There are so many builds to try and so many ways to get points; it’s addicting, and it scratched my love of gambling without any real-world consequences. It’s been a while since I’ve gone to bed after playing a game and woken up with the itch to jump right back in. I really think that with a few tweaks and a way to permanently have its amazing music play, CloverPit could stand alongside the games that it was inspired by.
I found Henry Halfhead to be a profound game that reminds you that it’s never too late. As the titular little creature, you can examine your role in your own life and how what is often seen as ‘good’ and ‘productive’ in the eyes of society will grind you into miserable dust and may even kill you…but also you can put together big puzzle pieces and wear funny hats. What more could you ask for from a game? What more could you ask for from life?
With bombastic characters, perfect pacing that can be finetuned, a new game + mode and an ending made for the people, this game has cemented itself as one of my favourites of the year. I usually move on when I finish games, but Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo may just reel me back in like a yoyo with how much of a delightful experience it is.
