Summary

Playing more like a 3D Splatformer, Demon Turf Neon Splash is a no-nonsense balls-to-the-wall platformer with a huge emphasis on speedrunning amd generally going fast. It’s less of a story game and more of a fun “imma mess you up” platforming game designed to seriously stress you out. It controls and looks the same as the previous game so returning players will be at home, new players may need some time adjusting to it. I found the game good fun at times but so frustrating I would rage quit constantly. The thing is I don’t mind a challenge but the rewards doled out never made it feel like the pain was worth it, again this is because I can only take so much and blame others for my pathetic gaming skills before I call it a day. I liked the way you leave a neon splash of paint as you move around but again I never really saw the point. Speedrunner wannabes and people who love to punish themselves should play this game.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
