Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kingdoms: Nobility]

It's pretty good

I was a big fan of the SimCity games, but I was just never able to get into other games of this genre. I guess it helps that I looked up what the stuff was supposed to be built by, and it did motivate you more to do things. It was always pretty well designed, as it did the standard CGI from KingDotCom. I also liked your intro and thought that was a part of the game at first. The music was also nice and it fit the mood well. While not the most addictive of games, this was good enough to recommend to someone who likes these sort of things.

[Obey! The Game]

Very strange game

This has got to be one of the oddest games that I have ever played. It's like "Springtime For Hitler" where I am trying to fail. I couldn't even tell if when it said, "Fail" it meant that I had failed the level or if I had succeeded in failing? I swear I'm not even doing anything and yet for some reason I win, or fail? It said "survive" and I died and that meant I failed it, or I failed at failing, meaning I did fail? An another note, the graphics were nice and the controls were really smooth.

[Armored Ashura 2]

I wasn't expecting this!

Well, I had no idea there was going to be a sequel to the original great game! I was impressed at the designs of the different enemies, especially those annoying little green things. Sure it doesn't give you medals, but that's no reason to have it be so much lower than the previous entry. My biggest complaint was that it was too hard at times. I couldn't believe it was casual at one point with the sheer number of crazy things going on! Anyway, the action and weapons (well, attack styles) were as good as ever.

[Obechi]

Woah, great!

I have been chronicling all of the stuff you have submitted to this website and this is among your best! It's great to know that an underdog like you won Daily 2nd Place and got such a high rating. This was really fun as it used a lot of bright colors. The music was nice as well as the sound you made when you collected them. I could not understand it at first, but now that I can, it's very addictive. If you keep submitting more great games like this, you will be sure to get the recognition you deserve!

thank you ericho!

[Ninjaman!]

I like ninjas!

It was funny how you went with the idea of the blue ninja; many are quite visible. Anyway, this was a really fun game to play because it was easy to understand. All of the little things you did on the way made it so much funner. It was just fun to fight as many enemies as you get and see them die with that weird green blood. I also like the music, especially how it starts off slow but gets faster as the enemies come. It's a pity you haven't submitted stuff in a long time, as this could be worked on in a sequel.

Wonderful stuff

This was one of the most colorful games that I have ever played! Granted, the entire thing is in black and white but it still does a great job of being colorful. I am so glad you were able to get the proper credit for creating this masterpiece. It is very authentic to the feel of not just old gangster movies, but of classic cartoons like Felix the Cat. I just freaking loved how goofy the characters looked as they moved. I am hoping to find a sequel to this that is longer, as it was a little too short.

[Slide Racing]

A good game

While not the most impressive racing game out there, this was done very nicely. I really liked the graphics and the designs of the characters and cars seem to fit pretty well. There was really nothing wrong with the controls, though I never was really good at racing games. It is interesting to keep track of where you are in relations to the other cars. Maybe someday I will actually get far in one of these things. It was a good use of color and few flaws to say it was bad.

CATS EAT CAT FOOD

All the cats in the town are out of cat food. Are you ready to go and get the cat food from the nearest town?

Seriously thought, I guess this was a pretty interesting thing to submit. It wasn't a game in the strictest of sense and I was a bit disappointed that you couldn't actually play any of the games that were there or that we made up. At least you really allowed us to become creative and make our own. It is kind of funny to see which one shows up next.

[Arthropod Armada]

A game?

I think this may in fact be the first game I have ever played that featured art by ZekeySpaceyLizard! This isn't of course to say I didn't appreciate the work the rest of you guys did, like Bug. I think this may be the only time where every contributor had a different job! The result is a fun game that has everything you could want from a standard game. I thought the backgrounds and enemies were all quite interesting. It is great to see a lot of people come together to make something that is truly fun.

DAIRYDOG responds:

You are especially positive about this project, thank you.

[Project Validus: Survival]

It had its good points

It didn't help that I wasn't able to get far in this game at all really. I was a bit disappointed by how the zombies didn't seem to have much variety in their appearances. Still, I have played many zombie games and I believe this was a decent effort. It's hard to not enjoy any game of its kind. I mean, it's not like the animation was really bad or that the weapons were hard to use (well, maybe a little). All in all, this kind of gameplay doesn't really work well for me.
