saomuel's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[.Loneliness.]

The guy's wife died. Then I pressed left until the guy killed himself to be with her.

I'll not wander in the philosophical/psicological matter of the story, everyone thinks the way he/she wants, but this can be barely called "game". It's an interactive movie, when some part of the animation is controlled by the used.

Also, I found pretty "forced" some elements of the story - from the church to the cemetery, the first-meet place was conviniently placed there (like "Hey, I'm a important place to this couple story and I came here so Walter can pass through me and add some more sadness to the story").

The music is nice, I'm giving one star for it.

[Dead Zed 2]

It reminds me the Rebuild series, which is also too awesome.
It's the same idea: defend, rescue, scavenge, survive through the days. but's a shooter.

5/5

[no-one has to die.]

There's a too much simple gameplay, but the story makes this great!

[Don't Escape]

Jetz72 said it all.
I'm just dropping the stars.

[Teddys Excellent Adventure]

" I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it. "

[Dead Pixel]

This game had an extra difficulty for me: daltonic.
I deserve an extra medal, right? xD

Well, this is not "OMG THIS IS DA GAME MAN", but it lasted for the time it kept me entertained, só it's ok.

And thanks, thanks and thanks for this not being a screamer.
If you had put a screamer on this, I would hate you till the end of my days.

[Junior vs. Senior]

Well, like other people said, this game surely lacks originality. Games about popping blocks are old, like the "Totem Destroyer" series. It's the same style, but with another skin.

BUT

I guess this deserve some credit because the skin itself is good. I really liked the idea of "papa wants to sleep and kiddo won't let him", I actually found cute the bouncing and the laughing at the end of each stage. Also, the ingame music is awesome and gives the game the aura of innocent fun between son and dad.

Also, it's more levels of the block popping we always liked, so why not?

So, I guess it deserves a chance.
Also, this style of game may be new to some people, and it's a fun and cute way to introduce them.

[Johnny Upgrade]

Nothing much to add, people already said it.
Just passing by to drop you 5 stars.

[Grey Story]

I didn't got it, but still a good game.

I didn't understood the story or the ending.
People already said me when reviewing a story I wrote that, even if I can understand the connecting lines of the story and understanding the whole picture, I didn't was able to put these elements on the story to make it clear for who is reading. I think the same happens in this game. The story may do have a point, but is a little obscure for some players, including me.

By the way, the game is still great, and the music gives a nice atmosphere.

I don't know if is just me, but the game was a little laggy, especially on the jumps or when the character's shadow trail got bigger...

Anyway, I liked it. =)

[Nyan Cat: Lost in Space]

Personal opinion, but...

...I had more fun with this than with the NC Fly.

I liked this game is not just an "avoider", the game play is more active and the many modes that powerups brings makes the game more dynamic.

And the cat giving quotes all the time is a nice detail =)
