For me it's first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they're open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that's stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

I miss classic arcade style games and puzzles.

I want more games like Resogun and Geometry Wars. And I'd love to see more of Archer Maclean's Mercury.

Have you tried Nex Machina? By the same devs as Resogun, and it's great no-nonsense arcade gameplay. Assault Android Cactus is another game of that type I really enjoyed too.

I did play Nex Machina. Forgot about that, it was so long ago. It was good, but Resogun was better. I think I tried Assault Android Cactus but barely lasted a couple of minutes. Don't remember why.
