Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Forgotten Dungeon]

I admit that this game was fairly unique. It just didn't do much for me because it was weird to understand. The graphics were pretty weird, especially with how you just had the same slashing motions with your sword. There were half a dozen enemies that attacked me at once and I could only fight one at once! The sound was at least decent. It just looked a bit too cartoonish.

I guess this did take some creativity. I am pretty bad at this game, as I couldn't save the first guy I met. I only managed to open one chest. It was weird how complicated it turned out to be. I got a chuckle when I saw the giant rats. Those should be easier to kill than the skeletons.

[Crazy Digger]

I found this to be a fairly enjoyable game. The biggest downside was probably how the graphics were not that impressive. Then again, they really didn't need to be that good as that was not the focus. This still ended up being a good game. It helped that it was pretty easy to understand everything. I'm still not quite sure how those green guys work.

I think they just go in the same direction, just not at you. The sounds were pretty fun and goofy. I like how cheerily paced everything is too. This works for being a fun and simple game. Some of the sounds do get a little annoying though.

[nano robots episode 1]

I didn't enjoy this game, because it was just far too bland. I appreciate you trying to make an educational game. It just doesn't work here because it's just a bunch of images over and over. I didn't even feel like I learned that much. Maybe if you made it more about the kinds of classes I'm studying in college right now, I would like that. I don't know why the robots are there.

It seems like something with a quiz wouldn't have things like that. I don't even know how many times I have to click back in order to go to back to where I came from. You should do this in an entirely different format. Make the text more interesting. There isn't much unique here.

[Little Jim vs Zombies]

I guess this game was harmless enough. Then again, how could any game even be harmful? I don't listen to what those people say about violent video games. Anyway, the graphics were just too weak in this. You did not have much of an oppurtunity to really go anywhere. I killed my first zombie and did not get that medal.

You would think a medal like that would be easy to get. You need to have a lot more detail and much better lines. The coloring also looks pretty sloppy. The way the zombies died was weird, they just kind of stayed in one place still looking shot. There's just no motivation to go ahead.

[Tower Tank Destruction]

I personally did not care much for this. I think it was probably because the graphics were just not that good. Everything just seemed too lumbering and bulky. I know it isn't supposed to be realistic, but I just don't like the way it looks. The colors are fairly decent though. The sounds/music is alright.

I am so glad there is an option for speeding up. This was kind of interesting to see only one phase where you could build things. It certianly made you think quicker. I was wondering why you could not speed up that process. It's time so valuable you wouldn't want to!

[Wakeboarding XS]

I think the most impressive part of this was probably how good the graphics were. They do in fact look a tad choppy, but they still hold up fairly well. What I didn't like was how it was hard to do tricks. It wasn't until I really got to analyze what the controls were that I could get anywhere. I have never done this in real life. Good thing, as I wasn't even good at this in the game.

I do apreciate it for being pretty unique. I don't know what the "XS" means. I'm not that familiar with surfer terminology. That makes me feel kind of sad, seeing as how I like the beach so much. It sounded like it was saying "1920" on the menu.

[Ray - Part 1]

It's weird, because looking back, this actually has some good animation. It's true to the original "South Park" style. I guess that artwork is simply better than I thought it would be. I think you could have gotten better with this by putting in some music. I like how there are so many options. There really are a lot of unique designs for each of the characters.

People who are fans of these games in general should like this. The sounds seem to synch up pretty well too. Some of the choices like open or closed casket are pretty funny. I'm not a fan of these kinds of games, but this was still enjoyable. I like how he casually beats up the Asian guy.

[Pumpkin Simulator 2003]

It's game like this that make you so glad you have creativity in yourself. You could basically just do anything you wanted. This reminds me of another game I played that was a lot more recent. I didn't like how the future game wasn't realistic. It was interesting to get a good experience like this. Most people know what it's like to carve pumpkins.

I myself have gone pretty good in that category. Of course, if you look at some of the images floating around on the Internet of carved pumpkins, it's not much. This is really a very accurate depiction. A pity this game became less popular as time went on. The sounds are nice too.

thanks, i appreciate it

[Fatty Genius Time Travels]

I found this game to be decent. I think one reason I didn't like it that much was how the character didn't have much mobility. I mean, yeah, he was really fat, so that was kind of the point. It was just a strange game with how you disappeared all the time. It made it seem like it was something you had to concentrate for. In reality, it was something that happened automatically.

It is pretty funny to see that fat guy disappear like that. I had no idea the crate was actually going to save me from the saws on the second level. Who knew a fat guy could be that agile? The graphics are in fact done quite well. It's probably worth a quick look.

[Chocolate Run]

I was a bit disappointed to see how this was ranked fairly low in comparison to a lot of your other games. This was still a fairly good game. I guess I was hoping that you had the ability to attack. You know, fire chocolate as a weapon or something. It's still fairly stylistic for what it is. I know I have played something like this before.

The music was fairly good and it fit the game nicely enough. I didn't see what this had to do with Valentine's Day that much. I guess chocolate is something you can associate with most holidays. It did go pretty fast even if I wasn't able to get very far. I just think it's a bit too incomprehensible to like that much.
