What have you all been playing!

I have been playing a ton of Aeterna Noctis in an attempt to start clearing up my backlog. It's really good so far! Tough platforming but I enjoy that a lot.

I played the entirety of "Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion", which was short, fun, and cute. I'm increasingly finding that I lack the stamina and mental headspace for large games, and I'm appreciating the little indie games a lot more. Something about the combination of cute food characters and running around committing petty crimes and ripping up documents just really appealed to me.

Yesterday I started "Earthlock", which I got a couple of months ago in a giveaway. I'm liking it so far. Has a lot of "Final Fantasy games in the 1990s" vibes which is working for me. There's more frogs than I expected, which is always a pleasant surprise.

If you want more cute short games, Frog Detective is one of my favorites!

It's on my wishlist! It does look so, so cute. <3

I should’ve known, I didn’t realize your username 🐸

I thought you suggested it because of my username. Even better than you didn't notice, and have now realised there's another reason I should play Frog Detective. 🐸

Oh I love Frog Detective! I played it together with my (then) 5 year old daughter, where I was required to read out loud all the dialogue in funny voices.
They are indeed very cute and short games.

edit: it's a trilogy, not one game :)

You can’t not read them in silly voices! I also did that for Night in the Woods (which has a much heavier story but is equally cute)
