Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Planets Gone Rogue!]

This is one of the most massive games I've ever played! It's hard to even describe it! I think the best way would simply be to say it's hard t et the big picture. You certainly did create a big picture with this. I like the notion of using entire planets as weapons. It reminds me of Tengen Toppa Gureen Lagann.

It especially reminds me with the Moon thing. The sound effects are quite good. I found it to be a unique game. It was still really hard and took a long time to play. I wouldn't quite recommend it.

OMBG responds:

Thanks for playing and the good rating! It honors me that you think this way about my game. I just don't understand why you say you wouldn't recommend it since your review seems quite positive for me? Or was that a typo? Either way, thanks again for playing and for the feedback!

[Samantha Wins]

Wow, here's another really weird game. I guess I just expect that on Halloween. I couldn't quite get the point. Well, at least it was unique. I looked liked some kind of alien. I understand how I didn't even recognize myself.

The sounds are quite well done. I'm glad I at least got the medal of losing. It was a bit hard to understand all the controls at first. I like the cat. I had a good Halloween.

SilverStitch responds:

You shouldn't recognise yourself, you don't have an identity unless you find and create one for yourself. None-the-less, I am glad that you gave the game a fair shot and that you had a good Halloween! :)

[Ghost Light Complete]

Wow, this is one complicated game. I really was amazed at how massive it was. There were just tons of things going on in this. I at least managed to get past the first part of the first level. Was I supposed to get a medal for that? You certainly made a game appropriate for Halloween.

It was just hard for me to follow! There were so many little details here and there. The music was fantastic, though! I'm glad to have come by this. Happy Halloween, dude!

Comacolors responds:

Thank you kindly for the feedback, I'm really glad you enjoyed what you played.

Sorry the game is laid out is such an awkward way, I couldn't think of any other way to put all the parts together while making it easy for people to skip the parts they'd already played.

I definitely made some mistakes with this one, I'll do my best to make my future games a lot less obtuse.

Thanks again for the review, and I hope you had an awesome Halloween :)

[Smash From Beyond]

Well, this is certainly a challenging game. It's a pity that there is so much stuff to review that I don't have time to win a medal. I was amazed at how fast paced this was. The highest I ever got was 22. It was great to have a good old fashioned Halloween game here! The designs were certainly nice.

I was expecting more of an interactive experience. I'm just not that good at this game. I find you just have to briefly inspect them all. A pity it takes awhile to even do that. It's times like these that I wish there was a medal for not skipping the cutscene.

Evil-Dog responds:

lol a short game for a short fun uh?

[Idle Evolution]

I'm sorry to say that I did not understand this. I tried to get into it, but I couldn't figure it out. I just clicked around stuff, but nothing really happened. It didn't seem like there was much action. I got to the first level at least! Was this supposed to be a defense game?

I love how you mention both God and evolution. It at least has an elaborate design. It seems too complicated. Well, other people seem to enjoy it. Daily 5th Place ain't that bad.

NewProject responds:

What is an idle game? I know the 1st time it's hard to understand the concept. You don't have to kill or solve anything, only produce and increase to produce more.

[The Awakening RPG]

Well, I thought this game has a good layout, but I'm pretty bad at it. It's mostly because I'm getting to the fight with Argas and losing badly. It's still a good RPG. I was really impressed at how huge it was. Even out of the forest, I couldn't get a medal! The artwork could have been a bit better, though.

For the most part, the game is pretty fair to you. It's just so massive. I'm glad I managed to get as far as I did at least. I would recommend this, even though I'm not usually into RPG's. I think they're a bit too complicated.

RockLou responds:

Okay, thanks! How are you losing against Argas though? He's not even supposed to be able to kill you or anything.
Unfortunately, I keep having problems with the medals. Hopefully they willl get fixed soon.

[Land of Enki 2]

I thought this game wasn't bad. I wouldn't quite recommend it, though. It didn't really have anything out of the usual. It's still pretty good. I think the graphics and gameplay are just okay. The best part is probably how the enemies are designed.

They really are done well! The music is pretty nice too. I do think it's a bit too big. It seems like a game that large would have better design. It still isn't bad.

TheEnkian responds:

Yeah, that's fair enough. The art style of it is quite simple in places and the game isn't too difficult to get through.

[QUAD::]

Wow, you deserve props for making something like this. A pity it really is too complicated to figure out. It took me awhile to understand that I was the white box running around. I'm glad to have a game with such unique design. Unfortunately, I'm not that good at it. It's too hard to even get a medal.

I appreciate how good the music is. I would definitely recommend this. I don't even know HOW to get a medal. While a frustrating game, still one worth looking at. I appreciate that.

TerribleDesign responds:

Yay, someone liked the graphics! :)
How would you make the game more approachable? I tend to have difficulty with easy difficulty curves. So I thought that having multiple solutions to one puzzle that allowed for branching paths per screen would be a good idea. It is just as difficult as ever, but non linear!

The way I approached the game was with "action paths" that focus on avoid red squares and "puzzle paths" that take you though some crazy mazes! I also mix the two at times. I don't know if having that insight will really help you though.

Please support the music artists by checking the Bandcamp links in the description. Most albums are pay-what-you-want and that includes free! So be sure to check out the full tracks!

[Naut Land]

Well, I guess I can't say I would recommend this. It seemed weird to have a game with goombas where you couldn't kill them. Jumping on them just seems like the standard thing. I did at least think that this game was done pretty well. I think it's at least creative.

I'm glad that there was a lot of good music. I could understand how you didn't have to go all the way around with the large goomba. I don't think there's even a way to get past that guy. It was easy to understand how to get the medals. While not great, it wasn't bad.

JackAstral responds:

Thanks for playing and leaving a review anyway :)

[Sneaky Explorer City 4]

I am sorry, but I could not really get anywhere with this. It was basically just these two areas. I wasn't able to get ahead at all. I think you actually made it a bit too difficult. I would liked it if you didn't have to specifically touch certain areas to get ahead. I think the graphics could be better too.

The music isn't bad, though. This just doesn't seem like anything particularly special. While not a fan of point and click adventure games, I have played better ones. You need some more detail. I would have forgotten the other games by now.

selfdefiant responds:

You know, well, I know you don't like these so it really doesn't make much sense to make so many complaints. For one, this is the 4th part. If you haven't played the other 3, you won't get this one. I know you think the graphics could be better, why don't you just say they could be worse? We have gone over this several times. I am so amazed that you play my games when you know you won't like it. I don't like dress up games, so when a super cool one comes out, I'm not going to go play and review it. It wouldn't be fair since, I don't like them and don't know if one is better than the next. Also the graphics of any game could be better. Some are so bad it's scary. Who cares, some art is better than other art and some art isn't like by everyone. :)
