arachnid98's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Reunion]

Oh god, that ending... holy crap... ;_;
I thought the freaky Herobrine looking guys were scary, but then that freaking ending...
As far as the game goes, I think it's very well polished, and it definitely had the eery, shilling atmosphere you were going for. And I love how you used the game to convey a very serious message. If you were looking for an effective way to share that message , let me be the first to tell you that you found one.

Konash responds:

I can feel that you were highly impacted by the ending!
Thank you very much for your kind comment! I'm glad we succeeded :)

[Widmo shooter]

Alright, this game has plenty of pros, but also a lot of cons. First, the pros: the atmosphere is definitely scary and suspenseful, which is awesome. The sound is great (although the player's footsteps are awfully loud) and the specific sounds I heard added suspense and made me want to know what the story was. However, there are some problems. Firstly, your goal isn't clear. I'm guessing you're supposed to be taking pictures, but since the only controls are for walking (unless the "shoot" button is someplace weird, since I tried the mouse button and the space bar), and since there's really not much to shoot except for the debris on the floor, I really don't see how you can shoot anything at all. In addition, I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that the game would be much more comfortable to play if the WASD keys could be used for walking. The arrow keys make it so that your hands are crowding the right side of the keyboard, and the on-screen buttons can't be used, since the mouse should be reserved for lighting your way. Lastly, I'm guessing the bloody handprints are supposed to be causing damage, but as far as I can tell there's no health bar of any sort (or sanity bar, if it's intended to be THAT kind of game). Basically, what you have here is a game that could be awesome, but isn't. If you're not already planning on fixing these issues, I highly recommend that you do, because this has the potential to be a great game.
Oh, and one more thing: what the hell is a widmo? XD

[Monsters' Den Chronicles]

Well, it's obviously a well-made game, with improved graphics and style, but there are a few things that bug me. First, it's really, really hard getting used to the new style. We're used to the battle style in the first and second games, so I'm a little thrown off by the sudden change. Secondly, I miss being able to customize the characters. I know it seems silly, but I really wanted to continue the adventure with the characters I made in the first game. So once again, while this is definitely an excellently made game, it's not quite the same...

garin-dan responds:

You can still customize the characters. Click the 'gear' icon under the character sprite, in the inventory or character screen.

[The Interview Codex]

Very interesting, not to mention unique; I don't think anyone's thought of this before, and it's a great way to show people these insightful interviews. The flash itself is very neatly done, although there are a few typos, and I wouldn't mind a few other choices of music.

Also, did anyone else read Edd's interview and cry? :(

deathink responds:

If you are looking for some more great music to go along with this , check out my PICO RADIO flash. Over 140 different songs and counting :)

[Robot Hero]

The various modes of gameplay make this game infinitely more enjoyable than any other rhythm game (even though I sucked just as much XD).
Overall, an excellent game!

Prid-Outing responds:

Thanks a lot for the wonderful review. I am very glad that someone appreciates this game :)

[Chunkadelic]

I love this game! I find it very difficult to find anything bad to say about it. However, as I'm sure others have mentioned, there is a bug with the Duck Hunt level where the ducks fly around on the screen for all of the games after it.

I do have one suggestion: make another mode of gameplay where you can continue playing the same game, rather than one after the other.

Drazzke responds:

The bug with the Ducks was actually left in on purpose. We found it so funny when we first encountered it we decided to leave it in.

Having an option to try a specific level multiple times is probably a good idea.

[Friday Lyrics Generator]

You sir...

...are a genius. That is all I can say.

X6FlashDev responds:

Thanks a lot =^.^=

[Puzzle Book: Number Two]

An excellent puzzle game

The music gets old after awhile, but other than that, the game is fantastic! Graphics, concept, lethally pointy looking cursor, all great! But, just one little thing...
I CAN'T PASS THE DAMN OWL PUZZLE. Help, please!

FuNaNdMoRe responds:

Thanks for the positive feedback. I really appreciate it.
Stay tuned for more Puzzle Books in the future ;)

Count all the numbers together. That should solve your problem. The solution will explain everything to you.

[School class]

Muy bien!

Estoy también en una clase de español, pero ha comenzado solamente recientemente. Quizás en el futuro, este flash estará de ayuda. Pero de todos modos, el flash sí mismo es bien hecho, si un poco suave, y la voz se hace bien. Apenas agregue quizá algunos cuadros, usted lo saben, condimentan encima de un poco, si su profesor lo permite. ¡Entonces será perfecto! :) P.S. ¿Cómo está mi gramática? Apesadumbrado si la cogí para arriba. : P

Art-Link responds:

Claro que sería de ayuda, aún así no creo que tengas que arriesgarte heh.
Tienes buena gramatica, solo practica un poco mas

[I Love You 2 - Revisited]

nice

very deep. although the big shaky level right ater the frustrating purple thing levels gave me a headache. was that intended? :)

mirosurabu responds:

It was intended to certain extent, but I'm sorry about the headache ): Headache wasn't intended.
