This is maybe a little off-topic, but a week or so ago Russ was asking for games that are similar to BotW and TotK. I wanted to highly recommend Lil Gator Game for The Resties, a 3-5 hour open world with a well-written story about nostalgia and growing up, and gameplay that unashamedly borrows from BotW a ton. It's a polished, concise, and cozy game that is also similar to A Short Hike if any of you played that. Sadly, Lil Gator Game went mostly unnoticed as it released late last year after all the game of the year discussions, so I hope it eventually gets the attention it deserves.

Thanks for this! Would love a note in honorable mentions (and here) when Dave the Diver finally arrives in the Nintendo eShop.

Dave! Hey Dave!

I remember this episode and thought it sounded rad. The game looks way more visually interesting than I expected.
