Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Math Attack]

It's nice to have an educational game every now and then. I didn't' like this, because it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. It was just flipping cards. It would have been better if you had just told us to solve problems. This doesn't seem to help that much. I'm in statistics class.

This sort of thing doesn't help me much anyway. There should be sounds. I guess it's a harmless game. The equations are correct. You need more entertainment in your edutainment.

[Famous Painting Parodies5]

It's been awhile, hasn't it? These are getting harder, as I do not know of many of them. It's still pretty nice to play though. I appreciate you making all of these. My mom would probably be better at this. I like how goofy they turn out to be.

The music is quite fun too. I guess at most of them. At least I can know some blatant wrong answers. I don't think Miley Cyrus pained anything. Maybe someday you'll include famous fanart!

[Hazard Lane]

I liked this game, but probably not enough to recommend it. The gameplay was truly unexpected. What I liked the most was how it was pretty creative. There were different designs for the houses. At the same time, it didn't make that much sense. The gameplay seemed a bit out of place for the subject.

Well, I guess most games are nonsensical. It's rare you see a real estate game. I like how he yells "Boy!" when being lifted up. It's pretty unexpected. I don't think the name means much.

[Linkaball]

While a bit bland in appearance, this game was still good. Its best part was probably how you were able to do so much with how simple it was. I don't think I've used that exact wording before, have I? I appreciate the nice music. I do kind of wish it was more detailed. Then again, the lack of is part of the appeal.

Yeah, it got harder with the second color. I still thought it was enjoyable. It seemed like a game you could really take your time with. I like stuff like that. Everything just moves well in this.

[Ping Pong Game]

This game wasn't that good or bad. It was pretty much just me doing the same thing. I didn't like it how the game ended if you went off screen. Maybe it would have been too easy otherwise? I did appreciate the graphics. I wish there was an opponent.

It's okay for what it is. You guys have made better. It just isn't very creative. My highest score was 3. At least it is not too complicated.

[City Racer]

I did not like this, because it didn't make much sense to me. It was just me going across some weird places for no reason. I got stuck way too many times. It didn't add up to much. I guess the design wasn't too bad. It took too long to get me out of a stuck scenario.

It's probably too small of an area. You don't have much mobility. That's important in a racing game. Well, I guess this is more of a driving game. I'm not that fond of those.

[Ostrich Underground]

This game wasn't bad. For some reason, I had this confused with the Fafu the Ostrich game by Weisi. We just have a lot of ostrich games, I guess. I thought the graphics weren't bad. The music's pretty nice too. I'm glad you didn't have to avoid the edges. It's still pretty hard with get eating yourself.

It could have been more detailed, though. I don't know what that enemy thing is. I'm glad you can eat him. Looks like you can't pass until every egg is eaten. I'm a bit tired of that music now.

[Sea of Fire 2]

This was more enjoyable than I thought it would be. It mostly works because you get a good understanding of what's going on. I just love to see them blow the enemy up. I'm usually not that good with these kinds of games. This was a pleasant exception. It's hard to believe this did not win a single award!

It's certainly high ranked. The music was great too. I don't think I've played the original. Hell if I could even remember. This was just a great game.

[Dance Dance Carabao]

I'm not that much into these games, but I did like this. I think it's because it's done in such high spirits. I really do like seeing that cow dance. It helps that the music is great too. My favorite is "Butterfly". I didn't do too well. At least it was enjoyable.

I know I could never do this with my actual feet. Well, I never took dancing lessons or anything like that. Hopefully, most people will like this. The design is quite good. It's pretty fun.

[Spring Ninja 2]

I'm surprised that this is not more popular. I liked it a lot! I recall the original game. I think this is an improvement as it was more creative. It also helps that the graphics are really good. I guess this really is more of what ninjas do.

Then again, there aren't many of them around anymore. Stupid Somalian pirates! The music was great too. I liked how I didn't have to touch the flag to get ahead. I just had to go past it.

Dizimz responds:

Thank you for your thoughtful review :)
I personally think this is an improvement as well, but on the otherhand I had to ramp down the difficulty considerably due to demands.

I never understood voting dynamics on NG. The reviews can be quite positive and yet still have a less than mediocre overall score. But that doesnt matter, as long as people out there enjoy it, Im happy
