I played for almost 5 hours last night and made about 10% of the progress overall, and I'm ready to continue.
A Short Hike (which is new to this version of Archipelago) sure lets you access a lot of things without any golden feathers! Which are the main item that gives progress in the game, and which I don't have any of. I've still cleared half of the game, even without knowing any particular tricks, just by jumping carefully.
A Short Hike is an interesting and cool randomizer where you're unlikely to ever be stuck, but I think they should introduce a "casual logic" where you're just not expected to go over a certain elevation without feathers.
GeoGuessr is logically stuck for now, though that doesn't stop me from unlocking more if I just get gud and get high scores that the logic doesn't expect from me. So I could play any of these games and have progress to make.
Continuing now:
