csdthegreat's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Knightmare]

It feels a little empty...

From what I can tell, the gameplay never changes. Of course, since shop items are a bit too expensive and your character doesn't have much HP, I haven't seen more than a quarter of the levels yet... :/ It seems like it should move along a little faster. It stays almost the same from level to level, with the addition of a new bat type every so often. It would be great with a little more gold, a little more activity (Maybe there could be something to jump over, like rats?), and a few bosses. Good graphics, by the way. :) 5/10, 3/5. Pretty fun for a first submission.

[Danmaku Legend II]

... Perfect...

I just love everything about this game. I've been waiting for a new online bullet hell game for so long! It's really boring to only have a few decent shmups available to you... I'm too lazy to write a full review, but I'll say this has kept me pretty busy for the last few days. I'll probably stay busy at LEAST until Frantic 2 is released. 5/5, 10/10, favorite.

I'm scared of not praising this enough... D:

This is one of the best games I've played in a long, long time. The physics are excellent, the puzzles are intelligent, and it's incredibly addictive. Great concept, too... not used very often. This game doesn't deserve anything less than a 5/5 and a 10/10. Favorited.

I tried out the (excellent) editor. Here's my first level: 19BDE10B2AB3AB2AB4AB16AB2AB3AB2AB4AB1 6AB2AB3AB2AB4AB4AM3AM6AMB2AB3AB2AB4AB 4AB3AB6A2B2AB3AB2AB2AEAD16AB2AB3AB2AB 19A2MB2AB3AB2AB20AMB2AB3AB2AB20AMB2AB 3AB2AB20AMB2AB27AMB2AB18AB8AMB2ABC26A MB2ABEC25AMB2A3BAB2AB21AB2AB3AB2AB20A 2B2AB3AB2IB21IB2A3BA26BAX2BCDACBA2B2A B10ACEJCIAEFABCBF2B9AC2BCDACDA3BFBC9A CEJCJA2EABC2ABD9ACDBCHAEHA2B2ABE9ACDB CHAEDA2B2ABF9ACEJDCADHABCBFBG9AC2BDCA 2CA2CAFBH9AC2BGDADFA2B2ABJC2B6ABCBEFA EHACB2AC10A2CBGDAEHACB2ACB2CB6A2CBFEA EHACB2ACD2CB6AC2BEFADFA2B2ABICAB6A3BF EADFA2B2A3CAB6ABDB2HAEHA2B2ACE9ACDBCF A2DACB2ACF9ABEJDFADHA2BAFCG9ACEJHFAEB ACJ2ACH9AC2BH2ACEA2B2ACI9ABCBH2ADEA2B 2ACJCIB6ACX08034026010011XHard##is#it #@csdthegreat

Hope people like it/don't mind how much space it'll take up. I put a LOT of effort into it. I assume there will be a sequel and a user level pack...

[Ultimate Labyrinth 2]

Good so far...

Was level 2 edited? ... and Midnight Mission? Level 2 is too easy now, and MM is too hard...

Also, Lucky is a terrible level. Well, pretty much any level with 500 portals is bad. I almost decided not to come back to the game after spending too many minutes on Lucky.

Anyway, I like how it turned out and I hope people like my levels. 4/5, 8/10, favorite.

Can't beat Challenge 1... beat the others first...

Zoranan responds:

I know, the first challenge is hard. Ive only beat it once. I didn't edit any of the levels.

[Tank Search]

2117 seconds of my life... gone...

I had better luck when I looked away and clicked without thinking. The difficulty was a little too mixed up, which was pretty annoying. Plus, some of the images made it nearly impossible to find the tank because of the quality. It was a challenge I was determined to complete, and I did it, although I was bored and annoyed by level 25. If you make another, order the levels by difficulty, use high quality images, and include SOME sort of hint button. It would also be nice to see something new for once. Maybe an upside down image, or one that shakes. Even an animation! Anyway, 3/5, 5/10. Improve the concept, and I'll happily play Tank Search 2.

Oh yeah... what about achievements? Maybe you could find certain other things to get trophies...

[StarShine 2]

Loved the original!

I was happy to see this on Newgrounds today. I thought it needed a sequel for a long time, and here it is, better than ever! The new star types are awesome! :D Great levels, too, plus an editor that's extremely easy and fun! It's got the same kind of peaceful music to ease the frustration as well! If anyone wants to see my first level, load ID 111168. 5/5, 10/10, favorite.

[Frantic]

Shmup heaven.

I just BARELY made it through the last level! :D Well, maybe not barely, but... yeah. I really have no complaints here. It's the perfect shmup. This is the right way to do bullet hell. The game was challenging and the boss patterns were amazing... some of the patterns, like the "bullet tunnel" thing, were things I'd drawn on paper, hoping that someone would work them into a shmup. The only things I'd really like to see are more interesting upgrades and scrolling backgrounds (Like Raiden's. You know how there are train tracks below with trains shooting at you, in addition to aircraft? How there are boats shooting when you reach water? That's the kind of thing I'd like to see).

By the way, here's an interesting thing I came up with: A boss pattern where there are two or more tunnels and a few bullets in front of each. The one(s) with the least bullets in front is a dead end. ... and to all the people ZERO BOMBING this for being too hard: STOP IT. This is GREAT. It's INTELLIGENT. I'm NOT SLEEPING THROUGH IT. Besides, the hitbox is small enough that you should at LEAST be able to get to level 5 with little shmup experience.

5/5, 10/10, favorite. I look forward to the next ten sequels.

[Distopix]

I played another game like this on here...

+ Fun, simple, and addictive.

+ Simple graphics worked well.

+ Music didn't make me claw out my eardrums.

+ Great expansion on the multi-perspective dodger/shooter concept.

- The random generation sometimes made walls appear, so I had no choice but to lose a life.

- Would be better if it was synced to the music. It always immerses the player a little more...

Awesome avoid game! Tweak it a little more, make a longer game out of it, and you could have a truly amazing avoider. Gave it a five to bring the score up more than a four would (3.71 was a bit too low), the big gold review number up there is still a 7/10 (Would've been a 7.5 if I had the choice), and it's in my favorites.

Uchiharr responds:

Thank you!
It's not a perfect game, but I made my best to keep it simple and good.
About the random generation, it is something that will involve a little luck. I didn't want players to always complete the game with 5 lives after some practice, if you want to get a high score you will need practice, and a little luck.
It's just a design option, but people don't really seem to like it. I will try to work on something else on new games.
Thanks for the review!

[:the game:]

Will be replayed again and again.

It's simple and funny. What more can I say? There's nothing about this game people can't love. I don't download many games, but I couldn't resist with this one. It's just too good! In my opinion, good enough for a 5, 10, and a favorite. Some of the jokes were so true...

I'll bet a lot of people will make tribute games. The possibilities here are endless.

[Mouse-Eaters 2]

Pretty fun...

+ Fun levels, well designed.

+ Right click proof.

+ Very playable.

+ Saves your progress.

- Ads EVERY TIME YOU LOSE. Yes, they annoy me.

- Level select screen has problems. (Such as, as soon as you select a certain level, you're eaten.

- Is level 21 broken?

Overall: 3/5, 6/10. Favorited. Not a bad game.

chesster415 responds:

The ads may be too punishing, I've taken them out for Newgrounds users, sorry about the being eaten just out of the level select thing, Level 21 was broken sorry about that, I've fixed it now.
