Duskitten's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[YOLK -1]

Pretty fun platformer, Unsure if the ending i had was intentional, but I think my only critique is to be careful with the sliding on the corners of platforms, cause it's painful, but good job otherwise!

ZahirPizZA responds:

yes, the ending is intentional, I plan to put something else later, I'll try to correct the corners :)

[Orange Stickman Demo]

highly recommend removing the PS1 starting noise as it's copyrighted - Other than that, It's pretty neat, I think perhaps make the jumping much less linear, as it was near impossible to make most jumps

RomanFifteen responds:

I didn't know it was copyrighted but I removed it in the final version

[Pixel-Panic]

Hella fun, music is fire, simple to learn, good zone out game, once you get into a groove, it's genuinely enjoyable

IdeasPerSecond responds:

I'm glad you enjoyed playing it!

[The Tower: Mercenaries Mode]

Pretty neat game, could use a bit of polish to it, but otherwise pretty solid mechanically

FoolProductions responds:

Thanks for comment! I'll try to improve it's flaws in the next one

[BAWDOF (0.1)]

It's pretty neat, I think the bullets should move a tad slower, as currently most of the time I'm dying from being able to not see them cause they being bouncing too fast or maybe some trail so you can follow better

ValGames responds:

Maybe i try to make bullets slower, but if i see that it ruins the gameplay (in my opinion obviously) maybe i just add a trail.
Ty for sharing your opinion <3

[Glitchy Swim]

I think the music is alright, but focusing on the game, I think that the sprite work could be a bit more contrast-y, as it's hard to see the items in your path at times (the grass is barely visible) and the spacing could use a bit of work cause there's times where it's legitimately impossible to avoid things.

lajbel responds:

Thanks for the support! I change the colors and the spacing a bit

[Mad Pirate Skeleton Bomber]

Pretty nice, love the art work, my only issues are 2 things, first, it's a pain to predict where the bombs will go, so perhaps making an arc visualization would help, second, I think making it a bit more obvious what bomb you're on would help alot, maybe in the corner or something have a little card to show what bomb type you're on, I understand part of the challenge is keeping track of that, but it's kinda hard to see the bombs amongst the pixels of the pirate themself, otherwise, pretty awesome work!

saantonandre responds:

Thanks a lot for your review! The bomb type is also displayed in the cursor by the way, I might think about adding the arc but it gets difficult since the bombs also keeps your momentum(other than the accelleration of the throw), so it might go all over the place when you fall/jump and it can get distracting

[Color Cross]

Pretty simple concept, Only played till level 13 so I don't know how difficult it is past that point but pretty fun in general, keep it up! I enjoy the high quality of the art!

[Nebula Fighter]

It's fun...? I guess? I don't know if I'm just doing something wrong or not, but I cant even last 10 seconds cause the hitboxes seem kinda jank and I keep getting hit from like 4 pixels away, but it looks neat either way

KJScott responds:

Fixed up the collision detection, should be easier to play now

[Diaphanous 0]

Pretty good game, couldn't get past level 4, I think that this game is pretty well polished and good in concept, however, the thing I find extremely irritating about it is how inconsistent the collisions themselves are, occasionally I won't be near the "fellow man" and I'll still bounce off them while falling, or there will be half a pixel of a spike touching me and it'll kill me, perhaps adding more buffer would make it more enjoyable, I'm also personally not a fan of floaty jumping, but it works pretty well in this, and adds a lot of difficulty

HapPie responds:

Thanks for the feedback, will definitely take it into account and will make some frustrating parts less frustrating.
