I beat Shrimphony of the Night woo. I don't know if I like it better than Super Metroid (obvious comparison but that's the closest thing I feel I can compare it to) but the atmosphere, music, sound effects, graphics were all top tier. Gameplay of course is great too, but I feel like I just facetanked most bosses. Still, easy to tell why it set the standard for these types of explorative platformer-RPGs. I don't think I've played any game of it's genre that was better than this.
Now that's 3 games beat this year? I got to speed it up if I want to beat 52 in 2025, but honestly after this I'm motivated to play more old PS stuff, also I finally got cables for my Dreamcast now so I can just burn any game I want for it...
@beardalaxy Fuuuck I swear I walked around for an hour until I coincidentally was walking by as it opened lmao
