[JOY (Part 1)]

I know you can't believe it, but yes, I actually took the time to read the piece of paper that is at 5:15. Actually, I happened to pause it at that moment to get my cat out from behind my monitor since she just hopped up there at that time, and then I noticed what was written. Funny coincidence. Outstanding quality and awesome short film. I loved it.

[Spin Spin Episode 1]

I really enjoyed this. The spinning mechanic with the movement to avoid the spikes was actually very fun. It kind of reminds me of the game "VVVVVV." The only things I would have liked to have seen in this game are some different colors/graphics for different areas of the game, and also some music would have added to it. Short but fun. :)

Thanks HelpThePoor. Funny you say that. The soundtrack was the coolest part of this game, but when I uploaded the game I forgot the music was dynamically loaded so it didn't make it to newgrounds. I'll submit an update with this fix once it has passed initial judgment (assuming it passes). You can check out the game with soundtrack at www.spinsp.in.

Thank for the feedback. I appreciate it. VVVVVV was a huge inspiration for this game, in terms of the tone (twitch controls + grapjocs + music).

You guys did a great job with this game. I love the artwork and music. The wall-jump mechanic was great too, and it worked fine for me. I think some people may have had trouble wall-jumping because they pressed the arrow key and actually moved away from the wall slightly before hitting the jump button.

It really had a great atmosphere and was enjoyable to play. In a way it reminds me of both Fez and Cave Story. Could these two games have been an influence for you? Anyway, great job! I rate it 4.5/5 rather than a solid 5 because I just wish it was longer. You should definitely consider making a sequel for this. :D

Raiyumi responds:

Thanks! Cavestory and Fez indeed have a bit of influence in this. Also, it's in our plans to work on this more in the future. :)

[Tiny Angry Eyecandy Saga:]

Very fun and challenging game. I like the graphics - it's simple but very interesting. Good music too. You did a great job in the very short time you had. The only thing wrong with it is that occasionally if I jumped onto the corner of a block, my guy would freeze in place like he was stuck and would not move until I made the blocks disappear. It seems like maybe a bug in the collision detection system, I'm not sure. Very fun though, I like it! :)

whuop responds:

I'm very glad you liked it! Yep the corner thing is a bug that we didn't have time to resolve. Luckily theres the reset button! Will fix that bug somewhere in the near future.

Bladerunner 2049 is one of my all-time favorite movie sound tracks. You definitely captured the dark, dream-like, futuristic sound of the OST here. Great job, I really enjoyed this. :)

The intro got me expecting this to be a retro video game song, but then the beat with the distorted synth came in and I was like Woah, hold on, this is really interesting. The part that starts at 1:12 reminds me of some of Nine Inch Nails older stuff, probably because of the haunting piano and that heavily distorted synth that seems to almost be trying to scream something vocally. I’m a big fan of NIN btw. :) It’s really interesting how you meshed retro video game sounds with this darker side using distorted synths and an in-your-face beat. And the fast drums towards the end are great. I love the tempo and pitch changes towards the end as well. This is probably the most unique song I’ve heard in a while. I won’t soon forget it. Very fine artwork you have here sir!

[Valentine (NGUAC)]

Aw yes, young love lol. I hope she digs this song. Very nice work sir, and best of luck to the both of you! :)

[Illias vs Sandril]

This is really awesome! Congratulations!

Thank youu

[Victorian tileset test]

Well, your pixel art beats my pixel art for sure. It would probably take me a week to try to make something this good. :)

[Timelapse Video: The Hunt]

Man, that is amazing! You have some serious talent. It was really interesting to watch you make this on the time-lapse video. I look forward to seeing more of your future works. Beautiful and inspiring artwork! :D
