I think this applies to all the mainline Rayman games, as well as Origins and Legends πŸ’βœ¨ But the aesthetic feel of Rayman 2 is very special. Sort of murky fairytale:esque haha

The games has in part inspired ideas to use video games and their multifacetted form as a sort of interactive essay! I will go deeper into what I mean by this further along, and once I do, would love to correspond with other thoughts and reflections about the possibility of video game interaction! 🌈

Wahoo every1! As a wee sprout I played both Klonoa 1 and 2 πŸƒπŸƒπŸƒ
I got the Remasters for the Switch for a cheap price so I will try and spend some free time looking into them again, joy! I find them facinating as cute platformers that narratively explore circumnstances of life, dreams and emotions! 🌟✨

This makes me curious about what beat’em ups u enjoy Bog! I have only played the Scott Pilgrim game ”seriously” way back on the PS3 and tried out a handful of others, albeit minimally. Do u have any recommendations that u respect and consider worthwhile?
