backlog shrinker :]

uhhh i saw this posted by @MrWarm and i thought i'd put one of these together. did this in a call and accidentally got 2 friends to do it with me at once as well so i'm turning this exact list into an epidemic

i won't do this in perfect order (i already agreed to play a few of these alongside friends) but i think i'll basically do this in order whenever i want to pick something up and am getting decision paralysis. sounds useful for that exact purpose

6. Play a game from the 1990's
7. Play a game from the 2000's
8. Play a game from the 2010's
9. Play a game from the 2020's
10. Shuffle your backloggd and play the first game that appears
11. Play an indie game by a developer you haven't played anything from
12. Play the game that is the most popular
13. Play the game that is the least popular
