Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[planet creator demo 2]

It was decent

Like many games before, this game makes the big mistake of choosing not to have any audio in it at all, which is never really good. I will admit that for that major flaw, it did have a lot of good qualities. As I am a big history buff, it made sense that I could follow through all the historical parts. It was almost like "SimCity" in that you build your own community but could have something like UFOs attacking. However, the graphics in this really do need work and it could be enjoyable that way. It was overall okay.

neverzonegaming responds:

thanks i was thinking there could be some choices that may lead you though the correct events in history and other choices that are outcmes and things that could have happened in history

[Pyroscape 2]

A great underdog!

This has everything that is necessary to win Underdog Of The Week Award and you deserved it! I do not think this was as good as the first one probably only because it was a little harder. It is pretty funny to just run around and hear hte comments these morons make. The game pretty much plays itself by just walking around and clicking everything in sight. The funniest comment is probably about the fire and the d*ck. The cutscenes were pretty cool and it is nice to see live-action stuff for a change.

Fro responds:

Hey sir. I may be a moron, but one thing that I am not sir, is a morn.

Best work

I have to admire this just for the sheer number of pieces of music that were used to make this amazing game! I am quite impressed at how great the graphics are and how fluidly the characters move. It is a very bizarre game and I doubt that I will even ever be able to understand it fully. What matters is that you have absolutely no idea what is going to happen next. I can not even tell how much damage the enemies are supposed to give me. It even reckons back to the days of classic side-scrollers like Super Mario Bros.

TrueDarkness responds:

This is the most interesting review I've ever read. Thank you

[Crossing the Pit]

Good for first

I can tell that this is your first submission as it has pretty simplistic animation. However, I still found it pretty enjoyable and it was pretty good when I gave it the chance. Some of the outcomes were predictable, especially with the teleporter thing. I suggest that next time you work on more of a background or at least with better colors. The sounds used in this are probably the most fun part. People have submitted things like this before (choosing the death of someone) but I still found this to be kind of original.

PuffballsUnited responds:

Next time I did work on the background :P

[Pixel Legions]

Quite different

This is one of the most unique games that I have played in a long time and it was so easy to just fall in love with how cool it was! I was not able to fight any more than 1 guy at a time and I find it hard to imagine how anyone could win this game. What matters is that the design is just so awesome not to mention how fun it is to just draw lines. I do not even care how far I get, I just care that I am playing something so cool. I love how the simplistic white lines contrast with the computerized blocks. It probably does take strategy.

acrazycanadian responds:

Fighting multiple enemies is all about tactics. Don't fight when you don't have to, let your enemies duke it out. Sweep in and crush them when you've got the chance.

[Ether Of Magic Cards]

Not bad!

When I first heard about the rules of this game, I thought it was going to be about "Yu-Gi-Oh". I actually do think that the card game itself is better than the show. Anyway, I love how you seemed to truly work hard to create something original. It was probably more fun than any standard card game would be, as I am not really a fan of those in the first place. I think the designs of the characters and the cards are all pretty creative. I normally do not like this games, but this one had so much going for it.

XweaselX responds:

Thanks for that th dev really made it work with careful balence. with some good animation

[Greek & Wicked]

Very weird

Well, this has seriously got to be one of the weirdest games that I have ever encountered. It is not so much that it is hard to play, it is just that I do not understand how to do anything. I mean, I attack the hydra as best I can, using both attack patterns but my score is still 0. I guess it is still a pretty unique game, as with the graphics and everything. While the gameplay may be incomprehensible, I have to give you credit for creativity. It would have been a little nicer if there was a song playing.

SwingSwing responds:

If a little hydra doesn't disappear, so you haven't killed it (that's why you gain no points).
You should try to stunt it and then find a solution to crush its head :)

[Wayfinder: Episode One]

Pretty good

As I am not a fan of point-and-click adventures, this did not appeal to me. What did appeal to me, however, was how well the animation and character designs were. It was great to have so many unique voices work on this, as there was obviously effort put into this. I keep thinking every game where I talk to women is going to be a hentai game. Anyway, the music is alright and the overall setting is pretty interesting. It of course always helps that you guys were nice enough to tell where the walkthrough was.

Hyptosis responds:

haha, no problem, thanks for the feedback! ^^

[The Final Death Wish]

Final Death Wish?

I like this game a lot, because it is really cool with how you are able to just shoot these guys over and over. I guess the idea is really creative, especially with how the guy thinks his Jesus and that guy's God. I imagine that some good things would indeed come from the Recycle Bin. I will say that the one thing you could have improved on this was being able to crotch down. Those little beetle things would not have much of a chance to hit you if you could do that. The music is also nice.

Arkuni responds:

The music is awesome! Thanks a lot to Kimken for making it!

[Faen]

It is very strange

I can tell this is your first game as it shows off a style that is just very out of the ordinary. What I mean is, it feels as thought you are not sure of what technique you want to use. Normally, I am a fan of more action games but this was actually pretty playable. You were not able to do much at all except press some buttons at a certain time. I was even able to get as far as Level 3, and I still do not understand what this game means. I guess it is a very interesting journey into this website as it is quite incomprehensible.

Propell responds:

When I made this game I experimented with Actionscript for the first time. I found out with the code I understood I could make a type of "healing-game", like in world of warcraft. Basically it is the same as world of warcraft (as the healer role) without the graphics.
This website is filled with interesting stuff. I have also been browsing a lot on this site :)
