Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pothead Zombies 2]

I really had no idea this game was going to be so much fun! It probably helps that I'm just a huge fan of zombie shooters in general. What made this so great was probably how all of the zombies had unique details. In fact, I was reviewing another zombie game just yesterday that lacked that feature. Of course, this wasn't really that much better, both were great. Anyway, I couldn't help but be reminded of "VG Cats".

I guess it's just because that's the most well known humanoid boy and girl cat duo out there. I just freaking love cats so much. So combining them with zombies was of course a great idea. I thought my partner was throwing grenades or something but it was just the donkey blowing up. I love that guy.

[3 Foot Ninja II]

Congradulations on one of your most viewed games! It makes me wish we could search author's names to see the most viewed stuff someone has. My complaints with this are that it's a bit to short and the gameplay is quite difficult. The bad kind of outweighed the good here. I did like the graphics and the sounds. I think the original was probably a bit better.

It can be hard killing those enemy ninjas. You really have to learn to either block or just get a good distance from them. Even then, it can be difficult The chapters could have probably been longer. At least it's an okay story.

[24 Days in the Mall]

Probably the one thing that I really hated about this game was how you didn't have a means of defense against the zombies when they got to a certain close point to you. I then realized that you could just saw them up. I'm so glad I read all the instructions. While the zombies themselves could be better designed, this is still a fun game. It's even an original concept for a zombie game. I like how there's this big machine to attack the zombies.

It's funny how they all die in different ways from the different weapons. It's simply fun to destroy zombies as always. I like all the sounds, especially how the zombies die when you attack them. There's also a lot of nice details here and there. I appreciate you making an enjoyable game.

[1812 Overature]

I couldn't help but think this was a tribute to classic Looney Tunes cartoons. What I didn't like about this game was how I didn't understand it. I tried to hit the space bar in the spaces, but the game never really told which color was the best. It didn't tell me in the instructions which specific part I was supposed to hit. I ended up losing and didn't even know how. At least the graphics were pretty good.

There's so many song games, it's strange you would have to use on that isn't copyrighten. I didn't even know "copywriten" was a word. Of course, you might have just made it up yourself. It's just not a really noteworthy rythum game I've played. It's still a bit fun if you're good at it.

[Kamikaze Pigs]

I am so glad I managed to unearth this great game! What really struck me as so good about it was how there was just so many things going on! I had a great oppurtunity to cause as much destruction as I wanted. It reminded me of those other games where you just hit something once and everything gets destroyed. It was pretty funny to use pigs too. I had no idea this thing was going to get so massive!

All of the upgrades were great too. It's kind of weird how there are so many upgrades to something that is only used once as a weapon. You might not want to glamorize kamikazes. Of course, these are pigs, so who cares? I think my favorite part of the game is how you can roast people, or pigs in this case. It's a fantastic game everyone should play!

[Hollow.]

Congradulations on being Tom Fulp's favorite game! I really liked this, probably because it really lets you go to this strange bizarre world. The main white character reminds me of the game "Aether". I can easily see this becoming popular. It's already popular with the freaking creator of the website! I really like it how you can dive.

It's great how you die numerous times but it quickly goes back to where you started off. I don't know if I've ever seen you re-animate so quickly. The sound effects and enemies are nicely designed too. I wish I had some idea where I was going here. All I know is that I had a great time doing it!

[Cave Chaos]

This game was really cool! I'm surprised it doesn't have a higher score, but at least it made front page. I think the most awesome thing about this game was that you basically just had to keep on pressing the same button over and over. It's a wonderfully straightforward game. I do wish you had more of a means of defense against the enemies. The graphics are as great as ever. I just now realize you put the year this was made on the cartoon.

For 2009, this sure looks recent. Of course, it's not THAT long ago. The best thing about this is probably how there's a wide variety of platforms for you to just go and walk on. You rarely see that in a Newgrounds game. You guys will never stop making classic stuff!

[Human Apocalypse]

I guess the main reason I didn't like this that much was because it was so freaking hard! I still have to give you credit for having a very original idea. Perspective flips are always cool. The best part about this was probably how you had such good mobility. Dang, I didn't know us humans could multiply so fast. The graphics weren't bad, but they came off as a bit too silly.

Of course, that may have been the point. It was pretty funny to see everyone walking around when they all looked like pancakes. The music was pretty decent. Dang, does this game get hard fast! For those of you who have faster reflexes, you might wanna check this out!

Zanzlanz responds:

Haha it was my first 'shooting' game so I wasn't sure exactly how to make the difficulty.
I didn't want to make the game play too long and boring, so I made it quick and challenging. I see all of these fps games where everyone dies so quickly, haha!

Yeah the graphics weren't meant to be serious. I designed them initially to be a completely different game, based off of complete randomness. That sure changed xD But you're probably right. After the change in design should have came a change in graphics.

Thanks for your review :)

[Drone Assault]

I was pretty freaking amazed at how cool this game was! I was quite disappointed when I couldn't get a higher score every time I started a new game. This is still great even though the graphics aren't that good. You certainly know how to motivate a person to complete something. The sounds were really good too. I loved how there were all sorts of different enemies to shoot at.

It was a fairly original game overall. It sounded like balloons popping whenever you hit your target. There's a nice variety of colors being used too. Oh, I thought the medals were for every new level you got to. You have to watch these rascally aircrafts!

VictorGrunn responds:

Wow, thanks. I'm glad you liked the game. Yeah, this was the first time I ever attempted to do any art for a game - I need to get much better there.

Feedback appreciated, I'll use this to make better stuff!

[Numbered Bubbles]

That was a rather interesting game, but it didn't come off as that good to me. I guess it just got frustrating with the sheer number of 1's that kept showing up. I wasn't even able to understand most of it. At least it was apparently made with the intention of being creative. The music was good too. I thought the transition effects, what few there were, were pretty good.

Everything was nice and shiny. I liked how it had an ambitious feeling to it, even if it didn't have much detail. It probably could have used more variety, but I guess that would have just made it harder. Bigger fans of yours should probably like this. It's fairly fine for what it is.
