Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit A Short Hike! At first I didn't know how I felt about this game. It was more aimless than I expected. That only lasted a bit because dang what a cozy playthrough this was. It is one of those games that helps you appreciate the little things. Good game!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Star Wars: Racer Revenge! While this podracer is pretty fun and looks great for a PS2 game, not being able to decipher where the track was vs the out of bounds area got pretty annoying. Still we got that 1st place trophy and Jabba was pleased!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit The Joy of Putting! My good pal @potomax.bsky.social made this and dang did he ever do a good job. I'm not sure I've ever felt this much joy while putting before. The introduction of daily challenges will keep me coming back for sure!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit What Remains of Edith Finch (beaten by Fitgnat last episode cycle). This game has been talked about so much by so many of my friends (and @calebjross.com even wrote a book about it) but none of it prepared me for this. What a story! Must play!

#JustBeatIt @polykillpodcast.bsky.social No.11: Stories from Sol: The Gun-Dog (NSW). It shines with sharp writing, smart gameplay loops, and striking visuals. I would have liked a more conclusive ending though. Thanks to @captaindrachma.bsky.social from the @indiequestpod.com for the recommendation.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Donald Duck: Goin' Quackers on GBC! This is a very run of the mill Disney platformer but it is fun enough. It starts out very easy but the later stages test the player's skill level especially with the floaty jumps. All worth it for that Daisy smooch!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit The Jumping Cat. I truly had higher expectations for this game going in but it unfortunately ended up being a "pay $2 to get a platinum" game. I still played it for a half hour. Pretty meh. It came out in 2026 though and I'm on that PolyQuest grind!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit TMNT: Shredder's Revenge co-op with my son! I am not the biggest fan of beat em ups personally but gosh dang this is one quality game. So fun from start to finish and it doesn't overstay it's welcome at right around 2 hours. Great tunes too. Kowabunga!
January 12, 2026 at 3:13 AM
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit GlitchSPANKR! This is a first person...spanking game? Probably the first of its kind. There is so much more to this game than originally meets the eye. I cannot recommend it enough. Check it out if you like games similar to Conker's Bad Fur Day!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Drill Bird! Another banger hidden gem where you literally drill for hidden gems! It's a mixture of Steam World Dig and... Kirby I guess? Drill Bird is short and really cheap and comes highly recommended by me. Awesome, chill tunes too!
December 25, 2025 at 1:01 AM
Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Sir Noggin! What a hidden gem! This is a very fun retro style action platformer that has less than 10 reviews on Steam. Pretty easy from start to end but still highly recommended. Play this with a younger gamer and enjoy yourself for a couple hours!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Shatter! This is a fun Arkanoid clone with a few interesting twists like superb boss battles and outstanding music. This also just so happens to have come out in 2009 (18th birthday) which means I have officially gotten a bingo on all 3 boards!
