TharosTheDragon's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Intel Was Wrong]

Well it seems to me like this is too much luck. Fuel is way too hard to find. But meh. Low chance of success doesn't make a bad game.

If I find a whole gas giant basically made of fuel for my ship, why does that only refuel my ship partially? How big can my tank possibly be?

Wolod responds:

As you mentioned fuel is hard to find so I decide to make fuel tank limitless.

You need to be able to close the high score popup.

Denver2003 responds:

Thank you. You can close the scoreboard using mouse. I will add keyboard support in the next version.

[Dark]

Poorly written, poorly programmed, poorly drawn, poorly designed. It's so repetitive both in terms of the story and the gameplay. I kept playing so that I could see the twist ending and was underwhelmed. This should seriously just be one chapter.

JackAstral responds:

Thanks for trying it out anyway.

[Once Upon A Life]

The introduction narration reminds me of Kirby's Epic Yarn.

By the way, it's sprightly, not spritely.

Chaz responds:

Ah damnit. Thanks for pointing that out.

[Qublox]

I'm a longtime fan of your work, Josh, as you may know. Good work here.

The game seems to be pretty awkward when handling blocks that take up more than one space, that is to say the 3x3 and 5x5 blocks. The game counts only the center of the block as occupying a space, so you can still place blocks within the bigger block and they'll appear either above or below it even though they're not. I'm not sure what the best way to fix it is. I think what I want to happen is for the 5x5 block to actually create 25 blocks so that you can chip away or replace pieces of it rather than just leaving or removing the whole thing.

Then of course there should be an option to erase multiple blocks at once. Like maybe you could see a transparent cube that you're moving around that represents the area to be deleted.

josh-tamugaia responds:

Tharos!! Well, yes, I agree with the 3x3 and 5x5. Annoying me sometimes as well. creating 25 blocks for 5x5 is quite a good idea! Maybe I will use it. Thanks!

[GEMGET!]

Why do you say Gemget returns and this time it's super when this isn't the super one?

SkulFuk responds:

Eh, no idea when/why that happened. o_o' Fixed

[Super Gemget]

Can't even pass a single round.

SkulFuk responds:

Tip - Don't collect the enemies! :D

[Idle Farmer]

I thought the game ran without even being open. I thought when you close the game and come back, it will account for the time since you've last played and give you the appropriate amount of crops. I didn't realize I had to actually leave the game running.

Junjo responds:

The game needs to be up and running to work, sorry...

[Tek Tactical]

The mouse cursor has disappeared for no reason after I died and clicked continue. So that sucks.

tedgaming responds:

Thanks for the informative review. I fixed that bug now.

[DoctorWho: Brilliant Game]

I know this is an alpha version and so I should expect plenty of problems, but I wanna make sure you know you need to make a way to skip through text scrolling while still allowing the player to read the text. That is to say, either you should get rid of text scrolling entirely and have the whole text appear instantly, or you should make the next button make the text finish scrolling if it hasn't already, and only skip to the next bit of text if it has finished scrolling.

At least you have an option to skip text, unlike Skyward Sword.

Immudelki responds:

that has been fixed for the full version (still in the works), thanks for report ;)
