BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Slime 3K Demake]

You did a damn good job squeezing a twin-stick shooter onto an original Game Boy. Impressive demake.

ArcadeHero responds:

Not really an original GB game, it's more GB-like :) Thank you so much!

[Voter Smash V1.0]

A basic, but pretty fun interactive movie - kicking that nerdy-looking blammer's shit in doesn't get old, and the triumphant "Gonna Fly Now" makes beating his ass all the more cathartic.

[Torture Bill Gates]

A crudely-drawn and, in my opinion, rather unimpressive interactive movie - it got repetitive hearing the exact same scream used in multiple kill options.

The main highlight was the frying pan - the buildup to the kill was pretty good, and I burst out laughing at the sight of Bill Gates' cartoonishly flattened face.

The BGM's a nice and jaunty old-timey loop, though it gets repetitive pretty quickly thanks to its short length.

[-Red-]

A dead simple idea, executed to perfection. Redirecting multiple meteors with a single burst of fire feels awesome to pull off, and the highly dynamic physics-based gameplay will keep you coming back for more.

The mysterious-feeling and chillingly good choice of BGM, plus the dark, almost apocalyptic colour scheme go shockingly well with the gameplay - makes it feel like you're protecting yourself from the end of the world.

[Pinball Fantasy]

Awkward-feeling flippers and off-feeling ball physics drag this basic pinball experience down massively.

The playfield's pretty dull as well, with naught but a bunch of basic-looking pop bumpers to go for.

[Quick Pic]

Its not particularly original (its essentially just Memory with a time limit), but this was a pretty fun test of my memory and concentration.

Played a single game and got a score of 24750, reaching level 8.

[Roxas Dress-up Game v1.0]

Visuals are alright (they definitely give off a Y2K vibe, even if Roxas's face is a bit wonky) but the selection here's seriously damn limited - most of the options are just recolours of the same piece of clothing.

The Keyblade selection is particularly lacking - you've only got the Kingdom Key and Ultima Weapon to play with. The visual effect for swapping them's pretty cool, but that's about it.

[Skincraft]

If you wanna make a cool Minecraft skin, share a cool Minecraft skin, or find a cool Minecraft skin, this is the gadget for you.

If you're just starting out with skinmaking, the presets are quite the help.

[Munch Time!]

Pretty simple, but kinda fun. Sorta reminds me of Kaboom! for the 2600.
Definitely a harder game than Kaboom, though - you let even a single cookie slip past the guy's head, its an immediate game over.
The simple visuals have a distinct charm, which the BGM helps enhance.

[Target Shooting XTRA]

The visual upgrade's a nice touch, and the extra medals are pretty cool, but its still the same mediocre shooting gallery at its core.

The game-breaking bug I mentioned in my original Target Shooting review is still here, too - you get an autoclicker and put your cursor in just the right place, you can rack up some *absurd* scores just by shooting a single target over and over again.

The score medals' general finickiness does mitigate this, however slightly - seems you have to let the animation finish (and let the target move somewhere else) at the relevant score to get your medal.
