Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cold]

Well, you just clicked on a white guy the whole time. Well, everything's white I guess. I...thought it was pretty easy to understand. It just wasn't that interesting. Maybe there could have been upgrades or something as you went along? Still, the animation was quite nice.

It's at least an original idea. That's not always a good thing. I liked how easy the medals were. That's what an easy game should have! Well, maybe not.

Thank you for the feedback!

[Pablo Post-It's Journey Home]

This game was better than I thought. I think the best part was how simple it was. That also may have been the worst part. It needed some more detail. Still, it wasn't intended to be that complicated. I figured out I could move anywhere with the piece of paper.

Just jump and move the paper up while you're in the air. It can get hard, but it's the best way I can advance in some situations. Oh hey, I liked being able to use different characters in the game. The medals tell you how to do that anyway. It does seem like a "Fancy Pants Adventures" game.

[Pizza Kidd - NEW DEMO! 🍕🔥]

I was very impressed by this game! It was the best thing I've seen all day on this website! I knew it would get a higher score eventually. Who knew collecting pizza would be so cool? There were burgers too. I appreciate all the detail put into the enemies.

That big guy did get annoying. He must have had a health bar. I'm glad I could find new creative ways to fight. I mostly figured them out on my own. Sometimes, you just smash things to get them out of the way.

PizzaKiddo responds:

Amazing feedback! We will continue to improve the game’s GUI and enemy HB system — to appear more clear + intuitive! 🙏🍕❤️🦾

[Botanica (DEMO)]

Hmm, well I was able to use a seed, but it only appeared onscreen for a second or two. I couldn't really use it. Whatever, this was an enjoyable game even if I couldn't advance that far. The music was nice and soothing. The best part was probably how I had good mobility. It was a unique way of attacking.

You omitted any black lines. I should take note of that in more games. Was I supposed to jump on top of the plant immediately as it grew? I put in below me, but it couldn't propel me anywhere. At least I knew how to aim it.

[Madness Deathwish]

I've played Madness games before, but this one was truly unique. It was mostly because you died, but also got to kill a bunch of other characters. I mean, every kill was unique. Not just every death of yourself. My favorite was the "Powers of the blood god". Dang, that's a cool title.

Not even you could prepare yourself for that. Every kill was extremely unique there. I guess I shouldn't tell you how to get the Easter eggs. Just uh, click on stuff. That's how you get Easter eggs in Homestar Runner cartoons! We do run out of ammo eventually.

[Pico & Schmuck Save Tankmas]

Wow, that was a truly bizarre game. It was more like a visual novel. Oh, it WAS a visual novel. I won't tell you about the medals, but it should be easy to figure out. The talking did go on too long. I liked how you could skip everything.

People would still want to get the whole story. We got a ton of stuff for Christmas this year! Thanks to the collab, it's probably the most of any year ever! I do like Dr. Schmuck's voice. This was certainly a unique game.

NattoSumi responds:

Fun fact this was originally intended as a portion of another project that didn't quite come together in time so we made it into its own game! Thanks for playing and Happy New Year!

[Pengu: Lost and Wanted DEMO]

You can play this on a game pad? How fitting I'm seeing Sonic in the background while playing this. You had to figure out how your own how to double jump. Well, it only got you a little further. Every little bit does count. I wasn't sure how to use those rings at first.

Luckily, I could use them when I needed them. Featured on the top of the frontpage with no medals and a score not higher than 4.19? That's quite impressive! Penguins are rather cool. The name sounds like Pingu.

[The Supernatural Power Troll]

This was an enjoyable game to play, but it was very odd. I often didn't know what to do next. The worst part was probably how the enemies came back to life. Or were those new enemies? It was certainly unpredictable. At least I could jump on some of the enemies.

I thought the keys were the only things you could pick up. I should have paid more attention to the instructions. That really was a long cutscene. You deserve your medal for this! The YouTube videos were a nice touch.

jacklehamster responds:

I'm glad I didn't cut down on all the cutscenes!
I was really debating on that, but at the end I felt I needed a backstory for bosses, and knowing more about the troll.

[SCAMS_FOR_THRILLS]

I have to admit this wasn't quite that entertaining. It was at least passable. I liked the different things to do, but I didn't quite understand them. I tried just clicking the scam button over and over. It didn't work. I at least managed to get some medals.

It just wasn't that interesting. I'd probably need to see a walkthrough. I would have to train to get it down really well. It just comes off as too boring. There was still some variety, though.
