Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Forever Samurai]

Awesome!

This was one of the best samurai games I have every played! The art was simply fantastic and I loved how everything looked, especially the flowing water and the bright colors. The designs of the enemies were some of the best I've ever seen, especially the weird banshee things. I think that what really won me over was how the ghosts came into your body after being killed once. It was a very nice experience playing this, even if my computer lagged a bit. One of your better games and one thing that sets you as one of my favorite game designers!

acrazycanadian responds:

Aw shucks, you're too nice. Funny you mention the flowing water, I had so much trouble making it not look horrific that I eventually gave up and just never used it again. Ha!

[Level Editor]

I loved it!!

At first, I was thinking this was a customizable game, but it didn't even need to be! This worked wonderfully as a stand-alone game with lots of unexpected things going on! I enjoyed the graphics which worked well with the environment. It really was a game that made a person think but unlike some others, it wasn't insanely hard. It really gave me a sense of wonder and intuition on what to do next. I knew eventually I was going to favorite something form KingDotCom (sponsor at least)!

KingDotCom responds:

Finally - we've been waiting for you to add our games to favorites! ;) Thanks for playing and reviewing.

[Effect Compilation]

Woah, fantastic!

I doubt that I'm ever really going to get into flash making myself, but I like watching this! These are some really cool effects and it's so nice to talk about how they were even created in the first place. I like tutorials, even though I don't read them really, because you just never know when they'll come in handy. The music was pretty awesome as well. The information was presented in a very clear and understandable format as well. You obviously have a talent for this sort of thing.

thanks :)

[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.

AethosGames responds:

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

[Letter RIP]

NIce effects!

While it may not have been much for actual gameplay, I was still quite impressed by this game. The CG graphics were done just very well and I admit that it was a pretty interesting idea to just shoot these weirdos who had letters for bodies. None of it makes sense, but at least it's nice to look at, which will make it good enough to recommend.

bossmonsterDanbo responds:

Thanks! *Sigh* Yeah, I rarely focus on making my games make sense. ;)

[Windows Doors]

FANTASTIC!!

Due to the fact that I'm using a computer, well, right now, I just like the concept of a computer within a computer, not to mention that one of the games on Newgrounds (in this thing) is a computer on a computer on a computer! It's always great to appreciate how much effort is put into the actual making of a computer and then applying it to your own talent! I thought the choice of flashes, games, pictures, etc. was very funny and it's truly something you can spend all day on, due to the fact that you can already spend all day on the Internet. Hee hee.

Archawn responds:

Hee hee clever.

[Da Game]

Hey, not bad!

While not one of the best games I've ever played, I really have to give you a good score for creativity. This worked really well as a goofy game similar to "The Impossible Quiz". Like that one, I doubt I'm going to be finishing this any time soon. This may have been a little lowbrow (with the white background) but it was goofy enough to like.

Speyedur responds:

Thank's!!! and ya... i liked the idea of the impossible quiz i just wanted to make a game like that without a bunch of questions everyone has to cheat to figure out.. so basicly i wanted to make an impossible quiz without the questions

[Madness Deathwish 2]

Nice game

I admit that it did get a little montonous (just shooting over and over), but it was still presented in a very interesting way as it's really hard to go wrong when you have a game that's so straight-forward shooting over and over. I think my favorite was the level where the jetpack guys first appeared and they exploded when they died. It sure is harder to kill these guys than in regular Madness Combat stuff, but the ones at the start couldn't use guns, so I guess it evens out.

Arkuni responds:

Yeah. Without the customization, it would have been pretty bland and generic.

[How To Draw 7: Cars]

Not bad

When I first saw this, I was thinking it may have been about how to draw seven cars (hence the title) but of course I've realized that it now means that it is the seventh in a series of tutorials. That being said, I can admire this for what it's supposed to be. I have never made any good drawings by myself and certainly none that I've ever submitted to places like Deviantart or even here. I think the tips for this were good and although they may not suit my ideals specifically, it's the thought that counts.

Aprime responds:

lol, thank you very much for this review
I hope it helped you to draw :D
Check out the other tutorials too.. if you haven't done so already

Thanksss
:D

[Shun]

A great game!

I'm very impressed by this! The graphics themselves were very nice and so was the actual gameplay. I thought it was odd that I was just moving around (I thought maybe I had missed something in the tutorial, but I hadn't). While it wasn't an offensive game (you know, where you could actually shoot the stuff coming after you, which I'm more used to doing) it worked very well as a defensive game that really keeps you on your toes.

mofunzone responds:

Thanks man! :)
