Crest is a god/society simulator game with a twist: you can only give vague commands to your people, and hope they figure out what you mean. Sometimes they infer a totally different meaning, like deciding that instead of "people in city, make babies" they thought I meant "go make war with people that have babies... which is... quite a thing. It's got a chill soundtrack and a very distinct aesthetic, and it is for sure someone's style of game. It could do with tutorial levels though. The tutorial... god? that walks you through it is way too much.

Beppo's Hole in One Golf is a love letter to the VGA-era golf games. It's perfect for what it is, and I'm _so_ glad I got to play it.

Super Crome: Bullet Purgatory is a bullet hell game with some really fun mechanics. You have a couple alt fires (big shot, spawn some helpers, and homing bullets), as well as a dodge mechanic that was a shock to interact with at first but does feel really good once you start to get a handle on it. It's also great to look at, has some great music, and the bosses (at least the ones I got to) were a lot of fun to go up against. A+.

Cosmic Express is a puzzle game where you have to build a railroad to pick up and drop off aliens. It's a simple mechanic but the puzzles get absolutely fiendish. That last puzzle had me and my chat really having a hard look at ourselves and how smart we thought we were. It was humbling.

I'm going to be revisiting Cosmic Express again.
