Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you’d expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS’s dual screens. It’s also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I’m so sad there’s no sequel :(

    Sally Can’t Sleep. It’s a strange indie first person platformer with a lot of focus on versatile and exploitable movement mechanics. The dev sacrificed visual polish for quantity and style, so the game has a lot of interconnected levels with a wide variety of different mechanics, types of level design, and visual styles - it’s a really good example of how much a solo developer can accomplish. It’s pretty funny, too. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game pull a credits gag like it did.
