A strange little side quest
One reason action games keeps producing good game ideas around FNF: Funkin' Playground is that its history is full of strange turns. Space Invaders arrived in 1978 and helped turn electronic games from an arcade curiosity into mainstream entertainment. The timeline takes another interesting turn: A major archery competition held at Finsbury in England in 1583 drew about 3,000 participants. That long chain of experiments is part of why action games still feels fresh when a game finds the right twist.
