Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pixel Zombies]

I really am a sucker for zombie games. This wasn't one of my favorites, but it was still good. I like how they look in pixels. You just rarely see zombie sprites. They seem to have gotten more popular recently. I also love the music.

It suits the fast nature of the game. It does admittedly get redundant. It's mostly just the same zombies over and over. Still, there is some pretty good variety. Clicking isn't that fun, but hey, it has zombies!

[The Great Biohazard Escape]

I have to admit that this game really frustrated me. It's mostly because the game itself had to be done in a VERY specific way. Yes, I watched the walkthrough. I had to do everything it told me in the exact order! Whatever, 50 points is a lot. It's amazing how much you can do with just two rooms.

I never would have figured any of this out. I just had to do one more thing but I kept getting that wrong. I don't even know what it was at the end that I did. I guess it deserves its status as a Ludum Dare game. I've been busy lately.

[Uncontrollable]

I found this to be really fun! I know a lot of people are going to be turned off by how hard it is. That's probably why the rating isn't higher. Then again, I've played harder games. It was great with how you had no idea what would be in the next level. It's always nice to be unpredictable.

The music was really good too. You just had so many fine details. I really didn't care about getting those orbs. People might be mad there's not a medal for completing ten levels or something. I thought it was a lot of fun!

[Dead Detention 2 #6]

I always like how there are new games to play. I really did like that one minigame where you had to make everything an "X". It was something brand new. I found the astronaut token. It's when he unleashes his yellow power around the middle. It's yellow, obviously.

I wasn't expecting him to die! Well, maybe he's just injured. No, I haven't remembered these characters' names. I just look at the dialogue for the plot tokens. It didn't help me here.

[A Wizard's Journey Day 2]

I found this to be a good game. I admit that it wasn't one of your best. Then again, I am not much of a fan of yours. I don’t think anybody’s made as many consistent games with medals as you. Well, except maybe jack08t. The design is fairly good.

I don’t remember the original game. There are so many of yours, I can’t keep track. I like how you make sequels. It shows good followup. This seemed easy enough.

[SpikeBird]

I admit that I'm not a fan of the Flappy Bird game. Then again, who is? I really do like how it's easier than that game. It is better redundant. Of course, if it was more like the actual game, it would be way too annoying. It's just that it stays in the same place.

I am glad the graphics are good. It's not much, but it's something. I guess the title is pretty self explanatory. It just needs to have more going on. It is pretty much the same thing over and over.

[Abducted]

I found this game to be enjoyable. It was mostly because it just looked nice. I still don't think I have a single medal. It's amazing how complicated it all is. I'm so glad to have a walkthrough. The drawings are really nice in this.

You know how to create atmosphere. I just wish it was easier. It's still fun for me to explore everywhere. I recognize those sounds. This game is fine.

[Hungry Bob]

I felt for sure that this would be a Pac-Man knockoff. I now wish that it was. I had no idea how to get ahead in this game. Hungry Bob moves his mouth way too fast. There must be something in this game that I’m not getting. I don’t hear any sound either.

The design just seems way too simple. My computer is really slow, I imagine. I guess I’ll give it points for originality. It just isn’t something I’m interested in. I’m still glad to see you guys submitting stuff again.

[THIS IS AMAZING]

This game was mostly okay. It was mostly because it seemed way too easy at first. I mean, you just know where you put the next point at! It did get more difficult. That did impress me. I just didn't find it that AMAZING.

It's completely harmless, though. I can see why some people might enjoy it. I mean, it IS kind of an original concept. I'm not too into these Dare games. I just want more detail.

[Super Jelly Blaster]

This wasn't one of my favorite games because it was quite hard. It escalated way too quickly. There just wasn’t enough time to understand what was going on. I guess it just might be my computer. I thought you’d have a score or something. It’s just determined by how many levels you complete.

You could have at least just doubled it on the second level. The music was alright. It didn’t seem too well detailed. Yeah, I know it’s part of this dare, but it isn’t my thing. At least it was unique.

Thanks for taking the time to play!
I agree, I've gotten a lot of feedback about the difficulty. I think the people I tested it on while developing got too good, and I made it difficult for them instead of someone who hasn't played it. There definitely needs to be a better ramp into those tough levels, or just easier levels in general.
As for the music, I'll take that as a compliment! :D Music isn't really my thing, so my goal was to make it not terrible. Gotta keep practicing :)
Again, thanks for playing!
