Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[MLP Online sprite Demo]

Not bad at all!

I'm generally not one for demos, but I found this to be fairly well done! I think the best thing about it is probably how it lets you have a lot of fun with all the free space. Then again, it isn't well developed. I normally advise against submitting tests, but this wasn't that bad. I can not wait to see the full version of this and your other works. MLP is so popular on the Internet it deserves to have some great games.

I also really love the music in this. It seems pretty much perfect for what an MLPFIM game would be like. You get to see a good degree of how to get around and there's even a familiar face with Applejack here. I do not like adventures games that much, but I suspect this will become fairly popular. It already has high votes!

[Q - compressing the heart]

Another point and click game?

What I found weird about this was how it was hard to tell how to go on. Yes, there will always be the walkthrough, but you still should at least be able to somewhat get away from that to enjoy the game. Well, I will give you credit for having truly great atmosphere. It was hard to tell if the character being attacked by the monster in the beginning was supposed to happen or not. Whatever the reason, it was mostly well done.

The music is nice and sounds very music boxy. The colors are very nicely done and give a great dark tone to the overall work. I especially like how you're able to create shades showing the different points of view the objects have. It's detail like that that makes you satisfied. If only I could get to the first step of how to do this on my own.

[Submachine 02: Lighthouse]

This is one of the weirder ones

I didn't like this as much as your first one, because it did come off as being hard to understand. I thought it was actually going to be a game within a game or something. I apparently had to get more stuff to play that game. It's hard to tell what's going on here, but you still know how to create good atmosphere. It's great to know this series has become so popular. It seems like there aren't enough game series under "Series".

The animation was pretty slick, although some of it seemed a bit off. You definitley know how to make a spooky mood. I assume that is the kind of mood you had in mind. As usual, I'm going to need the walkthrough to get through this. I remember back in the days where I looked at strategy guides which these games technically don't have.

[Deadly Venom 3]

It's funny to die

Well, I really have no idea how to really go with this. I could have sworn that guard wasn't looking at me at first, but then I died and it was actually humorous how that happened. What I found to also be weird was how I didn't know what to do after killing him. The game told me the instructions pretty clearly, but I still didn't really know where to go. At least this this was pretty well drawn. I especially liked seeing the woman's butt so much.

Of course, I can always use the walkthrough. What I also liked was the good music and sound effects. The animation does seem a little scratchy at times and things don't always fill out well. It's still a game I would recommend to fans of adventure games. The trouble is that I am really not a fan of those things to begin with.

[Rock 'N' Load]

This is sweet!

This is probably the best game I have played here all year! The truly awesome thing about it was when you got the highest upgrade. You could basically just keep on pressing the same button and the game would basically play itself. I love the wide variety of enemies and locations. I had no idea this game was going to be so big. There are like eight levels in World 2, I don't even think the Mario games have that many levels in a world!

The music was extremely stylistic and set a great tone as well. I think my favorite thing would be how awesome it is to see the enemies explode and stuff. I don't even know how I finally failed in the end. This is a truly great piece of work and deserves to be highlighted. Everything was just so fantastically designed, each with something different. I love you man, for making something so great.

[Windows 8: The Spoof]

Where's the joke?

I was thinking there was a joke about SOPA in here, but I didn't understand it. I have seen parodies of Windows before and this is not one of the better ones. What really killed this was how the graphics and animation were not good. In fact, there didn't seem to be any moving parts at all. Everything there just said that it didn't work. I'm guessing it was supposed to be ironic or something. You could have just done better with the texts.

I also wish there was some sound or music as I didn't find any. I guess you don't need it for a Windows spoof, but it would have helped. It would have been nice if there had been a lot better colors too. There are just so many better games out there it's hard to like that much. I do wish I knew how to get the medals.

Hi, thanks for the review! But, I actually tried to get a NG Radio App, but I couldn't find one. :( But since you want to know how to get the achievements...

I am PMing you right this instant!

[Jungle Treasures 2 : ToG]

Has its good and bad points

I actually was impressed by the graphics in this game. I think the coolest thing was how well everything was designed. The spiders were especially cool. What I had problems with was how bad the controls were for me. I wish they could be customizable because I just can not get used to these at all. Of course, I didn't play that long, but it's not a game I intend to play that long anyway. There could have also been some music in this.

I really liked the designs of the stars and the main character. Another complaint was that it seemed to take a long time to load. It was fairly hard to get up to some of those areas, but it was nice when you realized you just had to hang onto the moss or whatever that was. This was an alright game, maybe other people will have fun with it.

[NTCreature2]

I like to chomp

This was a good game because the graphics were really good. It reminded me of the ghost game that was made by The-Super-Flash-Bros. It's interesting to have a game where you can eat so many things. My only problem is probably that it's a bit too fast paced and there are too many enemies. At least it's fun to have that map to show you where they all are. If you forget to make one defense tower, it will cost you.

It takes a lot to get rid of all those enemies. You do seem to have a nice background. I was upset that I wouldn't be able to get any medals except for in-game achievements. I was so happy to find out the achievements that showed on screen were medals in themselves! It seems like there were so many it would be easy to get some.

[Robo Slug]

Nice fast paced game

I think the strongest point about this is how well the designs are. You get a great sense of being in an actual video game. The music was also really good and really helped to make it even cooler, which I'm glad. It does fail on some levels because the controls are so hard to get used to. It's simply difficult to keep up with the neverending swarms of enemies who keep on blasting you time after time. The explosions are all cool.

The most sound effect is probably when the gun fires. I like how it shows you the points you get when you damage something like a helicopter. It's hard to tell what you can shoot and what you can't. The all around graphics are simply quite nicely well done. I never played these kinds of games as a kid, but they're sure great.

Cactus?

I was about to thank you for having you for having the highest medal be the easiest to get. Then I realized you have two 100 point medals. Let me say I like this new way of having medals show up in the games here. What was the coolest thing about this was how well you drew everything. It isn't that well detailed, but it isn't bad. It's funny to have the logo of the cactus Digimon (don't know his name) on one of the medals.

This game is a lot harder than you would think. It's mostly because each specific cactus piece can hurt you and one hit ends the level. I guess it would be too easy to have health or anything like that. The music is also very tender sounding. It's not well detailed, but it's a fairly nice game to play if you have some free time.
