content

The plot of the series revolves around the development studio GameaVision and its eccentric collaborators, especially lazy Dave and his nervous buddy Jerry. The entire series takes place in Sunnyvale in the 1980s. Code Monkey's humor is based on crude sayings and stoner jokes as well as numerous allusions to computer games of the past and present, and above all games of the 8-bit era . These also extend to cameo appearances by game developers from well-known video games who present ideas for their later famous games at GameaVision and are usually rejected, insulted and sometimes injured or killed.

Epsiod structure

Each episode is designed like an 8-bit video game. For this purpose, figures, backgrounds and other objects are displayed with an 8-bit color palette, which occasionally leads to problems with more complex objects. Most episodes begin with a black screen that lights up with the text “PLAYER 1 START!” And also ends with a black screen that says “Game Over”. Within the episodes there are various status bars at the top and bottom of the screen, which show the points scored, health, emotions, comments or pictures. The show is completely computer animated with the exception of the credits.
