the gameplay looks very solid, albeit too similar to alien hominid. the fighting and animation look pretty damn amazing i'll admit, thats always true with synj.

but i HATE the premise. isnt this just newgrounds rumble only as a platformer?

i know i say this a lot and its probably just me who really feels this way, but FUCK PERSONAL AVITARS and fuck animating online users / crews as characters in a game. it takes me out of the action so much to know that synj is sitting there going "ok i dont have an original concept so ILL MAKE IT ABOUT NEWGROUNDS!! johnny and stamper, check it out i made you guys bosses!! fuckin SWEEEET!!!!" theres just something too.... egotistical about it?

maybe i just hate the concept because i generally hate NG themed flash that isnt insanely critical of NG

pretty much what f0d said looks like a very fun game but why does it have to be ng related?

Actually this is being made by luis and Bomtoons, not synj.

yeah f0d, luis and bomtoons are behind this and luis is totally in love with newgrounds. I think, even if it's a kind of shitty idea, it will still be a quality game that I'd enjoy playing. + it has zeke in it

luis showed me some sprites from this a while back, I didn't know he was still working on it. It's a lot more ambitious than I thought.

You mean Castle Crashers? Alien Hominid was that shooter game.

It does look really good, smooth animations and all, but after playing Castle Crashers, I have to say that this looks like a straight up mod for it. It looks like the exact same game but with different graphics.

I actually think it looks kinda neat although I'm getting sick of NG themed stuff now

I suppose its better than another smash bros style mixup game though and the animation is fucking amazing

Plus isn't this for like Pico day?
Title: Portal Defenders
Post by: zomfgbie on February 26, 2009 11:29 AM
i never understood pico day

its just an old flash tom fulp made which is terrible by current standards

i mean i understand nostalgia but its such a boring premise to base a day off

thing is, when pico came out it was the most advanced flash game on the internet and was what really started drawing visitors to newgrounds, beginning its growth into what it is now

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Post by: sdrawkcab on February 26, 2009 11:27 PM
I have to admit, its a fun game. But that's probably because I never played Castle Crashers and have nothing to base that opinion off of. Dunno if its a carbon-copy or not. I was also surprised that Egoraptor wasn't in it. I mean after all, Newgrounds seems to be in love with the guy. Wadolf is a pain though, even with the reduced difficulty though.
Title: Portal Defenders
Post by: Kirbopher on February 26, 2009 11:34 PM
Yeah no Ego, no Swain, not even rtil...actually he would've been to hard of a boss fight.

-For Psycho-Goldfish he lines himself up perfectly to be killed. Three well-timed bombs do him in.
-Mindchamber's tough but if you stay out of the way most of the time you can dodge his attacks. Make use of the missile fire every time it's used for some extra damage.
-Tim & Johnny are easy. As soon as Stamper puffs up use air attacks and it's easier to rope the two of them together. Once they're clustered up against the wall it's easy to finish them.
-Wadolf's laser'll hit you at least three times if you get caught in it, but it also kills his madnessers if they get in there too, stay out of his path if you can.
Title: Portal Defenders
Post by: sdrawkcab on February 26, 2009 11:38 PM
I was hoping for rtil. I don't know why, I just kind of expected him to be in it. There were a couple of people in there I didn't know, KK and moderators, mostly.

5 tba members were in that anyways, well if you count Mindchamber and HotDiggedyDemon to be TBA members. They do have accounts here.

Kott, Magyar, Zekey, MC, HDD

"not bad"

                            by: sharpnova (http://sharpnova.newgrounds.com/)                          date: 1 hour ago                               needs a few things though:

 -weapons
-ability to block (little more time to react to the enemy's attacks so u can hit a block button)
-difficulty settings
-save function.. or retries/continues w/e. not really fun to just die and lose all ur work. it's a bit too hard for that.

 implement that then i'll give you a 1.. and give you more advice to earn a 2.




lmfao what a review!

For a game based on newgrounds, luis actually missed a ton of shit

Post by: zNelson24 on February 28, 2009 12:39 AM

Just when I get past the pain in the ass 2nd boss, I had to get killed by Hans and Jerry. They were my faves!


If I ever wind up putting myself in a game, I would be like an easter egg boss. Find the secret for your chance to kill me!!! XD

They should have had the Star Syndicate or Barney Bunch, even the Ducks would have been more fitting then the mediocre Kitty Krew, Luis even says so, but the reason they chose KK is because they have an established leader/head/pinpoint that could easily be cameo'd. It is a good solid game, but I can't play it without cringing too much, too much 'jizz in ur pants over faggoty NG shit' goin on. I usually get to Stamper and Johnny, I would make Wade (obviously the last boss) eat shit, but I would rather be drawing than playing some god damn game.
