Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Diepix Arena 2 (official)]

Fairly addictive

I am proud to be the first person to review this game. I think it actually has a good chance of winning Daily Feature, you know. What makes this game fun is that there is such a wide variety of enemies to shoot at and it goes on so long. It got a bit confusing at times, like with how you could not collect some of the powerups at times. It's still a great game because it has some really cool music and a great sense of adventure. The backgrounds are different in most levels encouraging you to move forward.

The best thing is probably the easy controls. With the upgrades especially, you have so much mobility to go anywhere you need to. Some of the upgrades appear to be automatic while others you have to pause the game. You can get a really clear view of everything around you and what is coming towards you. I don't think I played the original.

[Web cam fun]

I didn't vote zero

It is always interesting to see what a person can do with their webcam, but this was really lacking. What mattered the most was that there was just so little detail in this. If you wanted to show us tricks, try to make them a lot more of a game. I tried to see if I could change things with the mouse, but to no avail. The drawings themselves were not of good quality either. It seemed like some of the times there was nothing on the screen.

I believe I do have a webcam, but I am not sure if I have ever really used it. At least this works if you have an actual webcam. What you could have changed was the song that was being used for this. There might have been a mute button or something and I am sorry that the computer I am currently using does not have a webcam. It did seem some to the imagination.

[Nyan Cat FLY!]

I love Nyan Cat!

Well, what can I say? This submission is probably the best that has ever featured the one and only NyanCat. The only thing I did not like was that there was an advertisement every time you had to start the game over. It was just so adorable to play this little kitty cat and watch him fly over the Earth with that rainbow behind him. Even the happiness bars were cool. When he accidentally ate vegetables, he got this really angry red look on his face.

He should learn that vegetables are healthy. This is probably the closest I'll ever come to looking at Nyan Cat the longest time. It looks exactly like the original version and it has that great little sound to it. They have given us so many crazy cats on the Internet that I love so much! The picture of him at the end is realistic and a bit creepy.

krangGAMES responds:

Actually, while veggies are quite healthy for PEOPLE, Nyan Cat is of course a pop-tart kitty. He derives his nutrition from the sugar and wheat found in such wholesome foods as lollipops and cupcakes. So, from a Nyan-perspective, this game is a strong advocate of a healthy lifestyle! :D

Glad you liked the game :) The voice-acting is courtesy of my girlfriend (with the pitch cranked waaay up, of course), and the game-over art is by Kingaby, here's the deviantART link: http://kingaby.deviantart.com/art/Nya n-Cat-Timelapse-204841126?q=boost%3Ap opular%20nyan%20cat%20timelapse&qo=0

[Dino Blitz]

Not a bad game

What I liked about this was probably how simple it was. At the same time, that seemed to kind of take down the quality as it didn't look like it had the most effort put into it. This is still entertaining because it is fairly unique. I was afraid it was going to take multiple hits to get rid of those blocks. It only looks like that at first and trust me, they go away after awhile. The dinosaur is at least a cute little creature who looks like he's having fun.

What I also liked was how there was variety in the kinds of blocks used. Some of them were not even blocks and looked more like eggs. It was interesting to find out how they were different. I would have also liked it if it was not that difficult to get the cannon to aim correctly. You could have maybe put in some more colorful music.

[Cursed Treasure LevelPack]

Tons of fun!

I am so glad to see that you guys are back and making new submissions because this was just so much fun! The coolest towers are easily the fire ones. Call me morbid, but it's entertaining to be able to fry your enemies with fire like that. I also love the little shrieks of pain they make as they die. Wow, I need to get some counseling. What was also great was that the graphics were simply fantastic and everything moved so smoothly.

It can be hard to even know what kind of path the enemy is going to take. You have to look closely where the openings are so you get as much damage as possible. The other powerups like the fire burning were great too. It's also really kind to you as it lets you advance even if your gem is out of the container thing. I am so glad you are one of my favorite authors here.

[Crazy Over Goo]

Not that hard

I really did not find this game to be that difficult so it was a lot of fun for me to play. The only thing that was annoying was that when I was on the pink sticky stuff, it was hard to get off. Every time I tried to, it just kept reattaching itself in a new location. At least this was a lot of fun because the colors were bright and the music was nice. I also loved those little things that made you whirl around everywhere. I would think this game would just frustrate me but it didn't.

This is the kind of game where you have to have a lot of mental activity to get past it. I guess the "goo" part could prefer to any of the weird parts of it. What's also cool is that this game has a really simple design but can be very hard. Once you get past the second level, you are really prepared for it. It's the first game I played from this steak website too.

[Flanders Killer Easter Ed]

So many songs

The best thing about this was probably hearing all those cool Simpsons songs. Granted, I am actually not a Simpsons fan myself (though the movie was sweet!), they were great to hear. It actually seems as though you have improved in terms of graphics. The best example of this is when you show the level with Apu's store. It is also fun to go around and shoot the other Simpsons characters. I like how Maude turned into an angel as she is now dead.

In fact, that was actually because her voice actress demanded more money. I like the menu where Homer's eyes follow you the entire time. The graphics with him look quite good as well especially with how his face has a CGI feel to it. My biggest complaint is that I do not see the point of this being about Easter. At least I had a great Easter.

Aprime responds:

Hahaha, I can't remember why I bothered making an easter version.. this was made a good three years ago.
You can go check out version 4, which came out last month.
There are more levels and much better graphics
Go and review that, I enjoyed reading your viewing

Thanks for the review, dislike the 7 though... LOL

[Modern Tactics 4]

A bit hard

The thing about this game that was difficult was the gameplay. The tutorial seemed a bit confusing. I know that I killed all my enemies, but I think I accidentally killed one of my own guys. At least I had fun watching those guys get shot over and over. I find it humorous how a rifle would be able to miss at such close range as the person does not seem to move at all. There could have been some more detail in the background.

I liked how you put in a whole lot of songs for this game. It shows that you wanted to create a specific mood for each thing. Besides the background, the graphics are actually quite nice. It's especially cool to see the players/characters interact across the board and attack each other like that. It seems a bit hard to use the knife, though.

[Golf Putt Champion]

The #1 Top Score!

Okay, I don't know if there were even any other people who played this game recently, but I did great at it. I actually managed to get the #1 spot with a score of 21,000! What was also cool was that everything in this was so simple. All you had to do was time everything on the golf hole perfectly. If you can do that once, just repeat the process until the end of the game. It is too bad it is not that popular, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Yes, it was mostly because I was so good at it and there was little competition.

I was thinking that maybe you could press some other keys to put it in the right direction but just the mouse works fine with me. I like how smoothly the golf ball just flies across the screen. The graphics are nice and are really as good as any other golf game. I am guessing the scores are judged daily, as I doubt no one besides me has won over 5000 points. It's a good game for me at least.
