KoadToad's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[It's Just TIC TAC TOE]

That was pretty fun

[SCAMS_FOR_THRILLS]

This game is pretty addicting and the music is amazing.

[Frogfall]

Haven't beaten B-side, but still a wonderful time.

[Would you still love me if I was a worm ❤️🪱?]

I wish there was more, I will say once you get a higher degree of rarity for the worm troops and getting certain upgrades, it becomes super easy without using any buffs, other than merging them for better troops. But man, I want more of this game.

[Lumera Numbera's PUZZLE POP]

Good music, very catchy.
Even with the tutorial telling me what to do, I still felt confused on the gameplay and in return makes things frustrating because I'm not sure what to do.

[Race Against a Duck]

Music is amazing, the controls at first I didn't like (especially the land part), but after more than a few races, it's perfect.
Nothing really here to critique, I do want to say the RNG is a big problem because you want a great time, but it beats the purpose of upgrading your tools to beat the duck in the first place.
If this becomes a bigger game with more things to add; suggestions:
Leaderboard maybe / Timer
Customizations on the duck themselves
Finally achievements which can be challenging to implement but having more quicker ducks in the way (The Elite Ducks).

[MÆRE]

Very simple and effective game, the monsters are scary, most being motionless and staring you until they are bored of you is great because I didn't know if they were going to do something was unsettling.
I can totally see this game having an endless mode or extended nights.
I will say there's no punishment for quickly opening your eyes and quickly closing them, which does break the fear mechanic a lot.
Maybe have it to where you have to keep your eyes open because you're not tired, maybe have both fear and sleepy meter, that might help
Also the faces for the closet, desk and door are a good touch, but for harder modes, it would awesome to have your instincts / your gut telling you to look that direction and have the player decide to go to bed.
One more thing, story isn't bad, but seems really out there for what the gameplay is.

[Fire]

I really like this game a lot, a great slow burner. The only things I can say can be improved is the journey mechanic being more fleshed out (which I do believe others are saying as well) and being able to use gold, not just 2 encounters, there's has to be a risk and reward system at play.
But regardless, amazing experience and vibe.

Yeah I would change that in a patch too along with some other things. I am glad you enjoyed!
