Astro Bot is the best game of 2024. It's the best 3D platformer I've ever played and its one of the best games I've ever played. Not to hype it up too much.

Akimbot is a cross between Ratchet & Clank and Jak & Daxter that has the misfortune of being a robot-themed 3D platformer that released a week before another PlayStation-centric, robot-themed 3D platformer.

Akimbot is a 3D Platformer that blends Ratchet & Clank and Jak & Daxter. It still has unique ideas of its own, though. But does this lively platfomer live up to either PlayStation legend?

Akimbot is a fantastic 3D platformer inspired by PlayStation classics like Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank. But it can't help but be overshadowed by Astro Bot - another robot-themed, PlayStation-inspired 3D platformer that released just one week later.

House Flipper 2 initially left me a little disappointed when it first released. I liked it, but it was lacking in basic features. And it got me wondering: "are there better house flipper games out there?" This video is the result of my months long journey to find out. And boy did I find some weird stuff.

Bakeru is an incredible 3D platformer from longtime Nintendo collaborator GoodFeel, and its something of a spiritual successor to Ganbare Goemon.

Over five years covering video games on YouTube, I've featured a lot of games. It's time I go back and look at what happened to some of the games and their creators since I last covered them. There are some pretty big surprises in here, and plenty of sad stories...

Retro games are often thought of as old games, but a recent wave of indie games inspired by classic titles is proving that you don't have to look to the past to play a "retro" game.

We tend to think of retro games being old, because that's what retro means, right? Not necessarily, no! "Retro" simply means to imitate or recreate a design or style from an older generation. There's been a pattern with indie games the last decade that's become very clear in 2024. New indie games are imitating old video games, using their style and mechanics to create new experiences. This is what I call Retro Indie.

Duck Detective is a fantastic adventure game that hearkens back to the days of point and clicks. It's got all of the charm, wit, excellent writing, and clever deduction-based puzzles you'd expect from a game during the prime of the genre. This retro styled adventure comedy game is one of my favorite games of 2024.

Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip is the kind of game you like, but want to love. It has a great story, witty humor, great art, and an interesting setting, but its missing something...

House Flipper 2 is good and all, but is there a better house building game? From realistic simulators to rebuilding Europe after WW2, to dice playing chickens... it's a complicated question.
