Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Asteroids Revenge III]

I really liked this because it was cool to reverse the situation. It even completely reversed it. Normally, there are numerous asteroids and only one ship, but here it's the opposite. I loved how the ships turned red when they were ready to fire again. I'm surprised at how good I am at this game, as I've managed to play it without even getting hit once! The graphics are not that well detailed, but they don't need to be. The music is pretty nice too.

I appreciate you looking for something original to make and this suited it. It is so satisfying to blow up the ships so easily. It's pretty well detailed, I had no idea you could make upgrades for a giant asteroid! I guess this truly is their revenge. Everything was also presented in a nice, organized manner.

I thought this was a very interesting game! It was really cool how I didn't have to do anything at all for Level 1 and Levels 3-4. Of course, this game gets hard fast, especially when the first levels are such a breeze. The most fun part is when you complete a level and the whole level just spins around you. It might not mean much, but it's a very cool effect. I like how everything is done in such a simplistic manner, but it's still hard.

Not much to say in terms of making the graphics better. These don't need to have better graphics. They work well in how their design is simple, but the gameplay is not. I have a hard time remembering which of the arrow keys I'm supposed to touch. I thought at first I had at least some control over the ball itself.

This really was a fairly unique game. I think the best thing about it is the design of the creatures. It was pretty cool to see them go out and mine food and gold and stuff. The funny thing is that I thought the green food there was weed. I guess I really have been on the Internet too long. I appreciated the sound effects and the music wasn't bad too. I do suggest that you try to make a game a little more sped up.

I still praise it for its good graphics and fairly simple gameplay. It is a defense game, but doesn't seem like it at first. You are so generous for giving us so much space between the two towers. The graphics kind of remind me of the stuff by gel. I guess it's the thick body frames.

[Neonider : Neon Avoider]

This was a fairly interesting game. I think its strongest point was how you had a lot of great color effects being used. It wasn't that well detailed, but it really didn't need to be. It reminded me of the "Stick Avalanche" games, which are in fact better. I'm not demeaning you, this was fairly unique in its own right. I was expecting a space shooting game where you attacked the guys that were coming after you.

The music did get a tad loud at times. It seemed like it wasn't really getting harder, it was getting more complicated. It was interesting to not know what obstacle would come up next. I suggest next time you probalby put in a bit more detail. Maybe if you play the game more, you'll enjoy it more.

[The Stick Adventure]

Well, I have to give you credit for creating an easy game. The problem was it just wasn't that enjoyable when it was so easy. I will admire it because I am bad at these kinds of games and wouldn't have been able to get past them anyway. I also love how you include a walkthrough in the author's comments. I think this is the first time I noticed an audio submission in something since this new format. I guess the stick thing has been done too many times.

I just always look for new stuff when playing stick games or watching stick flashes. I suggest you work on the graphics, because this looks fairly old. The best part in terms of visuals was at the end when you completed the game. Yeah, that level with shooting the guys was annoying, too. I don't think I could shoot anything but the riot shield and the ceiling.

[Last Robot 2]

This was a good game. I think its strongest point was probably how it had such a jumpy attitude to it. You got a really good sense that you were off in a fun world where reality didn't apply. Unfortunately, I am not very good at this game. It could probably have also been detailed a little better, but it's still worth checking out. I might come back and get all the upgrades someday.

I like how it's a game that moves so smoothingly along. You get a great sense that you're gliding through everything so well. It seems fairly easy at first, but not when you get to the bits with the clouds that disappear when you jump on them. It's fun to see how many different upgrades there are. The design's pretty good overall.

[The Love Letter]

Wow, that was a pretty wierd game for what it was worth. With all the medals, I assumed it was going to have a lot of levels. It didn't, but at least I managed to get one medal, which was "Ladies' Man". It's hard to understand, but it's worth what it is. What's so cool is that it has such a nice happy story to it. I only wish people in real life (or at least in MY life) could get together like this.

The graphics were good too. I like how you don't make it too flashy or anything, because you simply don't need to. It's a good game for its simplicity. Dang, I am starting to feel old, realizing it's been so old since I've even had a locker. At least I'll have the memories.
