Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Medivoid]

This came off as a tad disappointing. I originally thought it would be a game where you fought. I guess the ArmorGames logo just comes that way to me. I appreciate you doing something original. Games like this don't need to be detailed that way. I kept thinking the title was a reference to "Metroid".

It certainly didn't seem like that game. It's nice to have such good music. I don't know what the red dot is supposed to mean. If I get it, do I get more health? It's still good for a maze game and it can come off as shocking when you lose.

[The Urban Wizard bling ed]

I thought this was a good game. What I didn't like about it was how I stayed in the same place the whole time. I appreciated how you had both a sword and a gun at the same time. You usually don't see a mixture of those things. The sound effects are quite stylistic too. I just like how you have a lot of freedom here.

It's fun to shoot at guys before they even fall down. The notion of a wizard using bling is really cool. I know the "ed" is meant to stand for edition. Someone should make a joke about guys named Ed with that. Like I said, it could have been spread out more.

[StickMan Sam - Part 3]

I thought this could have been better. I just it was just because the other games were more about learning. That's weird, I'm normally not into tutorials. I think it's just that this game was a bit harder to play. I couldn't understand why the space button made me jump instead of the W key. It still is a decent entry in the series.

The music gets a bit too montonous. I'm stuck somewhere and I know I can get out of it. Well, duh, how else could I get through the game? He still moved pretty fluidly. It's interesting to see this game progress.

[X-MEN:Trio Squad]

I thought this was just a mediocre game. I didn't really understand a lot of the appeal. I was unable to even know how to play it at first, but I realized it's more of a typing game. It seems like the quality isn't that good. It's just that I expect more from an X-men game. The fighting should have been more direct.

Maybe I've played so many games I've lost patience with some of them. I think the music was pretty good. You did put a pretty unique spin on the characters. I appreciated that. You should go into the action sooner.

[Vertigo Sunrise IV]

I didn't really care for this, because I thought it was too freaking difficult. The thing that annoyed me the most was how you had to do certain things to just move around. In the end, it just didn't seem worth it. I do appreciate the graphics. Another thing I like is how awesome the title is! That is seriously one of the best titles I've ever seen in a game!

It's admittedly interesting to see how you can advance in this. It just doesn't work out well for me. You should make a simpler version of this. At least you managed to have fun with it. I should be used to harder games by now.

[Super-Tramp]

This didn't seem like anything that interesting at first. It really is a lot better than it looks. It's mostly because you have taken such a simplistic idea and made it cool. I admit it is pretty hard to avoid all the stuff that's trying to kill you. I also love how the sounds are from the Mario games. That's used when you collect coins, not stars.

It was interesting to see how you could manuever around everything. It was pretty easy for me to figure out to avoid those. You could just go on top of them and the level would end before you could die. It's just so fast paced. I appreciate the creativity.

[Buddy In Space]

This is a pretty mediocre game. I don't like it that much because there doesn't seem to be much of an aim. All of the enemies look exactly the same. The graphics were not terrible, but nothing to be proud of either. I think you should also be allowed to hold the space bar down to blast at enemies. It does have some good use of colors.

It seems to be vaguely Mega Man-ish. I think it's mostly because there's this weird dog thing on the menu screen. I wasn't interested in playing long enough to see if he showed up. I do like the three strike upgrade. It's pretty forgettable.

[Lumination]

It seemed to be too easy at first. I now realize from reading that you apparently have to sync it in a certain way. I think the music is pretty good. It says there's an error on that and it makes sense to me. I am already in first place. Then again, this game isn't that popular.

I guess it would have been more popular to put it out around the fourth of July. Hey, it's actually around that time from when I'm writing this! You do have pretty good graphics with what is shown. This is overall a fairly colorful game, which I mean quite literally. The letters are drawn in a nice way too.

[Shotgun Orc]

I thought this game was pretty good. I think its biggest fault was that it was too hard for me. Yeah, I don't want to sound whiney, that's just how I feel about it. The artwork was good, if a little distorted. It was at least unique in that sense. You had to know how to time the shotgun blasts. There were always obstacles like the cannon balls on the ground.

I just associate orcs with LOTR. Did they originally start there? I think now they're just mythical creatures anyone can use. I thought it was funny how killing the horse didn't kill the driver. They had pretty big heads too.

[Turbo Spirit XT]

I am not really a fan of racing games here. That might be because there even that many of them that I can find. I really enjoyed this! I was afraid it was going to be too difficult because I'm rarely that good at them. It was better than I thought, but boy, did you have to avoid staying out of the road. The graphics were really quite impressive.

I'm thinking they were partly CGI. I don't know what program you used, but it worked really well. I even manage to get to a checkpoint right after it said I was out of time. Now that's a close call! The voice (presumably yours) is great too.
