3p0ch's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sprocket]

I agree with SimonGhoul - on level 2 if the robot stands on the button then the door opens properly and closes as soon as he moves off, but if you slide the ice block onto the button then it makes the sound as if the door is opening but the graphics don't trigger and you can't actually walk through the door to the next level. Using Chrome on Windows. Graphics are amazing and sound is great, but that means nothing if I can't play past the second level.

I wonder if players are watching after the credits and realizing that at the "end" of the game you need to pay attention to those hearts and spades to figure out how to really finish it?

That seems like a huge point, and ppl are probably missing it.

[Coingregate]

Seeing this parody of the crap idle/clicker games that completely wrecked Kongregate and took it from being a top tier game site to a pathetic den of brats who downrate practically any game that doesn't hand the player a "win" for waiting and grinding regardless of their skill or ability to strategize was sort of entertaining in its own right.

But if you're looking for a fun game, don't bother playing this.

[Dr Spaceship]

I only once encountered a bug that made the launch angle not vary during the Earth mission, which fixed itself when I went to the main menu and re-selected Earth. And I appreciate the fact that it has multiple types of games instead of just one. But it simply isn't very entertaining. The only controls with the launch game were to click to set the angle and power, and you had no control beyond that during the flight and nothing to do except watch the rocket fly in an arc. The Ice Planet missions were the most enjoyable of the three, but suffered because of the inertialess stop and quick drop if you release the mouse button. (The solution to which is: don't release the mouse button, but it was irritating until I figured out that's how you need to play it and was irritating playing it that way instead of clicking once to start and then having the engines stay on until the end.) Overall the game seemed like more of a chore than fun -- it's based on rudimentary game engine mechanics without a story or a sense of exploration or strategy or upgrades as you progress, and has lackluster graphics with no music.

[Humanoid Space Race]

I don't normally like action games, but this one has a really high fun factor. It's one of the few that runs reasonably smoothly even on my p.o.s. laptop even when there are a ton of enemies and bullets flying around on the last levels. And although it gets pretty mad and crowded toward the end, it didn't cross the line of making me feel like I was out of control and just mashing buttons randomly. I agree with VascoF that the hitboxes when I stomp attack sometimes seem a little bit off to me, in that I'll take damage if I try to stomp in an area toward a mech's front or rear that I would think should be a clean hit, but it doesn't happen often enough to be a big detraction.

[Trees Of Loss]

It's an art game that seems to exist in a game format mainly to serve as a way of making the story more immersive, rather than being what I would really consider a game. The puzzles are trivial to solve; the only challenge was finding them and figuring out the order they're supposed to be done. Caio95 alluded to the other thing that bugged me: exploration in a mostly desolate world with a slow-moving character in a round window became more of a chore than an enjoyment.

This might be nice as a pure art game if you're into that sort of thing, and I'll give you credit for achieving the tone that I think you were trying to set, but it's not my cup of tea unless it's also fun as a game. (The game Perdition is the best example that I can think of at the moment.)

Fair enough, everyone got his likes. Thanks for playing and giving s honest feedback

[The Painted Lady]

I just can't connect with the message (which is pretty much the whole point of an art game like this). The game made her situation look about as demoralizing and monotonous as working at Mickey D's in a dead-end job to make ends meet with a boss barking at you to serve more customers and smile while you're doing it. I'm not saying IRL prostitution is just like taking fast food orders, but that's how it came across here.
