Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Escape from the Castle]

More updates?

Wow, I'm not a fan of RPG's, but I was quite impressed by what I saw! It's great that you're putting in all of these updates. Let me start off by saying that I'm very impressed by the use of CGI. It does a very good job of avoiding the Uncanny Valley (the belief that before hitting something looking just like a human, something that looks like a human looks creepy). The inventory was also a nice touch, and you really have a lot of items around and things to do. Music wasn't too bad either and I liked its change.

[T E T R I S ' D: The Game]

Great game!

I was waiting for this game to come out! I really liked the graphics, and even though they may not have seemed like much, they worked very well in delivering the feeling of "Tetris" to the viewer. This is probably the first game I've played like this, even though it does seem familiar. Probably because I saw the movies and knew it was going to be like this. It was a little hard at first, but it's really something a person could work on, and it's so cool to see those achievements come up. Can't wait for the medal releases!

[Revert to Growth]

Very nice!

It's getting hard to beat these games now that I do not see the medals. Your website doesn't work well in giving the answers. Anyway, I thought that this was very artistic. It had a very original idea, what with using plants to move up to collect parts for a ship. I also thought the graphics were pretty good, especially with how the character was drawn. The music also works well for being pleasant too.

Thanks for playing :) Note that the site you are refering to is the sponsors site, not my site.

[Saucer Strike]

Hmm, not bad

I admit that I wasn't that excited at first when there didn't appear to be any enemies, but it definitley got better as it went along! The second level was nice, as I could basically just go and blast through anything I wanted, and move along the screen just keeping my finger on the button. It was kind of funny how they gradually exploded as I kept thinking they were done with one explosion. It's great to see some new stuff from you, Weasel. While the graphics weren't the best I've seen from you, and it was kind of redundant, I still liked it. I look forward to more stuff you make.

[Atomic Super Boss]

Hmmm, not bad

This wasn't one of my favorite games, but it was certainly quite impressive. I guess it was just supposed to be one level of play. This may have made it less enjoyable than other games, but you put in some impressive sprite graphics. It's an interesting concept to turn a single boss battle into a whole game. I don't even know if there's a way to even beat this guy. It was also really cool how you automatically hit when you were just pressing the button.

[Super Bowl Defender rel.]

One of the best football games!

I'm not a fan of football (games or otherwise) but this was very innovative! I at first didn't know what to do and thought I could touched the guy to tackle him, but figured out the "Z" command. I don't know if I've ever played a football game that had upgrades! It sort of reminded me of defense games in that sense. I was also very impressed by the use of CGI and it really gives the characters a lot of movement. The comment about how the car was just there was pretty funny as well.

[Cyber Ortek Flier]

Again!

Why wasn't ArmorGames credited? Anyway, I was very impressed by this. I think I may have played one of your other games (although I can't tell the name at the moment), but this was great. The designs of the dragons were very well done. I don't understand what those ice ships were supposed to be, but they were very cool at least. The effects of the dragons breathing the different kinds of fire (especially the green color) was nice as well.

[Trap Master]

A very original game!

At first I thought this was going to be a game where you, as a farmer, were defeating monsters. I thought it was weird how it mentioned you would eat your enemies. I'm glad to say it turned out to be something way more original! The design of the monster and the settings are done wonderfully, and it is fun to eat those guys. My only complaint is that it takes a while to eat them, but with harder work, I should be able to win. The grids showing the enemies was an excellent touch as well!

[SOL: Dawn]

Not too shabby!

I am not a fan of RPG's, so I wasn't expecting to be interested in this, but it was nice! The graphics were pretty nicely done and so was the music. The character designs were really interesting, especially with the choices at the beginning. It was fun to talk to those people even if it wasn't a very open space. The enemies were designed pretty well too. It was a bit hard to defeat them, as I couldn't tell how close I was, but overall a well-done game.

[Colour My World]

Very graceful!

I'm not that familiar with your work, but I'm glad to be more accustomed to it! I was very impressed by the style of this one, just like the other one. The music was simply fantastic and the graphics were great too. My only complaint is that when you go near the broken place and pull the lever and jump all the way up, it's hard to touch the destination, not to mention you die if you try too many times. Still, I loved the little signs that were everywhere and of course the cool clickable things. You have good talent.
