Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Angry Bees]

Woah! I have missed out on a LOT of games and stuff being submitted for the past couple of days. I think what makes this game stand out are how good the graphics are. It's really cool to see these floating marshmellow like creatures get shot and stuff. At first, the upgrades seemed like they would be easy to get, but that's just beginner's luck. I have to give this an 8 because it wasn't that enjoyable seeing as how it was so freaking hard.

I like how you've created this vast network with all these things going on. There are just so many things to upgrade. I am having horrible trouble with being able to achieve any medals today! The music is also pretty nice and sets off a good actiony ring. I'm probably going to be the #1 game reviewer here soon!

[i saw her standing there]

I have to admit, I wasn't expecting much of a show seeing as how everything looked so simplistic. I was pleasantly surprised to find out this really was cool! You'd think at least one of those medals would be easy to get on my first run. It was really interesting how there were so many things going on and you had to be so precise with everything. Zombies are for any time of the year, I guess. I actually thought this was kind of cute.

I like the notion of you having a girlfriend whom you always stick by no matter what. A cage is going to work just as well as anything else, I suppose. I guess there could have been some more detail, but it's still very nicely done. The music is pretty cute and gives a nice homey feel to the game. We'll do anything for our girlfriends.

Well, the "These Heads" medal is pretty easy to unlock. Happy you enjoyed the game!

[Snowball Ambush]

For the most part, it was just a weird game. It seems weird to make a game like this when it's the middle of Spring. Then again, maybe you come from some part of the world where it's snowy at this time of year? I was disappointed to find out that you had no real means of defense here. It was still fun, because the graphics were great. Everything was nicely detailed, even if it looked silly.

I think it would have been better if you could have richoted the snowballs onto your opponents. It just seemed weird that the scores would be so high. The #10 spot has a score of over a million while the #11 spot has 100,000. Error, perhaps? It also helps that the music is nice and it helps you along the way.

ItsTheAshtray responds:

Thanks, nice review. Yeah it is weird releasing this so late. In my defense, I finished it in early February and had some issues finding a sponsor. Turns out I had a lot of design flaws (the high score mode was almost non-existent at that point!). But Tom here was awesome enough to give me some tips and go for a sponsorship. Three cheers for Tom!

[Open Doors]

I was very impressed by this game. It really works because it manages to go so far even though there isn't a lot of detail. I was expecting it to be easier for me on the first few levels, but it was pretty much hard from the start. What was also great was how the little white box moved around. It was really funny to see how it was jagging and contorting everywhere. It doesn't have much to do with the actual gameplay, but it's fun to look at.

I thought you could just go through the doors anytime you wanted. It is of course more complicated than that. You have to really experiment with this game, because you have to try everything to try to get ahead. It's amazing how something rather small can be so complicated. Even the background's cute.

[FPA World 3]

WOW! I just completed an hour long run of this amazing game! I don't even know if this game DOES ever end! In case anyone's having trouble with the loading, you just have to wait for it awhile or come back in a couple of minutes and reupload the page. I wouldn't recommend you going to other websites, because other websites don't deserve to have it as much! I just loved the graphics, with how everything stood out so well.

There was just no idea what was to going to pop up next, a rainbow colored pirate, a spider wearing a hard hat, you had no clue! So many things were just going on and I loved the way you beat the enemies. They go off the screen in such a funny manner. It can be hard to keep up with which buttons are for using the pencil and which one is for jumping. Yeah, there's only two, but I still get messed up! The music was fantastic as well and I am so glad to be playing a game as awesome as this!

[Canary]

Wow, I thought this was a really cool submission! I guess I have just been hitting the jackpot with great games recently! What makes this truly awesome is how good the graphics are. Granted, they aren't much better than in any of your other games. That still doesn't change the fact that this is great to play. I had no idea there were going to be enemies as they only come on the second level.

The music is also nice and it gives you a good sense of being in a dark mysterious place. I guess I'm supposed to be the canary in this occasion. I don't really see how I had a heath bar or anything. Well, I guess you just have to be careful. It's great how you can damage enemies before you even reach that part of the screen.

[Faerie Alchemy]

Wow, I didn't even know how to play this game at first, but I'm sure glad I got to enjoy it more! I liked how all of the environments had a very distinct appearance to them. My only complaint is that the medals are too hard to get. Of course, this game is definitley fun enough to ignore that and have fun with! The music is very atmospheric and gives off a great sense of being in a calm, world. It can certainly soothe you as you go through this hard game.

I find myself becoming better at this game everytime I play it. I could swear that my score goes down a little when I progress in some areas. I've played games like this before, but this one really got me motivated to try harder. I'm not even sure what some of these symbols are supposed to represent anyway. I understand that you get a new element when you eliminate a pair of the older element. Or maybe not, whatever.

[Viking Quest]

Wow, I am glad I was able to get far enough to recieve a medal. I am so glad that I am good at remembering those kinds of games where you memorize which cup the marble went under. What I also found funny was that the girl was just so charming in this. I appreciate you trying to have a nice environment to interact with. You wouldn't normally think someplace with vikings would be like that. It also helps that the graphics are so good.

Everything just looks wonderfully detailed in this. I was so surprised at the sheer number of materials I was able to gather. It's even cute how she yawns if you don't do anything for awhile. The music is also good and sets up a pleasant atmosphere. It's simply a good game every stretch of the way.

[Ninja Warrior 2: GR]

Wow, what was weird was that the overall gameplay seemed so simple, but dang, was I wrong! It was extremely difficult to be able to go through everything. In case you're wondering, you have to go high up on the brown thing, so you can immediately press space again when you fall down. Then it came to this weird ball thing. And I thought the time limit was going to be the biggest problem I had! The artwork could have been better.

It would have also been nice if there had been music on the menu. There were so many songs, it seems like there should have been. The instructions were pretty clear. I guess I would recommend this to more competant gamers than me. I did not play the original and this guy looks nothing like a ninja.

[Tank 2012]

Woah, it's been awhile since I've played a game that made it front page from you guys. This is stuff that makes me realize how much I love you guys. It's great to see this big, wide open space where you can destroy everything you want. If there's anything wrong with it, it's that it is difficult to move around. Would it really take more than one shot from a tank to take a guy down? At least the tanks are all wonderfully designed.

It just seems to really create the sensation of being able to go out and destroy everything. I especially love how the sounds are so big and loud. That may seem like an annoyance, but I think it's a great way of showing where you are. It can be difficult with all those guys blasting off at you. The graphics are great too.
