Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Don't Catch the Herp!]

Fairly funny

I thought this was a good game. While it wasn't one of the best I've ever seen, it was still fairly enjoyable. I think its weakest point might have been that I really couldn't understand what was even going on. Everything was so fast paced you had to move quickly. It's still a decent stick game and I especially like how you have such different graphics, like one part is sprite and the other is more stick stuff.

It's one of the few games I've played where are not able to skip the opening scene. It's just as well, because it's fairly entertaining. I hope you do more cool stuff like this. I was confused as to how to get past the drunken guy at first, but then realized you couldn't jump over him and just had to wait for him to stop. I like how the girl is this alien thing.

[Murloc RPG]

Fantastic!

While I'm generally not a fan of these kinds of games, I simply had to love this. This is one of the most authentic looking fan made tributes to "World Of Warcraft" I have ever seen! It seems to be just like something you would see in a professional MMORPG. You deserve your millions of views because this piece has great relevance to this website. The music is also pretty stylistic. Now, onto the gameplay.

While I can't really get into games like this that much, you certainly arose my interest. It was just so cool to see all of these guys wandering around in this unique world. It's the kind of game where you learn it as you go along. I love how there's a lot of features, but it isn't that confusing. It's a good start for someone not good at these kinds of games, like me.

[Submachine 01: the Basement]

Pretty nicely done

It's interesting to see where this lengthy series got its start. You normally don't think of games as having episodes, but this one certainly seemed like it did. I think the strongest point was how you didn't do anything to be that elaborate, but at the same time didn't dumb it down. Middle ground is always good. What was really cool was how you were able to go past everything so quickly. I guess I'll just mention to you guys how far I got.

Look around for the piece of white paper and collect it. I have now gotten so far I've forgotten most of what I did. It's unbelievable how fast you can move around in this game. While I'm generally not a fan of point 'n click adventures, this was still very fun to play. There is a wide labyrinth of areas with all these crazy rooms.

[Switch - Reaction Game]

I understand

Well, it's hard to say bad things about this, because it doesn't try to be anything more than what it is. It's really nice to see a game so simple. Granted, I probably wouldn't care for this at all if it didn't have any medals. I thought I was going to get a medal for having 100, but that's 125. What I find unbelievable is how anyone would be able to get 250 in anything other than hard. If someone did, you would probably have to invent a medal point with more than 100 points.

It's not really a collect game, I guess. This could have been better if you had added sound of some kind. Even if that might be annoying to people, you could always have a mute option. There could have also been some more colors used. I imagine more people would want to play and earn medals if you added more stuff.

Cogwirrel responds:

I've added music now, plus a mute button to keep people sane! Let me know what you think! :)

[Humaliens Battle 4]

Generally good

What I found to be cool about this was how well everything moved along. The best part was probably how I didn't know you were going into the actual gameplay. I am proud to give this the highest star rating of any review you have had. I thought it was interesting to see all those different ships. Now, on to the bad parts. The animation really wasn't that good and the characters looked pretty blocky and the series has seen better graphics.

The sounds aren't too bad, but I probably didn't like this enough to recommend it. At least everything is presented in a fairly understandable matter. What's also cool is how the backgrounds are decent. I was afraid it was just going to be a game where you moved your places around. I like how it leads up to something cooler.

[Tribal Jump]

Nice for what it is

I think the biggest fault here is that it isn't very well detailed. I know it doesn't have to be like that, but there wasn't much going on. It was a lot harder than I thought! If you so much as went an inch or so off, you lost and had to restart everything! I guess I'm just too used to playing games where you can get by on another platform with an approximation. At least the idea was fairly original, which I always find for.

I couldn't tell what that animal was at first. I thought it would have been some racist cariacture or something. You could also make the sound effects a bit better, as they seem to get redundant. I guess there's nothing really terrible about this, just nothing really noteworthy about it either. I appreciate the different style.

[Trigger Knight]

A different kind of game

Well, I don't think I've ever played an RPG that was automatic before. While I'm generally not a fan, I think I would have liked it more if it was a standard RPG. With the name, you would think you would have to trigger more things. Then again, this is still a pretty well done game, especially with the graphics. It looks like you really went out of your way to make them all so authentic. The music is also nice as it sets a harminous mood.

This is one of the first time I've seen "protips" being used in a serious way. It reminds me of when I did use to read those old gamer magazines. Whatever happened to our subscription? Well, we did move away so we probably no longer have it. Anyway, it was really cool to see how well paced everything was when the game did much of the fighting for you.

[Colorscape]

Not a bad game

I think the one thing that really weighed this game down was how there was no sound. Granted, there was some when you ran into one of the things, but that was pretty much it. I thought that it did have a pretty good premise. I have just had so many problems with avoid games it's nice to see one that isn't that hard. It just had a rather bland feeling to it. I hope you learn to make more elaborates games to submit.

I think the best part is how it moves so smoothly. I really enjoyed not knowing what colored lines were going to come up next. This game might be forgotten, but is far from the worst I've ever played. I think it's funny how you redirect to a website called "Humor". I'm glad that the word's spelling was consistent with your username.

[Crystal Story Mobile]

I guess here it is again

I was thinking that this looked familiar. I do not have a mobile phone of any kind, so this really didn't apply to me. I guess it has all the same good things and bad things about it as the other version has. People would probably not want to play this version as this is the one that doesn't have medals. It would be kind of silly for you to go through all the work of putting medals in this game again. At least the appeal is the same.

I like how that little green slime is there on the right on the title screen. What also made this cool was how well it was designed. It seems like you really created a nice little world for you to go and explore. The artwork is pretty nice and it gives off a good feeling of smoothness. It's nice to see how you've gotten success with this.

[You Shall Know The Truth]

Unique at least

I'm going to assume that audio I heard was part of the game. I was afraid this would be a game where you did nothing but type. I find it funny how you're able to examine everything so closely, even cups. The artwork was actually pretty good in this. Its main flaw is that it's a bit too easy, seeing as how you just click and get information from things. I have certainly played worse and it does have an original premise.

You could have probably made it faster to get information. Then again, I was just saying that when it was used like that, it got too easy. I think the sounds were actually nicely done, even if there were not that many in the first place. I guess people who are bigger fans of these kinds of games should like it. It's alright.
