Jan. 09 - Pokemon Let's Go Eevee (Switch)

The game was fun! Hopefully next gen pokemon expands on this even further. I contemplated going for a full pokedex, but I feel I might run into issues with Mew and Melmetal given you can't acquire them in game.

Jan 10. Runner 3 (Switch)

I think I enjoyed Runner 2 more than 3. This one felt shorter, though I skipped all the optional levels. I felt I got into more of a zen flow in runner 2, it might have been all the variable mechanics they added to 3 that took away a bit from the core platforming. Still a fun experience, really appreciated the increased checkpoints and difficulty options they added in an update.

Beaten:
1/1 - Firewatch (PSN)

This game was okay. I'm not the biggest fan of "walking simulators" in the first place, but it was easy enough to knock out in a lazy afternoon.

1/13 - Pony Island (PC)

This was purchased for me for Christmas. Glad it was, as it would've otherwise been completely off my radar. Fun little constant-expectation-subversion game. Very meta, but it doesn't rely on that to be fun/interesting. Looking forward to playing its spiritual successor, The Hex, at some point in the future.

Learn Japanese To Survive - Hiragana Battle - Fun little game if you're trying to memories Hiragana. Felt very slow at times and the leveling systems a little broken. I was stupidly over leveled at the end. Never needing items. It got to the point where I'd run from battles because it just felt tedious. I feel like it's a fantastic learning tool as a gamer though and the game is alright. Zelda style game just don't expect any hard puzzles.

Breach was really enjoyable. I do like all the different achievements you can complete with the game, but I don't think I'll pursue them. Might come back to it someday though!
