Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Chaos Eclipse II]

Are you the same person as 08jackt? Yeah, I guess you just changed your name. I feel bad for not being more familiar with you. This wasn't as good as a lot of your other stuff. It need to have more style. You should have made interesting minigames.

I still like the artwork. I don't recall the first entry. You've made so many it's hard to keep up. The music is quite nice and has a lot of variety. Yeah, I'm glad I played this.

JackAstral responds:

Yes I am!

Don't feel bad - it's a story game so it's very niche. If the story doesn interest you, don't force yourself to play it lol

[Stick Figure Suicide]

I was quite impressed by this game! It was mostly because of how many suicides there were. Yeah, it's morbid, but this is great fun. I think my favorite would be the second car death. It was weird to have two of them labeled as cliffs. I mean, almost all of them involve the cliff!

You show off great animation and colors here. These guys have big brains. I like those sounds, even if they were stock. They were just suiting. I'm glad this got these accolades.

Ringfinger responds:

haha well, i was only 14 going on 15 when i made that game, and not the best in english at the time. but the game did pretty good none the less! cheers for the review man.

[Get Witchy]

Happy Halloween! I am very glad to be reviewing stuff like this. My favorite part was the first two easy medals. Hee hee. I will however admit that I didn't understand how to really get that far. I always got to the edge of the screen.

I know I can do better. I'm just not motivated enough to do so. It's great to see something original here, I guess. The graphics are quite good. It just wasn't that enjoyable.

austineast responds:

Happy Halloween and thanks for the review! And yes, it may be simple, but it's definitely not the easiest game to get the hang of.

[Quarrel Hill]

I was really impressed at how enjoyable this game was! It got so addictive after awhile. It's mostly because I'm fairly good at it. You just have to keep on clicking over and over. Any fast typist like me can do that! It does make me wonder how people get the last medal. I guess they're just more talented than me.

I admit that the animation isn't that good. I don't care, because it's so much fun! The sounds are great too. Yeah, I'm biased because of the medals. It should still be fun for most people.

Domo76 responds:

Oh, thank you so much for your honest review and excellent game rating! I hope to do the next game better and I am thankful you did not go too harsh with the rating even though game has some weak spots that you correctly pointed out.

The game keeps score on how many people you pushed, so you can just keep on playing and you'll get more than 1,000 pushed. If you mean the "finish game on hard" medal, then I suggest to play on a laptop and keep pressing with both hands - one on your mouse, and the other on touchpad button. Then it is easy. Thanks again for playing!!

[Rearmed Trials]

Why are you listed as the only one here with a high score? Anyway, this was a really cool game, but it had one flaw. You couldn't jump! You would have had more mobility that way! The animation was still great. It's great how you listed your beta testers.

The sounds all sync up well. I assume the game just goes on forever. Then again, I didn't get that far. Xbox? You can actually play this game with Xbox?!

D-SuN responds:

You can play this with an xbox controller connected to your PC. I have a usb xbox one gamepad, its much more fun than keyboard.

To be clear, this game is not on the Xbox.... yet.. :)

[Creepy Room Escape]

I must be doing something wrong, because it isn't working. I looked at the walkthrough. I'm going to the part with the piano. I believe I see the keys as AGFE that I need to press, in that order. It's still not working. I feel bad because it's been so long since I've played the piano.

I've forgotten most of it! I don't even have a piano anymore! At least I knew enough to get one medal. This is mostly as good as your other games. Well, I got something at least.

selfdefiant responds:

There are actually a lot more notes to play. I don't play either, don't feel bad. :)

[Green Arrow and the Green Cursor]

I liked it, but it did get pretty weird. I didn't understand how I was supposed to collect the coins. I couldn't do anything to get near them. I guess it was just automatic. I still appreciated the goofy characters in this. It was nice to see all these guys together.

I was able to recognize almost all of them. The animation is quite nice. I liked how creative it was. I always lost my arrows at the exact time I was supposed to be getting new ones! The medals didn't seem to show up.

Munguia responds:

Thanks for your review, you need to win the level to unlock medals, and yes you get the coins automatically when they leave the screen, or you can hoover the Green Cursor over them.

[51.2]

Wow, that was a really weird game. I was kind of turned off by how strange the gameplay was. It was difficult to understand. At least I got to the third level. The music's just fine. I guess it probably could have been more detailed.

I didn't really know how to get past everything. A lot of it was mostly a gamble. It's still pretty creative. It just isn't something understandable enough for me. It's a pretty interesting setup.

StuffedWombat responds:

sorry!

I did not have a lot of time to create the tutorials.
should have explained a lot of stuff a lot better.

just a quick summary of the gameplay:
mouse:
your coursor is a physical object that cant go through walls, pressing the left mouse button teleports your little box to the current place of the cursor.

was/arrow keys:
by pressing w you split your character in two independant characters, controlled by wad and arrow keys. when they both stand still in the same place they merge back into one character (controlled by arrow keys).

[Arise 2]

That's odd. The medal I got for the 200 meters isn't showing up. I doubt you can ever win this game. I had no idea it would be this complicated. I mean, most of these obstacles look completely harmless! It's just a bunch of blocks.

I was still fascinated by the design. I even like the little bird guy here. It was hard to tell what was a hazard. Most of the time, I just stayed on one side. I was probably just lucky those times.

Mantis1 responds:

Newgrounds.io doesn't come with a visual notification when you receive a medal like the old API. But you actually have received that 200 meters medal, I can see it on your userpage.

Yeah, you are playing the game properly by staying on one side, don't worry about that. :)

[Sons of Guns]

This game seemed like it had potential. I just found it to be too annoying. I guess it is a pretty interesting concept. I like slowly learning it. It just takes too long for my allies to respond. The sounds the enemies make are pretty nice.

I think the environment is good. It's just too much of a slow moving game. The graphics aren't too bad. It just needs to go faster. It was hard to even understand how my guys were dying.

grmaster responds:

Maybe we'll increase a starting speed in a new build.

Thanks for feedbacks. We welcome your suggestions and ideas.
