>>47645055Ice Path was a pain when I was a kid as I recall, but looking at the art now it's so nice and wholesome. I haven't played any game to completion since the DS era, and I haven't even bothered picking up the Switch games since getting one.
The beauty of a good sprite-based world in its simplicity is admirable and at the time of GSC being current you think nothing of it but flash forward another 15 years and these screenshots signal good times. Trips to the grocery store waiting and long car rides are what I think of with it, and I guess atmoshere and dungeon design is a big part of that. Same with Sprout Tower, whether they're "good" I can't say as much but they're certainly memorable.
I love Swinub so much, and Spheal later from Gen 3. Cute Ice types are some of my favorites.
