Yassinius's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[A Koopa's Revenge 2]

I like it but there are some things that bug me.

Firstly, the controls aren't that precise. for example, in level 1-2 there is that secret pipe I can't get to because those dropping platforms are falling too fast.

the game is also pretty slow. AKR1 is much faster, even if I set the graphics in this game to low quality.

Sometimes I think the music doesn't really fit with each other, but hey, you use a lot of different styles and I still like it.

The graphics are also pretty good, but it kinda misses the quirkiness the first one had. Koopa is seen sideways all the time and it just looks weird. It's more robotic.

I like that shell dash mechanic but because the game has such a slow pace, it's not very useful. Maybe it's just that I haven't come so far in the game.

Overall, I think it could have been better. It surpasses his predecessor in many ways but it also falls flat in other areas.

3/5

Lambtaco responds:

They controls seem pretty precise to me. I've had a number of complaints about it. But it seems to work for the majority of users. Perhaps I should have tested on more machines.

That's odd. It's much faster on my end. Even on my old crap PC. In a trailer I made I have a fade between the old game and the new one, and he new one is visibly much faster.
Sometimes flash games are just weirdly laggy on certain machines I guess. For example I played that one game, You Only Live Once, I think it was called, on my new computer and it lagged like crazy, despite being a not so new game and working fine on my old crappy PC.

Criticism accepted on the robot thing. You're totally right. I was never completely satisfied with the run or walk cycles specifically.

The shell dash is mostly useful for getting secrets and such. Other than that it's more fun for screwing around with than being truly useful. Trouble is I couldn't make it necessary anywhere because you can't always do it.

Thanks for reviewing.

[VVVVVV Demo]

This is brilliant :D Finally a game that really wants to test your skills. I'll buy the full version for the 3ds!

[Riddle School 4]

Uhm...

It's so bad this is so short :( But You've made it good with Riddle school 5 :D

Oh and did somebody notice that Smiley is a lefty :)

JonBro responds:

Actually, I didn't even notice that. I need to keep that in mind for consistency's sake. Thanks, Yassinius!

[Riddle School]

I like it!

I have always liked the riddle school : ) Three years ago when I played this game, I never thought there also came a riddle school 4, 5 and... transfer! But I'm happy that it has hapened...

Oh yeah now about the game itself. I think it's very hard to make a game so I don't know what to say. It's good and enjoyable!
