Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The West (game)]

For a game that's pretty old, this seems to hold up fairly well. I think the best part of it is how quickly it can go. It reminds me of the DDay game you also made. I could kind of tell that it was made by the same guy. I found this to be an improvement, probably because it was more active of a game. It was fun to shoot guys.

You would think stealing someone's shotgun would render them helpless. He just shot me with another gun he had! I guess it pays to be prepared. I love how that scene has the guy get shot in the chest and he just doesn't move at all. I didn't even know that you could get lost in the hot sun.

[Rocket Santa 2]

I was surprised at how much fun I managed to have with this. I guess a game that won Daily 2nd Place would be like that. I was impressed at how fairly good the graphics were. I also found the gameplay to be most satisfactory. It's funny to see Santa go up and then fall down so quickly. I'm better at this than I thought.

I like how there are so many things going on and so many things to upgrade. It gives off a good sense of putting effort into your game. I could do something new on every level, which is why I kept playing. The sounds are fairly good too. A rocket still wouldn't work as well as a sleigh, though.

[Chirstmas Word Search]

It was pretty nice for everything to be shown in a pretty clear cut manner. I do have the problems of how this just looks too cheap. I don't understand how the graphics come off as so bad. The intro cutscene was particularly painful. The actual gameplay isn't too bad. It was interesting how you had words that went from side to side. I found "SHED" in the first level.

Was that possibly a coincidence? I remember this music now, and it's nice music. I don't know what language everyone was speaking at first, or what that had to do with anything. Do you speak a foreign language? It needs better design and artwork.

Lenke responds:

I don't speak very well English, so I decided to make an animation in Spanish (my native language).
I'm not a good animator and my draws are not good... you know my games(you review almost all my games..xD!) I always make my games by my self... alone... <forever alone> (;_;) xD!

I just want to make an animation and I did it... xD!

the word puzzle is automatically created by a code I create:
first it put the words to find
And the empty spaces are filled with words from the A to the Z
so if you find a word like ***** or **** or *** or ***** or ***** or ******* or ***** xD!
is just coincidence, for that this game is for Teenagers (?)....

so sorry if you found an offensive word you can go to menu and replay the game if affect you or rate 0 and exit

xD!

[Icy Gifts 2]

Dude, I am so glad you are still out and making these awesome video games! I knew I recognized your logo, but weren't quite sure where you were from exactly. I absolutely love everything about this fantastic game. It's easily the best Christmas game I've played all year! I love how there's just explosion after explosion after explosion! This stuff's like nicotine!

I've been playing some really awesome games on this website lately. I even love the little voices that yell out "Yeah!" over and over. I could spend the rest of the day playing this game. I love the music, which sounds so sincere. You just have no idea what's going to show up next. Merry Christmas now and forever!

SilenGames responds:

Many thanks for review and for playing!

[Ederon: Elder Gods]

It's weird, because I was wondering why people didn't like this as much as I thought they would. It doesn't seem any harder than any of the other card games I've played. That is, it still came off as hard to me. I guess it's because card games are just too difficult for me to understand. There are so many different kinds, it's hard to keep track. I still have to praise this for having great artwork.

Honestly, the bikini clad warrior in the beginning was unbelievable! It seems just like something from "World Of Warcraft". It's great to have someone so talented here. The music was truly awesome too. People who love card games should play this.

[Alone in the Park]

I had no idea what to expect from this gamek, but it turned out to be completely awesome! It really seemed to get hard with the second boss. I thought it was difficult just when the first boss was tossing all those enemies around. The ones you couldn't destroy were actually harder to avoid. I know what game this title is referencing. Too bad I only know about the Uwe Boll movie.

I thought the sounds were quite authentic. The worst enemies were probably the giant pink mushrooms. The smaller ones were hard enough. It was great to have a game where the objective was so clear cut. There was just so much going on and while it was hard, it was great to watch. I appreciate all the creativity put into this.

[Frozen Pixel Hunt]

Well, I can't say anything bad about this, because it's one of my all time favorite art pieces. I was kind of ashamed of myself for not being able to recognize more of these guys. At least I know there's 173 of these wackos going around. The music is very nice. There's not much to say here as I already reviewed the art portal format of this. It's still great to see all these classic characters.

I honestly can't think of a single Christmas related character you left out. Heck, I doubt if I could think of a character of ANY kind you left out. It's great to see how they're not just all standing there. They're out doing things like building ice sculptures, chasing each other, etc. Happy holidays to you too!

deathink responds:

And Happy holidays to you too!

[oppan gangnam dance]

Wow, it seems like it's about time someone made a Gangnam Style game. It is the most viewed video on YouTube. For that matter, it's the most viewed thing on the entire Internet. Anyway, it's great to see all this good animation. My only complaint is that it's just too hard. I try to press the arrow keys when they show up, but it's always at the wrong time.

You did seem to make this similar to the original music video. You could even say that it's based on "Dance Dance Revolution". It's not something I'll be coming back to, but something fine for a quick try. I still love that music. There could be more of it, though.

[DDay (game)]

This game just came off as rather weird to me. I didn't know a game based on World War II could be so simple. Now, don't get me wrong, the game was itself difficult, it was just simple in terms of gameplay. At least you have recreated a truly wonderful real life story for us. The graphics are actually pretty good for its time. I especially like the detail put into the explosions.

Once you get past the first arrow, I don't think you have to move so fast. It made me so nervous, I was afraid to move slowly. It's mostly just a game of memorizing places from then on. I would have expected a shooter or even a platformer game out of this. It's still playable.

[Frog Batting]

Yeah, I can see why you guys switched to cartoons later. This didn't have much detail and doesn't seem to hold up well. I was quite surprised at how bad I was at it. It did manage to motivate me to keep on playing and it is satisfying when you finally get to hit a frog. The trick is usually to do it right before they jump. It's pretty much impossible for me to get it right every time.

There coul dhave been some more shadings and colors in this. It just came off as too bland. The sounds weren't bad and everything did seem to sync up pretty well. It does seem like you're just being mean to frogs. Then again, what have frogs ever done for me?
