Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mya's Pizza]

This game was just okay. I admit I didn't know how to click on the skateboard to upgrade it. I don't know why a rat is delivering pizzas. Oh, because they contain cheese I guess. Well, rats aren't even attracted to cheese. Mya's an odd name.

I guess with the "M" it's a mouse. I'm using a laptop. I don't even have a mouse! That's such a lame joke. You're way more talented than me in that respect.

[42 blocks in 7 and one-half minutes]

Yeah, I hated this game because I wasn't quite good at it. At first, I thought you just had to jump. I'm glad I looked at the instructions. First review! Wait, has anyone said that here before? People mention how annoyed they are at "First" comments all the time here.

I guess we don't have a rule for that. I remember Aasvi Mandvi's voice! I hate him for appearing in "The Problem With Apu". I didn't know which buildings I could land on. This deserves its low score.

[Boxbrawl Delivery]

This was an very enjoyable little game. It was extremely authentic to the original "Donkey Kong" game. I mean, everything looks just like it did. I didn't even play that game much. It was indeed about delivery. Oh, we're out of Mario movie jokes?

It wasn't a brawl. Now if this was combined with "Super Smash Bros", THAT would be even better. I thought you could jump on the enemies. They're little Mousers. I know this will be the best Ludum Dare submission.

[Slasher Click]

Yeah, this wasn't for me. I've played a lot of RPGs that were much more fun. This was just seemed too repetitive. I wanted an actual playing field. The designs weren't very creative. I was at least motivated to go on.

I had no idea we'd get so many of these submissions for Flash Forward 2023! It's like Flash never left. You need a more interesting environment. I thought it would be like a slasher movie. It was at least an okay setup.

Kwing responds:

I don't really understand what you're saying. It's visually repetitive? The gameplay is repetitive? The visual designs are uncreative? The game design is uncreative? What does an "actual playing field" mean?

[Cargo Truck Racer]

Well, this was kind of a mixed bag. I mean, the graphics were fantastic! They were truly amazing! I was impressed at how a game like this could even do that. It was just too hard. I didn't know why hitting a cone would blow up your truck.

It was certainly challenging. I'm glad you didn't get a medal for not losing any cargo. I could never get that one! I NEVER need to speed up with this. I appreciate everything the work put into the graphics at least.

[Portal Defenders: Fast Break!]

This was a well put together game. I will admit that I'm just not into sports games at all. Congratulations on being the highest rated submission for Flash Forward 2023. We've gotten good variety for this. I just don't really care about sports. I don't play them in real life.

Wait, real life? I'm not thinking of murder simulators. I thought this would be a new version of the old "Portal Defenders" game. We do in fact rarely get sports games here. I'm still not complaining.

[Go, Go, Cupid!]

I'm not into dating sims, but this was great! I mean, it's mostly because it wasn't about porn. I understand visual novels a lot better now. I never knew I was so bad at Hangman. Happy 420! Wait, this isn't Valentine's Day!

Have Marijuana Man appear or something. It was just fun to see these great drawings. Well, they were mostly drawings. I thought the clock was a count-down at first. This is easily the best submission for Flash Forward 2023!

[A Dress Up Game]

I'm not into Dress Up Games, but this was actually quite good. The best part was probably how easy it was to get the "secret" medals. No, I don't have them all. You should be able to figure it out on your own. This was very tongue in cheek. Boy, was that unsexy.

Honestly, this might have been the best of these Flash Forward submissions. I honestly haven't been a fan of these at all. I also love the simplistic title. I thought those arrows were all part of the same thing. They're hard to grasp.

Cyberdevil responds:

Haha, I guess you could say that. :D Not the sexiest foundation for a dress-up game for sure...

Really appreciate it Ericho! Glad you enjoyed this even if you're not in the 'genre' overall. Good feedback in regard to the arrows, didn't want them to take too much space so I kept 'em small, but could've probably made them a bit more intuitive. Different visuals, overlays, different placement maybe...

[Space Quiz]

It's weird to say that I enjoyed playing this. I mean, it's pretty cheap all things considered! I recognize "Carmalldansen" anytime of the week. I really did get quite far with this. I thought it would be nothing but joke questions. Wait, maybe that would have been funnier?

It's so weird I found this to be far better than the highest rated submission here. I thought I was a critic! Happy Flash Foward 2023! Oh, and also 420. I know more about space than I thought.

fe3l1ngsk1lled responds:

420 indeed! :3

[Torture the stickman]

I admit to not being the biggest flash of this jam. I mean, Flash Forward. This was still pretty enjoyable. I liked the brick one the most. I do remember games like this. Congratulations on being the thumbnail!

I guess I'm seeing more stick figures. That's definitely something old! Stick Slayer won after all. I mean, we are killing the sticks we still have. The re-do button looked like a smile!

Thanks for your review!
