Maybe there's a gap between the last two levels where you play bad games because games are fun before going back to investigating oddities. Also not sure Boku No Natsuyasumi belongs as it seems quite well known. Maybe replace with something like https://www.backloggd.com/games/jesus-kyoufu-no-bio-monster/
There also may be another one even before that where quality doesn't matter, only novelty does
@bitterbatterdog I like those ideas, are the bad games one and the novelty one separate?
I think so. You look for Novelty in mechanics and get used to bad gameplay in the pursuit of fun playing games. Sounds a bit like enlightenment at the point 😂
Some examples of novelty I can think of off the top of my head, Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland, The Firemen, Mr. Bones
@bitterbatterdog alright so lvl10: bad games. Do you mean like sonic 06 bad or pathologic ‘bad’ where there is bad gameplay on purpose

And lvl11: novelty, like weird, cool stuff
Thinking Janky for bad games so more behind Sonic 06. For I agree.

Personally I would lead with Novelty , then bad games and then purely Detchibe
im rly called out for the three years of service thing.
