Last Rites
It's an... interesting... shooter. On the one hand the technology seems fairly advanced for its time but on the other hand you can tell the devs didn't exactly have the shooter standards down. Levels are big but the radar in the bottom left is a pickup. I spent 40 minutes just running around the first level before I found it and it showed me which switches to hit in which order. There are NPC teammates but they are useless and it doesnt matter if you lose them. Worst of all, there is mouse aiming by default but the Y axis starts off inverted. What sort of fucking degenerate came up with that?!

Dumping everything from the last couple of weeks.
A Plumber for All Seasons (SMW romhack)
I was in the mood for good old SNES platforming but wanted new levels. This one had great reviews.
Main features are the detailed graphics with extreme parallax scrolling, and unique, well-designed gimmicks for each level. Cape is replaced by SMB3's raccoon suit.
It starts off great. But over time, you'll start to notice levels adhere to a strict design formula. Despite the different gimmicks, every level seems to be based on the same blueprint. It's always the same progression and escalation which gets a bit stale towards the end. Flying with the raccoon suit is also never necessary or useful. It only serves to ease platforming challenges with the float ability.
Kamek's Revenge (Yoshi's Island romhack)
In this version, Shy Guys are cool and flowers are sad.
This one is a bit more challenging. It also likes to take some of the more exotic enemies and mechanics you would only see once briefly in the original, expand on them, and design entire lengthy levels around them, like this bouncy thing that sticks under your feet.
Forget about 100% completion during your first playthrough (or ever). Some flowers and red coins are hidden a little too well and/or tedious to get. That's a shame. I would have liked to play the bonus levels.
This labyrinth...
Getting bounced around on skis by penguins.
Remember the weird birds you could abduct and throw like boomerangs? This hack reskinned them and, once again, has an entire level based on this mechanic. You have to hit switches and open gates that would be impossible to hit with normal eggs.
Everybody loves Poochy!
Here you are forced to take 5 keys and keep them for the entire level, leaving only one slot for an egg.
Red switch + Super Baby Mario race.
This thing chases you through an autoscroller.
How to make the final boss harder? Ice physics!
Momodora - Reverie Under the Moonlight
Short and simple metroidvania with focus on combat.
Includes boob physics.
The entire map almost fits in one screen.
Coolest boss in the game.
TUNIC
Looks like a Zelda clone, but it's more like a puzzle game.
Combat is mostly tame except for the bosses. Those can be pretty tough.
Use the Holy Cross!
One of the manual pages.
Taiji
The Witness clone.
These were really cheeky.
Merry Christmas!

That's fucking weird, man. I've been playing this, too. Got it cheap during the Steam sale and have been playing a lot of it during the past two or weeks or so. We have to be the only ones on the planet who are playing this shit.

Gameplay-wise Sacred 2 managed to shatter my nostalgia goggles rather quickly.
