KobatoGames's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pico Skate]

Fun game. I've played this many times now. Cool to see a GDevelop project that can connect with NewGrounds Leaderboards. If you add tap buttons for jump and duck, you could make this game work on mobile too.

Edit: @tydaze. Oh yeah, I forgot you could have the mobile controls hidden depending on the detected device. Very polished game.

tydaze responds:

The touch controls should appear automatically when playing on mobile

[2-Bit Explorer]

I got this error (edit: had intended to paste the error but forgot) when I tried to use save for the first time. I was outside Antoine's house.

Edit: It was a aways into the game. I had arrived, talked to Antoine, explored the areas outside the maze, slashed all the bushes, entered the maze, slashed the bush over some stairs, retrieved a small key and gone back to the area outside Antoine's house to save. I also picked up the poem and examined every item in the inventory while in the house.

I am on Chrome, not incognito. I also just restarted the game to and tried saving inside the house after finishing the dialog and save worked. No idea how the error could have triggered last time.

Fiddleling responds:

Hello there, how are you? I am sorry for that bug! I am trying to replicate it, so could you specify a bit on what happens? Is it an error message? Does the game simply freeze or does it just not save? If you could tell which browser you are using and if you are on Incognito Mode it would help out too! Thank you very much!

[Detective Mock]

Yeah. The resolution needs to be smaller. This might be fine for people with large desktops, but when I zoom out far enough to see the whole window on my laptop, the text becomes to blurry to read :(

[Snowy Night Escape]

Edit: The 2016-18 games appear to be working in Ruffle again as of this December.

As of November 2023, this game and many others in the 2016?-18? range are going to a white screen after clicking Play in the current version of Ruffle. Hopefully they will be playable again in future versions of Ruffle. I remember how exciting it was when Ruffle was FINALLY running these Flash3 games.

selfdefiant responds:

Some games only work in the Newgrounds player. I do hope Ruffle will allow them to work soon too!

[Snow Line]

Found this game years ago, played it once and liked it for the unique concept, but could never find it again until today when it popped up on Hooda Math. Worth the wait.

[A Viking's Tale 2]

Not sure if this is just a Ruffle glitch, but after encountering "Odin"/being taunted by Loki, my cursor disappears and does not come back afterwards, making it basically impossible to finish the game.

[Boo! Bark!]

Hi. I'm in Ludum Dare. Can you add a link to your jam page in your description? I can't seem to find one.

[Spooky Season]

That was great! You ought to tag it halloween2023 to be part of Newgrounds' annual Halloween event. That way, you can be part of the 2023 page and maybe even win a prize.

arudasics responds:

Thanks for your suggestion! I will do that right now!

[Cracking the Safe]

Really well animated!

[Adventure Boy: Jailbreak]

Edit: Turns out you have to press Space when Benson is face down on the ground and he jumps right back up, so it's not game breaking. Sorry for the false alarm.

When I loaded a saved game, I appeared facedown outside the bakery and cannot move. It looks kinda like when Benson first wakes up on the ground next to the apartment, so I am wondering if the save put me at my save point but also thought it was the beginning of the game.
