This game was made as a Christmas present for Derf by Santa Claus. If that sentence doesn't sound like something that already interests you then you should probably go play Derf's games too. This is easily the most artistic piece to come out of the Secret Santa event and manages to hold an incredible familiarity with Derf's own tones due to the surreal and chaotic environment within.
The game takes place over three different segments, each of which is entirely unique from the one before it. The first involves a simple minigame in which you are given a generous timer to enjoy yourself as much as possible, before being forced to watch it end against your will. The second involves a weird platforming trip through the snowfields, which is for me the most sorrowful moment of the game yet peaceful in its own right. Finally, the game ends with an easy avoidance that most people should be able to beat fairly simply, it has some pretty intense music to it that makes for a neat ending to the game.
Overall, I think this is a case of Santa Claus knowing exactly what to make for someone, and I'm glad it was made public for others to hopefully enjoy as well. Be sure to pet an extra one for me!

An incredible sequel to one of my favorite games. It's not perfect, in fact there was one specific gimmick I kinda loathed, but I was having peak enjoyment for the vast majority of the game so it would feel disingenuous to give it a lower rating.
Freezemind feels like you're playing a bunch of short games, each with different controls and aesthetics. It has incredible creativity, super fun boundry pushing gimmicks, a banger soundtrack, and of course the jaw dropping visuals Burnmind was known for. I can understand intellectually that this game is not for everyone, but I had such an incredible time playing it I refuse to say any thing except "I recommend this game to everyone ever". I don't want to sully the experience by putting any of the gimmicks to words. I love this game.

Really fun point and click style horror game. It's short but sweet, with some fun short platforming and simple puzzles. There are hints scattered around in a clever way I really appreciated. The game also manages to be legitimately creepy at times! I really enjoyed this, and it's an easy recommendation for a quick romp.

Despite having an excellent aesthetic and really well put together visuals, I unfortunately cannot recommend Scare at all, due to the extremely unpleasant nature of the gameplay. Some parts of it are passable, although in every stage there is little fear to be gained, as any scary sequence is broken up with annoyingly difficult generic needle, and boring flying spike traps. The places where the traps make an effort to follow the theming, i.e. monsters coming out of the walls, are cool, but 2/3 traps are just flying spikes or the like. Every stage had at least one, but often several screens that were awful to play, with segments that were way too precise (eye clock thing in the top left) or completely unintuitive (the multiple occasions where you suddenly need to use the mouse). The House stage, despite having incredible visuals and some legitimately creepy stuff, is abysmal to play, with every screen having unpleasant platforming and nonsense solutions to obstacles, as well as lots of needless downtime. The real lowpoint of the game is the bosses, which range from bad to worse. Some of them could be passed off as a generic and boring but acceptable fight. However the bottom two bosses were some of the least enjoyable fights I've played in a while. With a lot of inscrutable patterns and shitty rng, they're just awful grindfests. Additionally, there are a number of ear destroying sounds, such as a boss that starts every single attempt with an ear splitting screech. The House Girl boss was significantly harder than the rest, and also the least fun.
Ultimately, this game should not be played. It's unfortunate, because it looks so good, but the game design is very very bad.
