Game 13: Fighting Vipers 2 [Jan2024[Xbox✨]) 👌🏼

Fighting Vipers 2 played through Like A Dragon Gaiden on Game Pass https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/like-a-dragon-gaiden-the-man-who-erased-his-name/9pcmwndppbfz
There is something just popping to Fighting Vipers 2 that just isn't really present in other fighters of it's nature. It has more style, flair, and substance to it's character design that just really helps it stand out. Each character looks neat and interesting at a glance, and they feel and play different enough to keep fights interesting. While I have not personally played the first Fighting Vipers, it does feel like it's a step up in terms of gameplay and working kinks out of it's original game. Simply put, Fighting Vipers 2 is kinda just charming. While I can't say the gameplay is super in-depth, or character balance works; I can at least say that it feels good. Fights are quick and bursting with combos, juggling, and recovery options. The fact that at any given time nearly half your health bar can be wiped out with a good juggle can make for some really neat come backs. Cool slow downs happen when you land a particularly powerful move, or even breaks the stage if you beat them enough. Music is consistently pumping your ears with intense fighting vibes, and each stage feels vibrant enough to at least latch to your memory. All that said, Fighting Vipers 2 kinda just belongs in an arcade to play as a fun one off thing rather than be a center piece to any fighting game night. There just isn't much the game does well enough to really captivate people to play due to how sluggish and luck based it can seem to be. Top that off with other fighting games simply making combat more interesting and control better lends this game to fall to obscurity. While I certainly don't think Fighting Vipers 2 is anything that amazing, I would say it deserves to at least be remembered for making it's type of fighting games feel more appealing.

Game 14: Skinner & The Superintendent (Jan2024[Homebrew☄️]) 👌🏼

It's a fun parody game of the short based on the Season 7 episode "22 Short Films About Springfield". It's basically Steam Hams, but a video game, but it's also a pretty barebones little choose our own adventure game. It even comes with different endings, and a mini game based on another short. I came for a parody, and I got more than I thought, and honestly I just think that's really neat.
