Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sketchpad DX]

The free mode was easily the best. I didn't even understand how to really grasp arcade mode. It seemed like it was too difficult. I didn't even know how to advance! All that happened was that I kept on drawing but I never got to 100%. I like other games like this better.

I really am no good at drawing like this. The music was fairly good. It does get a bit annoying as this review goes on. I wouldn't recommend it. At least it's popular.

[Mine Link]

This is a fairly standard game. I think the best part about it was how simple it was. Of course, that didn't necessarily make it good. You really lack detail in this. I thought you had to click on them again to explode. Instead, that was just coincidence the first time around.

The color with the mines isn't bad. It's just that there's so little happening here. It should make more of an explosion. It's easy to make those cool. Nothing noteworthy here.

[Mental]

Sadly, I didn't find this as enjoyable as most people. I did manage to get used to it as it went on. It was pretty nice to learn that I could move around. It's a lot more complicated than you, the player, might imagine. I think the graphics could have been better. I know I've seen these guys before.

How come, when one is defeated, they all get locked up? The other ones didn't do anything! The cartoonish sound effects make it, though. You seem to understand how to make a game like this. Maybe someday I'll like these.

[Swap Invaders]

I thought I would hate this game. Looking at it now, I think it's just mediocre. I was angry by how you could only add to the colors on one side. It was interesting figuring out you could change. If only you could go on top. There still wasn't anything that special about this.

It was just you changing and erasing colors. There's nothing that original about it. The music isn't bad. I guess if you're bored you can try it. There are so many more creative games out there.

[Acid Panic: Turbo]

It's hard to really say anything that good or bad about this game. I really did appreciate how I managed to win the secret medal. I'm quite proud of it. You do get rewarded for your hard work if you get it. It's just that this game wasn't that much. It was just you collecting acid.

I was a bit confused by how you lost. After awhile, I thought if you got acid in all three places, you lost. Now, I'm fairly certain it's three at any time. The music was fairly good. If you want a challenge, play this game.

[The Explorer]

This was better than I thought. I knew it would be too easy to have more than on life. It does seem fair to me. I did have a problem with how it didn't have much variety. Well, at least it was easy to understand. I compliment that in games too much. The sound effects are really cool.

It's nice how precise it is. You know when you've made a critical error. I don't see what this has that much to do with exploring. I have played games that used the theme better. While I wouldn't recommend it, it wasn't bad.

[Viking Valor]

Wow, I was amazed at how much I could get into this! I just kept playing until I died. I do think it could do a bit faster. It's still a wonderful game. You have no idea what monster is going to show up next. The sound effects are fantastic.

I can understand why this won Daily Feature. The spells were great too. I got to beat the first two levels on my first try. I knew my luck wouldn't hold out forever. It's just wonderfully done.

[Flash Gunner]

This didn't seem like anything that special. It was just you firing over and over. You didn't get much of a defense. Well, the wall was nice when it came up. I guess the music wasn't that bad. The graphics could probably use some work.

The colors probably needed some shading. I have played much better games like this before. They have had more style. The sound effects weren't bad. I just wanted something more in this.

[Heaven's Hoodlum]

I didn't like the controls in this game. Of course, I'm playing all of your games. They were all on your old website! I thought you were just not able to do much, except fly around and get destroyed. I even got worse the second time I played. I guess the graphics weren't bad.

The weapons seem to follow me! I would have wanted some means of defense. You'd think a hoodlum would have some! It's too difficult to enjoy. Oh, and I went to Church today.

[Flash BlackJack]

It's hard for me to say that much about this. I think I am slowly learning how to play Blackjack. It's just that there are so many of these games around modeled after it. I guess it's well designed. I was able to get somewhat far in this. It really doesn't need more than what it already is.

The sounds aren't too bad. In fact, they're probably better than most blackjack games. It just doesn't have anything that unique. I guess blackjack players will like it. I'm unfortunately not one of those.
