Plasmarift's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Dark Cell: Volume I]

The game was okay, but why didn't you alert me that the game came out? I helped play test it and you said you'd put my name in the credit for helping out.

azureda responds:

Hey Rift.

Sorry, I forgot to tell you. I've given you credit on the front page.

[Confound]

After being away from this game for so long, I finally came back and beat it though I did cheat. You can still open the flash player console and even though you can't move when you pause it, it allowed me to see what key made me go right, then unpause and go right with that key, pause when the keys changed then repeat the cycle. Honestly, I don't think I would have been able to beat the last level without doing that. I hope you fix this in the future and I think your game deserves five stars (even if as someone else as said, the idea isn't new, it is still good!)

[Lox]

I like this arcade game. It presents a few different challenges. You must avoid the the falling bullets, while making sure not to touch the let side of the screen and to avoid falling into the pit. It definitely is challenging, which is good. I'd really like to see this turned into a platform game. Good job.

By the way, how do I get the secret medal?

[Pixel Floors]

The game was actually pretty difficult, although it is simple in graphics and pretty easy to design. I like the design for the main character. Very good idea removing the use of the Tab key too, but why do the medals stop at level 5 when there are more levels?

idaviie responds:

i have added the rest of the medals and thanks for the comment. im planing on joining someone who knows how to create graphics im just a beginer lol

[The Scorpion Box]

I liked the game, but some of the death were a little too similar like the alien and Death one? I think only someone who was actively trying to fail or who forgot to pick up certain items would stumble across these endings. Still, a very good and entertaining game.

[Leave Me A Clone]

The game is very good. it doesn't really seem that hard to get all stars so far, but I've stopped playing because the medals aren't working. Please fix them.

TinSleeves responds:

Thanks for letting me know about the medals Plasmarift, I've just gone in and fixed the problem.
Hope you enjoy the game now :)

[Bomb Besieger]

I've played many games like this and this game in particular was one of the more enjoyable ones. I only have two complaints though. Blaster Master medal won't unlock and it bothered me that I had to wait for one bomb to explode before throwing another one. Still, very good game.

istvan89 responds:

Try to refresh the page. If I click on the Blaster master medal, it shows that you own it!:) Good job!:)

[Super Soccer 9000]

I really like the game. It is funny and challenging. You should probably specify that pressing the up and down button before the bounce makes you go higher and lower though. I also really like the girls; did you have tape a person doing the dancing moves or is that strictly your drawing?

I can't seem to get passed the part after the fists come down and the llama, the part with the really high platform. Is there a control I'm missing or something?

jjwallace responds:

Wow, you got really far. Oh there is a secret to that part.

[Asslevania: SOTB]

I was actually ready to give this game a worst rating until I beat it (I know that sounds like something a jerk would say, but when I say worst, I'm thinking 4 stars). If someone were to play this for 5 minutes and just turn it off, I could see where they would get a negative idea of the game. However, the limitations of the game (the slow saunter of the character for example) was meant to make fun of a few of the characteristics of the Castlevania series. And I don't think I've ever heard of someone getting through an entire Castlevania game without dying so getting killed should be expected.

It was a solid platform game with its difficult moment and cool moments. I didn't come across any bugs whatsoever and I definitely liked the little surprise with Dracula's final form.

I did have some complaints though
- The volume for the voice acting was much lower than the background music so I needed to turn up the sound to hear the conversation with Dracula, which after losing, would force me to turn it back down when restarting with the music being extremely loud. The opening line of Belmont is also very low.
- In a comment below, you mentioned that there was a checkpoint system, but that it was tricky. I never came across one and I think it should be more apparent if there was one (though I don't think the game needs one).
- After getting hit, it seems like the time between the invulnerability and taking more damage is a little too short (though this might be another play on the Castlevania mechanic. I've never played the first Castlevania so I don't know all the references).
- I really wish it was longer. The game was great.

That's about all that I can think of. I love the little things you put into this, like the zombies coming out of the ground with a flower on their heads. I think I know which of your games I'll be reviewing :)

Very good job and by the way, how did you get so many famous people on board with this project?
