A Hat in Time 

Inspired by Super Mario Sunshine, Banjo Kazooie and other games alike, it is an adorable 3D platformer collect-a-thon game starring a cute and underage space-travelling hat-wearing child named Hat Kid, who was on her way back home when she her spaceship fuels called Time Pieces are lost and scattered on a nearby unknown planet with many interesting characters. She then must collect all of the Time Pieces all over the planet to get back home...

A Hat in Time began as a kickstarter game developed using Unreal Engine 3 on 2013 and has become the biggest kickstarter-funded indie 3D-platformer game, reaching almost 1000% of its original kickstarter goal! Several composers make music for these game and voice actors, including the famous JonTron, lend their voices to the characters of the game. It has received overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics and was described as 'the only kickstarter game that is actually good'.

I have played many 3D platformers in 2017, and the ones that came close to being my number one favourite game are Super Mario Odyssey and A Hat in Time.

After playing through them and getting 100% completion in both of them, I have come to conclude...

...that Sonic Forces is the best game of 2017.
