Kolter's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[GOON: The Game!]

Pretty good game, emulating the Mortal Komabt franchise.
Not many problems here, graphics are pretty good at copying the old school Mortal Kombat graphics and the controls were fully functional. All in all the game was thoroughly enjoyable.
Rhea was difficult to beat at first until I found the right strategy. It was pretty brief though, that's probably the biggest problem for me. I think Rhea's difficulty was set perfectly that beating him got a little bit frustrating.
If you're having difficulty beating Rhea, I'll give you a clue, Rhea is a lot like Shao Kahn when it comes to the approach you have to take when trying to beat him!
Hope I helped!

[Ball Grab]

Yawn,
This was a total waste of time
Some instructions didn't even make sense. "Ragdoll can damage it faster! and objects can do it too!"
Damage what, do what?
The graphics were amateur, and every level looked the same. And every level was just no fun. It was just tedious and required unnecessary amount of game time without really giving any rewards.

[Scary maze game JB style1]

Totally terrible.
It's a waste of time playing this. It's an amalgamation of terrible music, terrible graphics, and totally terrible gameplay. Don't even bother playing it, there is no reward for digesting such an abhorrent pile of garbage as this.

[A Horse Tale]

Boring.
The graphics were decent, but there really wasn't much gameplay. The horse ran much too slow, and there wasn't much variation in speed, difficulty or environment all throughout the game, it was the same boring environment with carrots and rocks.

[Rad Bear Rude Rockit]

Good concept overall.
The sketchy graphics fit the game perfectly, and the overall feel of the game was actually pretty good.
Some problems though. I think it would be better if we were given an option to launch the Rad Bear, you know, kind of like in Toss the Turtle. Maybe so that he can be shot with more or less power and it determines but not restricts the amount of time Rad Bear will be in the air. Just a suggestion.

AttackingHobo responds:

I am definitely considering adding launch controls to a sequel. Thank you for your suggestion.

[Escape From Nightmare]

Nice simple game.
Kudos on the concept which is quite easy to pick up, and the controls which are pretty simple as well. You've implemented simplicity with much skill.
The silence though makes the game feel lacking. I think a bit of suspenseful music would've added to the atmosphere of the nightmarish night. All in all the simplistic graphics and gameplay was actually quite satisfying. But the game still needs more kick.

[I Love You]

Not anything new or interesting.
However, I don't find it blam-worthy since it actually does still follow the guidelines of a decent NewGrounds submission.
What it is is just a simple coloring game that only gives you one drawing to color. There are a wide range of colors in the palette, and it gives you an option to print, but that's about it. There's not much variety or choice that's allowed within the game.
I think it's just a gimmick to buy into the Valentine's Day custom that has been ingrained in the minds of many people and is actually thought of as a proper holiday. If you really want to show a gesture of love to someone, I say it's better to do it yourself than through this game.

[Love Matcher]

Not a bad game at all. Works perfectly fine.
However, I have a squabble with this.
With matching mates it does get a bit confusing, but that's part of the challenge. However, it doesn't make it appealing.
Overall, this is an average game with not much new things to offer. Just another matching game with no new or distinctive features.

[Wasted Youth, Part 1]

This.

This might as well be one of the best games on Newgrounds. The story is just enticing and just gets the player hooked in the game. As soon as I started playing the game I was immediately interested in the concept. It's been done before. But you executed it with great skill. The scriptwriting juvenile, yes, but that adds to the atmosphere (so does the quite hilarious flatulence mod). The story is convincing and attention-grabbing. The ending demands for more. And the way you gave every single character an identity, it's just magnificent. That's good attention to detail, it's really impressive. My only problem would be the stairs. It's quite slow going up and down. Everything else is pretty good. I do believe this deserves a higher score than 4.22. Congratulations as well, this is one of my Favorite games on Newgrounds.

[Mittens]

It's alright

pretty brief, and great concept. One problem though, I get stuck while attacking in midair, that's very inconvenient when there are waves of enemies at the bottom attacking and I'm trying to kill air enemies. I want to get to the bottom but I'm stuck in midair, and I have to wait to get down.
