Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Forbidden Arms]

I was really pretty impressed by this game. Some of the controls could be better. I admit it's quite funny to see my body keep getting torn up even after I've beaten the level! The graphics are quite good in this. The best part is probably how fast paced it is. You really have to be careful of those shrukens or however it's spelled.

The cutscenes were way too long. I should have gotten a medal for sitting through the first one! Eh, I'm not here to complain, this is a very good game. It's been awhile since I've played a platformer like this. It's pretty big for itself.

glad you liked it! thanks!

[Hungry Little Bear]

I don't know much about the science of bears, but it seems like he would starve from not eating so long. Oh yeah, they eat both meat and plants. I appreciated how good the graphics were. Again, I do think this is a little too cute. There's really nothing that wrong with it, I guess. At least the bear looks happy.

I would think a bear would be able to take on a pig. Of course, this is a game with no fighting. It looks more like a boar than a pig. It is interesting to see what will show up in the next level. While not great, certainly worth your time.

[Dino Shift 2]

I liked this game. I admit that I do think it was a bit too cutesy, but still quite good. The best part was probably how nice the colors were. It's nice to be in a happy little world like this. I even like the little sounds the dinosaur makes. I think I can remember the first one.

I usually review numbered sequels when the first was popular. It's nice to see happy little blocks. They even look funny when they know they are doomed. I just put two tiles in the level editor. That was enough to get the medal.

[Pretentious Game 4]

I have to admit that I was really quite impressed by this. I think the best part was how it really did work out well as a puzzle game. Sometimes, I just seemed to beat the levels by luck. It helped that you could really try anything here. I guess I just wish it was easier. What little detail you have works quite well.

I like the music too. It's important to keep calm in a game like this. It reminds me of the shape series. It's just a nicely put together game. You don't need more detail in this.

[Biggification]

I thought this was a good game. It helped that it was pretty easy to follow. Am I just getting dumber myself? I really liked the soothing music. The background was pretty cool too. While it wasn't that special, I found it to be good. It really is more complicated than what you would think.

The title is pretty cute. Yes, it could have been more elaborate. It didn't really need to be that way. I just found it to be good for a quick play. It is decent.

[Weird Fighters]

While not a great game, certainly a good one. I mean, I really do like how they do have good distinct designs. That black masked guy reminds me of one of the angels from "Neon Genesis Evangelion". Actually, I think that's a common theme in anime, as it's like No-Face in "Spirited Away". I thought that guy was a goat, not a llama. I never really noticed how similar they are.

I like how easy it was. My biggest complaint was that it seems like it could have been better with how long it took to beat an opponent. Then again, this whole thing is a bit ambiguous. I'm not sure you even really advanced in this game. It was fairly well done.

[FamousPaintings Parodies3]

I don't think I played the previous entries. Yeah, it's rare to find a game where I haven't played the previous installments. I don't think this is really helped by the fact that my mom paints. She doesn't really look at a lot of the more well known pictures. There was a time where I was really into paintings.

I still appreciate them. It's great to see these nice and funny art pieces in themselves. They are quite entertaining to just look at. You really don't know what cartoon character is going to show up next. I know Tchwaikosky wasn't a painter.

[Red Team]

Wow, I had no idea this game was going to be that hard. It's just that the design looks so simplistic. I must have something wrong with the keyboard I'm using. Okay, I'm going to stop blaming my new laptop for everything wrong with the games, now. I guess you could have put more detail into this. A pity this game declined so much.

The music is fairly good. The game confused me with how hard it was so much, it's as suitable as anything else. I really don't know how to sync my fingers up. I feel like I'm in Neon Genesis Evangelion. It works pretty well for itself.

[Dark]

I have to admit that this is a really game! I love how I just have no idea what's going on. It's hard to ask for more detail, because that is not the point of the game. I really like how everything moves so well. Even the parts where the screen goes blank aren't that difficult. I'm fairly certain those silhouettes are checkpoints.

It's just a game that seems to have no end. It's mostly because everything is so dark. Oh yeah, that's where you got the name. It seems like the protagonist keeps transforming. Not sure what that's all about.

JackAstral responds:

lol thanks!

[Where's Derpy? 3]

Aww, I love this game. While it's not that innovative, it works because it has freaking Derpy in it! I just love how sugary sweet everything in this game is! You get a wonderful sense of being in Ponyville. I believe these are all real still frames from the show. I think you added the muffins, though.

Funny, she only mentioned muffins once, but now has a weird obsession. I thought I had seen this before. It must have been the previous installments in the series. The music is great too. And hey, you did submit this on the day an episode premiered, specially the Breezies one.
