Appreciate the Madvent 5 dev team for continuing this mad event. It's no small feat to organize and ship on time!
Since I didn't Direct this round, I'm excited I get to dive into a Madvent mostly blind!

So, I don't really get the GOTY thing
Yes please talk of good notable games, but to pick just ONE "best" is so arbitrary feeling to me
So much of games & art are subjective. Everyone's tastes are different. I feel that's part of what makes us INTERESTING. Just my smelly opinion. Anyways vote for me.

People in the @hauntedps1.bsky.social community have banded together to resurrect and release yet another Madvent Calendar for December 2025
Open a door every day and play a little weirdass thing someone in the community made. It’s one of my favorite Dec traditions

Lumines Arise is out today and it's taking every fiber of my being to not dislodge my jaw and devour it whole. Tetsuya Mizuguchi and Enhance does some of the best audio visual gameplay juice in games, period.
