VacantVirtuoso's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Alter Kat]

A lot of people are commenting on the age rating so i won't say what's already been said, my main critique is based on the use of the gradient textures, they don't work mainly due to the fact that on things such as the clothing there are wierd shadows and light sources that are given off from the use of gradients that ruins the aesthetic of the outfits, in a way they make the game look old due to the way it brings back memorys of when i was a bit younger and you would see this type of gradient colouring used alot in early flash games and animations.

Personally i would stop using gradients in this manner. One thing that i can see that you did well at is that it plays well as a dress up game which is why i give you 2.5 stars, personally i don't like the physical aesthetic of the drawing style. Music kind of gave me a headache aswell, when i started up the game it seemed super loud through my speakers it scared me.

Why aren't there any sound options? slightly annoying.

swishcheese responds:

There is a volume control in bottom right. On top right there is option to turn off sound and sfx.

As far as Flappy bird clones go this one was pretty bad, the hitboxes of the cactuses don't match up with the character... i overlapped a cactus multiple times but did not die? also the game overall is too easy, i could of kept on going continuously after reaching 50 but by that time i had already gotten bored as there was no challenge involved.

The fart sounds got annoying after a while, you should of tryed something more creative overall, although it's just a flappy bird clone i feel as though it was kind of half arsed, try something new with it atleast for example you could of spent more time on the backgrounds or even make a character that doesn't look like garbage. Could of hyped it up more with a decent character design.

Just felt boring to play, the whole side view dirtbike concept is kind of old now and the game as a whole didn't even feel that attractive to look at.

[The Guardian]

I liked the story but It was let down on the lack of constant flowing music, when the music stopped it broke the atmosphere. Personally I didn't like how you had to run all the way back to the giant each time, I wouldn't of minded if travelling was more exciting and fun but it was basically just a jumping puzzle which wouldn't of been as bad if you weren't made to do the same jumps over and over again. The only reason I am giving you 2.5 stars is on the basis that it reminded me of Shadow of the Colossus my favourite game of all time.

This game was really impressive, i loved how smooth the game played and the whole atmosphere the music gave off along with the color scheme, well done i enjoyed playing this game a lot, it felt a bit like super meatboy yet i enjoyed playing this more.

It's a pretty good game but i couldn't enjoy it as much as i wanted to, the artstyle wasn't really my cup of tea and seemed a bit boring, if i am going to be playing something for a while then i want it to atleast be a bit more colorful and eyecatching. That is the only thing i would change.

I think I agree with some of the previous comments, the depth perception in this game is messed up there needs to more of a difference between the foreground and the background, the animation of the character was pretty well done though I will give you that.
