[Package Man]

Fun game, but the existence of the 15 and 30 package medals makes me think I'm going about this very wrong, and I have no idea what it could be. That's super frustrating.

CaperCube responds:

to be fair, I MAY have to to lower the 30 point medal as I haven't even gotten it, lol

[Nauryz's The Game]

This game is fine if you're medal hunting, but not really fun otherwise.

Dropping objects seem basically random, so if you're having trouble getting 24 apples, just stand in one place. You have the same chance of getting an apple, health up, or spider, and eventually you'll win.

Estimate, they just sent me a request that I was participating in the project, I didn’t even know about it at all, and if this game received 0 from everyone, I wouldn’t even be surprised, I just hope that someone recognizes me

[Tute Escape]

The base mechanics of the game seem fine. Movement acceleration is frustratingly slow, and the targeting takes kind of long to get used to. Overall, the biggest issue is that there's often unavoidable damage due to the placement of the monsters and where you enter new rooms, which is a HUGE no-no in roguelikes.

Edit: also, medals aren't working for me.

Sorry About That

[The Time I Was Stranded in Some Planet]

This is great, I love how the mechanics are all gradually introduced, and that you need every one of them to complete the game, particularly at the end.

Really fun!

[Super Sneaky Inc.]

This is a cool twist on your escape game genre! Nice job!

selfdefiant responds:

Thanks!

[idleHimiya]

This is a really interesting idea. In its current state, though, there's not enough feedback from the game for me to tell if what I'm doing is right or not. For example, I know that a basic combustion equation will produce water and carbon dioxide, but entering the equation doesn't result in anything happening. I know I have enough reagents to perform the reaction, but nothing happens! Is the input super sensitive to formatting or something? I really want to like this game, but it's not fun in its current state.

[You Have To Burn The Rope]

It's nice that the game tells you exactly what to do. I've tried to kill the Colossus with my axe for 15 years now and it's still never worked.

So glad this classic is working again through Ruffle!

[Tankmas ADVENTure 2022]

This project (and all Tankmases) represents the culmination of what an amazing community of artists, game developers, and overall lovely people can do when they work together. Obviously it's not perfect, but we love you all despite that.

The Newgrounds community is what it is because of collaborations like this. Thank you for putting the time in to do this every year!

Albe responds:

Thanks a lot, Mr. Guthrie!!! Have a nice year!
