Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kart Kollab]

Wow, this was very odd. I thought it would be a racing game. Instead, you just observed everything. The best part was easily the !? button. I'm not even going to spoil what happens when you press it. It was very unique for a collab.

I'm sad to say I haven't heard of most of you people before. I'm not following any of you. I mean that literally. I'm not following the drivers. It's still worth watching and interacting with.

Chdonga responds:

That's what rocks about collabs; finding cool people to check out

[Portal Patrol]

This game was very enjoyable! I will admit that it's very difficult. How do you run out of ammo for a knife? Anyway, Pico was probably the best character. You could have used more unique enemies. I don't know where those purple guys came from.

I like the music a lot. You rarely get that many songs for something. Happy Pico Day indeed! I'm glad this won some kind of award. It was quite an enjoyable game.

Tyler responds:

Think of it as you need more kitchen knives to pick up lol

Thanks!

[Citizen Pico: Pico's School IV]

I assume the title was a reference to "Citizen Kane". Well, the rating is quite high. I just don't think it's on the level as "Citizen Kane". I missed the second and third Pico's School entries. This was one weird game. It went nuts when an alternate version killed Pico.

I thought it was "Game Over" after that. Instead, it was part of the story! I didn't know Darnell and Nene were supposed to die. I got a medal, but I guess I shouldn't tell anyone how. I've never heard of Dr. Schmuck before.

Kolumbo responds:

it's a reference to the Troma movie "Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avengr IV" which in itself is a reference to Citizen Kane. Fun fact, Tom Fulp appears in Citizen Toxie - definitely worth a watch if you like over the top gore and bodily fluids. Another reference to Trome is the poster on the left in Pico's room!

Glad you find it went nuts at that point, as that's this game's equivalent to the shooting event from the first - so it was supposed to go all wacky after that moment!

Dr. Schmuck is great - you can find his toons over on PukeBomb

[Heroes of Pico's School]

Wow, what an awesome game! It's great to have something like this make you use so much strategy. I was impressed at how complicated it was. It seemed like I just got lucky most of the time. People don't seem to like it when I give out instructions in my reviews. This music was great.

For some reason, this couldn't load straight at first. I don't know what the problem was. Happy Pico Day 2024! I have officially gotten into the mood for these games! There's always new ways to adapt this story.

[Pico Clicker (Pico Day 2024)]

Oh, I get it. You had to buy the clicks. It wasn't just something automatic. Pico looks pretty off model here. It's like he has a giant chin that sticks out to the side. The music had some nice variety.

I admit I don't really care about these kinds of games. It's literally just clicking. Still, it featured Pico, so I guess it's appropriate. The medals were certainly simplistic. Then again, so was everything in the game itself.

[TIREHEAD]

Short? Yeah, this was indeed very short, but it was still very hard! I mean, I had no idea how to get that far. I still appreciated how hard this was. You really just had to mess with everything. Why'd it take so long for this to get frontpaged?

How odd. Well, it's far more challenging than you think. Sometimes, I think I'm just lucky. It definitely got annoying, but I'm glad it was short. I think it really does deserve its high score.

[Crunky's Fun Rager]

I know that I killed over a hundred of these things. I guess the medal was killing over a hundred of them in one game. That was a lot harder! I admit that it got annoying with how hard it was for such a monotonous game. I do like the gameplay itself. It's very interesting, but not the most enjoyable.

I guess it was interesting to look at. I collected the red coins, lasted over a minute, etc., but got nothing out of it! Even the "Medium" seemed ridiculous. I don't think I've ever encountered a game where it was this hard to get a single medal. You had to lose points for that.

[Dead Estate Dress-up 2]

I was wondering if this was the creator of the original game. It was! I was thinking this game would become a new meme here. I'm sorry, but I wasn't particularly fond of "Friday Night Funkin'". Anyway, I don't even remember the first one. I do wish there was music.

I appreciate the fact that you can't show her naked. That's too much for me. I like that strange star effect when you move an object around. It's pointless, but fun. I wish you could see her eyes.

[Mewgrounds Collab]

Yeah, this really wasn't for me. It was just some pictures. I did like it how you could zoom in on them. The pictures weren't even really that good. I could make better! I just thought that it was too simplistic.

I mean, it was just some pictures that weren't put in some particularly colorful arrangement. It was just side to side. Well, Happy Pico Day I guess! My favorite might have been Chanma's. It's the most well detailed.

KingCrowned responds:

Sigh maybe I should’ve went with Hank instead of a Grunt 😔

[Hollow Floor - Demo]

Well, this deserves props for being a unique game. I mean, that was one odd powerup. I still couldn't get quite far with it. You had to really keep up and pay close attention. I thought the first powerup would be jumping. Instead, it was walking on air.

You still had to be careful. You had to time everything to make sure it was at the right time. You had to make sure you didn't touch the sides. It was definitely a unique game, but it was kind of annoying. It was definitely interesting.

amidos2006 responds:

Thanks a lot :) I know that the game is on the harder side like VVVVVV. I would appreciate if you can identify the most annoying rooms for you, maybe I can simplify them a bit :)

Overall, thank you for playing the game and I am glad that you enjoyed it :)
