PaperCookies's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lectrovolt]

I discovered a bug where if you press c whilst falling you'll actually change your normal jump height to that of the C button. Other than that it's a good game with a good soundtrack!

VFHolloway responds:

Hey man, thanks for the bug report :) i'm not gonna fix this version, but I'll be uploading a new level set with updated physics in a couple of months; sort of an informal 'Level 2' :p read my response to DamonandSky's review, I go into it in more detail :)

And yeah, the soundtrack is Ketsa, he's a London based Music Artist, check out the website in the credits section, he's really talented :)

I cannot express how awesome this fucking game is!!
It's simple yet so beautifully executed, even better than some AAA games!
a bazillion out of five, sir!

HEAT9 responds:

I find your review to be more awesome than the game, Thank you :D

[Kramer Vs Kramer]

It's an odd game, for the least.
I think i am supposed to know who the Kramer guys are before i can understand what's going on.
But for the graphics, they're absolutely wonderful, you really have the feeling you're playing a game on some very old computer.

For the gameplay. It's nice but what bothers me is that you can't see in what direction the head is pointing, making it nearly impossible to aim.

I'd say overall it's a good game. But it just doesn't feel finished yet.

Good luck on the polishing.

Hi. Thanks for the thoughtful feedback.

I feel a bit guilty because I posted this without an explanation of what it is. I was just curious what people would make of it without context. The game was written for the Cassette 50 mini-competition over at retroremakes.com. Cassette 50 was a games compilation from the 80s that was famous for being composed of awful games and the competition theme is to celebrate that. So, it's actually intentionally not very good and somewhat broken.

I did spend a fair amount of effort simulating the rendering technology on a ZX Spectrum, so thanks for appreciating that!
