I have to admit that I have never been a fan of Nader games, but after Krypton and Neon 3, it's hard to not be a fan.
Neon 3 is a very lengthy game with many gimmicks involved, and each stage having his own theme/gimmick. I personally enjoyed every stage even if there are some I'm less a fan than others. I won't go into details, just know that everything is well crafted and I really hope Nader will continue to make that kind of games.
I don't really understand the end, I guess it's a kind of joke for his community which I'm not a part of, but I don't really like it, I feel it's very anticlimactic especially after that amazing and epic final stage (I was honestly hesitating between 9.9 and 10, and this made me take a decision).
In conclusion, if you are a fan of Nader style, play it. If you are not, play it.

From the grandfather of Neon comes a fantastic needle experience. Neon 3 brings all the stuff you love about the Neon series and spices things up with interesting gimmicks that flow well together, never feeling overwhelming or too complicated. From start to finish, any needle fan is guaranteed a good time.
The game is separated across a variety of whimsically named stages, all having their own aesthetically pleasing colour scheme. The early stages felt more classic Neon whereas the later ones venture into more gimmick-orientated territory. I particularly loved these later ones, such as the line-shooting gimmick which feels nicely expanded upon with the different effects. There's a bunch of easter-eggs hidden throughout too, although I can't say I found any and had to be guided to one in particular. Something to keep an eye open for though. The game finishes with a very fun finale and charming little ending to round things off. It felt like a very Nader-style ending.
I found little to complain about here. For a new Neon game, it surpassed my expectations and stands out as not just a great Neon game but a very memorable and polished platforming experience. If I could find one nitpick, it's that the constant black background and similar visual style make many parts of the game sort of blend together and have less individuality or memorability. Having said that, that's just sort of the Neon style, and expecting a sudden change in visual style would be kinda jarring anyway.
Another great needle classic to add to the list of greats that've came out in 2019. I don't know if Nader has plans for more Neon games after this as it kind of felt like a love-letter to the series with a very satisfying conclusion, but I can only hope it isn't the last Nader game we get. Fully recommended.

It's pretty good and your enjoyment might vary with whether or not you enjoy Nader's style of needle. I generally like the visuals but have to take a break from playing more often than with typical fangames as the neon line everything can give me a bit of a headache after a while. And while this isn't directly levied at Nader specifically, his game does fall under the umbrella of how the popularity of a streamer/fangame maker often skews objective criticism of the game in question toward the higher end simply because people like that person or know their name. It's a well designed game with solid generally forgiving needle and standard gimmicks used well, the hub halfway through the game was a nice surprise likely inspired by CN3... it was all very good, just not amazing and I just can't get on the hype train with everyone else and their GOTY ratings.
