Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Thing-Thing Arena Pro]

Well, what can I say? While there are some complaints, it was overall freaking fantastic. How is it that I got a score of over 3,000 but didn't get that achievement? Do I have to have exactly a 3,000 score? How do I switch weapons? I appreciate how this has the best designs of anything so far in the series.

It's been too long since you submitted one of these. I think the music and sound effects are all great! There are so many good customizations and it's layed out in a very organized manner. There's actually an ending to these levels instead of just playing over and over. Granted, I wouldn't have had a problem if it was just the same thing over and over. You showed true creativity.

[Naruto Bomb 4]

Well, I'm quite impressed with how high a score this managed to have. That being said, it's not one of my favorites. I have not seen the other ones, but it doesn't seem that unique. I actually did enjoy this. It's mostly because I managed to get pretty far in it. Sasuke was kind of stupid in this. I don't know if I even trapped him or if he just plays like that.

The worst thing about it is the graphics. I do think the powerups are done pretty well. I've found that the best way to win is to go to the top of the screen and just work your way down until the end. In fact, that probably applies for all games like this. The music was decent.

[Jingle Ballistics]

I was interested in seeing what kind of game this would be. I thought it could be a defense game, but it's a fighting one. Here's the thing I don't like. It just comes off as too generic for me at times. There doesn't seem to be a lot going on with the designs. I still appreciate the Christmas theme.

Something about the voice used here just made me laugh. I think it is kind of interesting the way they fight. If only I could know which Santa I am. It does have a cute overtone to it. If you're a fan of these kinds of games, you should check it out.

[Tactical Assassin]

Congradulations on winning three awards! If you had just gotten a Daily Feature, you would've gotten the big 3! You should know what I'm talking about. I think the secret to why this game is so good is how you can work so much with it. If something goes wrong, just try it again. I like games that give you a lot of chances. I mostly just got by through process of elimination.

It is kind of hard to tell these guys apart. It really does remind you of the old Xiao Xiao games. What happened to the guy who made them anyway? I love this music and how well it fits the game. There's a good sense of hard work put into this.

[King of Buttons 2]

It's always interesting to see what kind of things will be in the next buttons game. I've grown attached to these kinds of games over time. It helps that there are a lot of different ways to play. Normally, a simplistic design would hurt it, but it works just fine here. You also have a great selection of music. I like how you can change buttons.

That doesn't really affect the gameplay, but it's cool to look at. I never knew touching buttons could bring about so many results! You know how to create variants of the same thing. While you're not one of my favorite artists, you're still good. It's nice to be customizable.

[Attack Of The Robots]

I thought this did have some pretty good ideas, but there was one major thing against it. The graphics weren't that good at all. It's because you just fought the same enemies and the lines and shadings were pretty bad. It's a pity, because there really are some good ideas being presented here. The best is probably how you get to count down the number of hits it takes to kill a robot. I didn't need to take the tutorial.

It's pretty easy to understand. I just think there should be more detail, like maybe have the player go into different places instead of just the same area for the same level. It gets a little montonous. It's still presented in a nice and clear cut manner. The upgrades are good too.

[Christmas Castle Defense]

I thought I was supposed to click on those guys at first. I realize you have to lift them up. It's been awhile since I've played a defense game like that. I think there could have been more detail in the enemies. They're a bit too bland. This is still a very nice game and well worth checking out. It really is a pretty unique idea.

I would think a Christmas defense game would have you protecting the North Pole. I'm glad you did something different. You managed to get over 1000K views for your hard work! I thought the sounds were really cool. I just like how these guys scream.

[Dead Paradise 2]

This turned out to be a pretty fun game. I think the best thing about it is how there's so much going on. I just had a good sense of being able to advance with this. It was certainly a mistake to not know how the controls went at first. This is a nice vehicular combat game. I think the music suits it really well.

It adds a mysterious tone to it. The graphics are nice as well. I'm surprised at how one new car can change everything. I didn't have to deal with that massive army tank when I changed cars. It seems so long when it gets harder.

[Merry ChriSMASH!]

I remember how they changed the Armor Games logo for Christmas time. Or rather, winter time. Yeah, no need to be politically correct here. The biggest flaw in this was how the drawings were not that good. I was quite surprised to find out this game got a lot harder. I thought it was too easy at first.

While not great, it works for what it is. It's nice to have a standard quiz game like this. You even made three answers to choose from instead of the standard four. I don't know what the pig has to do with anything. The colors are done fairly well.

[Blob Bob - Lost Levels]

I found this to be good. I think the main thing that turned me off was how the graphics weren't that good. A lot of it just seemed a bit too crudely drawn. Then again, I don't really have anything to complain about that much as it's enjoyable. It kind of annoyed me how the snow monsters were unkillable. That did add some variety.

I thought the exit sign was something I would die at. It's weird how you have to jump off something to beat the level. It's also weird how this started from a burger joint. It's a very odd game, but because of that, it's quite creative. ArmorGames has done everything through the years.
