HBFG: Hit button feel good

This is how we are now going to say that it feels good to play a game. No more Crunchy, no more Kinesthetically Pleasing, no more Gamefeel.

Hit button, feel good.

HBFG.

Ideally when I am playing a videogame I will forget that buttons exist

you can be aware of the buttons you are pressing, or not aware of the buttons you are pressing, but it is still HBFG

it didn’t, i just think we need a change to something even more esoteric and insular

hey don’t look at me

nobody’s convinced me to move beyond Metroid-likes yet

don’t you only hit the button once and once only? VIOLENCE: ACTIVATE you say and you keep the murder-switch depressed

Pacman CE is HBFG even though you never hit buttons

I’ve watched enough streamers with very clickity-clackity controllers to know that a good d-pad/joystick is worth 4 buttons.

i like buttonhit way better because acronyms are awful except for FARTS because i made that one up and everything i come up with is hilarious and charming
