Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chamber Door]

This turned out to be more enjoyable than I thought. It is pretty satisfying to be able to understand how to play the game. I am not really that good at it. It did take me from hints to really get going. You truly had no clue what you needed to do next. I really like all the little things that go on here and there.

I especially like the room with the boxes that do different things when being clicked. I don't know if they help with anything, but they're cool. It's been too long since I've read the Raven, or listened to it. That's great music. While difficult, a good game.

[Hello Halloween]

I don't quite understand how a ghost can die. Maybe the spikes are magic or something? I thought the graphics were pretty good. I do think there should have been some more detail and color. While you could have probably guessed this, I like platformers the most. I like how it's easy to understand.

For the most part, the levels are quite creative. The spikes look more and more like teeth. Happy Halloween! Good thing I'm reviewing these October games at this time. It has a nice layout. While not great, still playable.

[Streets of Rolf]

This is a pretty good game, but I do understand its flaws. It just gets a bit too repetitive. You don't really have much action going on per se. There are some interesting things here and there, like the bananas in the phone booths. I just think that's funny. The sounds are pretty nice.

I imagine the enemies are supposed to be users on the site. The red haired one could be PsychoGoldfish and the brown haired one could be Tom Fulp. I think the animation moves very fluidly. I really like the way the monkey punches. He just has funny movements.

[Candy Inspector]

At first, I thought this game would be too easy. I then realized you had to wait for the box to reach that certain area before you could get rid of it. It was interesting to have a game like this. I think that whole thing about putting razor blades and stuff in Halloween candy might be the most famous urban legend of all. It rarely happens.

I will admit that this game was not that well detailed. It seemed too simplistic. I'm still going to recommend it, because you did surprise me with the gameplay. The music's pretty good too. Happy early Halloween this year!

[Superstars]

I was pretty surprised at how much I enjoyed this. I think its biggest strength is probably how it's so simple. It's truly interesting to see how far you can go with something. There are always new obstacles to overcome. I thought it was a level game at first and you were supposed to go through the vortex.

I now realize that killed me. Funny, there weren't any in the long game I played afterwards. There should be more games like this. It's actually quite challenging. Could use a bit more details, though.

[Pinball Deluxe]

As someone who's a fan of pinball, this was mostly good. I admit that it got a little hard for me at times. I guess it would have been better if there was more of a central theme. Most pinball games are like that. While not innovative, this was still faithful to what the game's about. The most annoying parts are the ones where you lose when the ball goes down a certain area.

The graphics and designs are fairly nicely done. Deluxe is always a cool word. I don't like how it how I'm booed. What audience am I doing this for? Well, there must be other people in this theoretical arcade.

[Hit21 Deluxe]

I want to say (or type?) right now that I am not a fan of card games. I have learned at least a little how to play some. I am glad, because I was able to understand this more. Granted, that's because it was easy for anyone to understand. I am surprised this is not more popular. I think people who are more into card games should like this.

It helps that the music is so good. Everything is just set out in a nice manner. You really do get the feeling of a Gary Cooper movie with this. Dang, it's been so long since I've seen "High Noon". Not that well detailed, but a game like this doesn't need to be at all.

[String Avoider: Deluxe]

I was actually quite surprised at how fun this was. That one level is the fourth one or fifth or something like that. I really appreciated how cute everything was. The nice little sounds really made it here. It's not the most innovative, but still good. You really don't know what to expect next in the levels.

30 levels certainly seems like a lot. While it isn't that well detailed, I do like all the colors and stuff. Not a great game, but definitley a good one. It's pretty fun to just look at. I know to avoid scissors.

[Cap'n Zappy]

I didn't even remember you making a game. That being said, I don't think you're that great at all. This game is still playable, though. I like to see all the good animation and drawings you are known for. It is a pretty original idea. I like the springy sounds.

I guess it would just be too easy to have enemy after enemy. Boy, do I lose points for shooting the princesses. I'm kind of curious as to how people on springs could hurt you. Of course, that gun is probably fake. Glad I reviewed this in October.

[Neon 2]

Here is another good game. What I really liked about it was how fast paced it was. It's weird, because that also weighed it down. I didn't like it how the magenta things kept following me. They were pretty dang fast and I couldn't shoot them down right away. In fact, I think I was pretty much doomed from when one was after me.

Even the weapon upgrades didn't help. The effects were rather nice. It didn't need to be that well detailed. It's nice to have such straightforward gameplay. Everything worked out pretty well here.
