Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hop Bob]

Now, here's the thing. I really don't have that much to complain about, because it pretty much is a nicely put together game. What I didn't like was how it just seemed to get too redundant. It took too long to get any medals at all. I know that's kind of a shallow thing to say, but it's how I felt. The sound effects were pretty good, though. It's one of those things where it gets tiring as it goes on.

I got used to most of the sound effects. I didn't know that you lost the level when the timer ran out. I thought that was just for extra points. You probably shouldn't have made every monster look the same. It's still a harmless game.

[Oppa Gangnam Run]

I found this to be a decent game. It's not one of my favorites, probably because it doesn't have that much going on. It's still good for what it is. It's great to have all these different locations and building. I think this may be the first time I saw the name of that song. I heard it so many times, but I didn't understand it.

It looks like the guy is being chased by the Slenderman or possibly Anonymous? I never even realized until now how much they look alike. The music was great, but it could have used the whole lyrics. I misread the first medal as you having to go to 1000 meters. The graphics are actually quite impressive.

[Puzzle Blast]

This is weird, because this game just came off as really hard. I guess maybe I just haven't played "Tetris" in awhile. I still have to give you credit for being pretty faithful to the original game. I didn't like it how you couldn't change how the pieces rotated. Okay, you probably could, but I certainly have yet to find out how to do that. There could have been some more music.

It's a bit confusing with the controls. Of course, when you get used to it, the controls are the least of your problem. I can't call this bland, because it's supposed to be like Tetris. Then again, the Tetris blocks are usually covered. I just did not find this entertaining enough to recommend.

[Submachine 08: the Plan]

Wow, it had been so long since you made one of these, I thought they were done. This is probably the longest running numbered game series I've seen. The atmosphere and the visauls were just perfect! I was afraid I wouldn't have much to work with, but I did better than I thought I would. Once again, here's how far I got. Go to the right and click on the bar on the bottom to get a broken beam.

You can use the beam to get the keys on the left side of the area. Click on the key once it's up to use it. Use the key to unlock the lock in the middle of the game. Make the bar go far out and then you can push the button to make the platform go down. I guess I wasn't doing as well as I thought.

[Prisme Evolution]

I admit that this actually is a pretty cool idea in theory. What I don't understand is why it didn't have any sound. While the graphics were not that detailed, they really didn't need to. It's nice to see a simple game that has complicated gameplay. I was only able to get past the first level. The lettering could probably be better too.

It's still an enjoyable game and should appeal to fans of yours. There was a nice variety of objects to work through. It made you wonder why all this stuff was around here. Eh, I'm just being nitpicky. While there wasn't much to think about in terms of detail, there was a lot to think about in terms of gameplay.

[Infectonator 2]

Wow, this is one of the most addicting games I've played in a long time! It was weird, because at first, I didn't even know how to play it. Once I learned how to, it certainly got a lot more fun! I just loved sending wave after wave of monsters after these citizens! It's so huge with how big everything is, then again, it is about the entire world. I think this was better than the original.

There are just so many good things about this. The music was fantastic. The characters and designs were all great. I even loved all the little achievements you could get! If only this had medals. As a huge fan of the zombie genre, this is a treat for everyone!

[Clock Button Masher]

I honestly don't know if I have ever worked so hard to get medals before. It was just the same thing over and over, but you could just never beat it! I even had no idea how I lasted as long as I did. I managed to get seven of the eight non secret medals on my first try. I guess I am just known for being a really good typist. It was just such an intense experience for me.

I doubt I will ever play this game again, because I would just go insane. At least it's kind of unique for itself. If you are good with button pressing as I am, you will love this. This felt like a real workout for my whole body! My finger is still tired!

B1KMusic responds:

Thanks for the feedback :)

I'm glad you liked it

[Second Wind]

Okay, that was really strange. I thought it would be more like a standard RPG, but it was anything but. I didn't even really understand where I was supposed to be going where this. It didn't show any land, just the enemies randomly appearing. Then again, I guess most RPGs are like that anyway. I appreciate you at least trying to put in original gameplay. If only I could understand it.

As always, thank you for so much for some easy medals. Seeing as how I'm so prolific, I usually don't get leave a game until getting at least one medal. I guess the graphics could be improved on. The sound was actually pretty decent. I was never able to get any gold at all.

squidly responds:

...

No gold at all?

[Shinobi Quest]

This is funny, because at first, I didn't know this WAS a game. I just immediately died and I didn't even know who I was. That being said, once I got the hang of this, it was a lot more enjoyable. I think its biggest strength is how good the animation is. You are really good at drawing brains. I also like how you get so many oppurtunities in this.

If you fail once, you can just try again. It may not have that much action, but it's all you need in a point and click adventure game. Incidentally, I'm not really a fan of those games. It's still very cool to go through the game like that. I didn't even know you could pick up more weapons.

mexipino responds:

Hahaha, yeah, I purposely just threw the player into the game... I figure, most casual players skip navigating through menus and automatically hit "Play," so, that's my reasoning regarding that. lol.

Thanks a lot man. Yeah, I've been animating for a GOOD while now lol.

Thanks for playing man!

[Submazeness]

I wasn't that interested in this game at first, but it actually turned out to be pretty cool! I think the best thing about it is how you can casually play the game. Two minutes are more than you think in a game like this. While there wasn't that much in terms of graphics, it was still nice to look at. I mostly just ignored those question marks after awhile. I didn't even care about the upgrades.

I appreciate you making something new and unique for this website. It kind of reminded me of the old Battleship games. Speaking of which, I have yet to see that movie. I had no idea you had to earn so many stars to advance. I guess I'm not as good at this as I thought.

eidern responds:

Thanks,
For the upgrades, I should strongly suggest to upgrade the Light module, it gets the light area around your sub bigger.

And for the stars, I guess I've make it a little to hard for casual players ;p

Thanks for the comments anyway :)
