Best GTs of 2018-2019?

Please forgive me, mods, if this isn't the right place. Several boards seemed applicable -- this one the most.

Hey guys! Idk if you remember me (Marek and Sergio might), but I showed up a few years ago to play a bunch of your games for a Youtube video or two, which turned out fairly well despite my inexperience. I've been out of action for a while now thanks to life, but recently I started seeing some traction (I'm not too far off hitting my first 10k video) so I can't see any reason to stall any further aha

This place always struck me as THE place for experimental/weird/art games. Sure, I could crawl through Gamejolt and Itchio, and I probably will, but one of my favourite videos is the Glorious Trainwrecks-focused one, so I'd love to do a follow up.

I was wondering what you would consider your favourite games posted here in the past year or two? I'm going to check out a few at random myself, but it ruins the surprise if I play too much (and screenshots aren't always the best thing to judge by). I'm looking for the particularly atmospheric, deranged and/or bite-sized but effective.

Naturally you can expect positive criticism and an open mind. I prefer to showcase weird games to raise awareness of creativity rather than to mock. Might have a giggle at some glitches, tho.

Merry belated holidays!
Sorry this is so late! My December ended up being much busier than I expected and I ended up completely scrapping my first attempt (I am so out of touch with unity :P)

Regardless! I hope you enjoy this little puzzle bite.

KNYTT SWAPSIES II

Etc/GMT-4

Begin a Knytt Story for a week. Finish another Knytt Story for a week. The classic formula to Knytt Swapsies.

This is scheduled way off in the future (right now is April 3rd) as not to butt heads with the Rosetta Stone Game Jam, but hey, if you're interested, feel free to sign up. First part runs from May 25th to June 1st, and second part runs from June 1st to June 8th.

For further information, refer to this edited version of sergio's plan from the original Knytt Swapsies:

WEEK ONE IS GO WEEK TWO IS BEGIN!

Week 1 - 2018/5/25-2018/6/1
Participants work on levels. They get half-completed, then uploaded to this event in the comments. Or you can just keep it private, in which case it will be your responsibility to send it to the next person.

Week 2 - 2018/6/1-2018/6/8
Levels are randomly allocated to participants (through random.org). They get finished off, and submitted to this event as games.

Tips

  • All skill levels and aesthetics are welcome! Seeing little relaxation zones transition into sprawling wallswim-ridden glitchscapes will probably be part of the fun (but matching tone is just as appreciated).
  • Knytt Stories mods (KS+, KS Ex, etc.) and custom assets are very much allowed!
  • Try to use less than 12 characters for the author field when creating your level, as there should be room for two and Knytt Stories only displays the first 25 characters.
  • In week 2, add your author credit by putting " & [yourname]" after the existing author. You'll need to edit the folder name and the Author field in World.ini, and you could put more detailed credits in Info.png if you want.

And hey, maybe I'll participate in this too.
