DavidMarchand's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Feathered Escape]

30m 28s with 29/29 collectibles and 347 deaths! That's 28s short of getting a D, but I'll take it. Very fun, though I would really have liked a regular indication of total levels + the level I'm on. I've no idea what this game even feels like without having done the tutorial first, but I'm glad I tried it right away.

[APOLLO]

¡Re divertido! Como un metroidvañita. Me llevó 6 minutos, encontrando tu oficina y todo, pero la pasé muy bien.

[Mornings Are Hard]

Flawless execution. If only we could really go through all that annoyance in less than 2 minutes.

[Ditto]

This is a great 1 hour-ish game! And a gut punch of a twist there at the end (which I think can't be affected by collecting more gems, but I'm nowhere near close being able to test that). Newground's player indeed can't play this thus far, so I had to go Ditto's page on Nitrome's main site and play it via the SuperNova player, but still worth the trouble.

[Little Office Troubles]

Another great entry in the asdfasdf genre.

[Karoshi Portal]

This takes me back! The whole thing took me about 30 minutes and it never felt unreasonably hard, though of course the flight levels were the hardest and I wouldn't mind them being easier so more people could enjoy them. It could theoretically benefit from two-button shooting, to give the player more control over which portal to shoot next and which already shot portal to leave be. Still, I had a lot of fun and laughed a few times, which I appreciate greatly.

Thank you for the nice review, David!
I didn't realize people would find the flight levels to be so difficult, I guess I'm so used to the controls I couldn't objectively evaluate the difficulty. Glad you found the experience entertaining! :)

[Sometimes It Snows In April]

I follow your stuff since One Chance. Seeing something new from you always brightens my day a bit (despite them being very dark in nature). Maybe you finish one small game every hundred years, but that’s just fine and they’re always so sweet and I will play them.

[Tweetfairy]

Cute and inventive. Makes you hate negative tweets but not more than usual.

[The Diggers Refrain]

This is a good game. Anyone who feels otherwise is welcome to dig a hole and yell their complaints into it.

[Spiderling]

Sweet. Gorgeous. Fun. Clever. Fifth one-word compliment.
