Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Runes of Shalak]

Very innovative

I was very impressed at how cool this game turned out to be. It didn't have all that much detail, with the lack of color and all, but it was still extremely fun to play! Speaking of the background, I just think the blurry background, though, is a really nice atomsphere. It's a small game in size, so it's something you can concentrate on fairly easily. It certainly gets hard as you go on, but at least you were nice enough to give out a medal for completing the first simple level. It conforms to what you would want in an action game and is still original.

[Last Breath : Overwhelmed]

Pretty good

It wasn't the best game I have ever played, but it was at least pretty fun. My biggest complaint is that the ships need to be designed better. It was in fact pretty hard, as there weren't a lot of powerups around for wider shooter range. It's still nice to see how far a person can get, just by how skilled they are. I really liked it how those missiles came out and destroyed the out of reach targets. All of the diifferent kinds of music used were very cool, and I truly enjoyed listening to them.

[Republican Talking Points]

It wasn't terrible

The animation could have been much better, but I actually did like how it did seem kind of cheesy. The blood especially reminds me of the times of 2000 and the like. I think it was funny how he mentioned the player was playing the actual cartoon expecting those things. I guess it may look a little dated, but we are still in Iraq. I suggest that you work on animation with better shadings and some wittier things. It is a little generic, but it's kind of fun while it lasts.

[Fat Slice]

Very creative!

I was very impressed at how fun this managed to be! I was at first thinking how it wasn't that of an original idea, but I liked how the colors and the words inside seemed to be designed well. It would've helped if there was some music, but the sound effects were well done enough. The gameplay is pretty simple in nature, but it knows how to be complicated. If there's one hit, it's over, and they can't be in seperate squares. This is a pretty interesting puzzle game that manages to be easy to understand, yet also difficult as you go on.

[Spartaman 2]

Madness! Madness!

Well, I have to say that while I didn't play the first game in this series, this was quite awesome. I thought it was annoying how the messenger was unkillable, but then I realised you could use "space" as the attack. It was fun how you could go anywhere and never be killed by anything. I'm not that big a fan of the original Mega Man games, but this was quite enjoyable. I especially liked the part where the plane appeared. I haven't been that tired of the "This is Sparta!" meme, but you make good points.

[The Scale of the Universe]

.....................

That is among the most amazing things I have ever seen on Newgrounds, or even on the Internet. What makes this so brilliant is that it goes lower than you could ever think of. I thought that the smallest thing imaginable was a quark, but apparently there's much bigger. I've seen stuff like this before, but this is by far the best way it has ever been visualized in anything before. It makes you realize how small we are, and yet how big we are at the same time. It makes you appreciate all of the beauty of the Universe and how amazing it is to simply be alive.

You may not be religious, but I believe that all of this is here because of a purpose which is why I am religious. We have no clue why it's here, but it's here for some reason we may never even find out. Thank you for showing us the most fascinating things that exist in the real world.

[Thingfection]

Hey, that was cool!

I admit it was pretty hard for me to understand at first, but it got better once I could understand it! It seems like I've been playing a lot of games that have the virus theme. I thought the graphics were simply amazing, especially with how much depth the cells had. I at first thought the yellow cells were the ones being infected. I'm not that good at this game, but that didn't stop me from enjoying how innovative it is! It's a game that requires a lot of skill that the player can work on.

[Huje Adventure]

Fantastic!

I have no clue why this isn't in the Top 100, as it's one of the greatest games I have ever played! It helps that the animation is so spectactular, seeing as how it seems to mix CGI and 2D animation together. I also loved how it changed with the closeups and made the game more challenging. I'm glad to say that I raised this from a 3.77 to 3.78, you're welcome. It was a real adventure, but it also worked great as a puzzle game. It's too bad you haven't achieved more recognition for this masterpiece.

[Avoid the Spikes!]

Hey, not the worst!

It's too bad this has such a low score as it's nothing particularly terrible. I mean, yeah, it would've been a lot nicer if there had been sound of any kind to it. The plain white background also takes away a lot of the enjoyment. I still have to give you credit for creating an interesting game, especially with how you don't lose your points in a new game! It was also cool how the thing disappeared while you lost points. With a lot of brushing up, this could be a lot more popular.

[Snake With Bethoveen]

Hey, it's nice!

Beethoven is in fact one of my favorite classical composers (although, heck, he's probably my favorite). I thought it was going to be a cartoon about a snake who met Beethoven! You made something that was really loyal to the original "Snake" game. I'm not that good at that, but it's the kind of fast paced thing that you can get hooked on. I really like the simplistic design and how it works well with the context of the game. It may not have been the most creative, but it was good enough to recommend.
