The most innovative games of 2024
🕑 Added 2025-01-13 13:08:00 +0000 UTCHey all!
As you might know, I like to end the year with a video about "the most innovative game" of the last 12 months. So I've analysed games like Her Story, Baba Is You, The Forgotten City, and Jusant.
But you might also know that in November of 2024, I released my first proper video game on Steam: Mind Over Magnet. Which was amazing, exciting, and... utterly exhausting!
Once the game was done I had to tap out and take a big break from all of GMTK - which meant I wasn't able to do a new entry in the "most innovative" series. Sorry!
Thankfully I'm now back, well rested, and ready to make new videos. I'm working on the first GMTK episode of 2025, and I'm starting other new projects as well. I feel like this is going to be a very good year for the channel!
But I also didn't want to start the year with that missed video hanging over my head... So how about this?
I've picked ten games from 2024 that were innovative and inventive. Games that I might have picked as the most innovative of the year. And with a few sentences about what made that game so unique.
Hope that makes up for the missing video!

Thanks for sharing! The list is very helpful, but the thing I enjoy most of the "most innovative game" videos is hearing/reading Mark rave about a game. I'm looking forward to the next weekndr video.

I'm curious, is there a reason why the list is exclusive to Substack? It feels odd since it could fit on Patreon just as well.
