Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[ICS II]

I admit that this game was quite unique. I really didn't seem to find any monsters at all. I was confused as to why or when I was on fire. I was able to get some medals at least. The music is pretty good. I appreciate the sprite work.

You create a pretty nice environment here. It still makes little sense to me. At least you have good mobility. I was able to figure out how to burn through some stuff. It still didn't even help me beat that level.

[Confused Travolta Clicker EXTREME]

Wow, that was a very strange game. I believe that scene's from "Pulp Fiction". I wouldn't be a nerd if I didn't recognize everything from that movie. I admit that this doesn't seem like it took a long time to make. It was still fairly unique. It did get pretty challenging.

I wouldn't quite recommend it, because it did get repetitive. I don't know how the mothership thing works. At least it was unpredictable in that sense. The sounds were pretty good. I never know what to expect on this website.

[Escape The Car HD]

I am so glad I got as far as I did. I was really confused by the gameplay at first. I tried combining things, but literally nothing happened. I normally expect something to pop up and say that these things can't be combined. Instead, it was just your own assumption. I guess I'm just bad at these.

It's great that you take a classic game like this. I still don't know why I would be trapped IN a car. It must be some faulty model. I think the design is really good, even though there's not much to see in general. I'm surprised I found so many places to look.

[Jet Pack Jesus]

I guess this game was harmless. I guess I was just turned off by how strange it was. I mean, I'm going around collecting cheese. It just seemed so random. Is it the name Jesus? It does kind of sound like "cheeses".

I'm not very good at this game either. I guess it is pretty unique. It just isn't for me. I only got ten cheeses because I fell down while getting hit by a brick. Those are some pretty big bricks too.

I, for one, appreciate your stream of consciousness review style. This game is definitely strange, but you could probably say that for most of my games. I guess it's just my style, so to each his own :)

[Super Dangerous Dungeons]

Yeah, I ended up really enjoying this! I admit that it got pretty difficult sometimes. That didn't matter, because it was so much fun! My only complaint is that there should have been enemies. I guess I wanted more of a Mario feel to it. I love the usage of sprites.

I could have sworn I saw this before. Maybe it was just the thumbnail? It was almost certainly before 2016. The music was great too. The water level was murder though.

AdventureIslands responds:

This game's a complete remake of Dangerous Dungeons I released in 2011. This version is build from scratch with new art, improved controls and level design, and completely new 4th dungeon. The original game is still playable here: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/583201

[Space Octopus Madness]

Dang, I must have a really big ego today. I just want to excel at every game I play. This game isn't that good. It's just nice how easy it is! Hey, it's been awhile since I've reviewed something while it was under judgement. Those are a lot of bullets on screen.

You really need to have more detail. The aliens all looked the same. They didn't even seem to be advancing onto you. You just stopped when you were exhausted. It's cool when they all line up at once.

[Imperil]

Wow, I guess I am just in a mood to complete everything I play. This was wonderful! It did get confusing at times, but it was all worth it. There was only one boss. I appreciate how creative it is. My favorite level was the first one.

It just seems like it gave you the most freedom. You really can go anywhere you want with that power. It's great how you just discover how to beat the levels as you go along. It's pretty hard to die, now that I think about it. Maybe I'm just that good!

[Super Gonad Smasher]

Wow, that was really weird. Here I was thinking this was some massive video game, but it was just one level. At least the boss had four forms. Four is death, you know. The graphics are great! I so wish there was more to this game.

It should have been more of a standard platformer. I am still glad it was unique. Tom had a pretty small penis compared to his balls. I'm glad there's a game I could beat. The graphics were just gorgeous and I'm glad you had so much mobility, hee hee.

PestoForce responds:

Glad you enjoyed it and it left you wanting MORE! :-)

[Basket & Ball]

I ended up really liking this. Granted, it would have been more enjoyable if I was better at it. It's still a very nice game. This is seriously the first time I've played a game with an anthropomorphic basketball. I'm always glad to try something new. The music is really nice as well.

I got Melodramatic while I go through the hoop after the time ran out. I guess that's how you get it! You certainly come up with some creative traps. It's great to see how a basketball game can escalate like that. It was pretty unique.

[Contra World Challenge II]

That was pretty enjoyable, but I did have one major complaint. Nothing was in English! It would have been a lot better if you wrote down the controls in the author comments. I still don't quite know how to go down. This did make me feel rather nostalgic. I like the title.

It seemed to be just like the game. I don't even know how to get past that bridge. You know how to create tension. The sounds were quite authentic. I didn't even know the game was Japanese.
