Braid is the first video game on god's green earth bold enough to ask the question:
"What if Mario was an incel?"
Other esteemed creators such as Dorkly would stop at making a shoddily animated Youtube Short about this subject, but oh nonono, not the Alpha Male of game development, Jonny Blowe.
This is a bad video game made by one of the most high-profile indie developer shitheads out there. Yes, it was a trailblazer in 2008's XBOX Live Arcade, paving the path towards indie games being more overtly perceived as a legitimate (or at least sellable, lol) art form - but as a lot of trailblazers are, time hasn't been kind to it.
It frequently wastes your time and oftentimes mechanics are thrown in because they are fun to think about, not interesting to work with or play. Nice enough art direction, I suppose, but still, no need to revisit this one. Steer clear.

WarioWare: Move It!
2023
This is a better Smooth Moves, and considering Smooth Moves is my favorite WarioWare, this is my new favorite.
This game is tough! But that's refreshing to me! Some of the poses they have you do are really challenging and it definitely gave me an actual workout at points. Because of this I had to kinda play in small bursts cause I'm weak lol, but this was really fun! It's refreshing after GiT for the series to just return to a previous gimmick and flesh it out even more. Also the cutscenes are so good and cute and fully voiced. Awesome game!
