goldenPiGames's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Solace Inc. Classic]

it's, cute? i guess? but every single level is the same slog of running around in circles and watching as your employees kill things and your computer gradually lags more and more. you might jump repeatedly to go faster and maybe relieve the tedium but then you'll accidentally select the first option in the upgrades because the buttons are the same and the menu appears without warning. not like your upgrade choice matters because it's mind-numbingly easy nothing changes, unless you pick a support for your first recruit

[PINFALL, Classic Edition]

NIce art and design, except it's a foddian and foddians are unenjoyable and shouldn't be made as such

[Elephant Rave 2]

welcome back elephant senpai

[Acro-bot]

what the hag is this control scheme? what does the meter mean?

[Space Vikings Demo]

Unpolished, questionably designed, and does absolutely nothing to distinguish itself from the 20 other roguelikes that got published here last month.

[Tangled Slug]

you really should be able to rewind by pressing back the way you came

[Paraiso]

Very cool. Except for the wall jumping controls.

[MAGE-KESHIFT]

I'm iffy on the charging mechanic. There's already enough interesting things between the bosses themselves, deciding which way to move, correctly timing your clicks, and all that, that I don't think charging is really necessary or fits in with the rest of the game. It's pretty frustrating when King Midas randomly decides to use the burrowing hands attack right before I launchm or when I fail to grab the cubes so we just stand there awkwardly for two seconds because he decided to be polite and let me charge this time. Of course I might just be salty that I couldn't beat King Midas. Might I suggest that he move a bit towards the center before doing the barrier.

I'm not the biggest fan of shmups in general. This one feels very cluttered visually, especially with the player's ship, player's bullets, and enemy bullets all being yellow.

[Odd Verdure]

Could really do with a real level select, for people like me who want to get all the flies but don't care about the speedrun times

It was something that was on the list of things to do, but we didn't have time to get it in. Thanks for playing!
