Schneevoli's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Amazing Monk]

Fun little game! Reminds me of doodle jump.
I died many times and only got to 107m as a highscore. I'm not entirely sure whats the problem, but I think its a combination of the camera being too high, the character jumping too high and falling too fast. I can barely see where I'm headed, but I have to be fast cause otherwise I just fall down again. With the current settings it feels like I do better if the random level fits my movement, but it should be based on skill, right? I like the idea of only being able to go left or right, but I feel like the level doesn't really fit that. I think it would help a lot if there were no walls on the left and right, and instead a loop so if you go to the left offscreen you would appear on the right again.
I love the artstyle and music though!

Relieable responds:

Thank you for your feedback! When we started the game we took into account the problems you have listed, but after the play test we decided to develope the game the way it is right now. Nevertheless we are thankful for your review and we will consider it in further improvement. We will also test your suggestion about the camera being too high!

[Cat Pile]

Cute little game!

I got stuck at level 15 for a bit, but eventually cleared it. I think there was a bug when placing the blocks, but restarting helped. I was a bit confused at first cause there is no tutorial, but I quickly understood. I love the blocky cats and the cute sounds, and escpecially that the same form of cat always has the same color, so its coherent. Overall the game is pretty solid and well executed, i couldn't find any major bugs. I sometimes had trouble with the rotating and had to click multiple times for it to rotate. I like that you rotate the platforms and not the cats, I think its pretty unique. I made it to level 31, how many levels are there? Its so many!

Thank you for the thorough feedback and reporting the bug, really helpful!
Right now we are at 1000 levels :)

I love the new bioms!

I played on pc cause sadly it wouldnt start on my phone (firefox-browser). The movement feels good and I like that theres different options for controls. I first played with the mouse and then with the keyboard. Splitting seems to work a lot better now, I wasnt able to break it. It just sad that the splitting is required so rarely.
In the ice-biom theres some flickering in the background, I guess theres a gap between the sprites. And in the swamp-biom theres a gap on the left side and sometimes a gap in the background.
The skin-menu is really small and you have to scroll to see all the skins, even though there would be enough space on the screen to see them all. Also I think it would be helpful to see the amount of crystal shrooms you have while youre in the skin-menu.
Everytime I play and get to the ice-biom, I get the popup again with the explanation. I think it should only appear the first time you enter the new area. Also I think the icicles could fall a bit earlier. I always tried to make them fall without getting to close, so that I dont have to rush through. Like in mario, when you stand close to them but not directly under them, you make them fall and then get safely through. Or you run past them, before they fall.

Oh and maybe you could put the splitting on the right mouse-button so that you can play it just with the mouse ^^

EnokiTheGame responds:

Thanks for feedback!

Yeah, we disabled the touch controls for the web-build now. Sorry for that. :D

We'll try to implement more passages where splitting is necessary.
We also implemented your feedback for the icicles, they now break more easily when approaching them.
The explanation pop-up should now also only appear the first time. (Hopefully :D )

The gaps should now be mostly cleared up too!

Thanks a lot for your feedback!

[Enoki - Classic]

so fun! love the atmosphere, the squishyness and the soundeffects. the first time i played i got stuck where theres only a small passage and then died. i didnt play the tutorial, cause i didnt even realize there was one. so that was kinda frustrating. i dont know if the ability to split into smaller mushrooms is even necessary for this game, the mechanic is so fun even without it.

overall, a very polished and pretty game, that definitely is worth playing several times :) (especially for the extra skins :D )

EnokiTheGame responds:

Thanks for the feedback!
You will be happy to hear that we just published a new version where the player gets asked if he wants to play the tutorial when starting for the first time. :D
Also we're working on the splitting!
