cute and sweet furry game that also pretty effectively tackles depression and artist's block, the painting mechanics flow really well in the zelda-like gameplay and a lena raine soundtrack is always welcome, I really vibe with it

very fun roguelite with cool greek myth theming, story and characters don't really grab me but they're fine and the game will keep you occupied for a long while (some might say too long if you want the complete story because that does get grindy)

high-quality remake of a very fun and charming rpg with some pretty neat battle mechanics, story is nothing crazy and it likes to waste your time in a few areas but it's highly competent at what it sets out to do (also shoutout to vivian being trans and stuff)

a tricky puzzle-focused metroidvania with some fun mechanics in a beautiful mysterious environment, a lot of secrets are deeply esoteric and getting everything can be a pain but it's a nice experience in general

calm and relaxing picross-like game that's perhaps almost too simple but it's pleasant, I like it

cool concept with mixed execution, some stages are pretty finicky and it can get kinda repetitive with the multiple playthroughs (one of which, chaotix, kinda sucks) but the good ideas are great fun and neo metal sonic goes hard

simply a really fun run-n-gun, truly a classic and shows how cool the mega drive was

incredibly fun and satisfying action-heavy adventure with rhythm mechanics that still work even if you're bad at it, full of hype and some good-ass music

it's short, sweet, and peach gets to actually do some cool stuff! I don't think it should be full-price because it's not super fleshed out, and there are some bits that are just kind of annoying in spite of how relatively easy the game is overall, but it's a fine experience

insanely stylish JSR-like that's hard to get good at but once you know what you're doing it's an all-around fun time, punk as hell and I vibe with it but on switch it does have some technical issues

fun and wacky fast-paced 3d platformer, like a sonic game with yo-yo mechanics, and unfortunately also like a sonic game it can be kind of janky in places with controls I personally had issues with sometimes (but it's still fun!)

funny little send-up of the cd-i's most awkward games, very self aware and plays surprisingly okay for the couple hours of silliness it takes to finish

short and sweet little love letter to vibes of the moomin series, it's pretty simple but it does well and is a great game for all ages

excellent roguelite take on splatoon single-player, a fun and quite well-designed challenge every time with some really nice story content (pearlina 4 eva)

stellar fangame prequel type thing that is a true labour of love, all the story routes are excellent and it's full of cool ideas of its own, genuinely blown away by the way it concludes in each route - it's peak fangame
