Nijsse's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[NG Advent Calendar 2012]

An amazing ending of a really cool collab. I really enjoyed all the artwork. It felt like getting a new little Christmas present every day. Keep up the great work and I hope to see another one these fine pieces of art next year! =)

TurkeyOnAStick responds:

Hm, don't think another advent collab is in the making, since it's a pain in t'arse to manage.
Would LOVE to do a Chrismtas based art collaboration game, though, so fingers crossed.

Merry Christmas btw!

[Lost Catacombs]

Very well done

I had a great time playing this game. The levels were challenging yet nothing too frustrating. Some of the puzzles were really clever, especially the Zelda-ish ones with the ice blocks. The graphics are nice, they are just right for the atmosphere you tried to create, without being too serious. The level editor works nicely, so even if you beat the game you can still enjoy other people's creations, or create a level of your own.

Overall I think this game deserves a way higher score than it has right now. Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to Lost Catacombs pt. 2!

SantoNinoDeCebu responds:

Thanks man, appreciate it!

And damn you're better then me at my own game, I'm struggling to get the last few gems on the crazy door level myself!

I am a bit disappointed with the response(or lack of) I guess. The game steadily declined after judgement with not much input, but hey. What can ya do!

[THE DAWN 2]

Good, but a bit too dark

Nice game, I really liked the atmosphere and the music. I enjoyed the somewhat harder parts, even though they didn't really seem to fit into the game. I mean, you're wandering through a dark forest and a dark cave, and suddenly you are in a mine cart Donkey Kong Country style. I would've liked to see some more puzzles and maybe a nice storyline, but I definitely enjoyed the game. I think I do prefer part 1 though.

The only real point of criticism I have, is that you made the game too dark. Yes, it does add a Halloween vibe to the game, but this was the first time ever I had to adjust the brightness of my screen just to play. Other than this, keep up the good work, and I'm looking forward to part 3!

NightDead responds:

Thank you very much for the contribution, I like these comments, help me to offer something of higher quality.

Have a creepy halloween!

[Hacker vs Hacker]

Fun and challenging

It's an awesome and addicting game that really makes you think about the best possible way to counter your opponent. The best thing about the game is that there are multiple ways that lead you to victory, so people who think it's too hard should try different tactics until they find one that works. I also like the fact that you can adjust the speed of the game, so you can make the game faster when you're waiting for some more cash, and slow it down when you have to build a defence. Great job on making a very creative game, and I'm looking forward to your future stuff!

Entertaining

After about 7 days of non-stop playing I finally got the 'Win without dying' medal. Like lots of people said before, this game is very challenging and addictive. It's amazing how you created those graphics using only MS Paint. The hardest part for me was to slay the dragon at the hilltop after you save the queen from the fire zombies. It took some time to figure it all out but the medal points are worth the hard work. Thanks for an amazing week and I'm really looking forward to the sequel!

Fro responds:

Has this game had medals that long now?

[I wanna be the flash game]

Challenging

I really enjoyed playing this game. The music is very good, especially the song from Donkey Kong Country. It's a bit annoying the double jump doesn't always work that well but it doesn't make it less interesting. I'm glad you put a lot of save points in the game, it makes the game hard, but like you said, not impossible.
I'm not sending out a PM because I got the Zero Hero medal, you'll see lots of people get it. Once you play the game for a second time, you remember most of the boobytraps, making the game a lot easier. Keep up the good work, I always enjoy a challenging game!

[Draw Your Own Cartoon!]

Awesome!!!

I really like this one, so simple yet so great. I'm gonna play around a bit more with it, keep it up! :)

[Wade Defender]

Awesome

Very nice game. I got hooked and played until lvl 17, then got tired of it. Very well done, couldn't find any bugs. The music becomes a little boring after a while, but not annoying. Good luck with your next games!

Casualty responds:

Wow! A guy who knows what he's talking about! I know it get's a bit boring after a while, but if you'd play 'till level 25 you'd die constantly. Nederlands power!

[King of Cursors: X-MAS]

Really good

Very nice game! Hehe, and very addictive too. Nice job, again!

GAMECUBICLE responds:

Thanks :)

[Move the ball V1.O]

Very addictive

This is a very nice game! It's a small file so it's dial-up user friendly. It's very addictive as well, it doesn't look very good but once you passed the first few levels it starts to become a really cool game. Keep up the good work, and I REALLY hope this game get's protected.
