Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Armor Mayhem]

Easy to die

This game really has some good graphics and thank you again for having some medals that are really easy to get. Of course, with so many of them, you were bound to get some by accident. Anyway, this was a good game because it requires real strategy. The cutscene is a bit too long, but I can always skip it. The best thing is that the graphics are good and you get a really clear look at exactly who you are trying to kill. You can even do nothing and let the other members kill the team.

It was awesome with how there were so many weapons and each of them were unique. You can have so much fun shooting you forgot about your own health bar. I suggest you go into this slowly and make sure the enemy can not damage you. The environment is great too, with being able to go around inside the ship like that. Perhaps not the most creative, but still a lot of fun to play.

[Riddles of Renaissance]

Fairly hard

It would be kind of inconsiderate of me to just go out and tell all of the answers to the ones I got. I will say that I was lucky enough to get a secret medal on my first try! At first, I thought this was going to be something where I had to type in the answers. It was a little hard to tell at first, but that hand icon did make it easy to understand. If nothing else, it was great to see all of these authentic replications of art pieces. Looking at paintings has always been a pastime of mine, especially considering that few modern people seem to make paintings.

I managed to get all of them without any hints until finding one that did not give me a hint. The music/sounds were really good and it was great how clicking the wrong thing wasn't such a big penalty. It was also great to include the names and years of each painting. I am not sure if these painters intended them to have meanings, but whatever. While it did not have much action, definitley a classy game.

Well, it didn't mean to have action.

Thanks for the detailed review, glad you liked it.

[Mystical Battle]

A decent game

The only reason I did not enjoy this more was that I was just not good at it. The best part was the graphics which were just great. All of the characters just seemed to move around so fluidly and when you do that with zombies it can be hard. Again, there is not much advice I can give out other than click everything as soon as possible. It was weird to be able to see the enemies being able to respawn. I guess that was good at giving you a heads up on the next attack.

It's a little repetitive, but it still manages to be fun. This is mostly because I am a really big fan of the zombie genre. In fact, I even started watching the show "The Walking Dead" last night (full episodes at least). The name is kind of strange, as zombies did not really come off as mystical to me. It did have more of a theme like that when you brought in cards at the beginning.

[Avoid the Ball]

Hey, not bad

This was pretty fun to play because it was extremely simple and reveled in its simplicity. The best thing was how the balls seemed to just merge with each other. That made it easier to avoid them. It was far from perfect as it did come off as being a little too simple and could have used some more detail. Putting in a blank background is almost never a good idea. The thing I found also annoying was how that music seem to just continuously loop when it was just the same beat.

You could improve by putting more detail and selecting longer loops of music to use. Of course, you can just turn it off as I now realized so it's not so bad. It is still fun as the game itself is quite fast paced for looking so simple. Most of the time I just go in the same direction but that does eventually fail me. You could also use some work with lines as the blue design does not look impressive.

[Cosmo Pilot]

Needs more pizazz

This does do a good game of what it is supposed to do in terms of a game. The main problem is that there is really not that much detail put into it. I have played far worse games, but there is just so much room for improvement here. For one thing, you really should have some music or at least some sound effects. The cosmo pilot looked Asian to me. It got pretty repetitive as you just shot asteroids over and over.

In fact, every level seems to look the same. You could really mix it up by having a different background or having some different platforms to go onto. It is almost too easy as the fuel many times seems to just fall near the rocketship. The graphics are good, but you need to show off your creative side more. Variety always works in anything.

[Age of Defense 3]

Not one of the better ones

I was really hoping this would be a game where I was going to throw rocks and stuff at people. While I prefer those kinds of games better, this was still fun to play. It is harder than you think because you might mistakenly believe there is only one of a certain kind of enemy! Not much to give on tips, seeing as how you basically just send more the moment you can. I can not understand how you even advance to the next level. Nonetheless, I am good at this game so I can not help but enjoy it.

I suggest that next time you work on a game more like what I described before. It is just strange to see the same enemies being presented in a different kind of game. Then again, tons of popular franchises have made out of the ordinary settings for games. There could have been some better music. It is still nice how everything was presented in a clear and comprehensible way.

[Between The Lines 2]

Really good!

For a game that does not focus on adventure it turned out to be lots of fun! It was just so cool to be able to hit the single button whenever you had to. The sound effects were great and this is a great example of how something can be tons of fun even though it's simple! I was really testing my timing with this. Half the time I was too nervous to push the space button until the thing had gone around at least one time. While there was not much in terms of graphics, the graphics were still good.

The highest score I have been able to obtain is "Rad". I always look for originality in games and such, and this was definitley an idea that had never been done before! Congradulations for making such a simple concept so fun. It's cool to just watch the screens as they change the faster you manage to beat the level. The music is also intense and appropriate.

[Robot Clashes]

Fairly fun to pl ay

I thought this was a pretty good game. The only gripe I really had about it was that it did kind of seem like you were just pressing the same buttons over and over. What it lacked in gameplay it definitley made up for in graphics. It is just entertaining to watch these well designed characters show up again and again. You can really create your own story by increasing or decreasing the rate at which they appear. The music was pretty good.

Mofunzone will simply never stop pumping out good games and congradulations on all of your awards. Even the loading screen is well designed with how the two face each other off. It's easy to tell that the soldier with the fancy hat is supposed to be harder to kill. It gets a little repetitive, but still fun to play. It's weird how their helmets just fly around after you kill an enemy.

[Snake Classic]

Lots of fun!

There are so many versions of Snake out there, it is hard to find one that is truly awesome. This is definitley the best Snake game I have ever played online. Now that I think about it, it is in fact much easier to use your mouse to move the snake rather then use the arrow keys. I really have no idea why this is in the Puzzle Games section. What I do understand is that this has some pretty sweet graphics. I love the wide variety of snake designs you can choose from.

If you were to make another version, it should have different orbs to change the color of the snake! That was pretty much the only thing lacking. The graphics looked so CGI but they also did not try to jump at the player as it was taken from an aerial view. Everything about this is just so cool and you could flow better when you did not have to worry about moving from block to block. You deserve your views and reviews!

GameBalance responds:

Thanks!
I do not very sure what exactly you meant about how would orbs work. Do they just have different color or does level have the orbs from the skins you can choose.
