Luwano's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Defend Your Temple 2]

Simple fun game

Great example that a fun game doesn't need fancy drawings. I played the first game and obviously I somehow missed that a second part was on the frontpage once.

It's a fun defense game. People who take it too serious maybe forgot that we're on newgrounds here and not on the discovery channel.

Even though there are better defense games on NG, this is still an entertaining timekiller.

[M-Bot The Game]

Not great, not bad.... solid with awesome graphics

I read some reviews while the game was loading and I must say the game is not as bad as some people say. However, there are some issues which have already been mentioned many times.

Actually the game gets repetive very fast, even though it's challenging. I didn't know these two things could go together, but they do here.

I don't know why people complain about juggling the enemies. The hit-area is very generous. (I hope you understand my broken english :P)

For me, the real challenge was to avoid the enemies and obstacles. The juggling was manageable.

The upgrades however are frustrating. Especially as you can't tell when you loose your upgrade (or is it explained somewhere?). I got hit several times and kept the double gun, upgraded to triple, then one hit gets me double again and another hit or two to single. :S

I think I found a bug, it said SINGLE for my weapon but I still had the double gun for some time.

The depth is indeed a problem as it is really hard to tell where enemies, obstacles and collectables are. At least the red line is a help.

Graphics are awesome, what more can I say?

It is a little confusing when a lot of action is going on, but well it's an action game. ^^

Controls are not very good, maybe I should actually try a controller. BTW keyboards around the world look different, so a control setting option is always appreciated. But in this case I could still play it with keyboard. I tried both options and prefered the keyboard.

And as mentioned before, too much blue in blue. As M-Bot is blue, I guess you could change the color of the buildings. :P

I don't like these kind of games, but that's just my personal thing.

The game itself is good, but probably some of the reviewers ideas and complaints could help to make a potential sequel even better.

M-Bot credited as actor! lmao

[Cat with Bow Golf 2]

Very funny timekiller

I really like the game. This is one of the games where you can just sit back and relax while playing. But I think it's too easy nevertheless. You could set a lower par on several levels.

The music that plays when you finish a level is kinda funny.

The graphics are nothing special, but I think that's not important for this game.

I love the physics, I could play this game for hours.

Good work, too bad that this will be your last game. I would love to see more levels. Maybe you could create a level editor and release a player's pack or something.

[The Company of Myself]

Thank you....

Honestly I want to thank you for letting us enjoy this masterpiece. Even without the brilliant story it is really a fun game and I played it 3 times now. This brings also the only little negative point: There need to be a lot more levels, just because it is so great.

I love the drawings and style of the game, especially the "old" look when remembering Kathryn.

The game runs smooth with dozens of shadows/clones on the screen, I really enjoyed spawning a lot of them in several levels, even if not necessary. :P

The story at the end brings the elements of the game perfectly. I don't want to spoil it for others, but everobody who played it to the end, will know what I mean.

You draw the player into this minimalistic world, by letting Jack tell his story while playing. That's a small but very effective tool.

IF you should ever make a sequel, I would be happy to learn if (and how) Jack can free himself from his problems. Of course I would also love more levels even without another story.

Great work!

5/5 & 10/10

[Ninja+ 2]

Very entertaining

I have played this game quite a while. I really love the gameplay, but there are far to few levels. I also think they are pretty easy and I'm not the hardcore gamer, so maybe those kind of players get bored by levels that easy.

Good thing there's a level editor. So you can create a level were you can swing around like crazy and fight many enemies.

Sad part is that I can't publish my creations. Is there something wrong or is it only possibly on the games website?

Maybe you can release a player's pack edition sometime with dozens of levels.

Overall good game!

[The Gun Game]

Gun Game is a Fun Game

The game is really fun, the guns looks nice and it offers some challenge.

But there are some problems: You get hit and can hit your enemy with bullets that hit the wall and fall off. Even bullets that are lying on the floor can hurt you. I mean, come on, they are LYING ON THE FLOOR. ^_^

You can earn several achievements by simply firing non-stop in the warm-up mode. But probably that's not so bad, because it takes forever to get some achievements anyway.

Some challenges are really very hard, but I think with enough patience they can be completed.

Overall a good game and timekiller.

7/10

3/5

[Boomshine]

Really a good concept

It's fun and relaxing.

The only bad thing is, that the dots are placed and move randomly. You just have to start the chain reaction anywhere over and over again until you get it.

But it's still very good.

[Super Lava Jumper]

Icy Tower clone

Already been said it's a Icy Tower clone AND it's not even a good clone. I actually don't understand how it made it to the frontpage. It's not bad, but not good either. To be constructive: Repetive gameplay (jumping left-right-left-right), disturbing music (which can at least be turned off), graphics are not good but suit the game.

[Spewer]

Great game!

I really enjoyed Spewer. I played all the levels at least twice.

The idea is pretty unique and I like the different "pukes".

The graphics, the story, the sounds and the music, everything is just proper!

And the map editor is very entertaining too.

Here's my creation:

Nice game! 10/10

[Pwong]

Impressive

I'm not into Pong-Games usually, but this is more an experience than a game. Really good!

I think it's neither too fast nor to slow. Very good balance here.

It's most noticeable that music, graphics and gameplay match very well. Masterpiece!
