Aardwolf's game Reviews on Newgrounds

Lovely

Lovely game and atmosphere. A work or art. The wall jumping could have been explained better imho, it took me a very long while to figure it out. The trick is: the down arrow should be kept pressed, don't release it until making the actual jump, while the left or right arrow (depending on the side of the wall) must be used all the time to adjust your position so that you're not going downwards while holding the down key but at the same time don't go too high so that your ship is positioned such that it'll jump upwards when finally releasing the down key.

Intruiging

I'm actually more interested in the fact that two rotating spheres can look like actual moving legs, than by the "hiding behind bushes" 2.5D thing :)

[Governor of Poker 2]

Nice series

I liked Governer of Poker and I like version 2 as well. The bots are OK, not as good as humans but better as in some other games. And the thing that makes the game good to me is that you're actually trying to win something (namely progress in the game) so that it's actually worth playing poker in it. This unlike e.g. some poker games on facebook, where the people play really dumb and you get free chips all the time so that it's just a timewaste. I like the graphics & audio of this game (the animations and the voiceovers). But I dislike the following: houses are too cheap. Sometimes the bots make dumb mistakes, for example one bot had bet 117 dollars, another went all in raising it to 119. Well, the bot who had bet would have to put only 2 more dollars in the pot, normally nobody would skip such pot odds, but he folded. And the demo misses replay value. And there should be an option to check/fold & skip immediatly and a button to check in the dark. And a button to skip after you pressed "fold" instead of "fold&skip".

Add Loopings!!!

The game is good but could use a bit of variation: moving platforms, and loopings!

Also, almost each time I died was for the same reason: I landed on a small platform, tapped to jump but it didn't register the jump and fell off. Please update the controls to jump if it touched the ground and the jump key is already presssed...

[CellCraft]

The game was good, except a bug

First of all, the game itself is great, a bit long explanations in the beginning, but that's ok, after all it's educational. Some great gameplay after that.

I could play it until the last level. The last level I couldn't finish, due to something I think is a bug? I had more than enough of all resources. But when the toxins were at 58%, it just ignored further presses on the "Toxin" button. It didn't give any message or anything, just didn't make any toxins anymore, and didn't subtract the resources. And then a bit later this started happening to the green things that should pick up radicals too! So I couldn't continue playing there unfortunately :(

[War of Cells]

It's ok but

It's ok but the controls are awkward. I wish it were just so that left is left on the map, right is right on the map, up is north, down is south, instead of the type of controls where you rotate. These hard controls and at the same time needing your good hand to control the mouse, is really awkward.

Also, everything went well, until there was a level "collect 20 vitamines". I killed every enemy and had 3 vitamines. Scanned all of the map, found no other vitamines. At that point I gave up on the game :(

Plus I was constantly waiting for a sort of upgrade that would let me do more damage with the "spike" but never got one. Wasted some points on upgrades that turned out to need 15 EP's in a path I didn't want to spend these in, without knowing that beforehand.

[Don't Shit Your Pants]

Bugs in the physics engine!

There are a few bugs in the physics engine of this game! For example if you sit on the toilet with your pants off, and just wait for a minute without typing the word, it plops on the floor instead of in the pot, even if you were on it!

[Robot Wants Puppy]

I loved this!

The kitty as weapon was great, and I love that little critter. I love the sounds and the graphics. Only problem I found was that sometimes your kitty is somewhere you can't reach it, and I didn't find any button to call it back. Only way to get it back was to die, but what if you're stuck somewhere where you can't die and can't escape without the kitty?!

[Mushroom Madness 2]

I want more!

I got every star, and I want MORE! More levels, more destruction! More trees to blast! More mines to place! MOOOOOORE please!
