  1. Souldiers is my pixel art of the year for me.
    I can't wait to get the physical release in february 2023, such a great game.
    Next pixel-art I'm waiting for the next year are The Last Faith, Blasphemous 2 and Sea of Stars now.

  2. My top pixel art games of 2022: Chained ehoes, kynseed, souldiers, anno: mutationem, The Tarnishing of Juxtia, no place fo bravery, there is no light, Unsighted, eastward, Jack move, tmnt shredder revenger, moonscars, death,s gambit: afterlife – improved and improved version, the game really became better. .

    You could write some more games that were shown in the video, but they are in early access. I don't think so for a full-fledged 2022 release.

  3. may try out Anno: mutationem
    i do love pixel art games, and i did play a number of pixel art themes also.. my only problem is when they use genres i disown the existence of with them. not too big of a fan about the side scroller system, but still the cyberpunk setting looks nice! i'll go check a copy.. should be out now! who knows .. may even add it as another let's play project!

  4. Love your channel! It's all I want to know, explicit, straight to the point, well organized and so on. Would be nice also to cover with some lists deals when deals periods comes

  5. I'm in love with chained echoes, I can't stop playing it! So many other games on this list I NEED to play soon: anno, kyneseed, song of conquest. I'm also sad that I don't really enjoy rogue lites so that limits the pool for me

  6. One entry I personally loved but you likely couldn't mention because it's a NSFW game is "Memoirs of a battle brothel". It's actually a love-letter to Shadowrun with lots of role-playing and a solid tried and tested battle system. Also, despite the obvious adult themes, the game can be finished without a single lewd scene playing.

  7. Another pixel art game that seems to have gone under the radar is Overloop from August: not one of the prettiest games, definitely going for the big-pixel minimalist look, but it's a very underrated puzzle platformer about cloning yourself.

    Edit: And Haiku the Robot! That game released this year as well!

  8. Hey, I noticed just in this video I skipped into it and caught you saying "..is awesome" in the exact same pitch and way 3 times, lol. Maybe try to use synonyms?

  9. very beautiful titles through out the year, thank you very much for making me rediscover pixel art games again and enjoy it to the fullest, can't wait to get to the games I already have on my wishlist

  10. Does the pixelated stylr appeal to younger people because BITD it was an aesthetic byproduct of tech limitation but these days it seems superfluous in the indie scene. Some of these games do ooze pleasant visuals don't get me wrong

  11. December has been the coolest month so far. Giving us dwarf fortress, kynseed and chained echoes.
    Right now focusing on kynseed. Already ruined my sleep schedule and doing like shit at work bc lack of sleep. Worth it! (Not really)
