User blog comment:Superyoshibros20/Say your favourite Nitrome game and your non-favourite Nitrome game/@comment-3060206-20140119052248

Well look who showed up late to the party.

Not in any particular order, but...

Games I love:


 * 1) Plunger - I'm going to go with this one because it's probably the only game from 2013 that reminds me of "classic" Nitrome - art style and gameplay wise. Oh yeah, and the music. I looooove the music to Plunger. It's not very fun to play on Touchy though. D:
 * 2) The Bucket - The Bucket is a frustrating game, especially if you're trying out for the "get the later levels in one go" run. The visuals are pretty to look at, and the music suits the game well. This game probably has one of my most favourite endings of all Nitrome games.
 * 3) Mallet Mania - I love Mallet Mania. I know it doesn't really have any characters, but I love the design of the courses and the lighting of the graphics. It's so minimal, I sometimes imagine characters from other Nitrome games playing in one of the courses. The music was what I first fell in love with, though. After hearing it for the first time, I played Mallet Mania for three whole days ('cause I'm slowwwww at beating games) until I beat it.
 * 4) Final Ninja Zero - This game is just fast paced and epic. There are many different ways to play this: for the story, the money, the speed...sometimes I find it hard to believe I didn't catch on to the hype when I first played the Final Ninja series.
 * 5) Headcase or Rockitty - GAAHHH I don't know! Headcase is so silly as it is cute but it's really difficult, and Rockitty is so vast yet small and pretty easy to pick up. Don't even get me started on all these other games I missed - Rubble Trouble Tokyo, Fat Cat, Feed Me, for starters.

These are a few off the top of my head that I remember hating:


 * 1) Sky Serpents - I don't know, I just never liked this one. I've tried to play it several times, but I keep falling off the serpents or just not landing hits on them. It's so dull for me. I like the warrior's personality though. Don't know why.
 * 2) Twang - Twang was pretty fun until level 9. I've come really close to beating it, but the rage there was too much for me. But that must have been a couple years back...maybe I'll like it this time.
 * 3) Nebula - The behaviour of the new born sun to the trail of stars is very unreliable - and it's the only way to control the main character.
 * 4) Toxic series - I find this game too...clunky, I guess? The movement of the character doesn't sit well for me.
 * 5) Pixel Pop - It's kind of ironic when you think of it, because I love being able to keep the beat in music. But this game was more about focusing on the timing of the levels themselves rather than the beat of the music, in my opinion.

Finally, there was time.
