I forgot to do my rankings, so I'll do a shortlist. Top recommendations outside the big names: Shredder's Revenge, Yoku's Island Express, Konami Pixel Puzzle if you like picross, FutureGrind, Infernax, Paradise Killer, and Head AS Code

Send me a reminder if I don't have a yaml posted by Friday, but I am planning on joining this one, just not sure what I want to play yet

31. Beat a game with a child lead

Ni No Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch Remastered

50/50, all done! I'll compile my rankings of these games soon

SA2 Battle on sale just in time! I sent the yaml for it

48. Beat a game that starts with the first letter of your username

Head AS Code. If you like 999 and VLR you'll like this as it was definitely inspired by those games

49/50

16. Beat a rhythm game

Avicii Invector

48/50

Cincinnati Bengals
Minnesota Vikings
Atlanta Falcons
Dallas Cowboys
Detroit Lions
Indianapolis Colts

Philadelphia Eagles
Pittsburgh Steelers
Buffalo Bills
Houston Texans
Arizona Cardinals
Green Bay Packers
Las Vegas Raiders
Kansas City Chiefs
Los Angeles Rams

Level 3:

Vikings (-2.5)
Giants (-2.5)

Bonus: Buffalo

The labyrinth dungeons fully burned me out but it was a good ride. The main thing I wanted before an EoS was the realm dungeons being fully completed, and they did that. For me, finishing Realm and Record dungeons was satisfying enough. Doubt I'll ever play a gacha game again unless there's a good story that actually concludes, but I have no regrets sticking this one out til the end

Moving Hydrophobia to 2002-2011 so I can fit another letter H game on my list later.

49. Choose a random page on TVTropes and beat something from the video game section

LIMBO (Minimalism)

Could be the nostalgia speaking, but this album definitely shows why the singles were the singles and the rest were not.

No strong feelings for any song in particular, album is okay. Probably need more time listening to see if something can get me hooked in

Cleveland Browns

Dream Theater - Images and Words
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Avenged Sevenfold - Avenged Sevenfold
Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory
Faith No More - Angel Dust

Top 8 are all fantastic albums, but the vast majority of these are good listens. Even with Elephant my main criticism is that I simply find it very boring. Everything has at least one good thing to offer, so overall this was a good set of albums

Watching a Timespinner randomizer tournament is inspiring me to run it again. Gonna add boss location rando and orb damage rando to this seed

48. Beat a game that starts with the first letter of your username

Hydrophobia. This looks like it belongs on the Dreamcast, and that's not a bad thing!

46/50

26. Beat a game with revenge as a central theme

This is not a memorable album, but it's a good one for when I want to turn my brain off while I'm doing something else. There's definitely a place for those kind of albums even if the individual tracks aren't special.

Tachi

Aquatic Ambiance

Argon Refinery

27. Beat a game with mystery as a central theme

Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair. Same deal as the first game, played the base version way back but this time got to play the Anniversary edition with the extra stuff.

3. Know Your Enemy
4. Bombtrack
5. Wake Up
6. Township Rebellion
7. Bullet In Your Head
8. Freedom
9. Fistful Of Steel

The Rock Band factor helps solidify Killing In The Name at #1, still real fun to play when I break out the game.

Different World 1

I'm with you KCF! This is a good set of retirees. All the losing songs I voted for in R4 were not easy decisions so I'm totally fine with how it played out in the end. I have my favorites but I don't think there's any song left that I straight up don't like so I can't complain too much about who will end up on top

The Lost City
Prophecy

23. Beat a sports game

FutureGrind. The future of extreme sports! Basically a rail grinding game, very nice easy to learn hard to master game, and it's pretty short. If you bought the first big itch.io bundle a few years back this was part of it.

43/50
