Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Exmortis]

Very creepy!

You have done a great job of making this a creepy game and the graphics are great they hold up to modern standards! The only thing that kept me from giving this a 5 was how everything is clicked on, so it's hard to find what it is that's clickable in the first place! I still loved the atmosphere and those creepy screams shown at the beginning. There's no music, simply because it's a very authentic scary game made. There's no glamor or crazy stuff going on, just the right amount of creepiness. I'm very surprised this didn't win a single award.

[Mechanical Commando 2]

The boss stuff is awesome!

I knew that a combination from people like BerzerkStudio and KingDotCom would be something fantastic! I remember playing the original game, and thought how cool it was how the machine moved. I think what really separates this from a lot of other stuff is that you can actually take control of the boss and use its same power! I don't like it how it's too big to go through certain spaces, though. I really like the simplistic graphics that work so well in their coolness. The music is also cool and fits the theme well.

[Gray]

It was certainly unique

I wish I could understand how to play this game well, as I am pretty lost in it. I am glad that I was at least able to get one person to go on my side, but not much luck with anyone else. It's the kind of game where the directions are hard to understand. I will say that I really liked the graphics and the character design in this one. It seemed to be a great metaphor about standing out and trying to make peace with everybody. The way it resembled an old TV made it seem really authentic.

[Classic Zork Trilogy]

Never played it

When I first heard the term "Zork" I thought it was that monster from "Yu-Gi-Oh", but apparently it's something else. I can say that I don't really like these games much, as there is little action. I am, of course, open-minded and I did manage to get pretty far with the right directions. It would have been better if there was some music in this or sound effects. I suppose this is a pretty good represenation of a game like this, even if I haven't played "Zork" before. It is kind of interesting to find out what will happen next.

[Russian Affairs]

The graphics are good

The strongest point in this game are its graphics and I really like how the characters move around. It seems similar to this movie I saw (well, I saw part of it) called "Waking Life". Its weakest point was understanding it, as I really couldn't get far. It was funny to just see me run around and get shot and die all those times. I think this is a pretty interesting theme to work with, as it is something I do not see often. The cutscenes are also pretty impressive and well made.

[BLOBS!]

Better than I thought

This is good reason as to why I shouldn't care about the year it was made or the ranking, as it was very good! Sure, it was very hard and I don't think I even did most of the stuff I could with the defenses. The graphics look a little simplistic, but they work well for a game that does require a lot of skill as it goes on. It was easy to do, as you simply touched the little blobs to get rid of them. The powerups and other tactical things were also well used. You could definitley make a second one with better graphics and gameplay.

[Proximity]

A great game!

This is one of the best games that I have rediscovered! It was difficult for me to figure out how to play it, but I learned how, and then I had a lot more fun with it. It's so good even when you don't know the rules, you seem to be having fun. My only complaint is that I would have liked some music in this. It's still an interesting puzzle game, and it works because you don't know what number's going to come up next. It is pretty addicting in its own right as it's hard for me to win.

[Suicide Bob]

The original suicide game

I thought the animation was okay. I mean, I thought the backgrounds were done in a pretty good way, but it was really the design of the characters that threw me off. I will say that I liked how it was a pretty challenging game and one of the first where you actually had to die to lose. It is kind of interesting to see how things will play out in the next level. At first I was thinking it was just too easy, but it does in fact have some interesting strategy going for it. If you could update the character designs, it would be much better.

[Silhouette - Game]

Wasn't terrible

I think this is a pretty interesting idea for a game, even if the angle isn't something original. I'm not used to these kinds of controls, and can't even remember how to use those stupid WASD keys. At least it seemed to be an appropriate setting for this kind of game. It was very hard for me and I would have liked it better if you could regenerate health at the end of the level. It is kind of weird how I do want to keep playing it, because I just want to see what happens next. The game seems simple, but it's anything but!

[Flanders Killer 3]

More addictive than I thought

The animation really looked like it needed an update, so I thought this was would be pretty amateur. It helps that it's fun to shoot things, but to shoot everyone on the end was just awesome! The Simpsons music that was used throughout the game was also funny. There was a glitch on one level where I couldn't kill one of the boys, but I could just play this game over and over and it wouldn't matter. I liked how Maude turned into an angel when she died as he did die in the series. While not the biggest fan of "The Simpsons" it's still a good play.

Aprime responds:

Hey thanks for the review.. Very much appreciated..
I'm not so sure why you couldn't kill one of the boys on a level.. cos the characters are copied and pasted into each scene.. just with different movement..
Thats kinda strange.. I'm glad you liked it regardless of that

Again thanks for the review
