Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Traal]

Well, I have to give this game credit for having some good graphics. The parts where it lost points were how hard it was. I would have liked it a lot more if the green blobs had come directly towards you instead of just scaring you away. It would have made more sense that way. I could tell that this was meant to be complicated. While it didn't have that much detail, it certainly worked well.

It just seems to pause when I avoid it. I wish I had some idea what the title meant. The sounds were fairly decent in this. You really can't move anywhere near the spikes. The colors are done fairly well too.

[Flower Rush]

I found this to be a fairly fun game. I did not think I was going to enjoy it that much seeing as how it was from someone named FlashGirlGames, but it was good. I think my favorite part is how gracefully everything is set up. The soothing music also helps a lot too. It's even cool to see how sad the bee looks when you lose. It's just an overall cute game.

The graphics weren't great, but they didn't need to be. Those are a LOT of levels. It seems like medals (hey rhymes!) are getting harder to get nowadays. There's a very nice use of colors as well. Even the name is pretty soothing.

[Extreme Spaceman]

I thought the graphics weren't bad, but this did not seem to really go anywhere. It was mostly because I was confused with how every single thing was out to get out. You had to even blast the money bags because they hurt you. I don't get it. They don't look like they're made of rock or anything. The whole setup is a little cheesy too.

You are a bit motivated to beat the game, if only because of the medals. It's pretty hard to get anything done in this. You have to really manuever everything. I did think it was creative to have different kinds of goals on each level. I failed too much.

[Folds -- Origami Game]

I admit that I wasn't that interested in a game that was about origami. I don't think I have ever tried that in real life. That being said, this turned out to be fun. I even managed to win a medal, which I personally thought I could never do. It shows how you can create a good pleasant atmosphere. There isn't much in terms of graphics, but the artwork is still done well.

I was hoping this would involve fighting dragons or something. It did not, but it certainly didn't need to. The music is so wonderfully soothing. This was a fairly unique gaming experience. It's interesting to see how many layers you can control at one time.

[Strike Force Heroes]

This is a very interesting game. It was cool to come across all these strange scenarios and characters. It reminded me of some other games that have been made here like Chaos Faction. In the first level, I was afraid that I wasn't going to be able to find the exit. You basically just have to keep on fighting if you want to beat the level. It's awesome that there is so much assistance.

Don't get me wrong, that didn't mean I didn't help out. The artwork and graphics are quite impressive too. I love how the dead enemy bodies just fly around everywhere. There's so much sweet action going on in this. It's easy to see why so many people like this.

[Dr Vile- The Greater Good]

I thought this had some decent moments, but probably not something that was that good. I guess it just struck me as weird how the whole game was layed out. Dr. Vile looks like that one guy from "Tekken". In fact, the music even seems to remind me of that game. The artwork was a bit simplistic, but it didn't need to be complicated. At least the premise was very simple.

I especially appreciate how you can hit everything with the bat. You do have to be careful about not getting cocky. A guy can approach you from the side and hit you three times very quickly. Too bad the people you beat up don't give you supplies. It's still fun.

[Demologic 2: Level Pack]

I was pretty confused as to how this game was played. Once again, the medals did not show up onscreen. It was weird, because the achievements did in fact show onscreen. Either way, there's some evidence of what I did. I thought it was too easy at first, that your goal was to just knock down the guy. You also have to have him hit the red blocks.

I liked the music in this. The graphics, on the other hand, didn't have that much in terms of design. It does still have some pretty good gameplay, especially with how you can move the demolisher. The red guy looked like a monkey or something. It was fine for a wrecking game.

Maras responds:

Thanks for your feedback!

There aren't all achievements remade into NG medals.

[JackHammer Rampage]

I recognize this character as appearing later. It was a bit confusing exactly how you were weakened. I thought it was as simple as being hurt by the trees. Apparently, you can't go too fast or you'll fall off. What's wierd about that is the game says I have to move faster. Yeah, I guess I should have looked at the instructions first.

The graphics are decent, although they do look a little dated. There could be more detail in the ground. It's just the same grass design over and over. It's still fun to kill rabbits. Pink is of course the best color to make of animals you're killing.

[AB: Spindle]

At first, I wasn't that interested in this game. It seemed like it was just a game where you chose different things to ask like a dating sim. It's so awesome it turned out to be more than that. I was really impressed by the artwork in this. I thought that it was inspired by David Firth at first. I then realized he came after this so maybe HE was influenced by this?

The music was also great and very soothing. It's so fun to beat up and/or shoot those guys over and over. I'm glad I figured out you just have to keep your finger on the button to shoot. It's fun to watch them slowly die through being shot, especially. It's just a very ambitious game.

[Battle for Darkness]

I was not very much into this at first. I just found it weird because there were so many instructions so it was hard to keep track of everything. I then realized it was easier than that. You just had to command your units, that is until they died. I managed to get the first medal at least. I thought the graphics were decent, but still a little "off".

What I mean is that they looked kind of weird. The faster speed didn't seem all that different to me. The music was quite triumphant. The details for the environments were good too. It would be silly of me to ask that the game be simpler.
