Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

['DinoMelt']

I wish this game would have showed the boss' health. I was annoyed by how long it was. Is it all just one level? I'm impressed by the score as I don't think it's that good. I do have to reload the page. That can get annoying.

The music is very nice. It's very easy to understand this game. I adore how you get your health replenished every time at a checkpoint. I can tell you made 'DUCKS!'. You have a very distinct style.

Butzbo responds:

Having a health bar on the bosses was one of the many things I juggled through design, at the end I decided not to show it to focus the experience on the player observing the bosses, since they do have different phases and progression, maybe it's not that evident and it's something I could address for further versions.
Thanks a lot for the review!

[Own Goal Soccer]

I admit that I'm not good at this, but it was still quite fun. This reminds me of foosball. That's what this game is also called, right? I didn't know what this had to do with the number three. There's only two teams! I also did like soccer.

The graphics are fine enough. I guess I'm not good at sports. I like how this game often plays itself. You still have to move everyone around though. I'm surprised there aren't more plays.

Thx~ Own Goal Players = the 3rd party on field~

[Magnetic Affair]

Well, that was rather strange. I can't deny that we've gotten some interesting games here. I wish I knew more about magnetism. Eh, that probably wouldn't help. I like how unique it is. It just isn't well detailed.

Okay, it doesn't need to be. It really isn't my thing. I'm not really into puzzle games. Maybe I"m just dumb. I'd need a walkthrough.

netcell responds:

I only have around 3 to 4 days to make this game so it is really not well detailed.

It's not about your intelligence, puzzle game is more about experience in similar games.
If you really like this one and need help in some stages, you can pm me :)

Have fun :)

['DUCKS!']

Wow, I was quite impressed at how hard this game was. I really lost it at the third level. There were just so many specific things to do. I always give someone credit for a challenging game. Am I just becoming dumber? I was pretty bad at this.

I loved the goofy graphics. I'm glad this is ranked as the best for this Construct. These games certainly look interesting so far. The music is great too. It's very stylistic.

Butzbo responds:

Oh that's, right, now that it's been played much more, level 3 turned out to be a lot more complex than what I originally intended!, I guess it did came with too many new clustered elements; that's one thing to keep in mind if I do an expansion.
Thanks for playing! :)

[Zombie Defence XT]

It was easy to understand, but that was the main problem. It was too easy to understand. That and the graphics weren't good at all. It was still nice for a really quick play. I don't know why there's rabbits there. Isn't that something more for Easter?

It reminds me of that Easter Rampage game. That was a lot better. You really needed better designs. At least it was kind of different. That wasn't enough to save it.

The-EXP responds:

I actually made a sequel to this game :p http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/545958

[Goose Game]

When I first came across this game, it looked really boring. I know realize it's tons of fun! Granted, it's probably because I'm more used to playing this kind of game. Was it based on the board game "Sorry"? I've played that one many times before. This was just like it.

I was annoyed when the enemy looked like he won. Instead, I did! I didn't even notice that! There really are a lot of fine details in this game. I wish it was popular.

freeworldgroup responds:

its based on a game that came about in the 1600s I think - one of the earliest known board games :)

[Phantom Reverse #1]

I remember this episode of "The Amazing World Of Gumball" that was a parody of RPGS. Gumball named his character "Mybutt". Guess what I did here? Sorry, I just had to see the words, "Mybutt, wait!" in this game. Seriously, this is very good. The animation is superb.

It really is a very realistic game. I love the music. It's so soothing. It's pretty easy to understand too. I'm going to go out on a limb and say the secret medal is for beating it.

JackAstral responds:

Thanks!

[Incident PD2017]

Well, that was odd. It was just a boss game. I just shot the same people over and over. Well, the same clocks I guess. At least the first couple of people were easy. I wish these guys had health bars.

It was just too hard to tell when you were going to beat them. Still, I really do appreciate the music. The animation is pretty unique. At least you get to play as Hank. I just wanted more enemies, but Happy Pico Day 2017!

Spawd responds:

Thank you.
They did have health bars though.

[Sucker Munch]

I guess I can appreciate how the game is rather easy. Well, how it's easy to understand. It seemed like you could just stay in the same place the whole game. That changed when they could fire stuff at you. Dang, am I lazy. The music is very nice.

I doubt this is scientifically accurate. It still has nice detail put into it. You rarely see sprite stuff. It actually is unique for its sprite work. The title's actually pretty funny.

VeryEvilTomato responds:

Thanks so much for the sprite work appreciation :) I'm glad you enjoyed the game, you're the first to say the game is easy, a lot of people struggle after wave 15.

[Devoured Intellect]

I admit to being very confused by this. I guess it's hard to look at an RPG made in such a short time. I mean, it made little sense. Have the designs of the medals changed? Anyway, this is just weird. I guess the drawings are good.

It just did little for me. Congrats on being the most popular game for this Ludum Dare. Well, last time I checked at least. I liked the variety of music. I guess people more into these kinds of games will like it more.

BoobMarley responds:

Wrong. Game made 100% perfect sense and is 100% perfect in every way.
Thank you for playing and for writing a pretty good, sober review.
