Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Weebl and bob- soundboard]

Too few

I was wondering how you would make this when there hadn't been many episodes. I guess I am just disappointed that this wasn't bigger. It's just that I have seen a lot of soundboards, and this is one of the smallest I have found. Of course, I can't really blame you because again, there wasn't much material to go with. It's amazing how many characters they made in this short time. I can still vaguely understand their language!

Their language is really just English being said in a really wierd way. It would have also been better if you had put in some ways to stop the sound. Most soundboards have features like that. Well, I guess it wasn't anything that was a major disservice to the Weebl and Bob series. The sound is good in terms of how clear it is.

[Retiring Day]

Not terrible

The most frustrating part about this was probably how I couldn't understand how to smash the bad clams. You didn't instruct what buttons to push. I was able to at least get some smashes by clicking it and pressing the "X", "C", and "V" buttons. I feel that the graphics could have been better. Of course, this was supposed to be a fairly simplistic game, so I can't blame you for that. I enjoyed slapping the coworker anytime I could.

Hey, I lost fewer points when I got something wrong! It's a great stress reliever. I think it could be improved by making the instructions more clear and probably having better overall graphics. It still is a fairly unique game for what it's worth. Congradulations on your Daily 3rd Place and for me uncovering this one.

[Fall Damage]

Quite a unique game!

I think the thing I liked the most about this game was how cool it was to be able to see how well you were doing. The health bar really helped. Of course, it didn't help that I had little idea when I was going to get my next rank. Of course you would make all of the higher ranked medals secret! It was interesting because I had no idea what was going to show up next in this game. There were such a nice variety of blocks to jump on.

Those pogo sticks and parachutes came in handy. I didn't even know how to fully use them at first. It can certainly get hard when there are fewer ledges on the side to slide down on. It's a game that can take awhile to figure out, as it has such an odd premise. I of course have to give you credit for creativity for this was original.

[Submarine Tactics]

It seems familiar

This reminded me of "Battleship" a lot. I imagine you could have simply called it that and it would have made as much sense. What I did like was that it actually was a game that had a lot going on. Now, I've only ever played it on Easy Mode, but I imagine it gets harder. What I especially like is how you have so many oppurtunities to destroy your enemy. The sounds, especially the way the missiles sink is pretty authentic.

I also like how it doesn't try to be too flashy or anything. Then again, I might have liked it more if it was flashy. It was still nicely detailed, it just took a bit too long to get used to it. I suggest you maybe try to have more going on in the game and probably just rename it "Battleship". It reminds me of how I saw a poster for that in the theater, yes, they're making a movie out of it!

[LINIA]

Fairly unique game

It's easy to see how a person could really have fun with this. What I did find to be confusing is that I didn't quite understand the gameplay. It was probably because I was using this cutout design on the other side of the screen. Then I played the game which was me putting everything together? I didn't understand the gameplay, but it really wasn't bad. The best thing is probably how everything fell into place when it did.

I like how the cards just swirl around. There's really no point in that, except to look cool. At least you seemed to have really created some interesting designs for us to go through. Drawings of high quality are always something to be admired here. I also like how the music has this really sweet melody that gives off peace.

[Mushroom Madness 3]

Woooow

This is one of the longest sittings I've had for a game. The worst thing is that it probably wasn't even the best in the series! Then again, it's still great to play and I"m glad I went through it. I think the strongest point of this is probably the good graphics. Each of the animals that are coming for you just look so amazingly ridiculous with their big old googly eyes. It's even better when you get to shoot these things to kingdom come!

It's just great to have such a wide variety of weapons at your disposal. My favorite is probably the gattling gun. It's weird to play a game where you don't really show yourself in the game, but rather they show you simply using weapons. It's a great idea. It took me awhile before I found out that you could even upgrade your weapon!

[Lair Y Defense]

Very fun!

I think the main problem with this game is that it's a bit too difficult. It seems like you have to wait so long before the plungers refill. Wow, I never thought that I would say something like that. Anyway, this was really cool with how wonderful the graphics were done! Everything just had the utmost detail and it was great to look at. The enemies are wonderfully designed. I just love how this giant house has so many things going on with it.

The music is pretty good too. There migh thave been a glitch where I lost my ability to aim properly, but it got better. It's just fun to see those big red things just fly across the room and hit people. Everything is just so silly in this game, you really have no choice but to love it. You didn't put "Defense" under the genre label.

[Devils Leap]

How devilish!

What was cool about this was the different modes that allowed you to play the game at your own pace. The first one was easily the hardest. I don't even know why you created these different things because they don't play off each other well. By that I mean, they don't make sense, not that they aren't fun! The best thing about this is how the graphics are so simplistic. I love the grunting sound the devil makes whenever he hits something.

I swear that hitting the angel with the pillar didn't work at first, but then it did. It could have been better detailed with perhaps some nicer color effects, but still playable. The colors are rather lush. It's just that it can be a bit repetitive. There was still a good amount of creativity put into making this, so I'll give you credit for that.

[Bullet Bill 3]

Possibly the best!

This is easily the best in the entire series. It mostly works because of how fun it is to go around and smash all these guys. I had no idea that the magic wands could even hurt a bullet bill. I have tried on every game I've played to get rid of those things and they're nearly indestructible! The only reason I didn't like this more was because of how hard the boss battles were! You'd think it would be easier, but it isn't!

I have to give you credit for having such great graphics. Everything is just perfectly how it would be in the actual games. There's so much detail in everything. It's cool how you can even activate some of the stuff like changing the blocks into coins and even collecting coins in themselves! This is why I love your style.
