BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[NG BBS Awards 2024]

Simple, straightforward, and real damn enjoyable. Liked the pseudo-symbolism you used for the results (e.g. Worst Poster being a D.Va statue (clever bit of self-deprecation there :P), and Never Logs Off being the monitor), and the cleverly hidden secrets.

[Kart Kollab]

A very cool kart-based collab, with a whole lotta solid karts by a whole lotta solid artists.
Bonus points for the excellent choice of music, and the darkly hilarious option that ruins everyone's day.

[CH9: Cyber Devil]

Simple, straightforward, bloody good fun from start to finish, and a pretty good way to cap off the Cyber Hell series.

Damian's small hitbox is a pretty major double-edged sword - whilst it makes dodging bullets relatively straightforward, it makes absorbing them a lot iffier. This is especially apparent against that bat and its spray of seriously small squares.
Absorbing red bullets is also tougher than it should, given they blend in with Red Damian's suit.

Personally, hard mode felt easier than regular to me - sure, you lose access to the Ikaruga-style bullet absorption and its associated beam attack, but you also completely sidestep that mechanic's more awkward parts.

Cyberdevil did a pretty good job putting a face to the Cyber Devil.

[FEARMONGER]

In a better world, a game like this wouldn't be necessary. We do not live in a better world.

[Quickdraw (Censored)]

A neat little oddity in your games catalogue - no clue which "certain website" you're referring to in the description, but it probably shut down a while ago.

Like the original Quickdraw, this one's long-since been superceded by GUN.5.

[Quickdraw: Cyber Hell]

This is more-or-less superceded by the Collection, but fuck it, I'm giving a review anyways:

Simple, bloody good Robot Day fun. Not sure if this is placebo, but I felt this standalone version feels easier than the one in the Collection. The only foes which gave me any trouble are the boss-bots, and those ones are out-and-out cheating, as the game freely admits.

(EDIT: The background's working correctly in Ruffle - feel free to enable it.)

[Download RAM Idle 2]

This is an idle game with a lot of layers, and one which wears its Antimatter Dimensions inspirations on its sleeve. Nicely made.

[Cold]

A dead simple art game which makes some pretty clever use of button-mashing to drive home its point.

[Madness Combat: 1982]

Simple, straightforward, arcadey Madness fun, and a solid showcase of your skills with the C64.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

[Pablo Post-It's Journey Home]

A simple, but fun little platformer, with a nice visual style and a pretty fun central mechanic.
