I seem to have reverted to my historic default of games I regularly play; Smash Ultimate, Mario Kart 8, and a rougelike. In the past, said rougelike was always Dead Cells, since it was essentially the only one in my library, but since mid-2023, I've started seriously using Steam, and through it started playing other rougelikes. Right now, my rougelike of choice is Spiritfall, which mixes platform fighter gameplay with the rougelike structure, which given my historic attachment to Smash and other rougelikes, makes it a game I was pretty much guaranteed to enjoy.
It's nice to return to some "comfort games", that is kind of why I returned to Mario Kart 8 too.
Are you looking forward to anything coming out?
I'd say the most interested I am in any upcoming game right now is probably Antonblast, a Wario Land-inspired platformer slated to release at some point this year. Was first introduced to its earliest demo by someone building a Smash Ultimate custom stage inspired by said demo, and have kept the game on my radar since then.
Just looked it up, it looks interesting. Going to keep an eye on it!
