BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Undercover Bear]

A simple bitesized bit of bear-based comedy, expertly executed and deftly drawn.

The dry and witty dialogue pairs very nicely with the sheer absurdity of its central premise.

[Uncle Sam vs WikiLeaks]

Gameplay's pretty shallow, and the WikiLeaks servers are frustratingly random with how they spill their secrets, but people didn't come to this for the gameplay, they came to this to take the piss out of Uncle Sam's bullshit.

Nice little playable political cartoon.

[Wastelander]

The controls were a bit confusing at first (playing this on keyboard probably didn't help), but I quickly got the hang of it.
Gotta say, this is pretty fun - the visuals have a strong low-poly charm, and the music's a pretty strong bop.

[The Gay Test]

Instructions unclear, came out as bisexual
Neat little meme game - not much to it, but it still put a smile on my face.

[Tankmas ADVENTure 2022]

A damn good Tankmas ADVENTure - minor shame that Yule Duel's broken in this, but at least there's a standalone version (which I've earned all three medals in :P).

BrandyBuizel responds:

We've fixed the medals so now when you play the external Yule Duel game you can retroactively unlock the medals in the 2022 advent just by opening the game once :)

[Yule Duel]

Came here from Tankmas 2022, since that game's Yule Duel isn't working.

A pretty damn fun card game from start to finish. Didn't feel there was much depth for most of my playthrough, but when Santa broke out The Boss, I remembered the rule about 1's beating A's and used it to turn his own card against him. I felt like a goddamn genius after that.

(Protip: Secularism is shockingly strong against Santa.)

Albe responds:

Hi! Tankmas 2022 has now been updated so when you unlock medals in this standalone version of Yule Duel you will also unlock the same medals in Tankmas 2022 just by logging in. Thank you for playing!

[Canabalt]

The enless runner that spawned an entire genre - between the beautiful minimalist visuals, an excellent electronic soundtrack and simple-but-fun gameplay, its easy to see why.

This got into the Museum of Modern Art for a damn good reason.

[The ninja_muffin99 Twitter.com experience 2018]

Went in expecting a NInjamuffin Classic Shitpost(tm), got an emotional gutpunch and a mild existential crisis

7/10, would question my life decisions again

[Cupcake Empire 2]

A basic idle game, which gets old pretty quickly. Good to kill a few minutes, or to grab some easy medals, but not much else. Progress generally feels slow all around, and the tax mechanic is a minor PITA.
