School has taken up most of my “gaming time” so I haven’t done much of it. The most recent game I have played is Fields Of Mistria which is like Stardew Valley but with a 90s anime aesthetic and magic. It’s in early access on steam and it’s really fun. I also of course have been playing Stardew valley, especially since the new update recently came out for switch, and Mario Kart 8DX. Once the semester is over I will play Disco Elysium and some other games I have yet to start. I don’t really have a favourite genre except I seem to gravitate towards fantasy and life type games I guess. Chill games with things to do, expect Mario kart is anything but chill. I also like Zelda.

There is only one game I am looking forward to but there has been no clear release date: Haunted Chocolatier, which is made by the same guy who created Stardew, ConcernedApe.

I hope one day I can get a steam deck so I can play all my games away from my computer. I actually prefer handheld and I think I’d play more game if I had the means.

Tbh, I won't have much gaming time left with my new upcoming job with FedEx. And yeah, I'm also gravitating toward "cozy games," which is what you seem to describe. Take care. Also, damn, I want Haunted Chocolatier. Fields of Mistria is another good "cozy game." And play the new Zelda game; it's the best one in a while, better than Tears of the Kingdom (which isn't saying much).
