Heck, Lower Decks already did it with Boimler, with the status quo being back to normal after two episodes of fun B-plots on the Titan.

It's a shoe-in for Merriam Webster's word of the year, I reckon.

Unfortunately, Steve Ditko's 'Mr A.'

That’s why we praise RollerCoaster Tycoon’s dev, he wrote the entire thing in assembly.

It's ironic that we always seem to praise RollerCoaster Tycoon specifically, as that's one's based on the Transport Tycoon engine, which was also by Josh Sawyer and also in x86 assembly.

My suspicion is that the game would have been delayed had the new Harebrained Schemes game not just flopped.

Ultimately the problem with Perfect Dark as a franchise is that everyone who made it great went off and formed Free Radical and made the TimeSplitters games.

Not Trombone Champ, 2022's best indie game?

Psychonauts 2.

That's fair. It's one of the most minimal abstract puzzle games ever made, so there's not a lot to grab onto.

I think they published it, but don't actually own it.

Heck, even before you take into account differing xenobiologies, this has precedent on earth; different cultures are often unused to how other cultures smell.

The choice of Bynars as the latest victims was clever; if you're going to remind everyone what's going on with mysterious ship, but need to get through the entire sequence as quickly as possible, go with the species that transfer information at the quickest rate!

I mean, if we're gonna namedrop completely unique indie darling difficult puzzles, then Return of the Obra Dinn also deserves a mention.

And it's even on Game Pass! Oh, wait...

The Wolf Among Us 2 is straight up a cursed game at this point.

GIMP is free and also doubles as a way to express just how much I hate myself!

But wootz! Don't you see! Fortnite was making inroads into the metaverse, and we all know that whoever cracks the metaverse concept is going to reap infinite profits right? Because that's certainly not a weird dystopian sci-fi pipe dream or anything! It was going to be all smooth sailing straight into forever profits!

Quality, no. Reception, yes. These two things aren't necessarily the same.

They wanted to use it to sell music licences for games and media production and the like. But it never really worked out, so they've sold it to a company that already actually knows how to do that.
