DosieDonut's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tankmas ADVENTure 2024]

FINALLY!!!

This looks so cool! I'm super excited to open the rest of the days' presents and to find more easter eggs.

I also like the online format and seeing everyone else who is here. Makes me feel like I am standing next to some really cool peeps.

Thank you for bringing this great tradition back!

[Advent Chickendar 2024]

I'll try and go the nice route and open one per day.
Judging by the first day, it looks pretty cute/cool!

[Mexican Independence Day Collab Gallery]

Everyone did great! Well done

[Newgrounds Wii Art Collab]

@ThatCofaPerson OFF WITH YOUR HEAD /j

This collab turned out amazing! Everyone did a fantastic job and the UI and music is incredible! Thank you so much for including me!

And glory be to the best game console ever!

chillzozen responds:

Ty!

[Clocks of the BBS 2024]

What a wonderful collab! I wish I had known about it sooner... I'll make sure to catch it next year!

Everyone's art is lovely.

ShockAbe responds:

Thanks!

[Politics.]

I like this game! I love rhythm games, but this mechanic was extra cool and the songs unironically slap (like dat a$$). The character and level descriptions are very relatable (not British but politics are just as awful where I'm from) but cynicism aside, this is very cool, you're very creative and I hope for more cool games from you!

HS2Band responds:

If you'd like to hear more songs that unironically slap. You'll have to keep track of our releases on https://www.hs2.band

We are aiming to drop a single every 6 weeks.

[A Hollow Heartbeat]

I got Oblivion ending on my first try. Then Infinity. But neither ending felt... "right."

Until I found the Heartbeat. Then, everything fell into place.

The visions. The memories...

everything was finally Complete.

Heehee, I'm no writer but I tried my best to imitate the writing style!

This was a cool game! All three endings were very interesting. Now I know the three ways of dealing with the creature (to free it, destroy it, or befriend it). But I would also love to know the backstory of where this "creature" came from.

I like that the game is spooky, there are plenty of "surprising" moments, but no in-your-face jumpscares (I hate jumpscares.) It reminds me of the "Forgotten Hill" games.

My favorite part was meeting "the creature" in the third route. My thought process was as follows: "What's blocking the doorway... a body? Oh no... *look up* WOAH HOLY HELL - O? Oh, nice to meet you..."

I've been laughing reading some of the reviews. As soon as I realized you made the creature tall, dark-haired and polite, I knew many players would be wanting to date him 🤣

Lastly, the artstyle is very beautiful, not only the way you drew the creature, but all of the scenery as well!

Sorry if this review is too long. I hope to see more games from you!

Fakewisdom responds:

Tall, dark-haired and polite... Finally an explanation, even if a baffling one

I like long reviews, especially detailing memorable experiences or moments you liked, thank you
There will definitely be more games in the future, im just struggling a bit with direction

[Citizen Pico: Pico's School IV]

This game is weird and neat. I have been playing for a bit, I'm just struggling with the boss fight (I will not spoil it).

I can't figure out how to keep the boss from shooting me. I thought if I shoot first, then he won't, but he still drains my health. I'm not sure if there's some dodge button that I haven't found.

I have one last idea that I need to try... to use (again, not spoiling) the last item in my inventory. I will see if that does anything. Edit: no it does not. What am I supposed to do?

But so far, I like this!

Kolumbo responds:

no way to dodge, it's pretty much a race as to who gets the kill first

if you can, try it on mobile (in fullscreen) and it'll be a lot easier

[FRIDAY NIGHT FUNKIN']

NEW UPDATE! haven't played it yet, just posting the comment to prove I was here on the dot!
Edit: Thank you PhantomArcade!

Ok I have just played it, and it was really fun! The opening cutscene is cute, the songs are great, and I did not expect... the funny bit at the end (trying not to spoil it). The new UI in some parts of the game looks fantastic too! I want it to be known that I never lost hope in the Funkin crew lol. I am very excited for future developments!

PhantomArcade responds:

comment proven!

[Hank: Straightjacket]

This game makes for a very great concept demo. Though the way out is easy, I stayed for the dialogue and made sure to try every response option. I like the mechanics, characters and the story, and I look forward to your full game!

Also... ship :P

MyNextGames responds:

Glad to hear you liked it :) Btw we'll be soon releasing a new game so stay tuned :)
