Mrccbirdguy's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Stranded on a Raft]

I really wanted to like this game. The music and graphics are great. The gameplay mechanics are broken as hell.

HOW DO YOU ATTACK THE FROGS ATTACKING YOU???

I've figured out how to build most of the items but yeah, not having the ability to fight back doesn't bode well for me.

RinexusGames responds:

Hello! You can craft a stone machete to fight off the frogs, the recipe for it is in the crafting menu.

[Super Hunted 2]

Two steps forward, one step back.

Okay, On my last review, I mentioned that you had essentially used the Stencyl platformer engine to make your game, you still have. Your player character is too big or their hit box isn't functioning right. He tends to go through the floor after jumps and the platforming isn't difficult, it's glitchy.

The boss battle... No. I don't know what to say about it. The engine you made the game on obviously didn't support any kind of combat or attacks other than jumping.
There's no explanation of what to do or why you're doing it. It's a giant metal guy chasing a plane and you can stand on his head.

The music was good. If you made it on your own, great! if not, you need to credit it.

Again, Check out the game design forums, read some books on game design and keep at it.

I did make all of the music. I used a website called Beepbox.co, but do to the sheer open endedness of the site as well as the difficult and complicated compositions I made, I'm proud to say that is by far the best part of the game. I plan on uploading the soundtrack. Thank you for reviewing. I just want to get better and really appreciate it.

[Super Hunted]

First off, The engine you used for this is the Stencyl engine which in the past other game makers essentially copied, modified the levels a little bit and called it their own. You at least modified the sprites and gave it a basic storyline.

Secondly, A complete lack of sound made the game dull. Even jump sound effects would have been nice.

Lastly, the difficulty and plot. There wasn't any. The character's hit box is so big that it's really difficult to fall down holes, there's no enemies and I didn't care about the plot.

Seeing as how it's your first game, I'd suggest learning more about actual game design, plot and even working on character design.

Good luck!

2Mickennxtre68 responds:

The plot is a mixed bag for me. Looking back on this game I'm proud of what I accomplished but it's very artsy and hard to follow. It also feeds into a much bigger narrative of fanfics and webtoons that I'm not gonna get into.
Thanks for the feedback.

[Don't save the princess]

It's good. The humor is funny, but it Lags so bad that the game is virtually unplayable. I don't know why though, It shouldn't lag this bad.

pro100fartovuy responds:

I will fix it.

[Snowman: Christmas Challenge]

This game just doesn't work. It makes no sense and the rules are just vague.

abyssgames responds:

What you mean saying "just doesn't work"?

[The Price]

Excellent music and good graphics. I liked the concept as well. One suggestion though. You have a weird control issue. when you have text like signs, you have to mouse click and then hit space bar each time. This gets very difficult in the rat areas.
Other than that, Great job!

theCodeCat responds:

Thanks for the feedback! Regarding the sign-bug, it sounds like your game is losing focus when the dialogue box comes up, which is kind of strange since it doesn't occur for me.

If you don't mind, could you PM me which flash player version and OS you are using?
I was planning on posting a patch later today and would like to fix that bug while I'm at it.

[Dark II]

Ok. After playing, I feel that there was a great deal holding this game back. the two biggest issues were plot and gameplay.

Graphically, it's alright. But the constantly slow flash of darkness is just plain annoying. There were a few spots where things killed the character that didn't quite make sense. Controls were alright.
(Spoilers)-I wanted to make this a little fun...
Plot was something that just bothered me from the start.
I saw that you were going for something poetic, a real work of art
That's all fine and good but your poetry was a wreck,
You may want to invest in some sort of spellcheck.
The plot of his wife killing the baby made no frigging sense
she had an alibi that she was with her boyfriend, not at the apartment.
Also a motive was something you overlooked,
You can learn about this in any ol' mystery book.
The babysitter was also a secondary witness to the fathers crime
There is no doubt that they would have testified so the father would get maximum time (That one was hard)

I feel with a bit more practice and some more time spent,
You can make a game on here that rates 100%
Best of luck-Mrccbirdguy

JackAstral responds:

Ahaha fair enough- thanks for giving it a go anyway!

[Land of Enki 2]

Excellent game! Great graphics and good sound. very fun to play!

TheEnkian responds:

Thank you!

[Lost Child]

This was pretty good. Excellent graphics, good discordant sound which is perfect for this type of game and simple enough concept. I must agree with Acemcgunner who says that it needs a backstory. Anything to tell what's happening in game would be awesome. Good luck making more games!

SrRodilla responds:

Thanks you very much ;)

The game don´t have story, because i want that the game give feelings, but is true that this not is incompatible with a story. In my next game I will put more emphasis in this point.
