Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Merged Gravity DEMO]

I think the rating should be higher. I mean, it's not the best game out there. It's perfectly serviceable. I knew it would get a lot harder later on. I was really stuck when I ran out of charges. I can't play this game forever!

Yes, it was simple but good. The graphics were indeed nice. I'm surprised I got past the first appearance of the spikes. I'm glad there was a full screen option. I even thought the music was pretty good.

ChimeraDev responds:

Thanks for playing! The game is around 40 minutes the first time you play it! Its quite hard but it's fun to try again! Hope to see you finish it eventually! :)

[Fantasy Madness: Bloodbath]

Wow, this was absolutely fantastic! I had no idea it would be this addictive! It's a pity I can't get any better at it. I mean, my number of kills doesn't go up! It's hard, but still wonderful. I love the variety of enemies.

I wasn't even sure what the crystals did at first. I then realized they were used to level up. With such a large screen, I can't take everything into account! I hope this stays up for a long time. My favorite powerups were probably the killer rabbits. Yes, of course I love "Monty Python And The Holy Grail".

[Pixel Mania!]

Well, the game was definitely playable. I just had no idea how to get a single gem or anything like that. It reminded me of the "Crash Bandicoot" games. I never could get all the boxes done! I didn't even realize there was a timer. Ignorance truly was bliss in that case.

The game was too easy with that gameplay. The extra stuff was quite hard though. You deserve some credit for that, I suppose. The graphics were decent. It was kind of too simple and too hard somehow.

blit-blat responds:

Too simple and too hard at the same time is the absolute sweet spot! There's a walkthrough here if you need it:

Thanks for playing! :)

[Split-shot West]

Well, I guess the gameplay was unique. It just wasn't very interesting to me. I mean, you should have just been able to shoot while you were active. It seemed too overly complicated. Well, it was like an old Western. It just didn't quite work for a flash game.

Please don't take a sip every time I thank someone for an easy medal. Well, just read my movie reviews instead. This was still stylistic and I liked the music. It just isn't for me. At least it was easy to follow, I guess.

[Watch Paint Dry]

Well, that delivered on what it was supposed to. That secret medal was far easier than I thought. I mean, what else were you supposed to do? Of course I noticed it sold 420,000 copies. I'm glad there was music. I mean, what else do you need to do?

There's tons of YouTube videos where it's nothing but a blank screen with a song. You knew how to spice it up. I now noticed the 69 number. Dang, you noticed how to use your numbers! Well, there's not much else to notice in this.

Little-Radiodemon responds:

Nice

[Egg Time Rewind]

This game was fairly addictive. I will admit it could get kind of annoying, but I got used to it. The graphics were so simplistic, yet it was still very hard! Those big meteors got really annoying. It was hard to tell what I was supposed to collect and what was a projectile. Yeah, it could have been more detailed.

The sound effects seemed rather suiting. I didn't know you'd have a fairly high variety of enemies. There was certainly a lot going on. The little round guys were the most annoying. They were the first enemies to actually fire at you. It was as fun as I thought.

KilledByAPixel responds:

thanks for the review!

[Spent Shells]

I liked this game a lot! I thought it was very impressive with how you had no idea what enemies would appear next. Medals always motivate me! The music was great now that I listen closely to it. I thought I'd be able to beat at least one boss. This was just a great game.

I don't know how these levels, or rather rooms work. I'm sure they're all random. It gave me a great sense of exploration. I'd think a game with shells would feature Mario. It's fun in any way.

HelperWesley responds:

Glad you enjoyed it. The rooms should really have some kind of portal or smoke effect at the doors, because they are completely randomized each time you walk in to a new room. 😅

The shells was meant to be for bullet shells, but it does sound like a Mario thing. 🤔

[Game]

Wow, this game was really hard. I didn't even know how to play it at first. I then realized you selected the levels in that tree. That didn't make it any easier! I do have to praise you for not dying when you fell down. It didn't make it any easier though.

The music was quite good. More talented people should enjoy this. I wasn't motivated enough to advance very far. Motivation is something I always talk about when dealing with a hard game like this. The best thing is probably the title.

[Maple's Maid Service]

Wow, this was a lot of fun. I shouldn't have liked this so much. I mean, it seemed to have a lot of flaws. The characters seemed flat, as in flat on the screen. It was just a very happy upbeat game. I love how sincere it was.

It was fun to see her just prance around. The set up was so cute! I haven't played the game the whole way through. I didn't notice that cobweb in the corner. What a nice little game.

[good: baseball]

Hey, I hit one out of the park and it didn't count! Wait, that doesn't qualify. I actually had to go over the trash cans. I didn't care for that. It did get kind of redundant. The game is still passable.

I mean that in every sense of the word. The title's kind of cute. Damn, every game has medals nowadays! The graphics are good. I guess it's realistic.
