CaptKirky's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The nutter]

This is so frustrating and heartbreaking...

You have this amazing idea and youve sadly ruined it.

Having to allow popups is total bullshit. Even though the popup is kind of funny, it totally interrupts the "game" and defeats the purpose of creating the kind of chaos youre looking to show.

Then, there is no gaming aspect involved. Youre only waddling around while the scenes change.
So its PURELY visual, which is fine, but then...
THE DAMN POPUPS ruin that.

I was really tempted to blam this but the artwork and audio is awesome.
Its truly a shame. :(

Hi Captkirky,

This was made as a sort of experiment in a very short amount of time for a game jam(about 20 hours i think), the idea was the popup-interactions would add to the immersion and earie feeling, we even timed things to act up when you got back, i am sorry to hear it instead breaks immersion for you.

But many thanks for the feedback, experimenting like this can go both ways i guess. :)

[Family Funday]

THIS MAY BE MY FAVORITE GAME YOUVE MADE THIS FAR! (For many reasons...)

1. Dad Jokes
2. Mixed Family
3. Great Puzzles
4. Option to pick an "easier" puzzle.
5. Great ending

Just loved it, absolutely loved it. Great job @DeathTiger0

[Galbert's Animated Coloring Book!]

I like it! Cant wait for more pages.

[Zombie Society - Death after death #2/3]

For some reason my local save from the last game didnt register and I had to start fresh with no attributes in this episode.

This episode is moving along the story gracefully. Definitely keeps me interested. The characters are still entertaining and the artwork is really nice.

Its a great series so far. Nice job. Cant wait for the next one.

Muja responds:

As I've answered the other reviewer below, saving is working for me on local file, too, so I don't know what your problem might be.

My suggestions are:
- play both games ONLINE from the beginning to the end, until it saves your progress
- check the medals in the second episode: if it remember the medals you earned in the first issue (and it should) you're good to go.

Despite that, I'm really glad you liked our comic, and I hope you'll like the final episode, too!

[Cube Escape: Birthday]

I always have a huge difficulty finishing your games.
I ended up having to use the walk through a few times.

Regardless the storyline is amazing and the graphics are outstanding.
The puzzles are tough but its fun figuring things out, which makes a great game in the end.
Cant wait for the next chapter.

[Don't Run]

Gets attacked right at the start of the game, no way to avoid it.

Mechanics are really off. Half of the time I try to jump it doesnt work.

Since this is your first game, I'll give you half a star because I have no idea how much work even goes into creating a game and Im sure its not easy...

AlexDan responds:

I know, i work to make this game better. Thank you because you give me this ideas! I don't know how to fix the jump bug but please try to press jump button ^, then press left < or right >.

[Skeleton Gardens]

It was so simple at the beginning that I thought I wasnt going to enjoy it, as well as the odd controlling, but boy was I wrong.

This original piece became extremely addicting. I do wish there were some "hearts" to regenerate your health but it is what it is, and its still great.

[Whack Your Boss: Superhero Style]

ALL THE KILLS WERE AMAZING! My loved the Godzilla one but my fav has to be Cyclops.
When he head roles towards him and he kind of jumps back scared, that made me giggle.
Great job.

[Alula Falling #3]

WOW! This series just keeps getting better and better. Its amazing how well you are at creating these storylines. The option to Kill or Spare the players now is REALLY intriguing to me.

Are you going to make different medals for different endings now? I ended up killing her. Im a good person, I figured shed wanna be with hey daughter now and not after killing 66 PEOPLE! Thats loads. Were gonna be here for a while huh? :D Love it.

JackAstral responds:

Thanks! Yup- there'll be more medals like that in the next episode
