KobatoGames's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Magical Curse]

I liked the story and lore. I wager it was partly inspired by Jumanji? My one suggestion is to check out some videos on how to design interesting maps. The indoor maps especially were kind of empty. These are some videos I personally have enjoyed.

[Just Passing - Chapter 2]

I had the same blackscreen issue talking to the artist as Qump1. It has happened to me every time I have played over the past two days, yet I watched a walkthrough of this game where this issue did not come up, so it is not affecting everyone.

It's unfortunate this sequel has so many bugs, since I really want to finish it. I'll try again another time.

Edit: Glad to hear you found a fix. What a sneaky issue. I had a similar issue once where the software I used would not allow me to have a exclamation point in the game file's name and I did not realize until after I uploaded and people were starting to download it. Yikes!

JoelLikesPigs responds:

Dang sorry to hear that - I've been privately messaged about this too - no idea what creates it at the moment

Any more details - The more details I can get the quicker I can track down the cause :)

UPDATE: - figured it out! just finished uploading a fix - the artist had an "illegal" character on one of their responses - the game didn't know how to handle it so broke - it was only on one of 4 responses so it would only happen 25% of the time so I just missed it - updated the response and it works :)

[Pumpkin Carving]

Good game. Made me want to keep playing and getting better. On a side note, I found it nice that since the letters of "pumpkin" are all pretty near each other on the keyboard, I did not have to jump to the other side every other turn.

blit-blat responds:

Haha, I never realised that pumpkin was all on the right-hand side. Next year I'll release it, but with the word "Halloween" - that'll make it a bit trickier! :P Thanks for playing!

[Red Run]

Hi fellow GDevelop user! I see you've been experimenting with the default sample game. I like the extra coins added in, though some of the new islands make the screen a bit crowded -- I found it hard to get off the bottom island of the two before the portal.

Good luck on future games!
