Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Driftmania]

I guess I'm just not a fan of racing games. It was kind of hard to navigate. I still did like the graphics. It was interesting with how customizable they were. The title's pretty nice though. It's just nowhere near as good as some of your other submissions.

I just wanted it to be like a game where you drove on a highway. I guess this is what racing is for. It's not that appealing as a Newgrounds game. Everyone else seems to love it. I say that too often.

Fair review! This game won't be for everyone

[SUPERSLAP2444]

I found this to be a pretty good game. I admit it was kind of annoying. I didn't know where to even attack! Just aim at the yellow stuff. It's a bit too talky. I still found it to be quite creative.

The bosses have pretty cool designs. Well, all the enemies are bosses. The music was fairly good. That's a fairly weird title. Oh no, it isn't your username.

[Mother's Sword - Web Demo]

How many more games with medals can this Pixel Day have?! The gameplay was great, but I wish I could get more health! I tried to block by pressing "S", but it didn't do much. There were just too many enemies! I don't see how collecting those orbs helped. Uh, Happy Valentine's Day?

Wow, there was a lot of stuff to review today! Everything was quite graceful in this. I wish there were more checkpoints! I couldn't tell what one even was. It seems like I missed one or two.

[Vatis]

I have to admit this wasn't that great for me. It was mostly because I couldn't find it rewarding. I do appreciate that it's kind of a unique game. Wow, we had a ton of stuff for Pixel Day 2024, didn't we?! I'm glad you weren't killed by the X. You just didn't have much control here.

I just wanted to not have to change direction when flying high. I never saw an alien turn white. I could never last that long! I thought that by collecting two I would get to the next level. It really was hard!

[Valentine's Day Art Collab '24]

Holy crap! This has 144 contributors to it! This beats "NG's 20th Anniversary Collab" which had 121 contributors! I had no idea that this would be Valentine's Day cards. I mean, I guess it makes perfect sense. We have relatively few Valentine's Day submissions at all!

I'm so glad to see all these great characters gathered together! I mean, they're not on screen at the same time, but still. It was just incredible to see these wonderful bits of sincerity. There's nothing cynical or anything about them, which is rare for a big submission here! Happy Valentine's Day now and forever! THIS WILL WIN DAILY FEATURE!

M-kirbs responds:

Oh god, it beats the 20th anniversary collab? That's a new record set, WOOOOOO!

[Pinball Breaker DELUXE]

This was a great little game! I wasn't expecting anything that good out of it. It didn't seem very appealing. Instead, it ended up being very stylistic. I'm not that much into pinball games here, normally. I loved seeing that cute little girl there.

It was hard at first, but I got used to it. This was a long game. By that, I mean it was long on the screen. I don't know where the extra balls come from. I'm just glad they exist.

[Hide & Skink]

Oh, Stu's the name of the human, not the lizard. The lizard's name is Skink. That's an odd name. Well, I don't know many lizard names. I got two medals and that was it. Thanks for including a walkthrough.

I had hoped it was a YouTube video. I got further than I thought. I'm just stumped by the locked door. I couldn't tell if the human was male or female. I thought I could do everything.

[Jeri Tower!]

Wow, that was a really fun game! It's quite addictive too. I was wondering why there was that toilet in the first level. The game said I could destroy one. I'm glad I got to one eventually. The enemies and dangers were nicely designed.

It's hard to do that with pixels. You really made it work. I liked the transition to a platformer. Platformers are my favorite games. I didn't realize you could stomp on enemies in that form at first. It makes sense.

succojones responds:

Thank you for your kind words :)

[Uh Oh Bartender]

Wow, I was impressed at how hard this game was! I mean, I didn't know you would even mix alcohol and non-alcohol in it. It was way more complicated than I thought. I'm glad I was able to turn away something. I know how hard it can be to mix drinks. I've seen it done.

What's the point? You'll get drunk any way! I didn't order it myself. Anyway, this was a pretty unique game. You rarely get something this mundane here.

[Death To The Humans!]

Well, what can I say? This has got to be the most frustrating game I've played in a long time. I really had no idea how to get to 5 million. I managed to get most of the medals. I could play this game forever and never beat it. It certainly escalated.

Just seeing these ships fly around over and over was quite hypnotizing. I just HAVE to recommend this for people because it's so addictive! It's repetitive as Hell, but man, do you just want to beat this game. It's nice to see an inverted game. I think I got ten million kills.

blit-blat responds:

Make sure you upgrade your mothership damage as soon as you can. You don't need a full fleet straight away, especially of the more expensive ships, you're better off saving up for damage upgrades than replacing all ships straight away. It's about balance between DPS and saving up. Keep at it, I'm sure you can do it with a little experimentation!
