valken666's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[JETSTATE!]

Nice! I like how you need to change from up and down through the borders of the screen. Edit: I think more variety could make the game more interesting, like different sizes of asteroids, splitting asteroids, or other kinds of enemies. Seeing a planet or space station to defend could add more emotion. Also adding something to strive to, like a better ship or more upgrades as the game moves on.

chronobolt responds:

Thank you! Feedback like this allows us to move forward!

[Aerobatics]

Nice. I have a few remarks, sometimes the game fails to start, and the circles are too far apart. But interesting concept.

JToelke responds:

Thank you for your quick review!
You don't need to hit every circle. The aim is: hit as many as possible within 50 seconds.

[Reach for the Star]

Game is fun, I was able to advance quite a few levels.

Jamessimo responds:

Thats great to hear! I have added badges/medals now! (You will have to re-play the levels to get them unfortunately :( )

[Dodge - Beta]

Good, but sometimes it lags.

ajithcage responds:

Thanks Valken666

[AlienTrench]

It's cool, but took me some searching to find the controls. I wish there were more levels as well.

rVic responds:

Thanks, man! I forgot to update the description with the controls, it's fixed now.

[Hot Air Balloon Challenge]

Nice, but also quite hard. Took me a while to figure out that the half-circles on the left represent airspeeds.

JeffreyDriver responds:

Thanks. It does get easier with a little practice. Perhaps I should make the airspeed clearer.

[Bizarre Cat's Adventure!]

Nice game. The music can get a little repetitive. There are some hard parts, but it managed to keep me engaged until the end. It would be nice if we could use the balls we collect to do something. Good job.

MrOnsku responds:

Yeah... I may not update this game because it's a big fat joke. But i may make a sequel...

[SCP-308]

Interesting concept, but I have some considerations. F1 also starts the Chrome help. The text sometimes goes out before I can read it. It would be nice if we could hold the keyboard key for movement. Otherwise nice job.

Done

[Retro Space Ball (early version)]

Graphics are really good. But the controls are a little slow and I couldn't understand what I should do.
Edit: played again, I saw arrows only to the sides. Maybe because the whole game doesn't fit my screen, so I can't see the score part (notebook 1366x768 14'). After realizing that I could dash, was able to advance a little further. Another thing that would be nice is other kinds of weapons.

RikOclon responds:

Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely be working on the controls next.

I've been trying to work out a way to explain the game without text. I was hoping the arrows pointing up at the top of the screen on the first level would be enough to explain, but I guess it needs more. Could you go in to more detail about what part you had trouble understanding? It may help me to make the learning curve less steep!

Edit: I just saw your edit and reduced the height to 600 and it seems to play well on my browser, but I don't have a laptop to test it on. Thank you a ton for letting me know it wasn't fitting on your notebook! It should work for you now. Also... There will be a decent sized update soon!
