A neat little 5-minute 3-stage pixel porn game. The animation is fantastically done and delightfully bouncy, right from stage 1. The focus on gamefeel is pretty unique for a porn game and the tactile sensation of the, uh, squeezing in stage 2 is utterly palpable. Even the shaking of stage 3 has a distinct physical feel in trying to get the rhythm just right. Kinda wish the game lasted more than like 5 minutes, but a nice bit of fun for what it is.

A fun, cheerful rhythm game featuring various electronic tracks from Chinese/Japanese artists. Honestly pretty good for music discovery for this genre since I have absolutely no idea how I would ever even come across Chinese language EDM otherwise. The presentation is incredibly polished and the anime girls' designs really nail the cute/sexy feel they're going for. The gameplay feels a little simplistic though, as there's really only two "lanes," the ground and air. Perfectly suited for mobile, though on PC it feels a bit lacking in depth compared to other rhythm games.

Still the best item shop game out there currently. Atmosphere is pleasant, characters are cute, and the free market randomness is just chaotic enough to be interesting throughout many playthroughs. But good god, do I HATE the dungeons. The actual combat is so uninteresting and tedious and the grind has never been realer, especially when the game is specifically based around crafting and finding specific random drops. The haggling is SO fun though, and if it wasn't for the damn dungeons eating up what feels like half of the play time I'd be playing this a lot more.

Back then we called it "TF2 but with hot girls" but in retrospect, this game (and its predecessor) literally predicted Overwatch, MOBAs, and just like, competitive esports in general. Honestly, this game had some big ideas that just didn't quite hit as hard as it clearly wanted to. It also had this weird emphasis on grabs as part of the meta that was pretty unique and cool but also strange to wrap your head around. Honestly, wish we could've seen more from the franchise.

This game is basically split in two, gameplay-wise. There's an rts part, where you play as a dragon with a jetpack commanding your troops on the field, and a politics part, where you decide policy issues for the new government you're making which effect both the rts game as well as your relationships with each of the fantasy race's representatives. The rts part's just okay, it's a little janky, even. The politics part is more compelling, as the character writing's pretty good. While the representatives are basically just caricatures of political ideologies (the elf's an environmentalist, the dwarf's a capitalist, etc.), they're pretty dang funny caricatures. Accurate even, I dare say. Your officers are also pretty well developed, and I loved hearing what they had to say. I especially loved Scarlett. She's great! Also unexpectedly pretty good queer representation, how 'bout that?

Pretty spooky. Another one of these PS1 style horror games, though this one blends security-camera type footage backgrounds with the low-poly characters for an incredibly unnerving effect. The monster's rather abstract but honestly still terrifying and the ending sequence is actually pretty sick. Reminds me of the Anubis Rex boss from Pac-Man World, if anyone gets that.
