Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[You Have One Box]

I was pretty impressed by this game. I will say it wasn't the best the Ludum Dare 28 had to offer, but still decent. I like how complicated it can get even though the graphics are simple. This shows you can make something good in this short a time. The most annoying part is how you have to control him when he's on the box.

You really have to bring the box up on the exact level. While the design was simple, it was still quite nice. I think the music is pretty cool too. It's all around good game. My favorite is the level t all the blue buttons.

[You Only Get One Face]

I found this to be a pretty easy game, mostly because I could just do anything and come up with a medal. It was probably a bit too easy that way. I still think it's okay. There was just not much going on at all. I can't blame you for a game made in such a short time. I still have played games that did a much better job.

I guess a barber game is pretty original. The music was fairly good too. I like how much it seems to be from the Gay Nineties. Historians won't snicker at that one! I just don't want to have facial hair.

[Shine]

I was quite impressed by this. I didn't know this was part of the Ludum Dare. Looking back, I can now see that it does look like it was made in a short period of time. It's still a very good game. What I think makes it so good is that it really is an original concept. You don't really have any enemies in this.

I like how the light itself can hurt you. Well, not so much hurt you as cause you to lose a life, which I guess is hurting. I appreciated how it was done with graphics too. Thanks for the easy medal(s)! It really is pretty innovative.

[Candy Raver]

I found this to be a fairly enjoyable game. I did have the complaint of how hard it was on the second level. It just seemed impossible to get the right angle. I also think that the graphics could have been better. It was a bit hard to even see that those things were candy. It still isn't bad at all.

I like games where you can float with fans. It's just a very cool concept to me. The music is fairly good. As it's December, it really does remind me of Christmas candy. It's simply quite popular around that time of year.

EggysGames responds:

Thanks, it's a very old game now of mine I didn't realise it still got plays at christmas so thats great. Yeah the game was a little too hard lol, needs toning down. Thanks for the review.

[Jerry's Merry Christmas]

I'm not into point and click adventure games much, but this wasn't that bad. I think it's a pretty nicey done game. I was able to collect quite a few things, even though I couldn't really use them well. It also helps that this is so much in the Christmas spirit. I just now remembered I bought a new laptop! You're the first review where I've mentioned that!

The sounds and voices are pretty nicely done. It does kind of make the mistake of being a bit bland. I can still appreciate slice of life stories. Speaking of Jerry, I wonder if he has a Festivus tree? It's a pretty realistic environment.

[Rolley-Ball]

I was really impressed by this! You deserve the awards you won! I am so glad that you have an innovative game. I actually have a small game I got in a Happy Meal or something, that was Frogger or something. I still play it sometimes. This was almost the exact same thing.

I am so glad that you didn't die by touching any side. That would have reached "I Wanna Be The Guy" levels. I don't really know how you gain points. I just liked the three dimensional look of everything. It's simply a very creative game.

[Cosmic Crush]

I found this to be a good game. I would have liked it if there were arrow keys that were pointing to where the next smallest one was. In games like "Fishy" you don't need them because you can see it all. That being said, I still found this to be an enjoyable game. The designs are actually fairly good. I like the idea of being able to turn into a planet.

I know that breaks every law of physics, but I don't care. The sounds are fairly nice too. I thought I had completed a level when I was just restarted it after colliding with a planet. I thought it might have been my goal to go there. It truly is well detailed.

[Finding Christmas]

I was pretty much into this. What I did not like was the one level I could not get past, figures. I turned the switch on but it came on too slowly or something. I still liked this game. It's still to get into the Christmas cheer. I hope this gets into the 2013 Christmas collection.

The music is very nice too. There should be more renditions of classic Christmas carols. I like it how you can never really die. It does get a bit repetitive in that sense, though. You certainly have lots of oppurtunities to win.

[Tied Santa Escape]

I admit that this was a pretty weird escape game. I don't understand how Santa can do all that stuff being tied up. It would have made more sense if he wasn't tied up and just locked in there. I managed to at least find the lighter. Unfortunately, you can't use it to burn the ropes, not that it would make up difference. I actually managed to get further than most of these games.

The graphics could have been better. It's annoying how you have to work hard for any medal. I'm really stuck on the blue pieces. It's a pretty nice Christmas game. For the most part, it worked out.

[Comet Blaster]

It's nice to play a game better than the ones I've been looking at. I don't know why, but I am just no good at controlling games like this. I do like how you can really rapidly fire. It's kind of sad to see so much of it go to waste. Wait, am I caring for the blasts I'm firing? The enemies have more emotion than those things!

They don't look that much like comets, but more like artificial satellite. The gameplay is quite straightforward. I still can't really understand how the health works. It's still a decent game. The sounds work pretty well.
