Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hex]

You weren't kidding when you said this game was challenging. Half the time, I'm not even sure exactly what I'm supposed to be touching. There are shades that match certain parts, but then they don't let me beat the level. I guess I have to give you credit for having something creative. It's too bad it isn't Christmas related. The graphics are nice and simple.

I also think the music is quite suiting. It's quite strange, but probably worth a shot for fans of puzzle games. I myself am not really one of those people. At least you can get the hang of it after awhile. I can't really suggest improvements, because it works so well with what it's supposed to be.

[Christmas Shotgun Defense]

Okay, this is one of the jmost insane things ever created. I have no idea if Josif Stalin and Karel Marx opposed gay marriage. They were known for being atheists, so I guess not? Stalin was still pretty genocidal. I just found it weird they were always talking after every level. It pretty much had to do with nothing.

With that being said, I still appreciate this for being creative. It's definitley unlike any game I've played before. It was fun to just press a single button to kill my enemies. My father and grandfather were just watching something on gay marriage and religion just now! Congrats on making something truly insane.

[Slay With Santa]

Well, that was definitley a strange game. For the most part, I enjoyed it. I just didn't understand why you weren't able to shoot the little purple flying monsters while you were flying. It seemed like a bit of a waste. I also wish there was a bigger environment to go around. With all these criticisms, I do have to admit the graphics are nicely done.

That's not a cow, that's a horse. Of course (hee hee rhymes) that was probably the point. I guess I just have to wish you a Merry Christmas! It is pretty fun with such simple gameplay. I wish I knew what the upgrades did for me. It's overall a good game.

[A Pair Of Rocket Boots]

It's say to say that I did not like this very much. I think its weakest point was probably how it kept you advancing even though you failed a level. It's weird, because usually that would be a good thing. Here, it just makes the player frustrated as he does not know when to stop. When I did use the rockets, they were always at the wrong time! I guess people who are a lot better at this should enjoy this more.

The music was alright. I actually wished there were some more obstacles downward, because that would have given me a better idea of what was coming up. It just all went too fast for me. For people who have gotten the medals for this, you are amazing. I didn't even notice the balloons!

[Scarecase 2012]

Wow, I did not care for this at all. I guess I just had to give the same rating that the rest of the people gave you. It had virtually no detail in it. I have no clue how to get the secret medal and I doubt if I ever will. It didn't help that this had literally no background. The music wasn't too good either.

It would have also been nice if you could jump. I basically could do nothing but go along the level the same way over and over. Even the cells seem to be off model. I didn't know that single black strip was a floor I could go over. You need to be a lot more creative.

[Jumper: New Year]

I was a bit afraid that my medal for getting ten stars didn't show up at first. I am so glad it managed to show up when I died. I managed to get a score of over 10,000 on my try after getting 3,000 on one before that! It was great to improve so much. At first, the game just basically played itself. I didn't notice anything was off until I died, of course.

It's a very simple game, but it's still enjoyable. It's not often I see a New Year's game around this time instead of a Christmas one. It's nice to know that we're touching all bases. The sounds in this are really fun too. I like how you can just go on forever with it.

[Assault Part-2]

I think this managed to be better than the original. That's probably because it wasn't really that much interactive and it was more of an ongoing story. I appreciate it when people can make a transition that well. The music was also nice and suiting. I like how the graphics are decent, too. You have a nice amount of explosions, so it doesn't take up the entire game.

I also like how it seems to give you a lot of chances. You basically just have to touch the green wire to advance. I couldn't help but wonder if maybe all of them did that, because it's weird how I just got lucky. It's funny to see him getting electricuted. You'd think that would result in a death.

[Assault Part-1]

At first, I was afraid this was just going to be something where you clicked to advance in the game with the dialogue boxes. I am glad it turned out to be something more. It's interesting to see how this series got started. With the awards, I'm surprised it doesn't have its own gaming section. Then again, I guess games don't really have series sections. It was also fun to see the good animation.

It seemed like you also tried to portray this manner in a realistic way. It still has great action of course. I had no idea it would get into actual gunplay so it was nice and unpredictable. Some of the designs don't hold up well, but are still nice. Some of the dialogue is pretty funny too.

[Sift Renegade 3]

I think this is one of your best games ever! There are so many of these games, it's hard to tell them apart. What I found weird was how I managed to perform these color moves and I wasn't even pressing different buttons! That is, of course, probably the coolest thing about this. It's even hard to tell who is your ally. Luckily, you can't hurt your ally.

I really am in fact getting into these characters more. The cutscenes aren't that bad. I think it's really cool how you keep that intro where you cause the intro yourself. The animation is as great as ever. It's great to just press buttons and let the game play itself.
