Grovfu's game Reviews on Newgrounds

['Lair of the Missing Sock']

A sweet jam w/ decent combat and awesome art. I appreciate that the sock ghost's sprite flashes when you're at full charge for the Ha-boo!-ken (sorry) and I was pleasantly surprised to see that you could jump-cancel the slide, which made my second play even more fun than the first one. I also appreciate the checkpoint before the moving plats + bird setup; I have a hunch this was put in to alleviate the difficulty post-layout, but I think keeping the challenge in the same room overall helps distinguish the section via its length.

Only thing I didn't like was the catch-up cam. I think for the full game, it'd be cool to either have holding up/down to look, or to have the camera's Y acceleration tweaked. Also worth mention: You can spam the titlescreen's start input to make the thunderbolts and lightning very very frightening (i.e. loud. Also, sorry again.)

Also, weird thing, I thought this game wasn't working right with my PS5 controller because I wasn't getting movement from it, turns out it's a Firefox issue! Very strange.

Overall, awesome jam! Keep it up.

Thanks for the review!

I must mention that your hunch is quite right, at first levels were going to be short/smaller, but in the process of making the 3rd one more distinct, it ended up larger overall. and good point on the camera details, some small technicalities which can improve quite a bit and aren't actually that hard to solve.

Also, good find on the thunderbolts and lightning, haha!
