Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tankman Training]

I was hoping that you would be able to choose a Clock. You know, we are approaching Clock Day, after all? I was quite surprised at how this wasn't that detailed. I knew something at the top left part of the games page would have medals. I really lost it on the third level. I had no idea just dragging yourself on the floor could give you so much damage.

I knew there was going to be more to it than just like land mines. I thought you were supposed to step on them at first! I'm just so used to seeing explosions here. That's how it is mostly on the Internet. I think the music is pretty good.

io3creations responds:

I was going to add more characters, but forgot. I've added Strawberry Clock now :)

I have a few ideas for the next versions. Some are very similar to the ideas you mentioned ;)

[Xunmato Alpha Knights]

This game definitley has potential, but I find it to be lacking in some areas. It's mostly because the enemies are never ending and you don't even need to kill them. I don't get much of a sense of when the part of the level is done. It was also a bummer to not be able to pause when you're getting more points. There must be a pause button I'm missing. This is the first thing I can remember reviewing that has no author comments.

I have to give you credit for being different on that level! The graphics are fairly good. I really do like the character you control. You get to find out how to do moves and stuff on your own. It's interesting that way.

Godlimations responds:

I'm surprised people still playing the game. it's pretty old... well, thanks for the review anyhow :/

[#Run3rd The Game]

This was a really strange game. I'm probably only saying that because I'm no good at this. I had no idea he was in all of those other movies. I had really just heard of "The Goonies". I appreciate the unique design of everything. It's just that it's too easy to die.

You are given a lot of oppurtunities to correct yourself, so good for you. The disembodied voice is really weird. I like how Sean just flips around in such a silly manner. I just have so little idea as to why any of this is going on. It was a weird game and you might want to check it out.

PestoForce responds:

Thanks for the review!

[Anski and Blip]

I found this to be a good game. What I didn't like about it was that it just seemed so complicated. There were so many things you had to do to get everyone and everything across. The game itself looks so cute and innocent, I had no idea it would be difficult! Of course, kids need a challenge too. It's a game worth checking out.

I like the cute appeal. The sounds are really good in this too. The music is also really cool. I like how cartoonish everything is made out to be. I wish I knew what these things were.

SeethingSwarm responds:

Thanks for the kind words, and yeah this game can be quite frustrating at times, but it's all about the challenge and cute factor. I have no idea what they are, just cute little creatures I dreamed up from my weird brain :D I worked really hard on everything, including the music and the sound fx, so I'm glad to know you appreciate the outcome :)

[Cole Slaw]

This was one wacky game. I couldn't really understand what was going on. In the first part, I couldn't get anything done by pressing the keys. There HAS to be something wrong with the computer I'm using. I still liked parts of it for being so freaking wacky. You always have to throw your sword to defeat the guys on bikes.

I wish I knew what these enemies or opponent even ARE. I got the trophy after losing. Was I supposed to do that? You definitley made something creative. This was just okay.

DBuck-Eye responds:

I think it's weird that you'd have issues with the race, but not the rest of the game, which may just mean I didn't explain the race very well... As for the enemies, the announcer says what they are, if you stick around for a bit :)

[Zomby Birdy: Save de Pig]

I think this had a pretty good premise. What I really liked about it was how you used the perspective flip. I do wonder why these birds are attacking those pigs. Well, there is a REALLY popular trailer that describes it, but this works well too. I think the artwork is good. The original characters in the game aren't that well detailed.

The sounds are pretty good. I like how crazy the birds sound. That one level I can't beat is the eighth one. I think catapult games are quite cool, especially ones that mix it up like this. At least I got past the first seven leves.

kikill responds:

Pig brains are especially yummy from the fat content? ^_^

There is a walkthrough btw, the question mark button.
All the levels are reasonably solvable, just need a bit of patience. ^^

I'm glad that you appreciate all those details, especially the sounds since I had so much fun recording them. ^^

[Bullriding Explosive!!]

I admit that it was pretty cool to ride that bull. There is just a big problem I have with this. It's just the same image of you riding the bull. I don't even know if you can pull the fuse out once you get it lit. Well, I guess it's better than a game where you die automatically. The drawing is done pretty well.

You do know how to create an intense environment. I guess it gets more complicated as it goes on. I appreciate all the cartoonish stuff you work on. It's what you're most known for, besides porn. I think the appearance holds up well after these years.

Wiesi responds:

Thanks for your review!

[Zombie Crypt 3]

Here is yet another game where there's a point that I just can't get past. It's on the second level with the dirt blocking the entrance way. At least I got a single medal. For the most part, this is a good game. It did take a little bit for me to get used to the controls, but it still worked out well eventually. I like how you get the big picture of exactly what's going on.

It's the kind of game you can really take your time with. The graphics, while not great, are still good. The zombies aren't much of a problem at first. I like how the music makes you anticipate what happens next. I like the little gold pieces you collect.

ThomSip responds:

Try reading the helpsigns, they explain a lot. In the second stage you open the way to the exit by throwing a crate against the "dirt" which blocks the pathway.

[Shape Adventures]

I admit that I was quite impressed by this. I kept thinking that if you didn't skip past the cut scenes, you'd get the secret medal. Of course, you don't, which is why I am mentioning it. At least you don't get it at first, maybe. Anyway, I appreciate how you made a fun game with simplistic design. This may not be that popular, but I enjoyed it.

I think it's because it works so well with its simplicity. I liked stomping on the enemies' heads. There were even some funny sound effects here and there. The music was fairly decent. I love the fake reviews.

Kolumbo responds:

Thanks.

[Hobo 6 - Hell]

Well, I couldn't get that far in this game. I still think it's pretty enjoyable. I think it's because you're in an interesting environment. There are some people you could kill, but they didn't attack you. You should have been able to use the whip longer. I did like it how I could trick some enemies into attacking each other.

The worst were probably the flying fire breathing furballs. Just a few hits and they could attack. I never got a good way of using my special moves. Half the time, I didn't even intentionally do them. I appreciate how it's creative. I recognize the character, but not the games.

SeethingSwarm responds:

Yeah the Hobo series gets a lot harder and much more challenging in the end. There are useful ways to use all the combos in the game, you just have to learn when and where. For example, using a powerful puke attack against one of those fur balls would do them a lot of damage, just keep your distance ;) Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you liked the game and appreciate its weirdness! :P
