For: I Wanna Usurp the Celestial Jump
My first game on a not-YoSniper engine. I was still getting used to what was possible with the physics so there are a few more skips than I intended, but I still consider this game one of the high points in my body of work in terms of the final product. I don't have much to say about it aside from that.

Name explanation: It's referring to the God of All Jumps, an important figure in my heartwrenching and ongoing storyline.

For: I wanna obtain the Aqua Volans Per Aeram
I don't even remember making this game that well. I think I did the entire thing starting at 2 AM and finishing at 5 or 6 AM. Suffice it to say, I did not put a whole lot of effort in. The soundtrack's good, but the idea of a game that is just a single escape sequence isn't really since it doesn't build up to anything. I'm still kind of amused by the ending though.

Name explanation: Aqua Volans Per Aeram are some Latin words that refer to the Philosopher's Stone. I don't know exactly what they mean. It has no relation to the game at all.

For: I wanna deracinate the Walls of Theodosius II
My fifth "real" game, although it's of the single boss variety. I'm still very attached to the jump refreshers in a boss concept, but in retrospect this execution of it could have been a lot better. I still think the atmosphere is pretty top-notch even though a lot of it was rehashed from resources I already had laying around.

Name explanation: The painting used as the boss is a fairly famous one of Mehmed II, the Ottoman sultan who finally conquered Constantinople. To deracinate is to tear something up by the roots. The Theodosian walls were erected before Constantine took residence in the city and were already in ruin before the Ottomans attacked, but I liked the name anyway. Please forgive me for the historical inaccuracy.

For: I wanna conceptualize the Omnitruncated Tesseract
Made for YoSniper's 2014 game contest. There were a few rules necessitating silly things like the inclusion of a pie, but the most significant thing about them was that I couldn't use jump refreshers. The core conceit of game was repeating the basic layout of each screen multiple times and changing the player's path through them with each iteration. No one seemed to notice that in particular and it probably ended up being too long for most people's tastes, but I'm still pretty proud of it in general, and of the unlockable extra area in particular.

Name explanation: An omnitruncated tesseract (also known as a great disprismatotesseractihexadecachoron) is a runcination of a regular tesseract, which is a shape one dimension above a cube (similarly to how a cube is one dimension above a square.) People took this to mean the the teleporter gimmick was the titular object, but that was unintentional. I had just been thinking a lot about them at the time.
