OneManRektArmy's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Painted Lady]

I honestly don't see much sense in this game. I get that the game is expounding on some metaphor about the world today and the life of certain people. After taking care of several customers, I finally stared at the mirror and got the metaphor with the change in color and stuff. But the point is that this doesn't warrant a game. I think it fits more as a short film than a game.

Don't get me wrong though. The low score is not because it doesn't have a touching metaphorical narrative but because this does not suit the environment of a game.

I give one star for the effort in the ideas and pixel art and another star for the great sound choice. I can't give anything more sadly.

[Seraphim: Act 0]

I can't say I liked the game very much for certain reasons.

1. No sprinting.
2. Illustration really needs work. (For the love of me, I couldn't even tell that the character was a woman!)
3. Guards have next to no AI, usually requiring you trigger them by being in range. You could make them go on a patrol and move around to make it more interesting or difficult for the player.
4. No clear narrative or story/introduction to make me bond a little more with the character.
5. Vague descriptions of characters are just that; vague.
6. Maps are small and cramped, with no room for exploration.
7. Interactable items have no indication that they are indeed interactable. Try item shine?
8. walk animations look more like a waddle than actual walking.

The only pros I can find are these:
1. Music was OK.
2. Battle system is fun. (reminds me of Undertale and a couple of other games.)
3. Mood and setting was suitable to the tone of the game, which I'm guessing was meant to be gritty.
