Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Shatter! This is a fun Arkanoid clone with a few interesting twists like superb boss battles and outstanding music. This also just so happens to have come out in 2009 (18th birthday) which means I have officially gotten a bingo on all 3 boards!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Halloween Google Pac-Man. It is 8 stages of Pac-Man that can be played via Google for a limited time. A fun time waster while I was waiting for work programs to run. Happy Halloween!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Ratshaker. I don't know what the f*ck just happened. I feel like I need a hot shower. I'll just lay on the floor in the fetal position and let the water cleanse me while I have a good cry. I'm afraid to close my eyes lest I see that damn rat again.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Hollow Knight: Silksong! What can I say about this game that hasn't already been said? It is an absolute masterpiece that follows up on its predecessor admirably. Gorgeous art style. Beautiful soundtrack. Tough as nails gameplay. It is nearly perfect!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King! Holy moly what a ride this was! It's truly a masterpiece that gets better and better as the hours pass. I'm so happy to have played this w/ my buddies @blinkoom.bsky.social and @mrmulletgaming.bsky.social!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Garfield Kart: Furious Racing! I've been hearing so much about this new kart racer that came out so I had to give it a try. I don't understand all the hubbub but it's alright I guess. No real beat criteria so I cleared all 150cc Grand Prix's. Lasagna.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Sayonara Wild Hearts! This is a fun mix of auto runner and rhythm gameplay with an intense neon aesthetic. It was a pretty fun ride from start to finish and I'll be doing some score chasing for quite some time. It's only an hour long so play it!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Metal Bringer. This is a fast paced action roguelite where you control mechs to attempt to save the human race. The systems were a little excessive and there were some framerate issues but the mech building reminded me of Custom Robo which is always fun

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Nubby's Number Factory. This is a fun mix of Peggle and Balatro where you do whatever it takes to make the numbers go sky high. While I think the dev left quite a lot on the bone by not having achievements (yet) this is still a strong recommendation!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit The Butterfly Collector. I gotta be honest: I don't think I'd recommend this game to anyone. It is a gruesome visual novel about a misguided and terrible man who does awful things to a woman he kidnaps. Poor translation also hurts the story. Skip it.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Steampunch. I swear I'm not doing this on purpose but I platinumed this game before it even ended. Love the art style and the music. Platforming is fun and combat is unique with an interesting punching mechanic. Trophies are free. Come one come all.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit No One Can Stop Mr. Domino! I owned this one as a kid and it was so freaking tough. I'm happy to say I can put this domino pushing puzzler behind me. Save states and a guide were absolutely necessary for that last stage. Spoiler: I stopped Mr. Domino.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Chex Quest HD. Have you ever wanted to play Doom but as cereal? Well do I have the game for you. Not much in the way of challenge but still a fun romp for an hour. This is also a great way to get the Mascot bingo square since it is free. Yay Chex.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Penguin Flight. I went into this game expecting a fun little platformer and theoretically I got that but with the added "benefit" of a trophy popping every time I jumped. Yes it's one of those for the chievo perverts out there. It was a fun 15 minutes.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Air Combat! I had read some negative things about this game so I went in not expecting much but was surprisingly good for a PS1 launch title. I'm now down the rabbit hole of fighter jets which has me wishing I had joined the Air Force. I feel the need!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I can't believe I #justbeatit Strider Arcade. I figured I'd play an arcade game for my 1989 Great Scott square and let me tell you, I picked the wrong one. This game kinda blows. It is hard as hell and the movement and jumping feel terrible. I beat this on a plane.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit A Symmetric Escape. This is a fun first person puzzler that is all about symmetry! This one starts out easy but ramps up in a hurry. It's a nice little hidden gem and is a great choice for the @blinkoom.bsky.social square!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Westerado: Double Barreled! My good buddy @badtimesgt.bsky.social recommended this one a while back and hot dang it was a good'n. Not sure how he knew I'd take a shine to it though. Ah well. Mighty kind ah him either way. Yeehaw!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Batography for the "If everyone jumped off a cliff" square. This was a fun little game where you take photos to solve very simple puzzles. I loved the dark art style and it was short, sweet and free! Recommended!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Transistor! This was an absolute roller coaster of a game. I have so many thoughts and not nearly enough characters to express them. Please join me and my @indiequestpod.com co-hosts for our in-depth conversation!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit The Last Campfire! This was a solid puzzle adventure game that felt like a mix between Monument Valley and Zelda. The story was heartwarming and it was a very worthwhile playthrough. That's a good idea! bingo square down! Thanks @vayar.bsky.social!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Everlune. I was perusing the PS store as one does this evening and decided I'd try to find a game for the More Money for Scotch bingo square. Oh boy did I EVER find one. 19¢ for this MS Paint ass platformer that took 10 minutes to platinum. I did it.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Rocket Rats! This is my first Vampire Survivor like and I enjoyed myself immensely. I love the cartoony aesthetic. Not sure you can get credits in this but you do get a clear after 30 waves. Thanks to @bauske.bsky.social for the recommendation!
