BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ultimate Pie Theft]

The nice and bright visuals make it easy to understand what's going on, and the characters' voicelines add a bit of Weebl charm.

As a Pac-Man clone, its pretty fine. Be warned, though - the ghosts' erratic movement makes this a fair bit tougher than your standard maze game, even if the power pellets provide a speed boost.

[• Dread Chess ✣]

Dark and atmospheric as hell, with a damn good twist on an age-old tabletop game.

[Dino Run]

A dynamic and fantastic Jurassic Flash classic, with secrets aplenty and excellent execution of the elementary.

I remembered having a blast playing this in my school days -
its wonderful to see how its beauty refuses to fade.

The stripped-back soundtrack and lo-fi digital visuals really helped this age gracefully
This aged like fine wine, I claim I can make shamelessly.

(Rhymes aside, real nice work on that guitar soundtrack - its got a primal vibe I quite like)

[Soviet Rocket Giraffe]

This one's less a slow-burn and more a quick-stun,
a blast of skill-based, fast-paced frantic fun.
You aced this, Cooney - very well done.

[Chuck the Sheep]

Simple, straightforward, and fun as hell, with an adorable artstyle courtesy of Jimp.
The woodwind BGM was a treat to the wars, too.

[Field Trip]

Took me a while to recognise I was controlling the vaguely sparkling swarm, and not the bird, but I still got the hang of this pretty quickly.

Simple, quick bit of fun, good to kill a few minutes.

[Void Call]

Short, sweet, and a lotta silly fun, with solid humour throughout.
The totally-not-a-vampire was the real highlight - that man had determination, I'll give him that.

[Shut Up And Fulp]

I gotta say, this hits a lot different these days.
Sure, it might've felt like Newgrounds was the little guy fighting against big bad Kongregate back when this released, but that stopped being the case in 2020 - whilst Newgrounds saw Friday Night Funkin' put the site on its first steps towards a full-fledged renaissance, Kongregate was rendered irrelevant through a one-two punch of game uploads being disabled and the forums shutting down.

Pretty nice play, even if the gameplay's shallow and somewhat frustrating. Ending boss fight was pretty fun, even if it boiled down to a couple QTEs.
Protip: Press UP to go through doorways. This isn't mentioned in-game - don't ask me why.

Also that ending song was hilariously good

[Epic Quest]

Well, this wasn't particularly much - just a quick slideshow and a real short interactive section with a pretty unintuitive control scheme.

The 3D was pretty impressive for its time, and the easy medals are nice, but that isn't enough to save this for me.

[Return to Riddle School]

A very damn good tribute to a classic series, and a finely done remake of the original. Music slaps, too.
