LDeins's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Epic Jungle Escape]

Really sucks after a few levels. Since you can only proceed if you manage to get rid of the animals right in front of you ... what, if it just doesn't match? Within 4 minutes? No progress at all.

How about an bonus system which prevents the game to get stuck? Each time 20 of a kind (in total) get wiped away, the player can destroy one free animal ... something like this. Or after getting a combo of 5 animals at once, 3 random animals of the same kind get destroyed too. Not as efficient as the previous one, but at least something. Guess/hope you understand what i mean.

I admire points made by you. I will try to improve it, so you will like it.

[Bird Zap]

Can't even kill ONE bird within time limit. Pretty sure something is broken ... one star for the birds flying around that nicely

scheffgames responds:

Hi! Developer here. Click anywhere on the screen to trigger a lightning - does this works? If it does than click near a bird (or directly over it) or near a group of small birds to electrocute them. Clicking on big birds won't work because they're resistant to lightning and will only explode if small birds explode near them.
As for the time limit I'm pretty sure it's quite permissive at the start of the game and it only gets smaller faster as the game advances.

[Minute of Rage]

The longest time was by just standing and don't move at all :D -> 22 seconds !
Oh, and btw, even without unlocking any of the bonuses, i already know what they are:
- gag, had, mask, tail
How? well ... seems like the locked-mechanism is just visual ... and since the game is too hard in my mind i guess i won't unlock them in the supposed way, sorry.

Wolod responds:

Thanks for the bug report. Time to lock some items properly. And by the way anybody is able to unlock them in the supposed way. All you have to do is just to keep playing. Every item unlocks after a certain amount of the gameplay sessions.

You want to know what could be made better? How about this:
- i love ranged combat. Hit'n'run. So i've chosen fireball and heeling staff. Ending without any mana left after destroying the 3 crystals at the very beginning and facing the first enemy. Bad, really bad thing to leaf the player without any mana regeneration and not mention this at the beginning. I had to start again creating another weapon set. I couldn't even flee since the crystals resporned after leaving and reentering the room. And without mana i couldn't destroy them.
- having a sword and the healing staff now, i started playing. Sure, the green area marking the enemy attack is a good idea. But not being able to escape once i have started my own attack is pretty bad. It should be aborted when i run too far away.
- since neither mana nor health regenerate and there is no rest function to fill up both it's just a manner of time till i was hit so often that i have no mana left to heal myself. compared to the fact, that enemies resporn every time i enter a room ... own health limited but endless enemies? how did you thought that would work???
- last thing i had till i hat to reload the 7th time without getting further the first 3 rooms and decided to write this: in the room behind the crystal are so many enemies - it happened multiple times that they surrounded and blocked me. And since health is the most valuable thing in your game it's no mater if i can free myself or not. Once surrounded for a short period of time too much health is lost to continue playing ...

And that's why the game is pretty frustrating ...

chaos00177 responds:

the statues give you elixers that fully regenerate your health and mana. you can hold a max of 3 so whenever you want to get your health and mana back up, you can go to the statue. i didnt explain it in the game but if you unequip your weapons you are able to punch so you can still break the crystals to get to the statue for potions. My game is poorly balanced if you use two magic weapons and I'll try to improve that for later games. I'm sorry I didn't explain the statue = elixers for healing idea better. Thank you for your review

[S.M.O.L.]

Nice idea with the miniature mode, but since i can zoom in with my browser (FF), it kind of didn't worked :D

BoMToons responds:

Ha ha, cheater!

[Sleeper's Curse]

I .... don't get it. Could you please explain a bit more? The scroll has some instructions, sure. But why do i die randomly ?!?!

IgorsGames responds:

Yes, you don't die in the game at all. Please play with the sound:-)
