My pick this weekend is Brotato (Proton).
It's one of the many Vampire Survivors-alikes that popped up once that game popularised the genre, and is my favourite of those. As with its inspiration, you fire automatically, and so only need to concern yourself with movement, picking up items, and choosing power-ups at the end of every wave. It sees a potato soldier stranded and surrounded by aliens, and he has to ward them off until help arrives - it's full of personality, and I think I might actually like it slightly better than Vampire Survivors.
I've unlocked a lot of different characters by now, but haven't had the chance to try them all out yet, so that'll be my focus this weekend.

GOD DAMMIT PENGLING!.......
Funnily enough thats a Atari 2600 game that ive never heard off....... I will have to look into that one..... Though I have something else planned for next week......
That still looks more like sperm than hands.......
GOD DAMMIT PENGLING x2........
Ive totally
stolenborrowed that image and will use it for this years Christmas card......Did what???...... Thats an unedited image from Formula One 05.... I swear.......
OperationMission Vileaf. I don't remember that I've ever seen any/read anything Smurfs related at all, although I own a copy of the Smurfs SNES game. It's a colect-a-thon with infinite lifes and the healing mechanic is fun. What is not fun is that some of the jumping has a weird difficulty curve, e.g. when the floating jump baloons first appear in Wild's domain and that it has no map which makes it really tedious to go back to collect everything after the required gadget addons are unlocked.Probably the one with the guns… directly under the 10………………
See, I added several of the … extra for you.

Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes] - I'm back on my bullshit again. Uzuki arc was fun, but when it comes time for bracket I gotta lock in. And by lock in, I mean still play like a clown.
Splatoon 3 - Didn't have too much time to practice this week, but had one good session. Really trying to work on more actionable callouts, coordinating with our specials and planning a push together rather than merely announcing things after they happen.
Persona 4 Golden - Still just post-Kanji dungeon. At the rate I am going I will finish this game... someday.
Summon Night: Swordcraft Story - Man, forgot how annoying it was that you have to always go for weapon breaks against bosses or else you miss their blueprint forever. Also, RHDN shutdown has me wondering, if/when the third game's translation patch ever gets finished, where do I even look to find out about it?
Slay the Spire - I can quit any time I want, I swear.
Mahjong Soul/Riichi City/IRL mahjong - Came dangerously close to losing my Master 1 rank on Soul, but got a few wins so I'm safeish now. I know I'm too reckless and I'm trying to work on that. I did play one of the best games I've had at club this week, had the discipline to fold several tempting hands and it turned out to be correct every time. Sometimes protecting second place through smart play is more satisfying than lucking into first.

That little guy there, firing the yellow lightning-bolt. (Also, it's easy to tell the aliens apart from the potatoes - the aliens are all different shades of purple, and the potatoes aren't!)
Heheheh.
Yes. That's what all of Brotato's playable characters are.
The link I posted'll take you to it - it's a modern homebrew title.
You have a very strange perception of what things look like, my friend.
I'm sure you mean "Super Goddamnit Pengling R", Spider.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Feel free, that's made my day!
Totally.
And nobody will ever figure out the mystery of how you came to own it!
That's what they all say.
