HappySeal's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ouroboros]

If the game is unplayable on the most used browser engine in the world, which happens to be the one that I use, then I'm not going to give this a good rating. Let me know when there's a fixed version for chrome but I'm not going to download anything for this. The whole point of web games is that you can play them in your browser.

Extremely annoying for me since I was really interested in the game for the 6 minutes I got to play. And I didn't even know it was sexy till I quit, I was just intrigued by the story, and art. Big shame.

Must suck for you the developer to have a glitch-y game that you spent so much time on but I have to review it for what I got.

[FIST OF AWESOME]

This bored me, I couldn't complete it because it was tedious doing the same thing, with no variations except maybe the bears look different or a dino is there. Not like that changes anything at all, you can spam any enemy. If the enemies get better later then cool i don't care, i'm not playing boring ass levels(?) to get to some development. I feel like this game wants to get by on story alone but I wasn't intrigued at all by the story, I just wanted to get to something interesting or fun to do. I guess the art is okay, and the music is at least custom, I didn't like it though.

Fuck man I don't get this game. Why has it got a 4 star rating? Am I missing how I'm meant to play this game? it seems unpolished and silly. And not the good kind of silly either. I really really wish I understood how people enjoy this game.. It feels like a game without substance to me..

[Earn to Die 2: Exodus]

Not much different to the previous ETD games, only minor additions which don't really justify a new game; New varied zombie models and a damage system are all that really stick out to me as new, aside from the re-skinned story of the last game.
This game is like a DLC of the previous game, which would be alright if the game was more story driven in the first place, or had more of a theme shift. If you've played the previous ETD then this is just tedious to play because of the grind-iness and repetition.
I get that the game won't be drastically different, but without an engaging story it's just plain boring. I'm just repeating what I've already done but with better graphics, and considering the first game wasn't an instant classic it just isn't worth doing that.

This is a safe sequel but an unnecessary one at that. Look to the Learn to Fly games for truly inspired development of an already great game. LTF 3 is an unmitigated successor to their previous games. It's maintained the feel of the series but has managed to remain fresh and fun!
I did enjoy the first Earn to Die game quite a lot, but the series will fall from favour if it doesn't change. Look at games like Sonic the Hedgehog. Used to be amazingly popular but now no one plays it but the die hard fans, and that's because it hasn't stayed fresh or it's lost it's core theme.

If you take away anything from my review, it's that you should attempt to keep the feel of Earn to Die the same, but don't let it become stale and fall from favour.

"Never fear change for without it we wouldn't be human." - Some guy probably said this at some point.

[Sentry Knight]

Didn't really add any thing new and I would prefer to play a more engaging defence game but it was still quite fun to progress but it just doesn't have any substance.

[Hardventure Into The Duat]

I kind of like this game but I hate the slowness of upgrading. I was here for hours and I haven't defeated the boss. The world and AOD upgrades are pretty useless. But I will keep playing until I beat this son-of-a-bitch game.

[Effing Worms 2]

Great mess-around and I like that the worm increases to giant size but needs to be longer and have different upgrades. My highest combo was only 1674. I got bored.
