Random Neopets review: Dimensional

(Doing some random reviews because there are no Neopet review requests in the inbox right now. If you have any send them in etc etc.)

Dimensional is a pretty strange colour, as it's not really clear what it's supposed to be. The name is too vague to be useful, and the actual design is...the best way I can describe it is kind of like a neon sign, but also not, which isn't very helpful. Specifically, it makes the pet's outline white, adds a glow effect to it, and then fills in the empty space with a textured color of some kind. It's unique enough, but it's pretty niche and not all that exciting.

Part of the issue is that the colour remains the same for all Neopets (minus some artistic decisions). Consistent colours aren't bad or anything, but there's nothing about this one that's interesting enough to hold its own. It does change which solid color is used for each pet, but that actually can lead to issues—rather than keeping the base dark and changing the glow, it usually changes the darker colour, resulting in garish or just plain ugly pets, with the yellow ones looking particularly, uh, Bad.

I feel like a more interesting direction would've been just to go full neon sign—maybe even make the areas between the lines transparent so people could go ham customizing. It would still be niche, but I feel like that would be more unique and fun to play with at least. Regardless, this isn't the worst colour, but it's definitely not the best.

Dimensional was created after conversion, so there's no pre-customization art to discuss.

Favorite Species:

Koi: The dimensional Koi was literally just released yesterday at the time of writing, and it looks surprisingly nice. What's unique here is that it uses a simple dark purple base with varying hue shifts, but also uses multiple colors for the line glow, including orange and blue. It's very pretty and gives the colour a bit more depth and visual interest than it usually has. The Uni does something similar and also looks pretty good.

Quiggle: The dimensional Quiggle is mostly standard, minus one thing—instead of just making the eyeballs white, they're instead transparent and sit on top of the body. That's very fun, and something that I think more dimensional pets could play around with. The red also works pretty well thanks to the dark-colored base providing contrast.

Eyrie: The dimensional Eyrie isn't anything super special, but it does look good. The dark and light blue contrast is solid, and the lines genuinely look like they're glowing (instead of being a solid white with a glow around them). The glow itself also seems to change width throughout, giving it a good sense of depth, and there's no real texturing on the base to mess it up.

Least Favorite Species:

Hissi: There were unfortunately a lot of contestants for this spot (including the dimensional Usul and Acara), but the Hissi is probably the worst. The body texture is both weird and distracting, and the lines barely look like they're glowing. Also, the pupils are missing, so now what should be the eye highlights look like the pupils and that's just weird and very off-looking. Also also, the color is pretty desaturated. Bleh.
