Shovel Knight 

A game reminiscent of retro Mega Man, Castlevania, and Legend of Zelda franchises. Also the very first video game from indie development studio Yacht Club Games .

Compared to other popular (and mildly controversial) indie games such as Undertale, its fanbase is a bit small, but it's still a hit among experienced gamers looking for a fresh batch of nostalgia. It's described as a sweeping action adventure game with breathtaking gameplay and unforgettably unique characters.

The lead character, Shovel Knight, is a bit of an oddity among heroes, brandishing a shovel as a weapon instead of swords or bows. One thing's for sure; he's come far in the gaming world, having been nominated for several awards (including the BAFTA Games Award for Debut Games) and named a 'modern classic'.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
