Speaking of funny: "Hundreds Of Beavers" marries Buster Keaton stunts, Looney Tunes madness and video game logic in a hilarious (more or less) silent film comedy.
One of the best Metroidvanias I've played in a long time. Doesn't really reinvent the wheel of the genre, but what a beautiful wheel it is. Plus, the main character uses basically JoJo stands in combat, which feels amazing.
I know "Dr. Strangelove" without the jokes doesn't sound like a good sales pitch, but trust me, this harrowing 1964 thriller about a last ditch effort to prevent the Cold War from turning hot is great.
