Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Type Help]

I have to admit that I was never a fan of typing games. There wasn't much interactivity. I couldn't get very far. I don't even know how you're supposed to advance. This was definitely something different from BoMToons. You can always try new things.

Congratulations on appearing in the Flash Forward Jam! Man, as if 2020 couldn't have gotten more depressing! I guess there's at least some unique things. I don't know what the point of the typing screen on the bottom is. It does look nice.

BoMToons responds:

Text adventures aren't everyone's cup o' tea, but this one has some twists if you get very far!

The keyboard is for mobile players since Ruffle lets flash be served on mobile devices!

[SNEK: The Game]

This was a pretty good game. I admit to never being a fan of the "Snake" games. They just seemed kind of too bland. I appreciate the little homage. People who do like these games should enjoy this. I like the name.

It gets fast really well, fast. I mean, that happens in most games, but this seemed more so than usual. I like a challenge. I assume I'm not supposed to touch those other things. Maybe could have used music.

Aprime responds:

Music would be distracting, but I guess I could have given the option for it.
I probably does get fast too quickly, maybe my formula could have done with some tweaking :D

[Chessformer]

Wow, I thought I'd suck at this. I still kinda did. At least I got to Level 4! I have really no understanding of chess at all! I appreciate how simple it is. Well, it's still a pretty hard game.

The music's nice. I just can't get past Level 4. I'm sure I can look it up. That does take away from the excitement. I suppose chess fans will like it more.

Rob1221 responds:

Level 4 introduces stacking, where a piece falls on top of another. The rook can't get to the right side without using the king as a platform.

[NG BBS Awards 2020]

Oh um, 32 votes? Not a whole lot. I still enjoyed this. I always want to find out stuff like this. The layout just wasn't that good. Happy New Year at least!

Any new year would be happy for 2020. I guess I was hoping I'd appear here somewhere. You know, most reviews written maybe? I'm pretty sure if I did, I'd get an e-mail for that. Yeah, ,I remember going to the BBS.

Little-Radiodemon responds:

I mean, 32 votes is better than the 19 last year, hopefully it will be more for the 2021 awards!

[Ordeals of December]

I thought this was pretty good. The best part was easily the animation or uh, graphics. It looked quite simplistic. This will be a very interesting year for Santa. I doubt everyone will be celebrating it this year. The music's nice.

It is hard to get into into. I just want more going on. Still pretty interesting. It's a quaint little game. Wow, we don't even have a Christmas 2020 collection this year!

TwoPigs responds:

Thank you for playing!! Really glad that you enjoyed it :D! Merry Christmas :)

[Save Wegra from Drowning]

Gadget? This was a point and click adventure. It was way too simple. I can at least appreciate the easy medals. I do that too often. You need to work with animation much better.

Well, whatever it is you make games with. I don't know about them, so I can't help you. It was just too slow. That suicide bit was really dark. Well, she's old anyway.

Little-Radiodemon responds:

Wow dude, I AM NO OLD JUST EXPERIENCED!!

[Squid! Escape! Fight!]

This got better as it went along. I will admit that it seemed pretty boring at first. It was just too easy. There were a lot more interesting obstacles as it went on. I wasn't expecting it to be so complicated. Whatever, it was fun with the intention.

I like the graphics. They're kind of too simple, but they fit the game. It is a fairly unique one. I kept thinking it said I should press "O" instead of "Z". Hey, Oz!

Omael responds:

Thanks Ericho, I'm glad you find it enjoyable, this game was thought as an educational aid for kids so the first levels needed to be utterly easy just to engage them.

And you are right about Z, i forgot about making the change, i migrated this and it's still playable with a gamepad.

[Disc Us]

Well, that game was rather odd. I didn't know how to play at first. It's definitely an interesting game. You know why? It's the only "Among Us" game I've played so far! Put it in the collection!

Makes sense, seeing as how it was based on a game! Well, we're more into flashes here. Great to know something like you is still around. I'm so glad we find more variety with these guys. This is gonna be bigger than Mario here!

keybol responds:

Glad you like it. I'll be making more games it makes me happy

[TOM FULP DRESSUP]

Dressup games? I haven't seen those in a long time. This was still worthy of giving a good score. I'm kind of glad you can't review his underwear. It's just a very cute little game. I was hoping there'd be some action.

It's still pretty nice. I really am impressed by a dressup game winning Daily Feature. That rarely happens at all! I like the cute little expressions especially. The backgrounds are okay too.

MKMaffo responds:

Hehehe thanks man! I think itd be neat next time to learn how to code more complex interactions or maybe something that will trigger a video clip? Who knows!!

[Puzzle Crafter]

It was definitely creative, but there was a big problem. There were two few levels in Adventure Mode! It was still quite fun. I'm not that much into creating levels. It's too much work. I do like the music.

I hope more levels will be added. How come you can't play levels other people made? I know that will come eventually. It just seems too new. Don't worry, I could figure out some medals even though they were all secret.

larrynachos responds:

Yeah, I'm still working on more adventure mode levels. You can play other levels people make if they submit it through the form on the main menu. Right now there's only one community level made by my friend Black Kiwi.

Thanks for the review!
