Games I Played in 2021 ranked
The Omoris, the Meat Boy Forevers, and the Florences in between. So I don't get too scorched, I'll only be adding games I played at least till the halfway point, or if it's a special case, like a multiplayer online game or Bubsy. Still a bad list for metroidvania fans, sorry.

Definitely the worst Katamari game, but it's still a Katamari game. It's like saying that Shovel Knight's campaign is the worst part of the Treasure Trove saga.
Oh yeah, this title screamed for Multiplayer fun.
The birth of one of the quirkiest series ever.
When you need to test out a new peripheral, the WarioWare crew is there to help you.
One of the best “walking simulator” games I ever saw that manages to do some cool and unique stuff with its gameplay and story-telling.
Bowser stubs his toe at 3AM and gets angry.
Kind of bug and kind of snack! Your friends are never coming back!
Raise a toast and take a sip for one of the most challenging and fun boss rush styled games ever.
Now is your chance to be a [BRAND NEW MEME!]
A nice shinier coat for a nice and shiny PS2 game that deserved a rerelease. Now we just need the rest of the series.
Not as rich in gameplay as I like, but makes up for it more than enough with great writing.
The fact that I got a PS5 just for this game should say it all. The fact that it’s worth says more than enough.
The most lighthearted and comedic Shovel Knight adventure, with great gameplay and disappointing your mother.
Definitely the most depressing of the Shovel Knight Treasure Trove stories, but still great fun.
Ah, now THIS is what Super Meat Boy is all about! Precise, challenging yet fair and fun platforming.
Neku’s character is one of the best I ever saw in fiction; if not that, then THE best.
The gold standard of the WarioWare series. One of the best games for the 3DS to go out on.
The superior rhythm game; sorry FNF. Maybe when you’re fully out.
I went into this game wanting to just replay the main story. Ended up getting all the cousins, presents, and beat Katamari Drive mode. It’s that addicting.
This pretty much fixed up all the problems of the predecessor and gave us some the best boss fights ever saw.
It feels like a dream for a game to be this good. Amazing side content, some of the best fighting in any rpg, a gripping overall mystery that I wanted to solve, writing that can be serious or humorous when the mood calls for it, great written characters, and it stars the MVP, Kel. Can’t recommend this highly enough.
The best of the series, and a great way to promote the series on the switch.
The peak of Shovel Knight, with fun gameplay moves, a surprisingly engaging love story, and basically being Shovel Knight but betters makes this an absolute blast.
A unique and fresh new gameplay style with a clever story about how to overcome your obstacles in life.
A game that I can 100% any time, any place. Some of the smoothest 3D movements I have ever saw, with a fun gimmick in the form of Cappy, and fan service in the form of all the costumes and Pauline returning. This is easily the best switch game, period.
