Review: Colors! 3D is absolutely brilliant

Review: Colors! 3D is absolutely brilliant
Pin It

Rock solid, friendly and intelligently designed, Colors! 3D arrived on eShop today, coupling a wonderful art studio with a fun online gallery for sharing your creations with the world.

From its clear, helpful tutorial to the smart use of the 3DS interface, painting with Colors! 3D is a joy. All the basic tools you’d expect in a mobile paint program are in place, and very easy to access and modify. 3D comes into play in the form of five layers which can be switched back and forth, copied and made invisible at will. Even novices can easily create a background sky, a central plane main subject, and a top plane foreground element for instant depth. 3D art tools have never before been so smartly and intuitively presented.

Kid Icarus: Uprising review: Is it bad if the boxart is my favorite part of the game?

Kid Icarus: Uprising review: Is it bad if the boxart is my favorite part of the game?

The boxart is perhaps still my favorite part of the game.

Kid Icarus: Uprising has had many Infendo contributors, myself included, wondering if the game was going to have some serious problems when it finally released. Since then, it has, and let’s just it has never been more fantastic to be proven wrong. Project Sora has with their first project already proven that they are a top tier developer, making the wait for Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS all the more unbearable.

Review: Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! Isn’t! Isn’t!

Review: Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! Isn't! Isn't!

I love Minigolf, and I love my 3DS, so I had some cautious hope that Shin’en’s Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! might be a decent way to spend $4.99. Unfortunately, this game breaks the months-long streak of outstanding original 3DS eShop games. Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! isn’t a disaster, it’s just…meh. Meh.

It’s got a sharp presentation, with clean 3D graphics, pleasant music, and a nice sense of actually being on a well-landscaped minigolf course. The two character models are well done, and you have an option (unlockable) to use your Mii’s head…which, unfortunately, ends up looking like a freaky mask on a body that isn’t at all the right proportions for it. You can alter the style and color of your player’s clothes, which turns out to be the most fun! fun! activity in the entire game.

The play mechanics are fine, allowing you to either use the touch screen or buttons to aim, then try for the correct power and accuracy on your shot. All the ingredients are in place for a solid game…but…
