VelvetDarkRocks's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[De-Animator]

Hey, not bad.

Surprisingly enjoyable, and not altogether convention or generic which is good to see. For its simplicity and filesize, an entertaining way to pass a few minutes with a strange sense of satisfaction, and perhaps just the right challenge level.

[The Impossible Quiz 2]

Wow...

There comes an enormous sense of satisfaction when figuring out the right answers, even by trial and error, but... 200 questions? It took me about an hour and a half to get through the first 50 or so, and you get really, really sick of it after a while.

I'm no longer sure if I like or dislike this game, but it was entertaining to start off...

[Virtual Suicide]

Not too bad!

I give you credit for the originality. The first death gave a good idea of what the whole game would be like, but they were all entertaining in their own ways. Especially glad for the "If you're really suicidal, go see a shrink" warning :)
Interesting choice of music, all in all, nice work.

[zombie hord3!!!]

Sweet game!

A little easy, but good for a casual play. It takes a little too long to collect enough funds to buy the weapons needed to pass, but otherwise excellent. Enjoyed the whole city to explore (though hidden bonuses/items would have been awesome- I didn't find any at any rate, because I was always focused on the next objective and where the hoards were gathering) and a vehicle to drive around in. It would have been good if you could use a weapon in the car, because I just kept getting gnawed/shot at before I was able to get enough momentum to run the bastards over.

All in all, not a bad zombie game. Nice music.

[Dress Up]

Cute, with a huge variety.

Music would have been appreciated, but it's all good. You make a cute anime character. So many clothes I didn't really want to go through all of them and try on outfits and all that, but a modest and pleasant game.

[Light people on Fire]

Man, not too shabby!

The idea is so simple! And yet so entertaining! The music, my goodness, was hilarious. It's just so incredibly awesome! 9/10.

[(Naruto) Dress up Gaara!]

Hey, nice!

Gaara has a few good looks going on there. Guess the "ai" character's a little too hard to animate, but honest, you did a really good job. This is one of the few dress-ups that was enjoyable for what it is. Limited choice of clothes, but some snazzy combinations formed. Nice song, too! All in all, very decent, and quite fun indeed ^^

[Gateway II]

Meep!

That was freaking scary, let me tell you. Okay, in essence, it wasn't much worse than the Sixth Sense, but... Playing it without knowing what was going to happen, not knowing what was going on... That was terrifying. Scary stuff!

Truly a good game though. Not too tricky, not too easy, just about right. The lack of music threw me off, and it had the most unnerving effect. All in all, I'd say you've created a pretty damn good piece! Just a few walking issues, but seriously, excellent work.

[Cursing Keyboard.]

That's actually not too bad.

I'm not a huge fan of profanity, but this was pretty amusing. Not particularly witty, but entertaining in its own delightful ways. Very nicely done.

[Ninja Guiji]

Not bad.

Not a particularly fantastic game, because overall, it's very very simple. The animations, particularly the death scenes, are cool at first but get very repetitive very quickly. Running around to try and walk up to someone's side/back isn't a huge challenge, especially for the patient. Not a bad idea in itself, but it wasn't pulled off all that well. The awareness bar was a good idea, but without shadows or anything to hide behind (unless you count the sides of buildings) it wasn't that effective. The battles themselves didn't seem to require any strategy- just choose the attack that had the fullest bars. No items to upgrade speed or health, hell no upgrades whatsoever... The game was fundamentally lacking, but not a bad way to spend 10 minutes.
