[WINDOWZ XP 2012 EDITION]

This was so awesome, I love how many of these things felt authentic to the time, even small things like 9gag and the jokes. I watched pretty much every flash (except for the restricted one lol) in the flash folder and the laser ones caught me by surprise each time. Really fun and creative, I generally love OS games and parodies lol. Amazing stuff :)

Kolumbo responds:

Thank you! Here's a fun one: the memes on 9gag are actual memes from the day of NG's 2012 redesign, all thanks to the internet archive! we need more OS parodies, love that stuff as well!

[Mazza]

Poop jokes, drawings of willies and balls on walls, crack heads, and much more gave me a great time. Plus the game was actually just fun to quickly play through as well. Awesome stuff, keep up the great work :D

[Mighty Tanker Power Wankers]

This was pretty fun! I really like the style, and the gameplay is neat too. Reminds me of games from back then but in like a really good way, with the creativity and direction and all that. The first boss was crazy but once I got the hang of it I got past it pretty smoothly. Great work to the whole team, keep it up!

[AerPG BATTLE]

Very cool battle gimmicks! I got through the first row of bosses and it was pretty fun, also got a start on the second row too and I love how you changed up the movement. Changing the play area, the different kinds of attacks and projectiles, all made the game very varied up and unpredictable in a good fun way. Keep up the great work :)

[Jeri Tower!]

This is an awesome game! Definitely challenging but I loved playing it so much :D

At first it kind of reminded me of worlds hardest game kinda except with a cool style. But then I got the sword, and then even further I got the mechanic that flips everything on its head and now you can platform... that was so creative and unexpected! There's even more unexpected stuff when you think you're just about to beat the game, but you can't access the original entrance so you have to take a different path. That was super cool. "You'll never beat this one" made me go crazy but I managed to beat the game in the end. Amazing work, keep it up!!

succojones responds:

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the kind words

[A night with the rock]

I think the premise for the game is interesting, and I understood the instructions from the description, but it still feels a bit janky to actually progress. It would also be cool to maybe see the clock or how much time is left. Keep it up!

Edit: If you want suggestions, I personally use Unity (though recently it has gotten a lot of smack because the company did some stupid things with ToA etc.) because it lets you both make games if you're just starting and don't know much code, but also lets you customize them a lot once you learn more. There's also Godot that I heard has been getting a lot of praise, as it's open source and also can do similar to what Unity can :)

souptoopdoop responds:

Thank you for your honesty
I'll try to fix these problems since this was made on scratch I'm currently trying to find a better platform to make games until then I'll have to use scratch

[SUPRA DREAM BEAN GARDEN DRIFT]

The game is a bit confusing, but maybe that's the point haha
The main character is cute, and I like that there are different skins and shoes to wear. The garden itself also looks dreamy in the strange sense, especially around the border. I can't seem to actually get my bean counter to go up, even though I collected around 100 beans so far and put them all in the box. I'm also not sure how you get fertilizer or what the point of the bean box is. I might be missing something though! Otherwise it's a pretty nice game :)

tscoct responds:

Ah, honestly i should probably add like a max counter to the bean box, it caps out at 120 and then flies away and adds the beans to your score, you get fertilizer by destroying enemies, they usually look like grayscale things, you can check for them on the map

[Dino Time]

The game over screen made me laugh hard, I love this game

This game feels like Icy Tower on crack movement wise, visual wise, and honestly everything-wise. But it's so addicting and fun to play. I had a lot of fun going for the highest score and generally love the visuals. Amazing job to everyone involved!!

septicsebi responds:

Thanks dude! Exactly what we were going for

[resting in aids J-RPG]
