Blue's Journey is an action-platformer that was ported to the Neo Geo CD in 1994.
+ Offers tactical gameplay by including shops where you can buy items to help you along your journey.
+ The graphics are bright and colourful, and there's some nice examples of parallax scrolling to add scenic depth.
- The ability to shrink down in size is underdeveloped and has little bearing on making your way through each level.
- The controls are extremely slippery which results in overshooting your intended target with alarming frequency.
- Level design is mundane and many of the sections feel like objects are randomly placed rather than cleverly implemented.
- Enemy placement is annoying and foes are always ready to pounce just off-screen to ruin your day.
