DanielIsAlive's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Clickery Hexagon]

This is definitely the most fun I had playing a clicker game in a while. The background music, the art style, even the medal notifications go a long way making it. Pure kino.

(also damn now I want some panderitos)

Edit: thanks for the fix. the api can be so weird sometimes lol

amyspark-ng responds:

thank you for the nice comment, i suggest trying again, now the game auto pings newgrounds every 5 seconds so ng doesn't forgot about it

[scaling a mountain using the second amendment]

'murica fuck yeah

Seriously though, it's real entertaining, all while being a half-cooked shitpost by design. Loved all the narrations and music. Tons of fun.

[They Live: The Game]

I keep forgetting how addicting this is for a single screen game. They Live indeed.

[NG Tarot Card Collab]

Inverted The Lovers, The Sun, and Inverted The Devil.

Don't know a single thing about tarots but taking the descriptions at face value, that seems about right. Timely too weirdly enough. At least the cards look real pretty, right?

Edit: Mostly felt personally topical, i.e. I met with an ex earlier last week, it's sort of an anniversary for kicking addiction for me and I need to replan my future again. So overall life I guess? Idk if I'm reading into it all that much, but I'll try anything once lol

itsreddqueen responds:

I've taken a look at the reading, If you could please divulge more into your situation in the comment edit then i'll give you a personal interpretaion. Just need to know wether it's about life, love, or a choice you're on the fence about.

Edit: damn that is pretty accurate. With the Lovers in an inverted position representing meeting an ex again to celebrate a wonderful milestone (Upright Sun). As for the inverted devil card, I’m proud of you for taking matters into your own hands and shaping your future, at times you may feel powerless and unable to get your desired outcome but I say soldier on and trust the process, but make sure you take really good care of yourself, it may be tempting every now and then to get back into old habits but if you stay strong and seek alternatives, you’ll be much better off.

Amazing, even more so before considering it was made in just three days. The difficulty of the last stage very much hinges on whether you have any weapon at all (yes, even the regular teleport gun), because landing hits with melee on the boss feels near impossible almost. Other than that though, the gameplay is just so addicting. Really enjoyed it.

[Clocks of the BBS 2024]

On top of being rulers of everything, mechanical hands also rule newgrounds. Happy clock day!

(Just now realizing that you didn't need to be a ng supporter to enter the collab. Oh well.)

Edit: Alright, shameless self-plug but I got into the spirit and made a clock thingy. Maybe I'll be on next year. Keep clocking.

BlueMonday1984 responds:

("Ruler of Everything" is a banger song, BTW.)

Won't blame you for not realising that - I only stumbled across that fact by checking Rena's userpage and finding a newspost about COTBBS.

[OBFUSCATION 100+]

Just like Glorious Time, strangely addicting. Despite having no instructions, it all ends up falling into place once you get enough automation going. Good stuff. (also nice deltarune reference)

WaspVentMan responds:

My addiction to antimatter dimensions has paid off :,)

[ENDHELL]

Challenging, but awesome in every way imaginable. Gameplay, art, soundtrack, simply great. The only problems I ran into is that sometimes during the death screen, the game starts freezing up and then you can't select anything on the menu afterwards as well the track medals not unlocking. Would love to see this game being expanded on with more enemies and tracks, different weapons and areas to choose from, but by itself, it's already pretty much perfect.

DaShahRach00 responds:

To be honest this is what I imagined at first!! Several zones, several bosses, several weapons, upgrades, a little story, maybe we will do that one day, it was at the beginning of the design that me and the programmer said to ourselves that it would be too much work for a second game, so we decided to make it an endless runner.
I'm very glad you liked it ^^
We will check all the problems you mentioned and try to resolve them.
EDIT : Freeze problem fixed ! And medals problems fixed !! :D

[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!
