Reviews for "[BTNverse] Saccharine playground"

Another great game. Took me awhile to get going but after that I was on a roll. It's always great to see you implement game mechanics in an interesting and meta way.

thanks for playing 'till the end :)

I made an account in Newgrounds just to comment on this game. This game...
At first it was very confusing. Enemies everywhere, I get very random effects everytime I touch one of them, no real clear goal in sight...
Then I started to pick up the items. And it really depends on which one you get first for the emotional impact of it. But I can safely say that this game is one of those special games that manage to push the boundaries of gameplay
It's a very simple game, which starts with annoying, difficult to avoid enemies, but progressively goes into the uncanny valley territory as you complete more and more of the map. By the last three, I was saying sorry to each of them, because they helped a lot with exploration and such
Figuring out the mechanics was, again, kind of a grind, but later it became fun to plan which item to get first, in order to remove certain roadblocks
The final stage was going great, until I realize that I was being chased. Never will I be more creeped out by a "boss chasing you" stage in my life. And claws. Especially claws
If I had to judge based on your other titles, you show a lot of potential for a game developer, with a lot of clever ideas. I hope that we get to see more from you, and that life will go well for you

Thanks a lot for the very kind review <3
I plan on releasing one or two games every month on Newgrounds, so you'll definitely see more work from me in the future!

I really like this game. It was challenging and made me use my brain and I like games like that. I have one question tho, can you add medals to this game?

adriendittrick responds:

I'm not quite sure how nexgrounds medal work, I'd need to familiarize myself with the API :p
Although since I multi-host on itch and gamejolt as well, medals might b a problem.

the message this game brings (in the Claw god) really show what happened to today video game industry being from challenging difficult to easy boring. there few thing I like to talk about this game. but I think its best to say via PM.

adriendittrick responds:

Yes please I would love this PM :)

I loved it. So creepy. Took me a little while to figure out how to defeat the gourmet. The final level was epic.

Thanks for reaching the end :)
