kekcsi's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Time Travel Survival]

The engine could use some improvements. It lags. It sometimes takes too many extra clicks to perform a simple action (pop up bag, take the item I just picked up, click object to use with...) The click areas are very small and the cursor changes randomly from arrow to hand and back.

In the game itself, cannot light up two pieces of wood, only three? At least a text should be popped up when trying to light it saying too few wood. No need for clues where preconditions are realistic and natural.

Otherwise the puzzle was fine, graphics also OK and made an entertaining game.

selfdefiant responds:

I'm thinking the lag is from the ads on here. I noticed this with another game. I scrolled down to move the ad out of view and the game sped up. This might be the case, I didn't notice any lag.

[The Escape of The Bird 1]

Very hard to control. The bird should slow down after a click much faster because this way one click has fatal consequences that the player cannot correct anymore, just watch the bird die, which is depressing.

The bird looks best as it animates but the graphical elements are of diverse styles. Make sure to keep the semitransparency of the edges to prevent that zigzag look. You cannot completely remove background color from a sprite, use ones that never had opaque backgrounds. The sky background also has traces of lossy compression. Even free paint progs can do the trick, just use them with caution.

ThiagoSheckler responds:

Thank you for the feedback, I'm trying to improve as much as possible for the next update, this feedback is very important, this is the second game I'm working , I'm working to bring a much cleaner version in the next update thank you very much..

[oh my cat!]

I always click outside the game area or even on the pause button. They are just too close to the point I must click to get the coins, this adds unfair hardness to the controls. Good artwork and concept.

elp3rr0 responds:

thanks for the review.

you may use space key to jump, or press anywhere on the screen its will work.

[Hunger Hidden Numbers]

Good art but the numbers weren't really hidden. I know this game is about art but your quiz games were more fun. I felt smart playing those. And now I got medals for free (at each level in advance?) Anyway, thank you. Keep up spreading culture.

Munguia responds:

Thanks for comment and play, this is not a quiz game its other type, this is not fun is about a sad reallity, its other kind of material, change of subject time to time makes me smartest, but don worry i still have material to produce more quiz art parodies, i just love to do what i want,

[Milk Round]

It's unfair if cats overlap milk. Instead of lagging, I would prefer some crash animation when I go offroad. Mouse pointer could have been hidden for better overall look.

The concept is simple and clear, no need for instructions, I like it.

Please double check the dimensions because NG tends to reset them to 640 by 480 whenever you upload an update. Embed your fonts because text looks a little off-center and cropped on my computer.

Acroy responds:

Thank you for your response. I appreciate all the feedback and will take this into account during the next project, thanks.

[Day Of Escape]

I didn't understand the combination - I just tried to combine everything. The inventory was hard to handle, items stuck in the hand, not willing to combine. First I didn't notice I can turn around. I did't like the scrolling feature, it was so unnecessary. Most of the screen being left empty, objects could have been drawn larger for a better overall look. Background music was OK. No puzzles. Somehow the game was still entertaining. Thanks for the points!

Thanks for the review!

[Missile Defense]

This one needs a power plant to run at an acceptable frame rate. What does it compute? Live 3D rendering? Why?

rvh86 responds:

You're absolutely right, it's quite heavy due to the 3D planets, turrets and explosions. It works quite well on my 4 year old crappy laptop though. You can turn off some effects in the options menu for a better performance.

[Ucogi - Solitaire Quest]

This variant of Solitaire is so boring that no boobs are big enough to make me enjoy it. Am I gay?

Veinom responds:

it's just not a game for you. You ever actually played any exciting versions of solitaire?

[Push Out Circles]

Very good game idea, really innovative. It just looks bad. Try to make contrasts with those colors instead of just randomly picking them. Fading and scrolling effects would also be nice to have.

Tapir responds:

Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm being depressed for my weak art ability and taste for a long time.
How to make good contrasts?
