Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Money Man: Classic]

Uh, wow. It's amazing that this simplistic game had so many people working on it. I will always give you credit for that. I will admit that it didn't look good at all. I thought this red thing was a goomba at first. I didn't even know you had to go on a computer in-universe to play it. At least I managed to get that done.

It's kind of unique, I suppose. I at least wish that I was able to get past Level 2. Everything looks like strawberries here. Well, something with this many medals can't be that bad. This isn't under the "Spam" genre so it's serious.

beenibroh responds:

i totally agree man
the game is really good and was a lot of fun to work on, had a lot of love too
the levels are very challenging but thats kinda of the point of the game, hell i couldnt get passed level 3 myself

but its still a nice little game

[O Mighty Snakedragon]

I didn't really care for this game, mostly because I couldn't understand it. I mean, it wasn't done with good controls. I couldn't move around well. I thought it would have a lot more action. I guess it deserves points for being unique. Chinese dragons are always pretty cool.

I like the music too. The gameplay just doesn't do it for me. I can still appreciate that there was some effort. It just didn't make sense. At least it was nicely animated.

OmarShehata responds:

I'm really curious to hear more about why the movement didn't work for you! Were you able to push the clouds where you wanted? Or did you just find that difficult?

[Bacon Simulator]

Hmm, didn't work for me. You needed a timer, like the toaster one.

Ant responds:

There is a timer dude, idk wth happened :/

[You are red. You are blue.]

This was a great game, but I couldn't get past the level with the two long blocks. That is, there were only two. I got one of them off, but then I still couldn't advance. I did love the rest of the game though. It seemed too easy at first.

Then we got to that level where I couldn't advance. This is shaping up to be a great jam! This is definitely a cool theme too. The music was nice, but I wish there was a way to reset a level. It is indeed very emotional.

Bogden400 responds:

Thanks for the comment! The text for that level says "Maybe your mouse could set you right?". The intent was to let the player know that the right mouse button could be used to drag the camera around and change their perspective. Were you able to figure that out in the end?

[Piconjo: AFK]

I had no idea this would be so fun! Okay, it's a game where you do practically nothing, but that's what made it awesome! It would mostly be nothing without the medals. I just love peaceful it is. It's easy to see why this is the highest ranked submission for Piconjo Day 2021! It can take hours to beat, but I don't care!

I just love how it's so serene. That is what catching fish is like, huh? I could just watch this all day and get all my medals. Happy Piconjo Day 2021! I can easily say it's the best Piconjo Day ever! I've just been so busy lately, it's nice to have some light stuff to play.

Stepford responds:

It's the first Piconjo Day, so even if it was absolutely awful - it would still 'technically' be the "BEST" Piconjo Day ever!

Jokes aside, thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoy the game so much.

[Piconjo Sp33ch]

I have to admit I was underwhelmed. I mean, it was just me typing stuff in. That was it. I guess that is the point of Piconjo. Well, Happy Piconjo Day anyway! This does fit his theme. I guess it's just a day for high ratings.

You type stuff and that's it. I really did like the music, though. You know how to create some good atmosphere with this. Well, I played it on 6/9. That's pretty clever.

larrynachos responds:

Yeah it's incredibly basic, I was shocked when it was front paged. It was a neat opportunity for me to try doing something I haven't done before (replacing text), and it seems to have entertained enough people :)

One feature I wanted but couldn't achieve was to have the text be read aloud via text to speech xD

Thanks for stopping by!

[EFHH]

I didn't understand the title at first. I know realize it's an acronym. I appreciate the idea. Are these people zombies? I think they're just delusional old people. That's just how popular zombies are. I like the idea.

It just seemed too slow for me. I imagine that's what a happy home is like. The medals are set up in a really cool way. It just doesn't do it for me. I need to train at it.

CaldoChica responds:

sorry about, I appreciate you taking the time to play though and give it a shot, it really means a lot. Also If you get to the later part or end, you find out what/who the Men in Blue are, but I don't want to spoil anything haha.

[Newgrounds Snowboarding]

I couldn't get into this. I'm not much into snowboarding, then again. I'm just not motivated to get more money. It just seemed like you were going in the same places over and over. I have to give you props for having this get frontpaged. I mean, this is the first time I've seen it!

I don't recall Phil. I'm glad you mentioned where he came from. I never got into those "Riddle School" games. I know they get super high ratings here, though. Happy belated Pico Day and a belated birthday to me as well!

MSGhero responds:

We thought the links would be really helpful for all the new peeps joining the site, as well as a nostalgia trip for the oldheads

[Toaster Simulator]

Happy birthday to me again! Sometimes, simplicity really does work out! It was great to have an easy game. Well, not one that you can easily win. I mean, it definitely takes awhile. My toast usually moves better than that.

I don't think I have a toaster anyway. This reminds me of a fake game I heard called "Wii Breakfast". I make breakfast every day! I rarely use toast, though. I could appreciate how original it was.

Ant responds:

Yeah it was just a random idea my friend had (MrRope) during school. So I made it into a game with uraomote, I'm glad you enjoyed!

[Tower of Towers]

Well, this was certainly playable, but I had problems with jumping fast. It seems like I couldn't really go anywhere with this. I couldn't jump that far without dying. I'll always appreciate the graphics. They're quite well detailed for a game like this. You don't see a lot of games with squirrels.

No, no problems with any bugs. It's just hard on the first level with jumping under the purple blocks. Those spikes always get me. I get a medal for dying! Weird how that's a secret medal.

Spebby responds:

It probably shouldn't be a secret medal lol. Only set it like that to not encourage people to die, but tbh it's probably best to have it not hidden.
