Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Blob Thing's Epic Escape]

While the design was pretty shoddy, this honestly wasn't terrible. I think the best part was probably how you had a clear view of everything. When I beat the level, it just said "You". Then I tried it again and died and it said "You Were". I have no clue what's going on. I don't think it's as bad as voters make it out to be.

I guess you maybe have to collect all the purple things or something. The title wasn't that creative. At least it was one screen. You actually could move around a lot here. It's still not good.

It just saying you or you were is because you don't have the proper font installed. I used Chiller. I don't remember installing it on my Windows 7 PC so I thought it was a standard one.

[Tightrope Theatre]

Dude, this is seriously the best thing at Ludum Dare I have ever played before! It was just wonderful to be able to weave in and out of everything. Sometimes you just had to be lucky. Of course, most of the time it was timing. The graphics were just really cute. I can still tell this was made in a short time.

The music is wonderful. I really did get the spirit of tightrope walking in this! It's nice to have a lot going on. I just got happy seeing that clown succeed at the end of every level. It really is a happy game. This is my favorite Ludum Dare thing ever!

[Time Experiment]

This game was just okay. For some reason, the main character kind of looked like Cornholio. I guess it was just the jacket. It does have pretty upbeat music. What was strange was how the game really was. It seems like most of the time I just got lucky finding out the right thing to do.

I wish it was not like that. I guess it does have a pretty adventurous style. It's pretty unique. The text images were done very poorly though. It was just something easily typed.

[Slimey's Quest (LD31)]

I thought this was a decent game. I was interested in how simple it looked. I thought it would be a really short one. It was more difficult than I thought. Shortness does not equal easiness. The sounds were quite good.

The name is also pretty cool. The music is really nice and fancy. It was nice to see the scenes change as they did. Everything was just flying around. It was neat to see the slow advancement.

[Hyper Wall]

I found this game to just be okay. There wasn't anything that interesting about it. I was able to get a score of 4856 at my best. I assume that translates to 48.56 seconds. It was nice to see those bright colors. The sound was really funky too.

It did get annoying when you kept having to listen to it. I guess I was motivated to complete it. It's fun how you don't know what's coming next. I was eager to see how it would get harder. Not great, but playable.

[CaGe - Casual Genocide]

I was surprised at how addictive this game was! It is just the same thing over and over, but it's fun! I think it was too fast for my computer. It was certainly well paced. I couldn't tell if the faces were based on anything. I think I saw Justin Bieber and/or Mao Zedong in there.

Mao is the kind of genocide. A lot of people forget that. The music is quite nice too. It took awhile for the medals to appear. It's still a wonderful game.

Thank you Ericho! :D
About JB and the rest - not wanting my ass to get sued so I you know the drill - I won't confirm and I won't decline hehe :)

[Arcane]

Ah yes, I can see why this game is so popular. At first, it seemed too boring to really be that good. It certainly got more interesting as it went on! I especially appreciate how it goes on like that. I thought that it would just be one enemy. The name reminds me of Arcanine.

You know, the pokemon? It was quite well paced. You really could run around all you wanted. It looks like a lot of the stuff is just for show. It's still a great game.

[Cave Escaper]

I can't quite understand what it is the voice is saying. Is it "lay low"? I'm glad I figured out how to use the dynamite. It is a pretty stylistic game. Of course, it reaches a point I can not advance. It does work quite well as a puzzle game.

I like how the protagonist looks. He kind of reminds me of some other games about the AOL search engine or something. It's pretty well animated. I like how you have to use strategy. Not that great, but good.

[Rogue Legend]

Well, I did in fact like this, even though it didn't make much sense to me. It seems like I was just going around everywhere and looking at this weird stuff over and over. I admit the game is quite unique. I don't know how to beat the tutorial. There must be something I'm doing wrong with it. Everything was on fire and then a year later, it was normal.

I really do like the graphics in this. They show some really fine detail. I just wish I knew how to make money or something. I'm glad I played this game, because it really is very interesting. Yep, I would recommend this.
