Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Aerobatics]

Can be entertaining

I felt this had some redeeming features to it mostly because the graphics are quite good. It is hard to take the game seriously at times because it can be quite funny just to see the ship crash. It's just so hilarious to see the plane crash into the ring and then blow up. For some reason, the controls were really hard for me. I guess I am so used to using the left and right arrow keys, I don't know how to only use the up and down keys. This was overall fun to play and it also had some good music.

I could have sworn that this was from a "Crash Bandicoot" game. Wherever it came from, it fit the fun style of the game. It was fairly unpredictable but that was not always a good thing as it just took a long time to get used to the controls. I liked how you use so much space in the game. The black smoke really contrasts with the white snow.

[NarutoCreate A Character4]

Great for a beta!

While the animation and artwork could be a little bit better, this was still very fun to play. The best part was being able to click the randomize button and getting tons of random stuff. It makes you really realize how many different character designs there are in the "Naruto" series. Each character is done in such a creative manner. I could say the same about personality, but that is not what this game is about. It was cool to also listen to that great music.

Another good idea was to throw in those random effects. When I click "animal" all I seem to get is Akamaru and I know there are other animals in the series. This is of course nitpicking and doesn't take the enjoyment away from a great game. I was not expecting so many things like girl designs. It is amazing how you managed to get so many things in with just a beta version!

[That Gravity Game]

Great game to play!

I just adore this game because it has so much going for it! I have no idea why a marshmellow is chosen of all things but it may have been because you wanted to see it pop like that. There was a wide variety of music and other things to admire, as well as great gameplay. I thought this was going to be a game about marshmellows taking over at first (well, I haven't reached the end). You know, you can put medals on games here, but you probably already know that. My favorite level would have to be "Auto-pilot".

There are so many things going on, but it still comes on slow enough for you to understand. Here's a tip for Stage 12. There is writing down on the blank part of the screen below the arrows that says, "Jump here". While I can not get past that level, I hope it helps other people. Thank you for the wide selection of music and for its style!

[Rebuild]

SimCity with zombies!

Okay, it was not really like SimCity in the strictest sense of the terms, but it was still close. I really liked this because it managed to be fun without having you actively kill the zombies! I guess I am such a huge fan of this genre anything with it will come off as good. It's a fairly simple game as it seems like you just click on houses. It was brilliant to allow the person to continue with the days whenever he or she wanted. It is probably the most peaceful zombie game I have ever played.

It still manages to be haunting by having that great music. Everything here is just presented in a very clear cut way and the graphics are good. It is a unique idea and it is executed in a very comprehensible way. Even as a city game, you do not have to actually build anything, as you have to simply make it better. It looks pretty good from the outside.

[Cube Droid]

Great graphics!

I was really impressed by this game with how good it looked, especially the transition scenes to the next levels! It's a little hard to look at, because it seems like it is not taken from an aerial view at first. It was still great to play and also worked well as a puzzle game. The hardest thing was the sixth level when you had to make sure the blue crates touched each other at exactly the right time. On one level, I was able to get away from the blasts but was hit by something else. On my next try, I couldn't do that.

Anyway, this had great music and its story vaguely reminded me of the film "Wall-E", one of my favorite movies. There is just so much creativity put into this! I love how every single tile seems to have its own unique design and function. You guys deserve to have this many views. I love how the worlds are presented by those scenes of the spheres being covered by tiles.

[Diamond Well]

Not too bad

While the animation was kind of lacking, it was still fun to play because it had some good stuff. It was funny how a lot of the enemies just kept eating each other. It sure made my job easier! What I did not like was that I do not think I was able to try again without reopening the page. I click what the guy is saying and this sign tells me to use my mouse which I do, but nothing happens. You also could have given the monsters some better designs.

It was still quite fun to go around with that crane and manuever. It seemed like an original idea to me, but it's something so obvious it probably has been done before. This game can get extremely difficult, especially when you have to retreat so often. I don't know if there is any difference between the red and green enemies. Hey, those are Christmas colors!

[Vectrix]

Pretty neat

I could not help but be reminded of the "Tron" movies while playing this. While there was not much in terms of racing with a car, it was still fun to play. I like it how you can fire at the red boxes that would otherwise hurt you. It was also a good idea to have a lot of different attacks, including one that nukes everything! It takes a little while to get used to, as the game can be frustrating. The good graphics make up for it.

Another good part was how you seemed to have a lot of different things going on. The designs of the obstacles were fairly unpredictable and you did not know what was next. The music was fairly nice. I suggest that you kind of make this more of a racing game because I was disappointed that you could not even see your vehicle. Then again, I guess you didn't even really have a vehicle.

[Bubble Tanks]

Better!

Like movie sequels, I think this is in fact the best in the entire series. This really works for me because you try to make it quite simple with how the tank gets bigger. It can get annoying when you have to get upgrades and when you do, the tank just becomes bulkier. This also seems to have really slick graphics as I love how smoothly the bubble tank can fire. While a simple game, there is still a lot of detail put into it. It's like your future stuff did not do as well because it tried to be more elaborate.

Everything about this is just cute. Apart from the premise of popping bubbles, you also get to hear that neat little "bing" sound whenever you pop something. This is the kind of game where you can really relax and just take your time. It's a bit repetitive, but still lots of fun. It just goes to show that the best things in life are simple.

[Sierra 7]

3D?

This was a very authentic game in that it gave me a good perception of an actual spy mission. My only problem was that the graphics did not really seem to be 3D, although it was a good imitation. I guess I am just more used to heavy shooting and this managed to be realistic. It was nice to shoot these guys so quickly. The hardest part is probably on the second level where you have to shoot these three (or four?) guys that come out of a door and fire at you. Know that they are coming so you do not take damage.

There was detail put into their deaths. For some reason, when I first tried to play this game it did not load for me but it did the second time (which is now of course). The voice was great and it gave you a good experience of being in a real situation. Granted, I doubt I would stand myself killing all those people. Some seemed to be wearing bulletproof vests as chest shots did not immediately take them out.

[Ninja Pig]

Ninja pig!

It was hard for me to hate this, because there are just so many cool things about it! The one thing that I would really like you to improve on is how fast the ninja pig is. It just seems like he is moving so slowly and can not keep up with the enemies. The graphics could use a lot of work, but what matters is that you managed to be fairly creative. The cheesy outlook of the animation kind of made it more endearing anyway. It was also easy to understand with the level selection and everything else.

The best part of animation was the background, which was decent. While it may seem like a silly premise, you actually really have to learn to keep up with this fast paced game! Constantly jumping is a must to avoid the enemies' blue balls (boy, that came out wrong). I could swear I advanced to the next level and didn't kill the right number of enemies. Hooray for pigs!
