Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mindfields 2 - The Russia]

This is a decent game and I think its main fault is probably that it's rather difficult. You could have put more in the author's comments to describe how to play it. Of course, that can be good, because it is a challenging game. The hardest part is probably how you only have a limited number of things you can do and you learn what they do when you use them. It probably didn't go popular with some people because there wasn't much blowing up.

Well, the thing you did with the four attacks at once was cool. I guess we just wish all the levels could be like that. The music wasn't bad, but it seemed a bit generic. It's fun just to watch the tank go spinning around. Granted, it would be more fun if you could figure out how to get it in the right place, but still.

[Submachine 04: the Lab]

Wow, I think this may in fact be the best in the series so far. It mostly works well because you have these great directions to help you out at first. I know they go away for a short time, but at least it's better than a lot of other games that don't give you much help. Besides, it's the fourth in the series, so we should be more familiar with its gameplay. When I think of the word "Submachine" I think more of a machine gun. It's great to see what a nice world you have created.

You really know how to create creepy atmosphere. I could totally hear how well the boards were creeping and everywhere. There wasn't anything too flashy or whatever about this, because it didnt' need to be. You just created a nice puzzle game where everything just looks very nice, or scary, I guess. It's satisfying to use that hammer.

[Cuboy: Cubeture 2]

It had been a long time since I have played something related to Cuboy, or anything else. Probably the only reason I didn't like this more is because it made little sense to me. I'm guessing I was supposed to combine my supplies with each other or something because nothing seemed to work. It still doesn't matter, because it's a well done game. I really love how nutty Cuboy is. I had no idea I was going to get voice talents from such famous people!

It's interesting how you have no idea what's going to show up next in these games. I think Padrino is a great villian if only because it's funny to have a purple cat as the villain. It's amazing how much depth you can put into something where everything is just cubes. It's starting to look more and more like Minecraft. I have to play that someday.
In fact, it seems like everyone is getting credited now that the website's design has changed.

EdibleCastle responds:

yes i agree, minecraft is starting to look more and more like Cuboy. (:

[Memohuntress]

Wow, this is the first "Five" I have given to anything after the redesign! I am so glad to be a fan of the work you guys have made, because there's so many talented people here! I think the coolest thing is how while I was listening to the part where the parents were arguing, my family actually was arguing! Yeah, let's just leave it at that in terms of my family life. I loved the artwork in this and thought everything looked so fantastic. It was amazing how many things you can hide.

I hope I don't kill myself for not finding that last rose in the first level. All of the creatures are wonderfully detailed and it gives you a true feeling of being in a unique magical world. We all at some point wish that we could go to a world like this. The wide variety of music was also fantastic because of how beautiful everything was made out to be. I like how it's not violent or anything, just a game where you explore the beautiful world you are in. It's the kind of thing that can be applied to real life.

[Sky Defender: Joe's Story]

This was a great game! I think the only thing I didn't like about it was that it was hard to understand when I died. I was looking closely up at the thing at the top that said I had 570 out of something, but I lost when I only lost half my health or whatever that was. That doesn't take away from the fact that this is a wonderfully done game. I really like how it's a defence game that you have so much control over. You really get the oppurtunity to do everything yourself.

My advice is to aim really high. That way, you will get the ones that are highest up as well as the ones that are closer down when they hit the bottom. I came confused at some spots, like I thought the mine was something that was stopping my enemies from coming, but it was actually what my enemies were taking away! I appreciate the really high paced music. The overall graphics are great too.

[Rock Rush: Classic I]

I guess I am getting used to the new portal because it does tell you the most viewed games that are under judgement. I was glad to have come by this, because it's really good. I guess it's just that it's a simple game so it's hard to mess it up. Still, maybe have made bad games of any kind. What I enjoyed the most about this was how there were just so many complex things going on. I kept trying to think of a good strategy to survive.

It's games like this that make you think. The graphics aren't that well detailed, but it's still a fairly nicely done game. It shows an interesting world where the design is simple, but still complicated. I thought those guys trapped in the dirt were supposed to help me, but they're obviously enemies. You'd think I would be more clever.

[IndestructoTank!]

This is really just pure fun. There are so many things going on for a game that isn't even that well detailed. I think it's nice to have a game where you getting hurt is literally how you progress. It's nice to have a system where you have to aim for what your next target is with the vehicle itself. What I found strange about this was how it was kind of odd to not have that much control. Of course, in this scenario there wouldn't be much in the first place.

It's just nice to also have this convienient music. It may not be the best, but it's suitable for a game where you can really go around and destroy things. The only thing I didn't like were the graphics, because they were not that well detailed. It's still a unique game that people should check out. It flows together well.

[PiPi The Jumping Bubble]

Very cute! I am surprised that this does not have a higher rating, because it is actually a very nicely done game. I guess you could probably improve on it by having more going on and not just the same bubbles over and over. That didn't stop me from having tons of fun. I especially love how cute the overall appeal of this game is. It doesn't hve to be fancy or anything, just a nice little game to enjoy. The sounds are adorable too.

I like how it just seemed to go on and on, like most of these games do. The music is also good and in fact all the sounds are rather comforting. It's perhaps not the most memorable game out there, but it's still worth playing. Even the main character has a really cute name, Pipi. It seems like a nickname my dad would give my mom.

[Wooden Design]

This is a good game of its kind, but it's still rather annoying at times. I guess it might be because it's fairly hard and you can only get a medal after a certain amount of things you have done. It's particulary good with how the graphics are. I really like how there isn't that much detail in the actual props, but they're still drawn pretty well. I think the music is also nice, because it gives off a good sense of rhythum.

The one level I am really having problems with is Level 10. It's particularly frustrating because it's the one level I have to beat in order to get a medal! I must say, that it's going to take awhile for me to get used to this new format. I guess there will be no choice for me but to eventually conform. I think it's cute how the boxes sleep when it's on pause.

[Defend Your Trump]

This is a decent game, but the gameplay could use some improvement. I thought it was kind of weird how you would have a game where you would defend Donald Trump. Isn't he usually the kind of guy whom most people don't like? Anyway, it's great to see this really good artwork. It reminds me of the stuff by DanPaladin. That also reminds me that it's been such a long time since DanPaladin has submitted something.

This also probably would have been better if you had added some sound effects to it. It just seems like everything was put together so quickly here. I wish I knew how to beat the boss(es) because I keep trying to hit them with the weapon, but nothing seems to ever come out of it. Well, it's still a game that looks very nicely put together. It's nice for a little time waster.
