Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Deepak Fights Robots]

Wow, this one of the most insane games I've ever played! At first, I thought it was going to end with just sixty levels, but it didn't. That was when things REALLY started to get weird. I suddenly started bouncing around random levels whenever I died. All I can say is that this is wonderfully well done with wonderful bright colors. The enemies are all very nice and unique.

It's so weird, because at first, I thought it was going to be rather mundane, but it was anything but. I have no idea how to even beat this game. The funny thing is that the one medal I was able to get was the secret medal. I guess I've played enough of these games to know how they work. The music is also fantastic. I love how you have so much freedom of movement here too.

[Spartans vs Goblins]

This was a very strange game. It was hard for me to even make an opinion about it. I guess for the most part, it wasn't something I enjoyed, probably because I didn't understand it. I tried looking through the instructions again, but they disappeared when I tried to play the game again. Anyway, I know next to nothing about chess, which is probably why I did so poorly on this.

Then again, I couldn't even really tell if I was even failing. I wasn't expecting spartans to be paired with goblins. No, I don't mean THAT kind of pairing. The graphics are at least decent. People who are a lot better at chess should like this a heck of a lot more.

[HTD: Collection 001]

It's nice to know that you finally took my advice. Granted, I don't know if it was me specifically who encouraged you to do this, but it's a wonderful layout. I especially like how there's such a wide variety of things everywhere. I was particularly surprised to see that there was a dog in this. Most of these were very well done. Even if there wasn't a lot of interactivity, I didn't care.

It was fun to see some other well known dragons like Jake Long. Apparently there's a hidden Charizard here. It's amazing how you've managed to do so much after all this time. Then again, for most people to make lengthy flash cartoons, it's probably harder. Congradulations on all of your submissions!

[Dark Run]

I liked this game a lot, probably because I managed to be so good at it. On my first tries, I outranked my high score every single time! What I didn't understand is why it wasn't working on this website. I played it on your own website, but I still wanted to review it. It was cool to see all these interesting looking monsters along the way. I don't even know if those things can kill you.

It was cool to have a game where the enemy was the darkness itself. We can always have fun with an ambiguous enemy. The music was also very suiting. It's great how there are all these things going on. I think the levels are just made up as you go.

[The Majesty of Colors]

Well, this was one heck of a strange game. With that being said, I actually really enjoyed it. At first, I thought the eyes that appeared were just part of the sea. It took me awhile to realize they were actually part of the creature himself. Speaking of creatures, it was interesting to show the perspective from the monster's side of things. I guess it would be insensitive to call it that.

It really makes you realize how well you can develop a character. I thought I had saved that kid, but apparently the shark got him. I could tell it was inspired by Lovecraft. Any sea tentacle being reminds me of Cthluthu. I'm surprised I never heard about him much in literature classes.

[Sunshine]

Well, what can I say? I really have to praise this game for being quite innovative and I love how there's so much stuff going on. My major complaint is that this thing is too dang hard! I only quit playing because I was able to get at least one medal! People who are even better at games than I am should have more fun, I suppose. I-12 is completely unbeatable for me! You know how to make people work for their medals.

The graphics in this are really well done. I especially liked how the photon looked like a cat but then looked like an actual photon when it jumped. There should have been a medal for going through the credits. Anyway, I'm just being too nitpicky. This is a really cool game.

[Days Of Blood]

What I didn't like about this was how it seemed to be basically the same thing over and over. Hey, that one dude's still stabbing me even when I've lost the game! I couldn't help but be reminded of an episode of "The Colbert Report". It featured a picture of a reverse burkka with clothes covering nothing on a woman's body except her eyes, just like the girl here. Dang, that is unpleasant. The shield attack never does me any good.

The sounds were pretty nice and seemed to sync up fairly well. Yeah, I should have known there was a medal for making it past the cut scene. I do like how you get a lot of oppurtunities. The real goal here is to attack them when they are at a certain distance. It's too easy to die.

[Slender 2D]

As a fan of the Slender Man Mythos (well, kinda) it was interesting to see this game being played out. It's not one of my favorites, but it was worth checking out. I guess it's just that the Slender Man himself is so terrifying, anything works with him. I do feel as though this could have been a lot better animated. Everything looked too cheesy. I got a bit bored with it so I just let the Slender Man kill me.

It was at least a unique game. I think this may be the first Slender Man game I've ever played. It's kind of weird to be in a world where everyone's a stick figure. The sounds is really cool too. You truly get a creepy atmosphere. I guess more of these things are going to show up around Halloween.

[EvoluTone]

This was weird, because I couldn't understand why I was losing at first. I guess it's just too hard of a game. Silly me, I thought I had gone through all of the evolution games here. Well, it's kind of sad to think about all the trillions of cells you'll have to go through to get that done. I guess this is why I'm not a scientist. It didn't seem to have any music.

Granted, I don't think music would have made it much better, but it would still be nice. At least everything is presented in a very clear cut manner. It doesn't really need more detail. I guess I'm frustrated with it because I think it should be easier. I guess people who are better at this game should enjoy it.
