Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Golden Gauntlet]

Very good!

It's too bad this did not get more recognition on this website. It was still really fun to play for me at least because it was a very clear to understand RPG. As I am not really good at regular RPGs, that is always a plus. I know that sounds pathetic, but I could still appreciate all the work and effort put into making these really good graphics. I was confused at first and thought I was supposed to attack the first guy I saw! Anyway, what really won me over was the designs and mobility of the main character.

Who would think that fighting a blob could be so fun and require strategy? The sound effects and music were all nice and authentic. The thing I did not like was not having the game pause whenever I went to look at the inventory. Keep mind that you should do that when there are no enemies around. I liked how the body movements were so vivid.

[Burrito Bison]

Burrito?

I knew I had played stuff by you before and it turned out to be that "Dale & Peakout" game. I thought for a moment that you were the same guy who made the "Ching Chong Beautiful" game. I guess the style just reminded me of it somehow. Anyway, this was fun to play because it was yet another new twist on the slingshot genre of games! I had no idea what was coming up, really. Giant gummie bears that a bull person smashes, now that's innovative!

The music was also quite epic and gave you a feeling of wanting to do on. There are powerups and such as usual, which can get annoying with how it takes to get them. What matters is that you are motivated to continue playing to see what happens next. I love how fearful the gummy bears look as they run away. It sure makes it easier to stay flying than some other games like these.

[Builders Brawl]

A lot of fun

While I have never played the "Worms" series on a video game system, this was still really fun to play. I loved how you could get to your enemies so easily. The fact that there are an infinite number of things to shoot with your bazooka is awesome. The little comments the characters made were a little annoying, but still cool. I loved how this was also a game that you could really take your time with. For something that has explosions and stuff, it was really not that fast paced.

I loved to see how the computer seemed to really take its time when it planned attacks against me. It almost reminded me of the "Team Fortress" series. It's cool how there are simply so many explosions going on and stuff. The music is pretty cool too. The graphics are slick and I like how you did not go for the sprite look.

[Brutal Racing - NA 2010]

Well made but hard

It was really cool to see a game like this with such good graphics. I am surprised you do not have a more well known sponsor like freeworldgroup or MiniClip. The thing I did not like was how it was just so freaking hard! Everything started out fine for me, but when I had to turn it just fell apart! I guess I just have to make sure that never happens as I can never recover from it! The most frustrating thing is how I make only the slightest touch of a button to change direction and then I hit the other side of the race track!

Still, this was admirable because it had some really good graphics. I loved how I could just drive over the cones so easily. I guess someone who is a lot more used to racing games could play this. The backgrounds (especially on the title screen) were really cool as well. The music was quite appropriate and had most of what makes a racing game of high quality.

[Pina Pony]

Lots of fun!

It was hard for me to tell if the screen flipped around because I touched the spikes or not. I guess it was not, because when I did touch them, I turned into candy. I just really enjoyed how adorable this game turned out to be. It seems like something for a "My Little Pony" website that turned out to be for everyone. I love how adorable the graphics are and how cute the pinata talks. You have to watch for how many jumps you can make as there are certainly limits.

It was so fun because it was just so full of joy and energy. I loved hearing the pinata talk and say, "Yay!" all the time. It's just cute to watch it jump really high and collect all the sugary treats and teddy bears and stuff. While the premise is simple, it works because no one can deny it is so dang cute! Congradulations for making an adorable game tons of fun to play!

[The Underrated Art Collab]

Really good

I am glad that this went from a 3.15 to a 3.22 simply when I watched it again! It's too bad these medals do not have points. As far as I can tell, as they are not listed, you get them simply by viewing all of the profiles. I was unexpectedly impressed at how good these drawings were. It just goes to show that you should never judge something as being cheap if it has no medals. It is easily the best thing you (BanglaBoy96) ever worked on.

The best artwork was from Boredouttamymind and Sunshinda Fox. There was a lot of variety in this pictures and it was so great to see different characters being shown. This is indeed very underrated stuff. I do not review things on the art portal, so I am always eager to look at collabs like this. I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day too!

BanglaBoy96 responds:

Great to hear it Ericho! XD
Thanks

[Windows Rubbish SP1 BETA]

Could be better

It was kind of weird to watch this because I kept thinking I could do it better on my own computer. I guess that is only because my real computer went through a bad virus. Hey, maybe you could find some way to more accurately show off an actual virus in this! I just feel as though this has been done many times before and better. I still thought it was not the worst because it was entertaining in how cheesy it was. Given that the computer here was supposed to have viruses, I guess that was the point.

All the icons seem to be pretty authentic. I think that I would know as I just recently interacted with them right now as I use my actual computer. I liked how you could use a new username and password. I simply used the same password as my username here. Wait, does that mean that someone else could use that and hack into my account on this game?!

No it doesn't. Man everytime you play this you can enter a new pass.

[Arkandian Crusade]

What a crusade!

When I was facing off against the first enemy, I was not able to get barely any damage at all! I hope it was part of the game to lose to him, because there would be no way for me to advance otherwise. When the game started, that was when the real fun began. It's hard to tell if using the harder attacks are even worth it. They are so rare (for me) it seems like just constantly doing the light attacks would work better. The graphics were nice and quite innovative.

The best thing is easily the screen where you get to wander around. I like how you do not get to see the rest of the screen unless you advance on to that part. Now, this is a game that takes awhile to beat, so you're going to want to get the medals if you do. The character I chose kind of looked like Mr. Spock. My icon on the screen appeared to be my character's face on a coin!

[Alice in Spaceland 2]

Better than I expected

I recognized that girl as being from the "Touhou" video games. While I personally know little about the series and have actually never played it, I recognize it for being popular on the Internet. It was really cute how every blast was actually a minature version of herself! The sprite work with her was really well done, especially with how she contrasted with the more simplistic design of the enemies. I just loved hearing the little "boop boop boop" sounds when she fired. Be sure to make the screen large enough to see the enemies.

I am going to assume her name is Alice and it sure reminded me of Alice In Wonderland for its surrealism. I guess some of the graphics could be better, but the main point is to have fun with this game. It's completely ridiculous and quite cute. I especially loved Alice's mobility and being able to move around. It took me awhile to realize she could do that.
