get ready for a borderline advertisement because i really love this game(s) and i think that if everybody here likes things nice and simple like i do, then it's worth talking about
for those out of the loop, UFO 50 is a collection of 50 games by the Spelunky developers made for a fictional console/computer called the LX, which is somewhere between a Famicom and an Amiga. the games are not only good as hell, taking all the good parts about games from that era and resurrecting them with modern sensibilities, but the variety is the cherry on top. UFO 50 contains just about every genre i can think of, from a horror point-and-click to a roguelike deckbuilder to a golf-based RPG. it's also $25 for 50 games, so that's nice too
now that the context is done, i'd love to know if anybody else has played it and what their thoughts on it are!
