Truth be told, gaming for me? It's not that fun anymore. It's not that relaxing, and I honestly get more pleasure out of making small games than I do playing them. I only really play Hearts of Iron IV passively and Deltarune when new chapters come out.

Undertale. Ah yes, this game. Every young and emotionally undeveloped kid latched onto this game like it was a drug. I had believed that this game was truly, absolutely truly the greatest game of all time. But then Deltarune came out. But that game isn't fully out yet, so I'll talk about that in a few years time.

I think Undertale's soundtrack and brilliant meta story telling really left an impact on me that said "this was important." Hell, I'm not even sure why. This game is probably the main reason I want to make games. The experience I had felt was made and crafted by a real, living individual. I had wanted to do the same. I wanted to feel what I felt again, and what would be even better? To be the one to make this experience and have others be obsessed with MY creation just like I was obsessed with Toby Fox's Undertale.

Yet another RPG. I don't really have much to say about OMORI besides Ho-ly-fu-ck. Everything about this game is fucking perfect. The story, music, art direction, it's brilliant. If you are reading this and you haven't played OMORI, I HIGHLY implore you to do so. Like, seriously. This game is the culmination of seven years worth of work and the combined efforts from the minds of some (clearly) very intelligent people.

Would you be very suprised if I said this game destroyed me? This was the first game I had decided to get every achievement for. I wanted to know everything about OMORI. This game is so impactful, that I still am developing and learning the lessons from the game. While Undertale's impact on me is very clear, OMORI's is still ambiguous. I don't know how much it's impacted me yet. Nevertheless, this is THE game I aspire to make one day.

I love Portal Two. But, it pains me to admit that I simply don't feel what I once felt for it when I was younger. I can't even narrow down what makes it so memorable. Exploring Aperture Science made me feel something that no other game has really come close to feeling. The mystery and scale of the facility, just made me feel something.

I think one day, if I ever have a child, I am going to show them Portal one and Two. I think a puzzle game with engaging humor, a storyline with what feels like real stakes, and challenging puzzles is exactly what this world needs. Listen, I love games like Roblox, but perhaps it's serious games that kids should see: not micro-transaction brainrot hell. I mean, that's what it feels like when I go on Roblox nowadays.
