Joey - Leafeator @leafeator.com · 18/03/2026
After the Oscars; I was curious if I historically preferred the film that won Best Picture or Best Original Screenplay. In the last 33 years, there were 22 instances of the two categories having different winners. In 15 of those 22, I think Screenplay clears A way too tall graphic of preference

A month late. But all of my (new) 2025 TV/Movies/Anime ranked and tier listed out. Feels like the first year in many that we actually had TV to be excited about. Me thinks people really slept on Common Side Effects. You should go watch that.

Many Nights a Whisper is another short (90 min) game that accomplishes my favorite thing in art/media -- making me feel something. At the end of the game I felt honest to goodness real life anxiety and confidence. How many games have made me do that? < ... 5?

Ooo is a ~2hr puzzle platformer that makes you feel so smart because of how well it teaches you all of the little mechanics. It borrows bits and pieces from ~10+ S Tier games in the puzzle and platform and metroid genera. If you like puzzle platformers even a little, it's a must.

Consume Me won like... every? IGF award. I initially put it off after seeing good reviews earlier this year, but I am happy that I went back to it. As someone who also struggles somewhere on the ED spectrum - the narrative hits a little bit harder. I liked spending ~6hrs managing my meters

Pipistrello is the best 2D Zelda game in the last 10 years. It has a fun story. The puzzling and exploration is heavily focused on platforming. It commits fully into a GBA aesthetic. A love letter done right that way way more people who like this style should try out.

Lost 12 hours of my Saturday to a game I have already played across decades and numerous consoles. Still cried. Still peak. This right off the back of Death Stranding 2 has fully overflowed my Kojima cup.

7000 miles, 5 popups, 6 Bemani arcades, 7 national parks, 5 State capitols. Was pretty cool meeting so many fans around the US and playing games with them.

ANA is like: - No you can't pay for an extra bag - No you can't pay for extra weight So because I am 1KG over I am now carrying my vacuum packed laundry onto the plane. A solution that I am sure everyone is a massive fan of.

Found myself watching much more anime this year than traditional TV. It's like we're in this post-prestiege zombie era of drama; driven by streaming platforms being safe and not understanding what made golden age Netflix/HBO/SHO. And it's a bummer. Great anime tho 😅

I've always wanted to go to #wrestlekingdom every year for the last decade. NJPW really ignited an old latent enjoyment of wrestling. Over the moon tonight. Life is good.

🇹🇼 The prices and diversity from American items are remarkable. Two stories, they force you to go to the second floor on entry. No one checked my card?! I did some filming and really need to edit it together to share.

#1 - Astro Bot It feels not cool when your GOTY is also the near universal GOTY. But what a treat. The amount of joy that oozes out of this is special. It's also really close to being a perfect Mario level platformer. But where it lightly bumbles in mechanics it makes up for in charm. 9/10

#2 - Elden Ring DLC. It can't be #1 because..... I don't think a DLC can be GOTY. Remember that discourse? But I loved and hated PCR pre-patch.

#3 - Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door [2024] I was giddy and shocked when this got announced. One of my favorite games, ever, dripping with nostalgia. While the modern version holds up (and then some - thanks for the increased item limit); I didn't feel all the magic. But, damn it's still good.

#4 - Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth I never liked the brawler mechanic Yakuza games. But this, this is the game that made me realize why so many others love this franchise. It also made me want to visit Honolulu. In a year with a ton of JRPG's this is the one I'll remember the most.

5. Shogun Showdown Do you like tactic combat turn based deckbuilders? Roguelikes? Put this on your switch/deck and watch a flight melt away as you learn 5 unique characters and dozens of unique weapon/cards. I simply had to play this to credits which was... not easy!

Joey - Leafeator @leafeator.com · 27/12/2024
4. Minishoot Adventures. Do you like Zelda? Do you like bullet hell? Please play this game. Memorable for it's mechanics and end-game. Casually the best Zelda game this year.

3. P3R. Music of the year. Does it count if it's a remaster? IDK. Some of the dungeons can be long in the tooth. It clearly has less mechanics/complexity than p5r. But boy - I am glad I get to play modern versions of these. Young me missed out.

Joey - Leafeator @leafeator.com · 27/12/2024
2. 1000xResist. I think you need to be the right customer for this game. Ya gotta wanna think. And play slow. And be deep into the sci-fi. But for some, this was the narrative of the year. And I get that. And it deserves the praise.

Five good games that were not in my top 5 of 2024; but are honorable mentions: 1. Leap Year - Like Fowl Damage. A puzzle platformer where your jump kills you. Heavier on the puzzles. ~90 min runtime that keeps you going OOOOOOHHHH DUH. Really, really clever gamedev.

MERRY CHRISTMAS. My gift to you is another game about EGGS. But this time, you haven't heard of it. It's a puzzle platformer by the same publisher as Peglin. And it slaps hard. Your jump, kills you. Play this game, please. Bravo @rednexusgames.bsky.social

Finished up Crypt Custodian today. Small accomplishment of finishing every game on IGN's Indie award GOTY list. Tis a good lil metroid game with fun boss battles. It's cute. Doesn't reinvent the wheel but does turn quite smooth.
