Rufus The Rat 🐭🔞🌈

Every time I see Klumpy, I read his dialogue in my best Arinhanson Gamegrumps voice. I simply can't help it. 👾: Mina the Hollower (2026) 🎮: PC / Xbox / Playstation / Switch

I didn't realize how many visual options Mina has, already baked into the base game?! My poor little gamer heart is a sucker for the Game-Boy-esque monochrome green 💚 👾: Mina the Hollower (2026) 🎮: PC / Xbox / Playstation / Switch

You asked for the derp, @flynnrausch.bsky.social, and I found it. 🤡

Not only does our batty villain have a good challenging boss fight, but he and Mina ALSO have fun combat banter that makes reference to what kinds of animal they both are? *chefs kiss* 🐁🦇⚔️ 👾: Mina The Hollower (2026) 🎮: PC / Xbox / Playstation / Switch

Incredible sound design in scenes like this. The humming insects genuinely feel like part of the song. 👾: Kentucky Route Zero (2013) 🎮: PC / Xbox / Playstation / Nintendo Switch / iOS / Android

I may not be a religious person, but these gospel vignettes from Kentucky Route Zero still give me goosebumps. Bedquilt Ramblers FTW 🐴✨🍃 👾: Kentucky Route Zero (2013) 🎮: Xbox / Playstation / Nintendo Switch / iOS / Android

Twilight Princess's title screen was already a banger in 2006, but this HD texture pack (with option for 4K) really takes it to the next level 🐺🗡️✨ 👾: Zelda: Twilight Princess (2006) 🎮: PC (Unofficial “Dusk” Port by Twilit Realm) 🖼️: 4K Texture Pack by Henrico Magnifico

Aaaaand now we have HD textures in the Twilight Princess PC port as well! 👾✨ Because it's been so long since I played TP, I'd forgotten what a strong opening scene these two have. Midna's lines have SO much personality, and Link is SO not in the mood for her shit. 😂

Great news for retro 3D Zelda fans: a new recomp / unofficial PC port just dropped, and this time its for Twilight Princess! The 1.0 version newly released, and has support for Windows, MacOS, Android and Linux (incl. Steam Deck). 👾: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess 🎮: PC (Dusk Port, 2026)

Didn't know I could be jump scared by a save screen. Thanks for the nightmares, Simogo 😵‍💫 👾: Lorelei and the Laser Eyes (2024) 🎮: PC / Playstation / Switch

Do you remember ť̴͍h̸̜͕̹̉̀̈́è̸͍̤̭͘ ̷̭̰̐m̴̟̥͍͋a̸̙͑͝͠z̵̻͛e̴̟̠͚̔̎?̴͓͌͝ ̶̡̥͗͛ 👾: Lorelei and the Laser Eyes (2024) 🎮: Playstation / Nintendo Switch / PC

If you've ever thought "what would it be like if Vampire Survivors had gameplay like Slay The Spire?" then boy, do I have terrible news for your free time. 👾: Vampire Crawlers Demo (2026) 🎮: Switch / Xbox / Playstation / PC

It's crazy how well Jak & Daxter holds up with modern QOL tweaks. Look at these colors! Look at the little "victory dance" our heroes do when they grab a thingmabob! Just... *chefs kiss* 🦦🥽✨ 👾: Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy (2001) 🎮: PC (Unofficial OpenGOAL Port)

#RufusRecommends: Good news for Jak & Daxter fans! The entire Jak trilogy has been given a recompiled, native-PC port. Improved frame rates, widescreen, and probably the most faithful way to play these PS2 classics. 👾: Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy (2001) 🎮: PC (Unofficial OpenGOAL Port)

I am once again in the clutches of Sekiro. Sayonara Blazing Bull 🐂🔥🐺⚔️✨ 👾: Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (2019) 🎮: Playstation / Xbox / PC

My fav thing about BALLxPIT is just how busted and insane some of the active balls can become. What do you MEAN it only took me (approx) 10 seconds to defeat the Lord of Owls once the first hit landed?! 😱💥 👾: BALLxPIT (2025) 🎮: Nintendo / Xbox / Playstation / PC

Rhythm Doctor is a game about counting to seven, and it only has one button... how hard could it be? 😵‍💫🎶 👾: Rhythm Doctor (2025) 🎮: Xbox and PC (Steam / Itch.io)

Any Starfox 64 fans should take a look at the Wild Blue Skies demo on Steam. This game retains the “Sat-AM Cartoon” vibe that I feel SF64 uniquely had. I mean c'mon... "jumping the shark" and "up to my gills?" *chefs kiss* 🦊🚀👾 👾: Wild Blue Skies (demo, $0) 🎮: PC / Steam (Next Fest)

Little man wants to be Ganondorf so badly, but he's actually Skull Kid 😭 👾: Lil Gator Game: In The Dark (2026 DLC) 🎮: PC / Switch / Playstation / Xbox

Every time this little shithead is on screen, he steals the show I stg 😂🐷💕 👾: Lil Gator Game: In The Dark (2026 DLC) 🎮: PC / Switch / Playstation / Xbox

Kind of crazy how the best 2D Sonic game of the past 5 years stars an Italian man named Peppino Spaghetti 🤔 Side note: it feels like it should be illegal for the soundtrack to go this hard. Y'all ready to get funky? 😎🍕🎶 👾: Pizza Tower (2023) 🎮: PC / Switch

The late-game puzzles in TUNIC feel less like a Zelda clone and instead feel like I'm playing Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. It never quite reaches "solve the soup cans" levels of obtuse, but wow do these puzzles get tough 😱 👾: TUNIC (2022) 🎮: PC / Xbox / Playstation / Switch

We now have *ANOTHER* beloved N64 classic getting an unofficial PC port for Windows, Mac and Linux! 😱 The bear and bird are BACK, bay-bee! 👾: Banjo-Recompiled (PC Port; Unofficial) 🎮: PC / MacOS / Linux

I'm glad that the Hero of Time had enough idle space in his epic quest to help this aspiring Hylian actor discover his fursona. 👾: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 🎮: N64 (1998) 🖥️: Ship of Harkinian PC Port / OoT Reloaded Texture Pack

Good news for retro game fans! The team who created excellent PC ports of the N64 Zeldas have a new port of Super Mario 64 called "Ghostship!" It supports higher frame rates, widescreen, and hi-res texture packs! 👾: Super Mario 64 ("Ghostship" port) 🎮: Windows / MacOS / Linux / Steam Deck

Karmelita may be serving full cunt… but Hornet slays harder 🕷️🪡✨ 👾: Hollow Knight: Silksong 🎮: PC / Xbox / Playstation / Switch

Trobbio stop being dramatic challenge: impossible edition. 👾: Hollow Knight: Silksong (2025) 🎮: PC / Playstation / Xbox / Switch

COMPLETELY understandable 😂 I strangely find that anxiety (in certain games) very addictive and fun -- but I'm very picky about which ones. Strangely, the game that made me want to try Sekiro is this indie game called FURI I got on Steam sale last year.

Oh no, you guys... I think I like Sekiro... 🐺⚔️✨ 👾: Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (2019) 🎮: PC / Playstation / Xbox

I think this may be the most powerful Silksong boss, guys. Not only can she totally kick my ass, but she can also serve cunt at the same time. 🐜💅⚔️✨ 👾: Hollow Knight: Silksong (2025) 🎮: PC / Playstation / Xbox / Switch

It’s that time of year, folks! Sing it with me! (To the tune of Good King Wenceslas): fa-ri-doo-la-see-ma-net da-na-fo-su-lo-bon, do-ni-pwa-nah-vo-li-net da-na-fo-su-lo-bon, pi-nah-so-mi-ma-ni-set da-na-fo-su-lo-bon, fa-ri-doo-la-see-ma-net da-na-fo-su-lo-oooo-booon! 🔔🪡✨

It's over...! I never have to look at this damn frog again 🤬 👾: Hollow Knight: Silksong (2025) 🎮: PC / Switch / Playstation / Xbox

I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE, EMIL ♥️🏳️‍🌈 👾: NieR: Replicant (2021) 🎮: PC / PS4 / Xbox

This may be the fastest I've ever defeated a boss in any videogame 😅 All my balls got stuck on the back wall and melted the health bar so fast that I nearly didn't see what happened 😱 👾: BALL x PIT (2025) 🎮: PC / Switch / PS5 / Xbox

I think I’m fully trapped in this game’s clutches, you guys. Very arcadey and addictive. 👾: BALL x PIT 🎮: Switch / Xbox / Playstation / Steam

I know Megabonk is the current Survivors-like indie darling, but may I submit for the jury: BALL x PIT. It combines the classic Breakout (1976) with the Vampire Survivors formula in a way that’s REALLY interesting 👀 👾: BALL x PIT (demo) 🎮: Steam / PC

Picked up Owlboy on a Steam sale ($4), and I booted it up just to make sure it runs ok. I was completely blindsided by this title screen! 😱 Music that sounds like Kingdom Hearts, and pixel art that rivals Sea of Stars 🎨🖌️🎶 👾: Owlboy (2016) 🎮: PS4 / Xbox / Switch / PC

Now, some may be thinking “Rufus, this is just a simple [noun]-sona word swap joke. What makes this joke so special?" This continued dialogue from Louis turned this mid-tier furry joke into an S-tier joke, easily. Happy Halloween, furfags 🎃🐲🌈 👾: Look Outside (2025) 🎮: PC / Steam

Lurking in the fandom since 2004 (and an active participant in it since 2010) means I’ve seen a lot of low-effort furry jokes that are just cringey and unfunny. Look Outside’s furry jokes, on the other hand, are MUCH better. 🐉✨ 👾: Look Outside (2025) 🎮: PC / Steam

THIS DIVA ISN'T EVEN REALLY DEAD LOL 🤣

Sigh... okay. Which one of you told the theatre-kid he could have his own boss fight? He can't even die properly without over-acting it, jfc 🙄 👾: Hollow Knight: Silksong (2025) 🎮: PC / Steam

I've only known this character 10 seconds and I would already die for them 😭💕 #Silksong

24 hrs left til Silksong got me like 💀

If you described a game to me as a cross between Shadow of the Colossus, a 3D hack-and-slash action RPG, and an twin-stick shoot-em-up game, I’d tell you that sounds awful. And yet… 😱👻🤖 👾: NieR: Replicant (2021 Remake) 🎮: PC / Steam

Aaaaaand, there's the Traitor Lord packed up! 🪲⚔️✨ Playing through this game again has really helped me remember how well designed the combat is. 👾: Hollow Knight (2017) 🎮: PC / Steam

POV: It’s 1997. You’re doing the advanced route of Starfox 64 and living out your childhood fantasy of being uh... "co-pilots" (👀) with Starfox and Falco… and then some FELINE FLOOZY has to come and RUIN it 🤬🦊🐦🚀 👾: Starfox 64 🎮: PC / Steam Deck

PACK IT UP NIGHTMARE GRIFT!!! 🦗🔥🎭⚔️✨🪲 See you at our rematch, you hot topic, theatre-kid hasbeen! 🤬 👾: Hollow Knight 🎮: PC / Steam Deck

Shaking the dust off my shell in preparation for Silksong🕸️🕷️🐜🪡✨ 👾: Hollow Knight (2017) 🎮: PC / Steam Deck

POV: It’s 1997 and you wanted to know what would happen if you flew through all the fancy rings before the checkpoint ring in the Asteroid Field 😱🪐☄️✨

The team behind the Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask PC ports have recently done a Starfox 64 port that's newly compatible on Steam Deck. As a furry who's into retro games, I cannot imagine something more deserving of my afternoon's attention. Let's rock & roll! 🦊🦚🐰🐸🚀✨🌌

The parry mechanic a long time to get used to, but damn does it feel good when you get good at it ⚔️🔥 👾: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (2025) 🎮: PC / Steam Deck (Not pictured: the dozens of times I attempted this and didn't make it past a single round 💀)

And there's the second Balatro win in the bag?! 😱🃏🔥💰

There's no dopamine-hit quite like clearing a single blind in Balatro with only one hand 🃏🔥✨ #Balatro #NumberGoUp

Replaying the first Death Stranding has been strangely comforting in 2025, especially considering all of the, uh... #whoops
