Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[No Turning Back]

Pretty good game

I admit that the graphics in this were pretty simplistic looking. Of course, seeing as how it had such an upbeat tune, I could not help but think that that was part of the appeal of the game. I am not able to advance very far, due to some glitch where I keep jumping up and down. When I do that, I hit the red square which kills me simply be touching it. This game does seem to have some appeal, due to the fact that it has a really cute premise. It has most of the things you would want in a game like this, and the music is pretty nice.

I'm glad u like the music.

Needs some work

My biggest gripe with this game is that the numbers and words are simply cut off and I am not able to read them. It is also the kind of game that really needs some music. It should not be that hard to find given as how the game is pretty simple. I have played games like this and I was never a fan of them unless I knew how to win. I suggest you make the instructions a bit more clear as it was hard for me to make out what the objects shown in the game were. It was at least not terrible.

Thank you for your review, this was the first game I released. I had forgotten to include the font, because of this Flash uses the default font which makes the texts unreadable at times.

[Notepad Drawing Collab 2008]

Great work

I am going to act silly again and say that a big factor in how awesome this was, was how easy it was to get the medals. It's probably the only one where I did not have to look for a walkthrough to get everything. I figured out to just click anything along the way. As for the collab itself, it's a great piece of work as it does showcase some of Newgrounds' best work. Everything is covered here from things like Godzilla to knife fights and generic people. While there is not much going on, it's like going through the Art Portal without having to click so many different things.

Thanks ^^

[Ghostscape 2 - The Cabin]

Very cool

I think this probably has the best graphics of any point and click adventure that I have ever played! While I loved traditional animation, it is exciting to see more games have CGI-like effects. The music was also really creepy and fit the mood well. I doubt I will ever give a 10 to any point 'n click adventure, simply because there has never been one that I can get through on my own. Of course, it was really nice to include the walkthrough. You do know how to set the mood well.

Psionic3D responds:

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the atmosphere!!

[Flanders Killer 3]

More addictive than I thought

The animation really looked like it needed an update, so I thought this was would be pretty amateur. It helps that it's fun to shoot things, but to shoot everyone on the end was just awesome! The Simpsons music that was used throughout the game was also funny. There was a glitch on one level where I couldn't kill one of the boys, but I could just play this game over and over and it wouldn't matter. I liked how Maude turned into an angel when she died as he did die in the series. While not the biggest fan of "The Simpsons" it's still a good play.

Aprime responds:

Hey thanks for the review.. Very much appreciated..
I'm not so sure why you couldn't kill one of the boys on a level.. cos the characters are copied and pasted into each scene.. just with different movement..
Thats kinda strange.. I'm glad you liked it regardless of that

Again thanks for the review

[what's your symbol-quiz 2]

How nice

This was a very enjoyable quiz to take, if only because the premise of it is so nice. We're not talking about something like astrology where we predict what will happen to a person. We're talking about just a casual little game we can play to put ourselves into an archetype. The music was great and it fit my "Water" style of serenity quite well. These are the kinds of things that we partake in everyday life and it's great how we can associate ourselves with it. I am glad you took the time and effort to make something as pleasant as this.

Thank you :)

[Sketchbook]

Some of your best!

I have followed your Deviantart profile and I really liked the stuff you had, but seeing so much of this in its rawest form was simply fantastic! You are one of the most creative people on this website and you've come up with some great designs. I love how so much detail is put into every part of the drawing. The music is also very soft and pleasant. I couldn't believe how long this was; it's just great to see that all of your hard work has mounted up to something that thousands of people can enjoy! I could just flip through this whole thing all day and never be bored.

matt-likes-swords responds:

Thank ye.

[Paradox Embrace]

It was cool!

This has got to be one of the most awkward games I have ever played! Admittedly, it did get a little annoying and hard to understand, but it's the creativity that really counts. I guess the "paradox" was supposed to be the world of the natural, scientific, and magic living in the same dimension, which was really cool. The hero and the villians were nice too and it was cool how they disappeared in some settings. It was also a creative use of color, not to mention sound. I had a lot of fun playing this.

EntropicOrder responds:

Did you find this more awkward than Ching Chong Beautiful? Not sure if you're talking about the controls or the exploration. Glad it didn't stop you from enjoying it though!
