Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[FlapCat Halloween]

This is frustrating for the same reason the Flappy Bird game is. I was disappointed it didn't really change. You were just in the same location. I actually do think I enjoyed this. It's mostly because it has really nice graphics. I really am motivated to form strategies.

I guess it's because the game is so short, at least for me. The lack of medals helps too, lol. The music isn't bad. I guess I'm just not good at these kinds of games. It was at least interesting.

[51.2]

Wow, that was a really weird game. I was kind of turned off by how strange the gameplay was. It was difficult to understand. At least I got to the third level. The music's just fine. I guess it probably could have been more detailed.

I didn't really know how to get past everything. A lot of it was mostly a gamble. It's still pretty creative. It just isn't something understandable enough for me. It's a pretty interesting setup.

sorry!

I did not have a lot of time to create the tutorials.
should have explained a lot of stuff a lot better.

just a quick summary of the gameplay:
mouse:
your coursor is a physical object that cant go through walls, pressing the left mouse button teleports your little box to the current place of the cursor.

was/arrow keys:
by pressing w you split your character in two independant characters, controlled by wad and arrow keys. when they both stand still in the same place they merge back into one character (controlled by arrow keys).

[Excite Bike - Trouble]

At first, it was hard to think that this was a game. I didn't search for it on this website. I really did like how it was just you killing everybody. You could lose, though. I thought you were supposed to dodge everyone at first. Of course, that wouldn't be any fun!

The music is nice. I really do love that evil laugh. It shows good style. I'm not that familiar with the original game. It seemed unlikely a movie would have this many views.

[Disorderly - Sagway]

I was a little confused as to how I even lost. I now realize you did so when you let any of them go off screen left. While it wasn't that interesting, I still liked it. It's mostly because you get to beat people up! It's just fun to see the punches and blood everywhere. I thought they'd have health bars.

It's harder than you think. I like how they show no damage after being punched over and over. Anyone of any age would show damage after that! The music is great too. Hey, my grandma's an old person!

[Monkey Madness II]

I couldn't really understand this much. It was just a monkey killing somebody. I'm glad you acknowledge it wasn't a game. But why did you label it as one? There is one part where you choose the ending. It still wasn't that much.

There should have been more sound. I do like monkeys, though. Monkeys with swords are always cool too. It wasn't anything I would recommend. It was just okay.

[Madness Throne (Demo)]

This wasn't terrible, but it wasn't for me. It was hard to understand the gameplay at times. I didn't know what I could hit. It still had some pretty unique graphics. I really did like how you could shoot people. The aerial shots were nice.

I appreciate how it was something pretty popular for the holiday. I didn't even realize some stuff was custom made. That was a nice surprise. Happy belated Madness Day! I hope this holiday doesn't die out.

[Sacred Treasure]

Wow, I feel bad for not being into these games. I usually love your stuff, but this didn't do it for me. I guess I was just expecting more action. I just care too much about getting medals. I liked the graphics. People who are into this should like that.

Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for an RPG. I seemed to have squandered my best things. I'm not into the game enough to go back. I was never into RPGs. I guess it was just too hard for me.

[Arise 2]

That's odd. The medal I got for the 200 meters isn't showing up. I doubt you can ever win this game. I had no idea it would be this complicated. I mean, most of these obstacles look completely harmless! It's just a bunch of blocks.

I was still fascinated by the design. I even like the little bird guy here. It was hard to tell what was a hazard. Most of the time, I just stayed on one side. I was probably just lucky those times.

Mantis1 responds:

Newgrounds.io doesn't come with a visual notification when you receive a medal like the old API. But you actually have received that 200 meters medal, I can see it on your userpage.

Yeah, you are playing the game properly by staying on one side, don't worry about that. :)
