DanielIsAlive's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Life and Death of Boe]

This collab really managed to capture the silliness of especially the late 2000s era of newgrounds animation. I hope everyone involved had a field day with making these bits. Kinda sad to see this as a send-off to a small yet memorable miniseries, but who knows? Maybe you'll again feel like making a fourth installment in 10-15 years and everyone can experience the magic of the past once more. Might be getting a little sentimental there, but it's fun to imagine, right?

(also RIP bank scene, whatever you were)

DMpls responds:

appreciate the sentiment! It was a while ago that this collab happened, but working on my scene was a ton of fun for sure!

[Wallpaper 2.0 Collab]

But seriously, very nice designs everyone contributed, real newgroundscore (I'm sure that's already a thing and if it's not make it one)

SullyGuille responds:

Yeah, let's make Newgroundscore a thing!

[It Says to Wait]

I really like this game for its unexpected ominousness. It's interesting enough to keep you wanting to figure out how it works, but not in a frustrating and arbitrary "where the fuck do I go" kind of way. Pretty sure I ran into a bug though, since I ended up opening the door after some time, but now it's stuck at the text "is it done". It also keeps making the door squeaking sound when I scroll away from the screen (as in down to the comments)

Edit: I don't know how the divergence happens, but I'm pretty sure I got all three endings now. I got the complete wait ending twice, but I didn't get either medals for getting it or doing it without drinking. The first time one of the scripted shadows disrupted the ending scene, but I don't know why it didn't trigger the second time. Still, solid game overall.

Edit edit: All right, the complete wait ending triggered the third time now! I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for that secret you mentioned. Looking forwards to your other stuff!

TheGorondorf responds:

Thanks for the kind words! I'll try to fix those bugs you said (some of them I swear I don't even know how can they trigger when I made specific things like that to not happen in the first place, but that's video games for you lol).

I think I should correct myself and say that one of the "endings" is not part of the final moments of the game. Wink wink

[Wordly Defence]

Fun stuff. The tower defense is manageable enough, even if you somehow goof up every guess (provided you get the gems). Only issue I ran into is that the big headed medal didn't unlock even though I got the word right the second turn, both in the daily challenge and practice mode and only have the twitter post to show for it.

Edit: Ok, I got it on the second turn again and I'm pretty sure it's something with the api, maybe the browser which wouldn't make much sense since the other medals unlocked just fine. Strange.

[Trivial Guesser: Video Game Releases]

Not bad. Like Magnus commented, some technical issues so you need to wait or revisit a category to load a question. I think I also ran into a problem with the medals, since the 5 answer one didn't unlock for me either. I was logged in and made a screenshot of the score to be safe. Maybe an api issue?

Edit: Checked it again and it works now! Thanks!

TeamTrivial responds:

Sorry about those issues!

With a just pushed update you should be able to load up the main screen of the game and unlock medals after 2-3 seconds. If not, please check the stats page and see what's shown there.

Will be checking into other issues as well.

[DEAD DETENTION #1 (Rescribbled)]

Now here's something I wasn't expecting.

It's a pleasant surprise to see that you're remaking these. I played the original (ok like one of the mini episodes) back in 2015. The art, the writing, plus the weeb shit, made those games instant classics and timeless even now, a whole-ass decade later. Looking forwards to the next parts and full steam release, Jack!

JackAstral responds:

Thanks so much! Lots more weeb shit in the next episodes, LOL

[Adventure Plane]

This was real fun. Took me 12 minutes and I probably spent half on level 4. Finding the shortcuts definitely made everything a lot easier. RIP Wiesi

[The Newgrounds KinitoPET Collab]

No clue why this funky axolotl head with legs and that buttery text-to-speech voice is doing numbers but I do love me some 2000s PC desktop horror.

Consider me thoroughly kinitopetted.
