BenwaHakubi's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[DESEEDER]

It's got great color and sound, good retro feel. Its almost too hard at first which makes it difficult to get into which kind of spoils it for me to be perfectly honest.

Zanzlanz responds:

Surprisingly, it won 7th place for music, out of the 1232 games created that weekend for the competition! :O People are crazy! But I appreciate it ;)!

And hey man, hard games ftw! I understand though - It was honestly extremely hard to balance game's difficulty. I settled with something that became easier to master the more you played, but never got "too easy" for an experienced player. And I wanted it to be always possible to beat, which was a challenge in and of itself.

Unfortunately what it really came down to is that it's easier to play with mouse controls than arrow keys. Give it a shot if you want :D?

[Stay Away]

This game is terribly boring. The only reason to play it is for medal points. Please put more effort into your submissions.

[World of bees]

The game itself is mildly interesting. So much more could have been done to improve the flavor of the game by adding sounds and humor. Since cartoon bees taking over the world is kinda hilarious. The theme of buying better bees is kinda boring after a while. I got up to the hybrid bee and the game froze causing me to have to refresh and then it made me start all over again and now I don't feel like doing that all over again. Its just not worth it, even if there is a medal because it just isn't fun after all you work goes poof. I would suggest and autosave feature.

Thanks for the feedback :)

[Toilet Success 2]

I guess this game would be amusing if you were into water sports. It is just a bad game. Its hard to aim ant the pee is blue. If I peed blue I would be concerned. The aiming is terrible if not impossible at some parts and the music is very annoying.

[Escalate]

All I get is a glitch. I hear music, and I see no graphics. I click and I hear a beep but nothing happens.

My comp is good, it doesn't have problems running games. I have windows 7 and google chrome.

[Cannons Revolution]

Controls do not work. I can move the cannon forward and back but not aim the barrel.

WhipFlash responds:

To aim simply drag the FIRE button (using finger/mouse) and release it to shoot.

[Social Dysphoria The Game]

Not many things touch on the subject of being trans. The way the enemy was named seems to label cis people negatively. I think that it not going to help the main focus of the game. We should bridge the gap on this issue and not make it an us vs them type deal. Which is why I steer clear of tumblr and its drama.

As for the gameplay it isn't bad but isn't special. I like that the graphics resemble the old gameboy handheld. I played as both genders and I realized that while playing as the trans male I could shoot the fe off the female so it just said male but I still got damage. I was trying to be clever :S

VOEC responds:

I agree with you on the first part. I already wrote a long post about that a few pages earlier.
And sorry for the second thing, didn't have enough time for coding to allow players to do that. :(

[The Telekinetic Incident]

I like this game but it has issues. Seems in between levels it gets stuck. I can hear the audio and the screen will be a solid color. Once I refresh and reload the game it gives me the next level. I am using google crome.

I like that there is a voice to tell you what to do and I find the music very calming. The game itself is fun and creative.

Skeik responds:

Thanks, I haven't heard of that issue before. I'm going to look into it can you let me know what level(s) it happened on?

[Touch The Core 3]

Hmmm. Lets see. Generic mouse avoider, medals for sharing it on twitter AND facebook oh and a medal you get for giving the company that made this game money. This checks out as a money grab. While it is a step up from the repetitive soccer games it isn't really something I could call an honest game.

[Cloud Wars - SD Extreme]

This game is a serious downgrade from the previous game. The last one was really fun and mellow. This one is supposed to be a challenge when it is more like just frustration. Its more like getting smeared and not having a chance.
