What Is This?

Just Good Games is an independent resource to keep you up to date on the latest indie hits that might have flown under your radar. A curated newsletter with impressions and reviews for the latest little-known games. That's not to say I won't ever write about big budget AAA games, especially if it's an end of year article like a top-ten list. It will be mostly indies most of the time though.

Who Are you?

I'm Kyle, or Finlopes. I love video games. I grew up playing mostly PC games and developed a taste for smaller indie games when the genre started to blow up in the late 2000s / early 2010s. Besides indies, I also love survival horror, Clock Tower, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Fatal Frame, any and all of it.

Where are the early access games?

In my library but not on my website. I think there's a lot of great early access games out there, and some of them I might even write about if I think they're good enough, but as a general rule I try to wait until they're fully released.

How do you feel about AI generated content in games?

It's a murky situation. Creatively speaking, AI will always create a worse result than if a human made something. That being said, I dabble in a lot of indie games, some made by solo developers. We can't all be the Stardew Valley guy; I don't think a person should be penalised if they make the majority of a game themselves and generate a few AI assets in order to let them focus on more important areas. Of course, games where AI generated content is plastered all over the place aren't likely to ever show up on this blog.
