Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Behemols Universe]

I didn't find this that enjoyable because it was just too hard! At first, I thought it was going to be a rhythum game, but it wasn't. I do admit that it was pretty cool for what I was able to get through. I don't think I've ever played a game where I had to dodge music notes like that. It didn't have that much detail, but it really didn't need it. I could have sworn I lived a few times when I should have died.

I guess I just got lucky those times. Of course, I wasn't lucky enough to avoid the other notes and obstacles all the time. It reminds me of when I used to play piano. Usually, I only mention that when I'm reviewing an audio submission. That made it unique, I suppose.

This game wasn't that well detailed, but I honestly didn't think it was that bad. Hey, this is from a guy who wasn't able to win a single medal on this. What I like is how it seems like most of the time you just automatically have the ball go in the hoop when it should. Basketball games should be like that. That being said, I still think this should have had a lot better graphics. At least it's not annoying.

You could have also put some music in it. The sounds that were there were actually pretty good. I guess it helps that I like shooting hoops in my spare time. It's becoming more of a habit lately. I'm glad I'm a guy who actually enjoyed this.

I'm glad you enjoyed it too. i'm kind of a casual bball player from time to time myself, so that's kind of what I was going for. Music would have been great, but I just ran out of time - this was for a contest that ends today. but thanks for the review! you're awesome.

[60 Seconds Dash]

I thought this was a decent game. What I didn't like about it was that it seemed a bit too simplistic. I was really glad that I did get a lot better at it as time went on. It doesn't have very complicated controls or anything, so that was nice. The graphics are decent. As it didn't have a lot of detail, it didn't have that much to be disappointed in.

I appreciated you coming up with a fairly unique game. I didn't even know how to play the game at first. The sound effects were pretty cool too. I'm kind of glad it was a timed game because it just seemed to go on a bit too much. It's still a decent game.

[Man Who Sold The World]

I found this to be a pretty good game. I think it's probably not that good to me because I didn't understand how to interact with other people. I was able to go to other places just easily, but when I met someone nothing happened. When I first interacted, I didn't have to press anything to go on. I tried "Enter" but it didn't work. I assume I have to talk to these people because at one point I just reach a dead end.

At least it was a fairly unique game. I liked how you played this literally colorful guy in this sort of bland world. It's nice to see how you hop and jump around so well. The music was pretty cool too. It's just overall quite a surreal game.

[41st Reality]

Another great game from Newgrounds! I think what I liked most was how you really did experiment with some different styles here. It's nice to see the different kinds of blocks and stuff that go your way. I think the ones shaped like crosses are actually the ones that go towards you. They certainly kept coming to me unlike the blocks which just blew apart. The automatic fire was great too.

The music is also really stylistic. It doesn't have that much detail, but it's actually well done for the details it has. It reminds me of something from the "Tron" movies. It's also cool how all the numbers and letters just kind of bounce around. I'm also glad you can move.

[4 Elements]

I was quite impressed by this. At first, I thought it was a game in the series of the ones where you create the elements of Earth, but it wasn't. It doesn't matter, because this turned out to be just as much fun. I especially love how you can click on various objects at the same time and have them all go down at once. It was also really cool how you could use the stuff you built to find more stuff. It's one of the better games where you look for stuff.

The graphics are nice and the sounds are cute. There really is a nice amount of detail put into everything. It does get a bit more complicated in the second part. It's still a game worth playing. I like how it has different kinds of gameplay to test you.

[Tokyo Guinea Pop]

As expected, here's another great game from Jimp. It was funny, because it really didn't look that appealing at first. It was weird how you couldn't skip the opening cutscene. Then again, I guess most video games are probably like that nowadays. I appreciate your talent and creativity in this. It truly is the first game I've played where you had to protect animals by covering them in bubble gum.

It was nonsensical, but tons of fun. I wasn't expecting the flashier parts like the portals. It's also probably the first game I've played where you played a snake that threw mice around to help animals. It's truly bizarre, but it's so well done with the graphics and controls, it really works. I didn't even know you made games like this.

Jimp responds:

Thanks a lot for the review! you can actually skip the intro sequence by clicking :)

[3D racing]

I really didn't care for this game, mostly because it was hard for me to use the controls. There just seemed to be too much going on. Then again, maybe I'm just not as good of a gamer as I thought I was. I do like the graphics. It's always nice to have 3D stuff here, even if it isn't detailed that well. The map was a nice touch. I guess I just need to try out on another track.

The music was fairly standard as well. While it wasn't well detailed, I like some of the stuff it had. I thought it was cool to have that tub of water near the side tracks. I know that seems like a silly thing to mention, but it's just a nice little thing I noticed. You could use more variety with the cars.

[3D NET BLAZER W/SOUND]

I actually think this game was pretty well designed. I guess it just doesn't seem to hold up that well. Speaking of which, I am HORRIBLE at this game. There was only one time out of ten shots fired that I managed to make. It sure got annoying with the crowd constantly booing me. I actually have played some basketball in real life, just not as a team sport.

I thought the sounds were nice and authentic. At first, I thought you had to just keep your hand on the spacebar. That never works. When I finally learned that I had to press the space bar twice in order to advance, it didn't help me much. At least it's a good looking game.
