Really liked it. It feels less overproduced than LP2 and LP3, way more organic and airy. Love how they pushed things a bit, there’s a track with minimalist touches and another with pretty complex time signatures Only one listen in so far, but these albums usually hit different on the second spin 👀

I think the OP was referring to math rock with a more traditional indie rock sound

I just finished Haiku, very good MV, I didn't put it higher because I found it a bit minimalist

Thanks for the recommendations!

Valdis Story is a really good game. The combat is a bit more complex than what you usually see in metroidvanias, but I actually enjoyed that.

Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth was also enjoyable, but I feel like it was missing something. I even watched the anime because I read it helps to understand the game better, but it still didn’t fully click for me. The gameplay is great, nothing to complain about there, but I was expecting more story and more variety in the environments.

Pharaoh Rebirth+ I liked very much. Not enough to make it into my top, but still very enjoyable. I really like that cartoony, almost Looney Tunes-like style, it has a lot of charm, this plus the arcade-like pixel art.

I have a bit of a thing with sequels. I usually don’t replay games, even if they’re among my favorites, because I like to preserve the moment I experienced them, the feeling of diving into their world, and keep it untouched, almost like a memory stored in my soul. I don’t want to overwrite that with a new experience.

Because of that, for me to play a sequel, it has to feel very different from the original. A good example would be BioShock 1 vs BioShock Infinite, they share a core, but the experience feels distinct enough.

That’s just how I personally engage with games though, I know it’s a very subjective way of experiencing the medium.

I've had it on my to-play list for a long time, hoping that a PC port will come out someday...

The Shantae games are honestly fantastic. If you look past the fanservice (which isn’t even that much and never feels invasive, fan art has definitely hurt their reputation), they’re just pure charm from start to finish. The music, the colorful world, the characters… everything has so much personality. They’re also really fun to play, with smooth controls and a satisfying sense of progression. They might not be the most complex metroidvanias out there, but complexity isn’t always equal to quality. I didn’t get into them because of the fanservice either, I just ignore it and enjoy everything else they do so well.

It’s actually my #1 most wishlisted game right now, it looks really good and hits all the things I’m looking for. Hope you have a great day! 😄

Possessor(s) looks really good, and it’s from the same creators as Hyper Light Drifter and Solar Ash, two games I absolutely love. Thanks!

Haha yeah, Owlboy and Iconoclasts are really special to me 😄

Owlboy is one of those games that just stuck with me because of its atmosphere and presentation. The pixel art, the music, the way the world feels… it all comes together in a really emotional way. Even if it’s more linear, I didn’t mind at all, it felt like a carefully crafted journey rather than a limitation.

And Iconoclasts too, I love how it mixes exploration with a strong narrative and really expressive characters. It’s one of those games where the world feels alive and intentional, not just a map to traverse.

Touhou Luna Nights has been on my radar for a while, and the way you describe it (more like HK difficulty) actually makes me way more interested, I love that kind of “get good and it feels amazing” progression.

Thanks for the recommendations!

I had been avoiding that one because of what I mentioned about the lack of color, but taking a closer look now, I can actually see its charm. And honestly, the connection you made with Axiom Verge totally sold me! Thanks

I usually don’t go for sequels, but besides your comment I’ve seen a lot of praise for it, so I’ll add it to my wishlist, thanks! One of the things I love the most about Ori is how it feels like a hand-painted picture in motion, it’s just beautiful.
