Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sole Gunner]

Woah, dude, I had no idea this thing was going to be that hard! Just when I thought I had gone through the first hard level, I wasn't even done with that level entirely! You really just have to keep on firing and blowing up absolutely everything in sight here. That being said, it was still a well done game. I liked how all the enemies had such different designs. It's the first game I've played in awhile where my fingers hurt.

I like the design of the main character too. It's weird how the character looks male in the game, but female on the game preview image thing. People who are really good gamers should enjoy this. The music was also pretty stylish. I'm glad there's a medal for beating the first level.

[StabiliTEA]

This was a pretty strange game. I could have sworn that I had played a game that had the exact same medal design. Maybe that was another game you made? Anyway, it was pretty interesting to see how such a simplistic design could be so complicated. It was also weird with how you had to do certain things in order to advance to the next level. The sounds are pretty good, too.

I just didn't think it made much sense. I was afraid I was going to die after getting hit once, but it took a long time for me to lose the game. You didn't even have to lose the game to not be able to advance. Oh, and it helps I got a bunch of medals. This is a very weird game, but something I would still recommend.

VictorGrunn responds:

If by medal design you mean the icons, yes - they were pulled off what I made for Drone Assault. I figured it'd work fine here.

I'm glad you found it fun - more glad that you found it strange! It was a joy to create, sitting around trying to think of how to make the gameplay differ despite using only a real, real limited set of graphics and rules.

[Sandile's Who's That? 2]

It's quite fascinating how you managed to make another one. I guess when there are literally hundreds of pokemon out there, it's hard to ever run out. I thought the music was really good too. It gives off a good pleasant feeling. I only wish the same could be said for the actual game. It would have been nicer if you could advance to a level after not beating one.

At first, I thought Sandile was the name of a pokemon. I now realize it's your name! Oh wait, now I've done further research and discovered that it is in fact the name of a pokemon. It would just be too easy to look at all the answers. People who are truly hardcore pokemon fans will like this.

[NG Advent Calendar 2012]

Well, I simply couldn't dislike this. It has pretty much everything you would want in an advent calendar. That reminds me, I need to be getting my own advent calendar out soon, probably now. I love how you guys fantastically drew all the characters in this unique style. I guess it would be gauche for me to go ahead. It truly makes you realize how many icons this website has.

I also love the music. It's not the best thing out there, but was definitley something made for the season. It's so great how everything is getting ready for the season. Even the non-religious can appreciate the secular aspects of it. Tis the season to be jolly!

[Dead Paradise]

Well, I was quite impressed at how complicated you made this game out to be. Geez, my resolution seems to be running low on some of these. Anyway, as always, it was great to have an easy medal. It was also nice to have a game that played for you with the shooting. I didn't like it how it kept telling you were getting low on things. I can't help that unless I find something new!

It was weird how it took place ten years later. You would think a massive explosion would cause something immediate. The music was great and fit the tone well. I was kind of hoping for some zombies in this. It's still a good play.

[Effing Worms - Xmas]

Dude, I was amazed at how awesome this game is! There's just a never ending series of action and chaos going on in this! I didn't even have any idea that I could die! I didn't even care when I did because I had so much fun with it. It was just great how you could sometimes just keep on pressing the same button to advance. I love the designs and destruction of everything.

I'm so glad it's Christmas time so we can get great submissions like this! The sounds are unbelievable with how there's always something crazy going on. I don't know what a giant worm is doing in the North Pole in the first place. The music is also nice too. This may in fact be the best game I've played all month. Endless destruction can never go wrong!

[Tesla Defense]

I was quite entertained by this. It mostly works because it's so great to see these interesting graphics. It's not so much that they're detailed, but that it fits in with the theme well. It gives an overall good cartoonish feel. The only reason I stopped playing it is because something went wrong with my computer and the website froze. Don't worry, I didn't have to start my computer all over again.

I think the sounds are cool and it's nice to have a game that does some of the work for you. It could be thought of as a hybrid game like that. I can understand why this won Daily Feature. It's great how you can get an upgrade after every level. Of course, with that many upgrades, that's to be expected.

[WaxOware]

It was somewhat hard for me to understand this game. I found it weird how the graphics seemed so off. I thought at first, I only had to succeed in one out of three games. I will at least admit that this game was creative. You truly have no idea what wacky challenge is going to come up next. The animation seemed to have things moving all over the place.

I don't know much about getting wax anywhere. That's probably why I'll never do it myself. Everything was in fact represented in a pretty clear cut manner. I appreciate you trying to make something unique. It's not really the kind of game for me, though.

[Why Am I Dead]

I was pretty confused by this game. It was mostly just you going around asking random questions. I'm sorry, but I'm just not the kind of gamer who's into that sort of thing. I will say that it did have a pretty creative premise. I do have no idea what's going on. I know I've played a game like this before, but this isn't a sequel to that, at least given the title.

None of the medals showed up on screen, but I guess they didn't need to. There are definitley many things going on that leave you guessing. Shouldn't there be a question mark in the name? Eh, that's the least confusing of these games. The graphics are pretty good and remind me of "Earthbound".

[Chu Rescue]

I can't recommend this, simply because I found it so hard on the fifth level. I even went through the walkthrough and I STILL couldn't make any sense of it! I mean, it's just so close with that ledge! Then again, I guess I'm just being too whiny. This is still a creative game and I really like how there are different ways to beat every level. It's one of those games that makes you think outside the box.

I also love the music and how soothing it is. As I have previously stated how the game can be frustrating, you can understand why I would want to hear that. Is Chu a real word? That sounds kind of racist. Anyway, this game did have some creativity in it if it was impossible to beat.
