I cannot express how much you need to play this game. I need you to go out and support @dcellgames, support @spellbang and the rest of the team, please, play Unbeatable. I don't have enough words in the world to summarize my feelings. Infinity/10, I will never be over this game.

Unbeatable is not just my game of the year, it is possibly my game of Ever. I cried multiple times playing this game. I have not stopped talking about the plot, about moments, about implications for a single day since playing it. Under all that, I am constantly in Arcade mode too

As a historic Digimon Hater, I didn't expect much going into Time Stranger. In return, it gave me a ton of great little guys, a really wonderful plot, and incredibly solid battle design. Real SMT/Persona energy in this one, loved it a bunch. 9/10

Prime 4 is... basically just enough. Every problem (except one) I've heard someone have is not a thing that's bothered me at all, but also it's nothing brilliant and perfect. Could have used a fast travel unlock right at the end for cleanup, and the final boss is not great. 6/10

Air Riders is absolutely everything I could have asked for, and more. All the modes are great, it's a real ass Kirby story, and being able to play online is a godsend. I've been wanting this game for eighty years. 10/10

Age of Imprisonment sadly has the same issue as Calamity, in that it's a bad musou where fully nothing happens if it's not on screen, meaning you never need to plan or hurry or make strategic decisions. Unlike Calamity, I enjoyed the plot and character movesets a ton here. 7/10

Mega Dimension is, unfortunately, worse. I really adore the setup, characters get even better, and I even really like the rifts! The grind for berries to do post-game is just so unbelievably awful that I put it down after one attempt to do any. 5/10

Legends Z-A is such a good time. I loved exploring Lumiose, all the characters are phenomenal, and the new Megas rule. Research task for Battles is far longer than it has any right to be, 1000 is more than double what you need to finish the story. Otherwise 100%ed main game, 9/10

DK Bananza is just what I want from a Nintendo collectathon, plus oh my god is digging through every inch of the world a good time. Great time 100%ing through final boss, never finished post-game because they wanted me to do Zebra challenges and it's awful to control. 8/10

Mario Kart World is a Mario Kart. I really enjoy the open world, and the interconnectivity, and the things that allows, but unfortunately they came at the cost of standard races in a lot of instances. Also they didn't add any way to track your collectables till after I quit. 6/10

@Cybernemic got me to sit down and play through The Silver Case after many years. It is, the most insane Suda 51 nonsense, a perfect start to Kill The Past. I am still baffled by every part of this video game, in the best way. 9/10 story, 1/10 controlling the game in any way ever

Squeakross is a game that I will probably never finish playing. It is such a perfect little Picross game, with so much aesthetic customization, I will be coming back to it randomly probably for years to come. 10/10

I stumbled randomly on the previous Lone Fungus last year, only to see that they had kickstarted a sequel which dropped recently! I don't quite think I enjoyed it in my hands as much as the first, but it was still a great time and a solid metroidvania. 6/10

Once Upon A Katamari is another I haven't finished yet! But, well, it's new Katamari! Always a really great time, tons of variety in this one, really enjoyable, currently sitting at 8/10.

And by complete chance, my 10th anniversary merch arrived *while* writing that last post! Thank you a million times, @rustylakecom, for all the good times, looking forward to many more years of stories.

I had @Cybernemic play the entire Rusty Lake/Cube Escape series this year, but I've been a devoted fan for nearly the entire lifespan. MRMS celebrates 10 years of the series, and is such a joyous sendup I'm so utterly thrilled. 10/10 no question

I had a pretty great time with MGS Delta! I wish it was more remake than pure remaster, but MGS3 is one of the best so, I can't complain too much. Then they added multiplayer out of nowhere and it rules! If I had a regular doubles partner I'd still be in. 6/10, +1 with fox hunt.

I played a bit of Hades 2 in early access, but didn't dive deep till 1.0. Incredible game, I love controlling Mel even more than Zag, though I'm not as all in on every weapon this time. Truly phenomenal as supergiant always is. 9/10

I finally got around to Slay the Princess! It is so hard to put this game into words that don't spoil it. I absolutely adore the way this game flows and is written, just such a great experience, I need to get even more endings. 10/10

Silksong! This game is SO GOOD. There were some issues with damage on launch that I think aren't fully to my liking still but are definitely better. A better Singular Experience than HK in my opinion, but far far less replayable. 8/10
