Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Monster Love]

This was pretty mediocre. I do like how it has a really cute appeal to it. I can at least appreciate how it's easy to understand. I managed to pick up at least three different things. It seems like you're way too late for Halloween. And I thought people celebrated Christmas early!

The animation is pretty nice. It is a little too cutesy, though. I guess it's just meant to be for younger players. I'm just not into point and click adventures. It's okay for what it is.

[Chaos Christmas]

I didn't find this to be as good as most of your games. It was too simple. I was at least hoping for some mini games. I guess it was unique in that there were none. It's still pretty nice to see this animation. I was annoyed by the lack of sound.

It must be something wrong with my laptop. You certainly have a lot credited! It was kind of different for you. I just wanted something with more interaction. I would not recommend it.

[Perilous Journey]

I guess I can't really say that this was a great game, because it truly wasn't. I still really enjoyed playing it, because of all the easy medals. I really do get frustrated when I can't get any. The main problem is that the graphics were just too choppy. There was little innovation with this. Most of the enemies looked the same.

The bosses were too easy. Then again, I didn't even care. You basically just had to shoot them before they fired bullets right above you. Just keep on firing like any game like this. That side shooting powerup does become useful.

[Halfling Tycoon]

I am not much into RPGs. I still indeed enjoyed this. It's mostly because the design is so good. I'm glad I was able to figure it out pretty quickly. The music is nice too. It's just a really interesting little environment.

I appreciate all the fine details. It does seem like "The Hobbit". I'm glad I just had to pretty much do nothing to get my first medal. I thought those floating things were Bibles. While I'm not that interested, it's fine for a quick play.

[DESEEDER]

There was something I just didn't understand about this game. I had no idea how I even died most of the time! It seemed like something came from the back to injure me! I guess it was still pretty enjoyable. I didn't know we're still doing stuff for this Ludum Dare. The music is great, though.

I really like the style. It's too bad the gameplay isn't easier. I should have figured it just went on forever. I guess more talented gamers will like this more. It just got really hard after awhile.

One of the rules is that you must destroy "ALL" of the seeds, or else you'll feed to plant behind you, causing you to lose a life. Thanks!

[Sprout]

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this! At first, it seemed pretty dumb. I am so glad that there were powerups like legs in this. It's interesting that I even got that far. Of course, at first, the game just played itself. He kind of looks like Sonic.

You know, with the razor like air. The music fit the atmosphere perfectly. I was confused as to why purple stuff was coming out of him at first. I thought maybe you were supposed to go on top of it. There was another game here like that.

[Rancho Ranch]

I found this to be pretty enjoyable. I admit it was a really original idea. Then again, it did get a little boring. I am glad to have come by it. You have such easy medals too! The animation is a little too simple.

It's still decent. Everything seems quite organized. It seems like I haven't played a puzzle game in awhile. The music is also pretty good. While not too elaborate, it doesn't have to be.

kikill responds:

As always, an honest and balanced evaluation. We will use your feedback to make the mobile version better. Thank you!

[From Sprout to Splendor]

I think this was just a bit too simple. I know it's weird to complain about that. It's what you're supposed to do! I still thought you could have had more. It was weird how I couldn't understand the gameplay at first. When I clicked the upgrades, it didn't do anything.

I guess they were automatic? I just started getting better at it without knowing how to. I even got pretty far. The music was nice. It just seems too strange a game to really recommend.

[Ourobos]

I found this to be a pretty standard game. I really liked how it was easy to understand. Then again, I guess most games in this dare would be. It wasn't all that original. I did like the sounds, though. I appreciate how you got popular with this game.

I really don't care that much for most of these. I especially like the jumping sounds. Everything seems pretty mashed up. There isn't really a connected theme. Well, apart from Ludum Dare of course.

[Runaway Rob]

Honestly, I didn't find this game to be that bad. I guess it's because most of the other games aren't even working for me right now. It was kind of creative. There were a pretty wide variety of enemies. Then again, I still didn't like it because it was too simple. It got annoying having to shoot everything over and over again.

The sounds were fine. You could have had better graphics. It's always nice when people put a lot of effort into this. The music wasn't bad. It was just nothing memorable.
