I want to eat this game. The environments are gorgeous, I want to live in most of these courses so bad! Hope I can get my friends to hop on sometime

Fucked up in the crib playing Palworld

I adore this. Everything is lively and colorful, there were so many times where I'd stop progressing through a level to take it all in.
Speaking of levels there's a lot more than I thought there'd be, but the different gameplay styles really help keep things fresh! It's an easy game but I didn't mind at all. Plus I feel like those hidden tanukis you find in certain levels sorta made up for it, most of them were tricky to find!
I also love the way levels are completed in this game. Switching between the L and R buttons to use your drumsticks to restore the calamity towers and hearing that little jingle at the end never got old and always brought a smile to my face. One of my only gripes are the occasional framedrops. It can chug when there's a lot on screen, but other than that this is fantastic.
I played this with the english fan translation patch which was nice to have. Manifesting a localization announcement during the Nintendo Partner Showcase tomorrow because more people should check this out!
EDIT: Looks like it wasn't there... maybe next time Bakerubros

I missed these two so much. Pearlina Nation we won
Wasn't feeling this as much as I thought I would at first, but when you get the hang of the controls everything clicks! Keeping that flow going through the whole level and maintaining your combo can be tricky, but pulling it off is super satisfying. That paired with dreamy visuals and an amazing soundtrack makes for something truly special. Can't wait to see what Evening Star cooks up next.

Two weeks ago I remembered that I own a dance pad and I have not been the same since
Pretty fun! Games on the shorter side are always welcome in my book, especially since most of the new releases I've played this year so far have been 50+ hour jrpgs (affectionate)
