Platform: Nintendo 3DS

One of if not the best 2D platformers ever (likely biased by my childhood). Amazing music, art, level design and controls. Masterpiece.

Some of the most fun platforming around at the time. Loved the art, characters, level design and perhaps more than anything - the music. My cousin deleted my savefile and I haven’t forgiven him decades later.

A masterpiece and one of, if not the best Game Boy releases. Way back when Pokémon was still fresh and everything involved was delightful and fun. I chose Squirtle.

A simple but mostly well executed puzzle game with an interesting story, a good level of variety and great soundtrack.

Retro inspired rhythm game with lots of cute homages to other indies, challenging levels and a commitment to simplicity that today highlights what went wrong with the sequels.

If you’re into challenging platformers this is a must buy. At times the difficulty feels artificial, but overall it’s extremely solid. Prepare yourself for frustration if not rage.
