Best of 2024

by langdonx

This year, I played exactly 10 games. RIP.

Regrets and Honorable Mentions:

Regrettably Not Played:

  1. Metaphor: ReFantazio: I couldn't even finish Persona 5, why would I start this. 😅
  2. UFO 50: Probably great (Derek Yu and all), but not Spelunky, so I didn't prioritize.

Honorable Mention:

None, I only played 10 new games.

Helldivers II

1. Helldivers II

Pretty amazing follow up to an already amazing game. I even kept playing after I Platinumed it.

Anger Foot

2. Anger Foot

Hotline Miami X Duke Nukem 3D foot mechanic. It was incredible and I loved every minute of it. Try and try and try again until I got all the stars.

SteamWorld Heist II

3. SteamWorld Heist II

Much like Helldivers, this was a flawless sequel. Terrific gameplay, style, story, and the soundtrack was to die for.

Astro Bot

Thanks Rob.

Nine Sols

6. Nine Sols

I didn't finish it, but damn it if the combat wasn't perfect. It was just ruined by shitty a confusing metroidvania-ass world that I spent too long back tracking through, so much so that I got bored of and quit.

Pepper Grinder

Buckshot Roulette

South Park: Snow Day
