Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Game Corp]

Well, we had spent so much time playing games, so it only figures that there would be a game actually about making video games. Seriously, I think this may be the first of its kind. I don't recall even a regular video game being like this. I'm surprised you called that tutorial short. It makes sense, as there were certainly a ton of things that you had to take care of. The graphics were fairly decent.

I didn't do too well on my first project. I managed to make only negative three thousand dollars. It would have been better if I had simply done nothing. It was funny to see how fast the workers could move. It gave me a quick laugh.

[Colosseum BlackJack]

I pretty much have no idea at all how to play card games like this. I was just confused by how fast paced it was. Then again, that was probably because I was clicking everything too fast. I didn't like it how I constantly had to click stuff that gave out another website. Doesn't my software protect me from that? Anyway, it's interesting to see how far you could go.

I managed to win at least one game and God knows how I did it. The graphics weren't that good. The sound effects (what little there were) weren't bad, though. If you're a big fan of these kinds of games, you might want to check this out. For those who are not familiar with them, like me, maybe not.

[Zombie Squirrel Attack]

I admit that I was a tad turned off by how the graphics didn't look that good at first. What did manage to win me over was when the squirrel came with his gun. It was so satisfying to take it from his hand, or paw or whatever. Squirrels are just so funny. I'm reminded of another game where you shot Foamy. I guess shooting squirrels is just fun.

The sound effects were decent. I am glad you did not stay in the same location. You could have probably had more interactivity with going places in the level. The squirrels all pretty much looked the same. I liked how you could shoot every part of them.

[Snakeman Steve]

I could pretty much tell that this was meant to be a semi remake of the Snake series. I must not have played it in awhile because I thought I was supposed to be the mouse at first. It even took me awhile to catch on how the snake body was getting longer. Enough of that, how good is the actual game? Well the original one didn't have a lot of detail and neither did this.

I still like them. There probably could have been some music tossed in there, but I did like the sound effects. It's interesting how a game like this just goes on forever. I was thinking maybe you could have done something to get more points, because it's always the same. Maybe have powerups for him to eat?

[Deus Shift]

Okay, this game turned out to be a lot more complicated than I thought it would be. I made the mistake of not checking out the tutorial first. Even when I got through the tutorial, I had pretty much pages of stuff to read. I had to skip some of it. I am amazed at how there are so many things going on. I wasn't even able to beat the tutorial level.

I have to give you credit for creating a complicated game. The music was also fairly nicely done. I just appreciated the sheer complexity, even if I couldn't play it. If you are really good with these kinds of games, then check it out. I admire anyone who can get ahead here.

[The Rose is Blooming]

I like zombie stuff most of the time, but I didn't really care that much for this. I have to admit you seemed to work with an original concept pretty well. It's the first zombie game where I pushed an on screen button to kill a zombie. I am amazed that anyone would be able to last 300 days in this game. Then again, that might just be because I'm not interested in it much. The graphics are fairly nice.

The sounds aren't bad either. I guess I'm just not used to an RPG like setting for a zombie game. It did manage to have some creativity. It just moves too slow for me. People who are more into these kinds of games should like it more.

[Top Down Super Crate Box]

I thought this game wasn't that bad. The main reason I didn't like it that much is because it was too difficult. I guess I'm just so used to earning medals. It just struck me as so weird as the enemies were so relentless in this. You would think with so many medals, at least one would be easy. Eh, I'm being too whiny.

I appreciate how it is a pretty original game. I never knew colorful blobs could be so dangerous! You certainly had a nice amount of space to move. I thought the sounds were pretty nice too. I didn't even notice the crates were reappearing at first.

[Geek Fighter]

This turned out to be pretty enjoyable even by the standards of it being an older game. I liked how you had a lot of mobility in this. What I didn't like is that you basically only had a few moves to work with. I like the notion of geeks getting back at bullies. I just thought it could have had more going on it. I just realize I use that a lot in my reviews.

I can see why this became so popular. The sounds are pretty nice. You do have to keep up pretty well in this game, because it's fast paced. There probably could have been some more music. There's a good sense of dimension.

[Invaders 2002]

I have to give this game credit because it really did seem to imitate the style of the original "Space Invaders" game. I guess that was also kind of why I didn't like it that much. I agree, there could have been some shields. It's still nice to see some really good use of coloring effects. The graphics were quite impressive and unique.

If only you were invulnerable for a little bit after reforming. I guess most shooting games don't have that anyway. The sound effects were really good too and synched up quite well. There should be an Invader 2013. With modern flash, you could take this further.

[Field Goal Challenge]

I didn't like this game because I didn't understand it. I basically just clicked with the mouse over and over. I must just be really bad at this, because I don't even have a guy come and kick the ball half the time. The designs and the colors were actually really good. Even the menu was done really nice. I just wish I could say the same for the gameplay.

The music and sound effects were okay. I guess I'm just not much of a fan of sports games to begin with. I still appreciate you trying to reach out to the people who are fans of those kinds of games. It should appeal to them. You just need to have more going on.
