Found the top ten list tricky this year - there's a huge pool of excellent things I'd fill out 20-11 with. We skipped honourable mentions (the episode was long enough as is) but would have shown some love for Old Skies, Strange Jigsaws, Chronoquartz, The Drifter, Mario Kart World and Bionic Bay.

Fini Chronoquartz (avec la bonne fin) ! Je l'avais comparé à un Animal Well sans la plateforme. En fait, c'est beaucoup plus un Outer Wilds en pixel art, et c'est vraiment très cool. Meilleur puzzle game de l'année pour moi. Par un solo dev Français en plus :) store.steampowered.com/app/3275880/...

Second Steam haul. Someone stop me!! These sales are too good.

Excellent moment passé sur le très astucieux #Chronoquartz ! Compter environ 5h (très bien rythmées !) pour arriver à la première fin. Curieux de voir si je vais trouver comment débloquer la "vraie" fin... J'ai quelques indices qui traînent, mais j'avoue que pour le moment, je ne vois pas.

Not always in tune with Jason's recommendations (Blue Prince ☠️), but this time I must agree: very neat and chill puzzle/exploration game. It reminds me of Animal Well (without the platform aspect). There's a free demo on Steam. Give it a try! Congrats to @infinitestairs.bsky.social 👏

If you’re into metroidbrainias, here’s a rec you probably haven’t heard before: Chronoquartz, a time-loop game in which you make progress by gaining knowledge and solving some very clever puzzles. Takes maybe 5 hours to beat and is well worth the time store.steampowered.com/app/3275880/...

Finally got my first negative review! #chronoquartz #indiegame #steam

Hi everyone! I’m a solo #indiegame dev, and I’m happy to join Bluesky. My latest game is Super Drift Blade, a time-loop & knowledge-locked adventure. Nice to meet you all!

New Steam bundle that unite Chronoquartz with Super Drift Blade! Another puzzle game with time-loop craziness 😉, but this time with roguelite mechanics on top.

December Schedule! (My Affiliate Anniversary approaches) We're hitting my quirky puzzle game backlog including Gorogoa and Chronoquartz! We're also going to be playing Risk of Rayn 2 with @puddingpie.net ! Hope to see you around (mostly because Chicago winter has me stuck inside)~💜

Finished playing Chronoquartz by @infinitestairs.bsky.social - such a joy. Time loop puzzle adventure, with some absolutely delightful puzzles. All-ages appropriate, if you want to play with your kid, it is wonderful for that too. store.steampowered.com/app/3275880/...
