Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

Perfect way to beat it

I am only giving this a high rating because I know the perfect way to win at this game. Geez, if this had tons of medals, I would get every one of them! Okay, the secret is that there are only four arrow buttons to press. Just use your multiple fingers to teach all of them at the same time. I have checked and you do not get penalized for pressing the wrong arrow button! Anyway, the artwork in this was great too and I especially like how you give a decent description of all the different characters.

Quite fun to play

You can always go back to old Clock Days and take a look back at some truly amazing stuff that you guys have given us. I was amazed at the creativity and graphics of this. The only problem is that it was a bit annoying with how you had to change your weapon to hit a certain target. I am just so used to doing nothing but blowing stuff up one after another. I really like the clock designs that were used in the cut scenes. The graphics overall are done really well, especially StrawberryClock in his ship.

[This is the Only Level II]

It's back!

I was just finishing up reviewing everything by you, jmtb02 so how funny it would be for you to unleash a new game! This had all the insanity and incomprehensibility of the previous installment. I was a bit confused as it why it said, "Level 2", but then I realized that it was obviously the second level. It is good how you threw in hints on how to beat the level in the title itself. It had unexpected twist and turns, as I expected (?). This should satisfy any fan of these games and of your work.

[Scribble States!]

Back to school!

How funny it was that I happened to play this just before I got to my actual next semester in college. This was pretty good and it was great that I knew all these states so well. I actually used to have a place mat that had all of the states and their capitals on them. I liked the music and it was great to just score so highly on this test. I am actually a bit disappointed that I seem to be making lower grades in college now. I was a little confused as to how exactly you had to fill in the thing for the written part.

[Thing-Thing 4]

The game just never ends!

I was quite impressed by this game due to the fact that it was addictive because it seemed like you could never stop playing it! I do wish you could give me a health bar to show how much I have left. Yeah, it would have been easier to just be able to go through every door. The weird thing is that it actually seemed to get boring after awhile. I mean the action was great, but there was just so much shooting and stuff going on, I really got used to it. You had some nice cutscenes as well and you can never go wrong with gameplay like this.

[Clamflight]

Well, that was weird

I do not know why, but why this game was one of the slowest things I have ever played, it actually kept me entertained for a long time. I am not sure how it did it, but I just really wanted to keep on playing. Maybe it was just because the numbers were just going on so high. I had no idea whenever a boss or anything would show up as I got over 8,000 in score. I guess you just have to wait a really long time. It was weird how I kept having to pace myself seeing as how the controls did not work that well for me.

[Squeezed!]

Avoid yourself!

I just think the premise of this game is so silly. How can you be sure that you avoid the stars when you are none other than a star yourself? Is it something along the lines of "opposites attract" where things that are the same are to be avoided? I liked the two music choices used for this game. Another cool thing was how the stars got bigger and how they started inching towards you the closer you got to them. Yeah, that made the game hard but it was still a really cool thing to include in the gameplay.

[Parachute Retro (Game)]

Hard as ever

I think the one thing that makes these games so effective is just how well they take you by surprise. Everything just seems to be going so casual at first you do not even notice the changes. Then along comes obstacle after obstacle and after 46 saves it simply became impossible for me. I can tell this was an early version as the graphics were not that good. This game did not really depend that much on graphics in the first place. The loading screen is also fairly nice with the white plane silhouette just flying around.

[Ball (Original Demo)]

Take your first baby step

Yep, I can certainly recognize just how far you have gotten with your ball revamped series. I think this is probably the least enjoyable of the series, as there is no sound and it is hard. It was just weird to see those little flashing things show up every now and then. I am glad that you used this as a simple demo. The full versions are much better, not just for being easier, but for having very improved graphics. It is nice to know that this was the game series that got you started making popular games.

[Braden's Kitchen (Game)]

Definitley an early work

It is weird to look back and regard these early games as amateurish, but then again, it is also interesting to see how far you have come. I especially like how the gameplay is simple. The graphics are probably the weakest part as you had yet to work with lines really well. The colors are also pretty simplistic with how everything is just one shade. I guess you just stopped working on stuff that featured this Braden guy. I am surprised that I got as far as I did as I got a good 10,000 points.
