There’s a lot of things to be nostalgic about in any given childhood. For me, I had a big orange box filled to the brim with Hot Wheels; Dad would let me grab one every time we went to the grocery store…
I really like cute, yet strange games. A good example of that is Psychonauts or even MediEvil, both of which have a cute yet dark aesthetic. Lost in Random is actually an experience that surprised me. I expected a Roguelike experience set…
