Treasure Hunt review!
### Aesthetics: 8 / 10
Lovely Pico-8 pixels.
### Originality: 2 / 10
What's new here? There are so many suika games on Newgrounds alone, but many of them have at least one distinguishing characteristic. The thing that distinguishes your game is the incredibly elastic physics. Not only do pieces bounce a lot when they drop, they don't ever seem to sit still.
### Challenge: 7 / 10
The pieces seem to build up energy and then launch themselves at the top of the screen making me lose. The first time I played I only made it to 51 points because I died trying to drop a cherry. I quickly learned that cherries are a liability but they just keep coming and I can't stop them. The usual suika strategy is still at play here but I feel like I just have to get lucky with the unfair physics.
### Fun factor: 8 / 10
The fact that everything feels like it's constantly in motion does lend a sense of excitement.
### Content: 3 / 10
Just a small set of fruits on a playing field. I like the inclusion of a wiki.
### Total: 28 / 50
(The Treasure Hunt review score is different from the standard Newgrounds review score because it uses different criteria.)
Just like the original but pixelated and on new grounds!
The physics are abysmal in this version, but it honestly adds to the charm.
