Salamandre's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nightmare at the Manor]

Really nice game, but isn't there a problem with the font size ?

[Dark]

For the gameplay, this is too slow, not enough challenging. It was relaxing one level, boarding the 4 next
For the graphics, the character does not communicate any feeling. You don't see any anger, or guilt, or sorrow. The black outs that make the only challenge of the game should not hide the texts on the background. And the death is not indicated clearly enough (a visual flash, a time break would complete the sound jingle).
For the story, the most important. It doesn't make sense. Showing the different psychological states of acceptance is sure interesting. But only if you know the deception we're talking about. At first you think he either killed his girlfriend or killed himself. At the very end, you learn that his crime is completely different. Much more dreadful indeed, but this is not the point. And using the innocence of a child to put the focus on the guilt of an adult is a cliché. Don't use it.

Yeah I made the gameplay pretty simple so the player could concentrate on the story.

Thanks for the suggestions- I'm working on a big patch now, so I'll throw some of your ideas in.

[Gem Break]

Entertaining. But needs more gameplay. Just clicking once in a wile does not distract you all those levels.
And I could not pass level 14. I had a "fast bouncer" bonus, so with the centre gravity field getting the ball in the centre, I never managed to loose the ball. You need to add a "destroy present ball" button.

[Flap or Die]

god dame it ! i thought I finally found a flap game I could beat, and I died at the end !! I hate flap games ...

Kolumbo responds:

thanks

[Fat Flash (Flash Version)]

I like it. Just short enough to keep me entertained 'till the end.

[Always Room For More]

Very hard puzzle, especially because because there is no common colour between neighbour parts like in most puzzles. Moreover, it is impossible to guess the orientation of the individual parts. It makes it quite boring at the beginning. But yet a funny game and a good music.

[You Are Disabled]

Love it !!

[The Guardian]

the music and the graphic are nice, but the game is damned too slow and uninteresting ! you first do 5 times the same walk (with any kind of obstacles) then you keep the right arrow down 5 minutes to get the giant to the town and that's it ?! even the music doesn't last long enough.

[Eat!]

Nice game, but no reward of any kind ? This is the only missing element to make this game addictive.

[Heli Shooter 3d]

First thing to do is to make the soldier's gun automatic.
