BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[3D Frogger]

Whilst the 3D effects are pretty cool, especially for its time, the choice of perspective seriously works against it - you've got basically zero depth perception, making it real damn hard to gauge where hazards are.

[Red & Black]

A set of six cool little timewasters, offering some nice variety.
Blob Ball was the main highlight IMO - bobbing and weaving through enemies never gets old.

Despite having the same colour palette as the Virtual Boy, the visuals were shockingly pleasing on the eyes.

[Blockslide!]

A simple, but pretty fun block puzzler. There's an odd sorta charm to the title screen visuals - can't quite put my finger on why.

[Spot the KitKat Chunky]

A quick-and-dirty six-second shitpost - the "game" itself is trivial to win, but you'll still get a good laugh at the punchline.

[Final Defense]

I remembered having a fair bit of fun playing this as a kid, and I'd say this sorta holds up.

The base gameplay's pretty fun, especially with the ability to block incoming damage with your shield, but the lack of info on your HUD and the lack of enemy variety drag this down pretty hard.

The turret(s) being offset from the centre did throw off my aim at first, but I adapted pretty quickly.

[NeonBlock]

A fun roguelike twist on Tetris, with plenty of replay value.

[Twigi's Twisted Costumes]

This was a whole lotta fun to go through, with so many cool outfits and so many hilariously silly voicelines. The Twist button was a fun nod to the jam's overall idea, too!

Only major criticisms I have are the long load times when starting the game, and the clothes being a bit finicky - seems the code for determining if clothes are on Twigi (and, by extension, whether or not to move them when scrolling) may be a bit fragile.

[Wall Street Massacre]

A nice, fat slice of then-contemporary post-crash catharsis, loaded with '00s-era grit and headed by a stick figure with the voice of a pissed-off Christian Bale.

Its a damn good snapshot of the boiling rage people felt in the wake of the subprime mortgage crisis, with Bernie Madoff serving quite well as a walking symbol of Wall Street greed.

[The Color Game]

Stroop Effect: The Game

A dead simple idea, executed well, leading to some good-old arcadey fun.

Aprime responds:

Perfect!

[THE COLOUR GAME]

Stroop Effect: The Game

A dead simple idea, executed well, leading to some good-old arcadey fun.

This doesn't have much added compared to its original version (https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/310897) - just medals, highscores and a visual upgrade, but with a core idea this solid, that's all the game really needed.

Aprime responds:

I'll add more to it next time
