Blood machines. It's only a half hour cgi movie. But it hits super hard for me.

I thought a game like To The Moon would have been high up, but everyone has their own tastes.
Though, I will say, the sequel, Finding Paradise, is definitely worth it and is my choice. Even with the little bits of comedy and things that take away from the seriousness of the story, it's still an amazing story. Just as good as To The Moon, if you ask me.
Chappie might be borderline, but it goes so hard emotionally for a movie that basically had no critical reception.
I couldn't get past the crappy acting. It was like watching high schoolers try to make Tarantino dialogue work
Frisbee
Honestly, all of them.
Game: Who's Lila?
Film: Lake Mungo
Beat me to it. First thing to mind was Lake Mungo.
That scene with the dead Alice walking up to the camera really gets me every time I watch the movie. I guess because it subverts horror movie tropes. It's like an anti-jumpscare. And the photos in the end are a "good" downer.
Game no one's mentioned yet: Look Outside
So good and so strange
A game released in 2008 called Iji. At first glance, it seems like a simple platformer, but think again. It's an amazing blend of platforming and RPG mechanics. The game reacts to the decisions you make resulting in multiple endings.
Mine is music and the answer is essentially literally any Indy band that I like, I like WAY more than any mainstream artist.
but like I have several Indy bands that do different styles, so I don't know what my actual taste is.
here's my recent plays if anyone wants to tell me :)
The game I wanted to say was already said, so I'll go with a movie! The 2018 Korean film "Burning".

Adastra.
I'm still infatuated with that dumb wolf. 😩
What does hit hard mean? Does it have to be emotionally impactful? Is positively surprised enough?
- Sheepy has great atmosphere (free)
- Halloween Hidden Capybaras with Orange and Pumpkins has great atmosphere, looks great (free)
I remember a game I played a long time ago touched me, but I can't find my review of it.
I found the VR title Surge was great, but it doesn't seem to be available in the Steam store anymore. I sat down and watched and looked around, and the music and visuals had great impact.
