Enemy | The Game that Jumped Me

Today we're playing Enemy, a game that appeared from nowhere to beat the hell out of me, and then kept doing it over and over again.

It's funny, you initially mocked the name, but considering just how hostile the game can be, as the video goes on, Enemy feels like quite the appropriate moniker for it.

Good point, it made itself in every conceivable way, my Enemy

This really feels like Playing at its best, giving such a complex, insightful analysis of a game basically no one would normally have ever heard of, and the game was an excellent pick with its odd vibe mixed with surprising mechanical complexity, which is really Playing's bread and butter like my favourites of Xenus, Brigand or Gangland The reveal of the game's actual soundtrack was also really well done, the rest of the soundtrack though desolate was weirdly soothing though Excellent end of year vid! And even though it might have been a tad later than you planned it for, it actually did merry up my day acting as a welcome break after being utterly tormented by a painfully hard Baldurs Gate 3 encounter, looking forward to whatever's next!

I love how you turned your final run into an epic tale. RIP Gus Slinger, Jack, Arthur and Carlos. Your sacrifices were not in vain.
