Still Balatro. Hands. Down.
Quote this with your favourite game from 2024, and whether that's changed from what you would have said a year ago

Two-way ties count.

A few months ago Chris Philp called me “unhinged” in a Telegraph article about a video I made.
In it I warned about the brutality of ICE, & argued those who appease Trump would open the door to Fascism here too. I was called ‘hysterical’.
I have 0 regrets about that message.

I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance".
It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder".
The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

The President of the United States has lied to the nation to cover up a murder. That is indisputable fact and everyone knows it.

1) You Can Buy Every Upgrade
This short metroidvania has a literal title and a nice set of power-ups for a simple adventure. It manages the combination of upgrades and optional routes really well, and packs a lot into around 25 minutes of gameplay.
