I have a few games that I would love to see speedruns of. I'm thinking of Insaniquarium, an aquarium simulator where you keep your fish alive and fight aliens, earning enough money to buy three egg pieces and end each level. Feeding Frenzy, a game where you play a variety of fish species and try to reach the top of the food chain by eating anything smaller than you. And lastly, an obscure game called Plantasia, that focuses on restoring and tending to gardens to gather enough pollen to complete each level.

[@jornb.3332]
