Ferbun's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[PICO VS BEAR DX]

73th to unlock 'Good Toucher' and 50th to unlock 'Save the Day II' here!

This is a cool reimagining of the original also back in 1999 (as I found out), with the Funkin' cameos. (feels strange you foreshadowed WeekEnd 1 a few months before it got announced or leaked I dunno)

Even the final boss was cool (despite the fireballs while playing the touchpad controls). You encapsulated the feel of the original while bringing something new. Gameplay-wise it's better than Pico School DX personally.

I will say that it becomes annoying when Pico run out of ammo during a boss fight (like the first Bear fight and Boyfriend from what I encountered) I know the cheetahs things whatever they're called give some ammo when defeating them, but rarely, they don't respawn anymore. So a smaller reload like the R key would have been appreciated.

And the 'Save the Day II' medal feels a bit tedious to do, and the touch controls could have been tweaked a bit.

So yeah, pretty cool reimagining still!

Dungeonation responds:

Well doooone, and I do completely agree with your feedback lol. The otters can disappear sometimes? Probably a glitch x_x
And YEAH, that joke predates WeekEnd 1!

[The Toybox Collab]

played this while [hold right + spam space and s key] through it, and eating a frosting from Wendy's. A truly gaming excellence!

All that aside, I really like how there's bios on some of the toys. making for some interesting things about them.

M-kirbs responds:

Twas part of the experience, I'm sure everyone had fun writing for theirs, I know I did ^^

[Astro Collab]

69 bots, *nice*

Anyway pretty adorable collab, I love some of the designs. (even the ones who aren't restricted to blue eyes) The few GIFS makes those more adorable, and even the rap of the Astro Bot theme is cool. Kudos to everyone for this love letter to the GOTY winner!

one nitpick I'll say is that I wish It had something like the Pokémon Variance Collab, or the Subspace Collab (even the Astro Bot game itself) as examples where you have option to see all bots through quick navigation, instead of keep pressing left and right a lot. But there are 69 bots, so its not like a big deal at all. Still a pretty nice collab!

DrSaturn2 responds:

Not gonna lie, I thought about that too, but it was already too late to ask everyone to draw their bot facing the front. Wish I came up with that sooner.

[Wanted!]

52 so far! Haven't found myself but yeah. Pretty fun game/collab based on the SM64 DS minigame. I definitely have a reason to come back to this collab, other than just an gallery!

Update: I finally reached 108 (but for some reason the medal didn't register :( )

Update 2: oh wait, it did register lol!

Update 3 (last time I promise): Got all the achievements! (even gooble)

[Twigi's Twisted Costumes]

Very charming from the art-style and music! I really like how Twig responds every time you put on a costume. and the unexpected gore part lol!

(Also any small hints for the very last medal?)

Nebulate responds:

Hell yeah thank you for the kind words. And Twigi was fun to make.

As for a hint: Aapi told me to just respond with "NES". Uhhh... there you go i guess...

[Hollow Floor - Demo]

This game has some fun creativity, like being able to walk on some invisible floor instead of the typical jumping, I can see this game having some potential, I may wishlist it!

amidos2006 responds:

Thanks a lot :) This means a lot to me :)

[Bunny Bun]

Pretty cute solid metroidvania! I liked the music, has a cute silhouette looking art style, and it has pretty nice platforming! My only two complains though is that a few of the characters are a bit generic, and the bosses are kind of boring. Still like it!

ErikSwahn responds:

Thanks. I am quite happy with it myself but could have expanded some things for sure. Although it was supposed to be a compact experience.
