Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ditto]

I could tell what the overall tone of this was going to be. It really turned out to be even better than I thought. I knew it was too easy at first. It was really cool to see how you could coordinate with yourself. I didn't know what would show up. There is, of course, this one level that I can not advance.

I thought the artwork in this was just gorgeous. It seems like something straight out of a Miyazaki film. If I was better at it, I would have given it the full five stars. The sounds were wonderfully done too. It's just a truly pleasant game.

[Revenge of the Stick]

This was a pretty good game. I really should just stop mentioning CyberDevil in my reviews. I thought the music was quite good. I kind of wish there was a button that could speed up everything. It does remind me of some better desktop defense games. I know it's wrong to compare it something I like more.

I do think it's an interesting premise, if not that original. I never knew those obnoxious paper clips would ever come in handy. I couldn't seem to summon them all at first. I think I had to get experience or something to get them all, not just gold. I also wanted more gold.

[String Avoider 2]

While a good game, not a great game. I do like how there are some unexpected things going on. I am a little confused as to how hard it was. You would be surprised at how carefully you have to set everything up. It really taught me patience. It seems like a game like this would be something you'd play quickly.

I thought the line just moved quickly all the time. It was interesting to find out that it just depended on your own pace. That really is an interesting way to test yourself. It is pretty worth looking at. I like games that get to you psychologically like that.

[Kane the Ninja]

Here's another game that I found to just be mediocre. It didn't have much detail in it or anything. It seems like most people agree with me in saying that this is pretty average. I wish you could have more health. You just get hit once and lose. Then again, you could view that as being fair to the enemies.

Not that you would ever want to do that to enemies in a web game. I think the sounds are quite good. There should have been more detail, too. Again, I wasn't really motivated to continue with the game. I do like ninjas, though.

[Mo'bike]

This wasn't a very enjoyable game. I think the main problem was that there was no sound. It seems like you should have that in any game. I'm not sure what the title was a reference to. It just seems like a dated title. I still appreciate the graphics.

Everything is quite well detailed in this. I like how you run, or drive, with such a simple concept. It also doesn't help I'm not good at it. I'm not motivated to do better. If it was a better game, I'm sure I could.

[Super Frisco Frenzy]

I really like this game! The only downside is that it's disappointing to not see myself get a higher score. I mean, I am the most prolific game reviewer in the world. I won't mention that much anymore. I just love how simple this is. You can just keep on blowing stuff up over and over.

It's just sheer fun from beginning to end. There were some periods of inactivity. I was surprised at how they even existed. It was just enjoyable to have all this insanity go on. A pity it won't become as popular as your pornographic games.

[Yakuza Rising]

It was cool how much I could get into this game. While it was quite repetitive, I still enjoyed the heck out of it! I think it was mostly because it was just fun to shoot your enemies over and over again. I still die fewer times than they do! It's nice how it's so easy to understand. I think the graphics are actually quite good.

I like how they yell "murder" right as they're dying. That does suit their last words. I wish I had some of those. It really is pretty easy once you get down to it. Going on the tops of the buildings give you fewer points. Besides, it's no fun that way.

[D-Pression]

I'm surprised at how much I could get into this! I have gone through depression in my life, so that came off as neat. I am glad you were able to go into so many people's psyche. The music is really good too. I just enjoy the atmosphere. It probably could take place in the deepest part of my mind.

Maybe not too deep, the images aren't that complicated. You really knew how to tell a story here. I appreciate how complicated it could be even though the design was simplistic. This really is one of the better examples of that. It even reminds me of when I used to play piano. I'm glad to have played this.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Wow, thanks!
I actually haven't gone through depression myself, but I know several people that have been/are suffering from it D:

It pleases me to see that I succeeded in creating the athmosphere, since I personally love the "psychological" games bet myself :3

And yes, I'm fully aware that my art/animations aren't top notch. I still think I did okay though, but it could be much better :p

It's good that you enjoyed my game, and thanks again for the review!

[Super Marshmallow Kingdom]

You know I was more motivated to beat this game because of those medals. I knew it would be a game where you got upgrades and stuff. It seemed more like a platformer at first. I like to see all those marshmellows and stuff. Why is spellcheck on my review? The graphics are quite good.

I liked to learn how to get different combos and stuff. While repetitive, I do love how sweet everything is. I mean that in all senses of the word. This seems like an episode of "Adventure Time". And you thought MLP was the only happy kingdom out there.

[Cavern]

This is a really confusing game. I didn't even really understand what I was supposed to do. I thought it would just end when I got out of the cave. I will admit that it's quite an ambitious game. I appreciate how good the designs are. You really are encouraged to make use of whatever you can in this. The music is nice and creepy too.

Caverns and dark places are great locations to work with. I was in no way expecting to stumble onto this ancient world. It was also nice how I could take the game slowly. While not great, it worked out well for me. I appreciate the interesting environment.
