Comic for Wednesday 1/25 (Early High Res)
Added 2023-01-25 03:43:18 +0000 UTCJanuary 25th is upon us! The first day of Winter-een-mas!
I like to spend Winter-een-mas playing games, obviously, but I also like to use the week to appreciate some of the great stuff I've played recently. So for this week, each day I'm going to post a page dedicated to a different game I enjoyed in the past year. There are more than seven, but I'm going to pick the seven that stood out the most to me when I think of the past year.
Sound off in the comments with your favorite experiences of the last year if you'd like to do the same, or let me know if/how you'll be celebrating in your own way.

Stumbled across an indie game last month called Against the Storm and been addicted to it since. It's a roguelite colony builder, where you establish settlements in foreboding woods and try to satisfy colinist needs while having a different selection of buildings, positive and negative map modifiers, and races on each map. It's great because the most interesting part of colony games tends to be the start where you're struggling to fill everyone's needs, and that's the phase of the colony building genre this game focuses on. Takes me about three hours to play a map, and there's an over-arching meta progression that unlocks new rewards and challenges to keep the game feeling fresh.

I'm not a super sonic fan but I have all but 1 achievement in that game (It's now super hard because I kill most thing before I can reach the state of sonic I need 50 times ><) It just played like the original Horizon game for me.
