Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Superstar Combo]

Different, but good

This was a very different game to play but luckily I always notice a game or cartoon's uniqueness. I thought this was going to be something really flashy, but it actually was not. I think you used the sound from "Sonic The Hedgehog" to create the effects for this. As it got more difficult, you really had to time what you wanted. After awhile, you can simply go whenever those red blocks are not in front of you. It was a nice touch to throw in bonuses you could get for various reasons.

I would suggest that you work on having a background as a game without one does feel like it's really lacking something. The best thing about this is that you really managed to make something simple a lot of fun. It is hard to understand it at first. I thought maybe I was supposed to click on the stars or something. As there are 100 seconds, it was good to set up a limit because it gets frustrating as it goes on.

[Nuclear Eagle]

A nuclear eagle?

I thought this game was pretty stylistic, but it did have the problem of being difficult. It got a little repetitive just hanging onto people and having them get eaten over and over. The best part, however, was that it was simply cool to be a mighty eagle and be able to pick people up and drop them! The artwork in this is good, but it's not some of DrNeroCF's best stuff. It was fun just to hear those people scream but it annoyed me when they brought out their guns. The most fun thing was probably when I lifted up police cars.

While I usually did not get many people into the nest through the police cars, it's still fun to watch them blow up! It's a pity the newspaper at the beginning goes by so fast you can not read it. All I saw was that it started off by saying, "A big giant mutant eagle...". There could have been some more detail put into the citizens. It does work for being fun to play as the idea is quite unique.

[Tesla Death Ray]

Great defense game!

This seriously has some of the best and most creative graphics I have ever seen in a defense game! At first I thought it got a bit repetitive but it was great to see the different variety of enemies that appeared in this! I am so glad this got a higher score when I first saw it. The best part was using the electricity to zap the enemies like that. Sometimes you can just wait for your power to refill and then zap all of the enemies at one time! I liked how the enemies were spread out so it was easier to spot them.

It was just so fun to see those planes (the big ones and the small ones) blow up like that. I loved hearing the screams as these guys were incinerated. The art is absolutely fantastic and every single line is drawn with exact detail. It was great to see what new kind of enemies would show up as they all had very unique designs. As a big fan of defense games, I can say this is one of the best ever!

[Ten plagues v1.85]

Hard to understand

I had a ton of problems with this submission, because I could simply not understand any of it. On the first level, I played this guy who was supposed to avoid being hit by lightning, I think. I had no way of telling when the lightning was going to come or even where I was. It really does not help that the graphics are bad. On the second level, I find myself just jumping over water until I eventually hit it and die. I thought the third one was one that I earned, but apparently that is not true.

The best thing about this is that it is really easy to stop because it is not addictive. I suggest that you have to put in some kind of sound. It should not be difficult, all you have to do is go to the NG audio portal or another place and put any song you like. You also need to have sound effects. The graphics need to have far more detail put into them and a much wider use of colors and shadows.

Thanks for the CC, I'm gonna try to make it even easier to see whats ahead, using your advice i've added some badass music, thanks!

[Over The Border]

Too addictive

I was not even aware that BubbleBox sponsored other people. Anyway, this was a great game to play if only because it was extremely addictive and I could simply not get my hands off of it! It was really cool to have a game like this where you actually set out for a certain goal. I am not quite sure what the point is of tequila time when it doesn't make your targets any easier. Of course, it is just cool and that's all that matters here. It was funny to see this Mexican randomly gets his clothes blown off until dying.

Those police are really hard to kill if you are trying to simply shoot at them. You also have to be very wary of the upcoming targets as they go by so fast. While the animation is a little simple, it makes up for it by having very complicated gameplay. Call me silly, but I find it funny whenever that guy says, "Arribaa!". I am glad that so many people worked together to make this game.

[Man in Gap]

Works well

It is hard to give this a rating because there is simply so little that happens. I guess it would be crude for me to like or dislike this simply because it is easy or hard to get medals. That being said, I found this to be an enjoyable game because it seemed fair. There were some times where it was misleading, but you got used to it. I guess I did kind of stop trying that hard after I got the first medal. The graphics and music are done pretty well.

I like how funny the stick figure looks when he has to crouch down to avoid getting crunched. It assures the player that he has nothing to worry about granted his or her perception works fine. Another funny part was how it made that silly sound. I do have to really give you credit for creating a game so simple but it still has effort put into it. It is certainly that you can never completely finish.

[Toytown Tower Defense]

Too addictive

Probably the only reason I am giving this such a high score is because this game is so blasted addictive! I have no idea how to advance as more of these guys keep on coming and coming! It is definitley a great game because it has some of the most impressive graphics I have seen in a defense game! The designs for each of the enemies is simply fantastic and so well detailed. There are so many things to do, should I add more things or upgrade the things I already have? It can be both good and bad with how there is such a long way to go.

The best thing about that is that it gives you lots of room to put towers. The worst part is that you have to wait awhile, but of course you can always just speed up the game. Seeing as how there are a lot of toys, it's understandable to see how there could be so many designs. This is DEFINITLEY a defense game on steroids. As one who is a huge fan, this is one of the best I have ever played.

[Zoo Escape 2]

Good to see you on the front page

The people at freeworldgroup make a lot of geniunely good games. It is sometimes hard to notice the progress you guys have made seeing as how you all have so many submissions. This is a great example of how you can become popular. As for the game itself, it was good if a little too cute. I guess I have become too cynical as a song as cheerful as "Candy Zoo" seems a bit annoying to me. The best thing about this game is that it was made with real heart.

I seem to be having a bit of a problem as I keep clicking the cage and it's only after like five clicks it works. I probably read the instructions wrong. The animation was good and I can now recognize the graphics you guys work on. It is too bad those stars are usually too hard for me to get. While certainly a long game, it's fun most of the way.
