DanielIsAlive's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Twigi's Twisted Costumes]

Great job on the costume designs and music. The delivery on the voice lines combined with the mic crackling was sending me sometimes. Not sure if that shows how much my humor has devolved or wheter it's because there's something inherently funny about the scandinavian accent. Probably both actually. Either way, pretty nice stuff. Happy halloween!

Edit: Just found the secret. Truly enlightening. And totally unrelated but I used to think norway was called norwegia in english because of the word norwegian. I still think about that

Nebulate responds:

Holy shit thank you! Yeah the assets like the costumes were reely fun to make. Also thx for liking my voicework (whether it being intentionaly funny or not).

[Wizard Brew]

I checked the game out after seeing chris post about it but forgot to leave a review, oops.
Really liked the mixed use for the combat skills. It felt like there was a bit much going on at first and it took a bit to get the hang of the mechanics, but I think I embraced the chaos now. Pretty fun. Not bad at all for a first entry.

Sjhillustration responds:

Thanks! The hope was that it would be a little chaotic. I had other ideas too but I didn't want to make it too complicated, so tried to keep it simple and balanced.

[Trivial Trivia: Holidays and Celebrations Vol. 1]

Ran into a bug I think. I scored 90 on canada trivia but when I submitted there were no sounds or on-screen notifications. I did get a silver medal but no gold and my score didn't get saved either.

As always, the game itself was nice. It's interesting to learn about the stories behind the holidays, whether your own or other countries. I wonder what Vol. 2 will have to offer.

Edit: Thank you! That was quick

ElRandomGMD responds:

That was happened the same to me.

[NG Dreamcast Collab: Homebrew Edition]

Missed out on checking the original before, but gotta say, this might be one of the most creative collab entry presentations yet. This is going to keep me occupied for a good while for sure. Happy hunting I guess

alsoknownas1 responds:

Good luck!

[Party Pooper]

I came, I shat, I conquered.

I was wondering whether this would get a newgrounds release after playing the early build on itch.io. The party definitely looks a lot less dead now. I spent way too long on the password because I thought it was hidden in "Octocber" for some reason. The ending made it all worth it though.

crow-seeds responds:

Oh jeez that was an actual typo, that’s embarrassing… hope someone got fired for that blunder

[Newgrounds Wii Art Collab]

Great work on the collab everyone, hope you kept your wrist straps on making it.

It's nice to see wii games getting some attention. Only thing missing was something based on the safety manual illustrations :p

AlexToolStudio responds:

You were supposed to wear those?

[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

[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.

[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 :,)
