Alkaizer's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[ir/rational Redux]

IF AND ONLY IF I enjoyed the game THEN I would have finished it.

I finished it.

Seriously, 5/5 for originality and fun. I'm playing this one at work, and I would seriously have stayed late if I hadn't completed it in time.

[Seedling]

WOW. Had a blast, and it kept me occupied for a couple hours. You really understand the atmosphere of these kinds of games.

[R0B3R7 the Robot]

I love these games. A little more variation in terms of enemies would have been good, but I liked having 3 different weapons to use against what enemies there were. Worth more credit than some are giving, I do believe.

Also noticed several levels in which you didn't have to get all weapons to finish. You should add some achievements for when players do that.

4/5

[S.R.A.G.: Resurrection]

My eyes are bleeding from getting like 115000 points in the original SRAG today and not being allowed to blink for 15 minutes.

This was a lot more fun. Not too tough, but that last boss was a grade-A, wholesale sumbyatch.

Reminds me of old games like Master Blaster and so forth. Good games. Games that "has pixels for artwork".

115,000 points... You may not be on the top 10 of all time, but you're a hero in my book. It's good to know you enjoyed this game as well.

[Perspective]

A 5/5, for being exactly what it wanted to be.

And in no universe was that remotely too hard. I died a few times, like I was supposed to, and made it through.

I also didn't consider the perspective alteration to be gimmicky. It was a legitimate gameplay element. Like any game, you had to learn it to finish.

Very sweet ending.

[Battery Powered Adventure]

LOL. You dick. :)

Awesome music choices throughout. "With Teeth" wasn't my favorite NIN album, but "Right Where It Belongs" is my favorite Reznor song.

I almost feel a little boned by the cheesy last second ending. All of the intensity that you threw away with that move (I mean, yeah, I laughed) could be harnessed and used in a longer version. I stopped blinking during the sequence when you find out what's really going on with the robot. That was good storytelling, even if the story would've only been two sentences long.

[Portal Panic]

Hahahaha. Unlike most people here, I actually thought the ending was the best part of the game. That was funny.

Friend, I've been a member of Newgrounds for 8 wonderful years. It's submissions like this that made them wonderful. Way to go.

This isn't a "game". It's an interactive experience. It is a grand medium of storytelling that is underutilized.

Several of the book titles made me laugh out loud, and I loved the many nerd-pop-culture references mixed in with the clickables. If there is a God, I hope he has Voltaire, Sagan and Dining In Morrowind in his collection.

But it was the powerful, well-worded reflection upon the flow of a successful life lived that did it for me, and everyone else. It made sit here and think about my own, how it has gone, how it is going, how it will yet end... and I have to say, if I left here tomorrow, I could do it knowing that I've seen and done and danced and loved and been loved.

Now, how many Newgrounds submissions do -that- to a person?

Mixed with the beautiful motivation behind the creation, and you get top marks from me. Keep being thoughtful, keep creating. We need it.

[Abobo's Big Adventure]

I no longer need religion.

I just shit my pants, put on a new pair of pants, and then promptly shit my pants.

Seriously. Just.... wow. Just a bright, shining moment in indie gaming history.

[Psychosomnium]

Fun

I AM THE MAGICIAN1!!1!!!

But seriously, a fun way to blow ten minutes. Kinda made me giggle a couple of times. Why are you guys holding this to some silly standard, talking about messages and meanings and feelings? It was just a goof, I thought it was fun.
