otherwise, not a bad game. It is fun but takes a few minutes to get into.

stuthemoo responds:

Thanks for your feedback :) I've moved the artists to the credits.

[Dedicated to PhantomArcade]

An artistic game with that will stand the test of time itself. It will be looked upon in the future as one of the greatest achievements from 2018. You truly did outdo yourself with this mind-boggling masterpiece. Will this ever get a sequel?

ninjamuffin99 responds:

its getting a sequel but im only doing it for the money its coming to the nintendo switch

[Do An Ollie!!]

A minimal button type game, not much to do aside from seeing how long you can ollie without messing up, what's the song name by the way?

beepyeah responds:

The song is called 'theme from do an ollie'

[Killer King: Classic]

Not a bad concept and the 3d style perspective is pretty good. There is one major flaw I found playing this game though. The flaw being that any time you press the spacebar, it scrolls down the web page rather than just affecting the game itself.

karpopper responds:

ah yes, thats a very simple fix, I take it out while im programming because it prevents me from opening the developer tools using the keyboard, and I often forget to put it back in, thanks for letting me know!

edit: it should be fixed now.

[Hide and Seek]

Not a bad game but there are a couple of issues with this game as it is:

The game itself only takes up about half the screen with instructions taking up the other half of the screen.

The instructions cut off and aside from walking around and pressing E, it is not exactly made clear on how to proceed with the game. I clicked E on a character but was not able to click E on anything else.

Not a bad concept, but needs some fixing up to play properly.

PupiProphet responds:

Thank you for your feedback! Right now the game is a demo for a Game Jam purpose, but we're planning to keep working on it and add more features as well as fixing the current issues. We appreciate you took the time to play it!

[CarSIMULATOR]

Simplistic and not much to review. Should add that the car is controlled using the A and D keys. If you ever update this game, should add instructions and music to it. :)

CristiBala24 responds:

Thanks for the feedback ^_^.

[Christmas ADVENTure 2018]

This is nice and relaxing. Would be nice if you could interact with the other Tankman who is wandering around and hear Holiday quotes from them and positive encouragement. I take it that each new present will be added late into the day and does not get auto-added each morning right?

Either way, I look forward to getting all the medals. If one were to miss playing this for a day, will it be possible to get the medal the next day?

BrandyBuizel responds:

We're looking to insert new content like this as the month goes by in addition to new presents popping up!

[Ruya DEMO]

Relaxing and fun puzzle game. The graphics remind me of early 2008 flash games. The audio is not distracting and helps one feel at ease while trying to solve the puzzles for this game. I hope the full game is pretty fun as well.

I liked how clicking on Ruya at the main screen showed her reacting to being clicked on in a variety of ways. :D

MiracleTea responds:

Thanks so much! Glad you liked the little animations of Ruya reacting. :D

[ThePowerOfWhat]

Fascinating game and very difficult at times. This game is meta but interesting in that you can use Music and 1-UP items to help resolve problems that prevent the stage from being completed.

The graphics are very retro and remind me of the GameBoy Pocket for some reason.

The audio and sound effects remind me of even older gaming consoles.

Overall, fun game. Did not run into any bugs or glitches so that's good. :D

joqlepecheur responds:

Well you have previous people to thanks I fixed one or two things thanks to that ;)
Main issue is the hitbox of foes that is a bit unpredictable: when you jump on them sometimes you die a bit unfairly

[Luigi's One Punch]

Not a bad minigame type of thing, the medals were incredibly easy to get though.

PoliuxDimension responds:

This was my first published mini game, so I made it simple and small as an experiment.
