Sure, some of Code Monkeys‘ jokes are incredibly dated, reliant on uncomfy racial stereotypes, and require the viewer to have pop culture knowledge of early 80s gaming industry, but the jokes still hit hard. The entire series, which centers on a gang of video game developers in the 1980s, is stylized to look like a 16-bit arcade game, complete with health bars, stats, and tons of other Easter eggs in the border margins of the screen. The main characters include a gun-slinging cowboy who owns the gaming company, his mindless jock son, an adopted Korean game tester, and a wide array of obnoxious and socially-inept game developers.
