Venuz Patrol posted:Dungeon Drafters released today, and I've had my eyes on it ever since I saw a trailer I picked this up after seeing the post and have ~5 hours in. I'm enjoying it! It reminds me quite a bit of Into the breach as you have full knowledge of what enemies will do on their turn. wizardchess.

I think it's okay, but a bit repetitive and a lot of the cards are really unexciting

StarkRavingMad posted:Forest Ranger Simulator I generally enjoy this kind of thing, even if janky, but this is beyond janky at this early point. I tried the demo. There isn't even a menu to show you what buttons are involved and what they do, let alone remap them. I was motion-sick almost immediately because the WASD motion stops about 0.75 seconds after you release the key. No way to change mouse sensitivity. The "tutorial" is a joke and there's very little information about basically anything. This is absolutely not ready for even a demo release, I'm frankly impressed at the chutzpah of daring to ask for money for this garbage heap. (Sorting out a garbage heap is the first thing the tutorial asks you to do.)

City of Beats Rhythm-based Roguelike. But in the sense of it being useful to follow the beat, not strictly mandatory. I played the demo and was of mixed minds about it, but figure it's still worth reporting here. World Turtles City-builder on the back of a giant space turtle. For those of you who liked the concept of The Wandering Village but wanted a different implementation.

There is a new game called Deadeye Deepfake Simulacrum that somehow nobody knows about but it's kind of incredible. https://nodayshalleraseyou.itch.io/deadeye-deepfake-simulacrum It has Caves of Qud style visuals and Hotline Miami controls, but it's an immersive sim. The hacking interface is a text parser which leads to a lot of comedy as you try to type while being shot at. If you don't like the parser you can swap it out for buttons, but that's not as funny. The writing deploys some internet lingo (ie succ) but it's actually pretty clever and fits the kinda vaporwave thing they have going on. It's really neat. worm girl fucked around with this message at 02:14 on May 2, 2023 |

I had a buddy recommend this to me a while back, and after seeing you post it here I'm checking it out, and I'm completely enamored with the short amount of time I've spent with it. Extremely charming, right down to the use of UwU internet language and iconography to contrast the nightmare ultraviolent corporate hellscape the game takes place in. Turns out games that have text terminals for their hacking are a huge selling point for me, see: Duskers, GTFO

fez_machine posted:No, same publisher who's tactic seems to be bundling it with everything. Apparently the DEVELOPER of We. The Revolution is somehow the PUBLISHER of We. The Refugees. According to steam anyways Which is more than a little strange, honestly. But I'm guessing that ActZero is just a nested organization within Polyslash, a spin off kind of thing. Or else Polyslash became a publisher and just put their naming conventions onto a game they were publishing. Either way, I can't believe I've typed out this many words about it

ultrafilter posted:Varney Lake The premise is interesting but it's really pulling me out that they're going for those designs for kids supposedly from the 1950's. They look like they're from the 80's at the earliest, more likely the 90's. It's really easy to GIS a photoreference too, the artist just kinda dropped the ball there.

A wonderful narrative adventure with so much character, great art and music, and which doesn't overstay its welcome. The boss fights are pretty fun too. The only bad things I could say about it is, as mentioned above, it's not long (but it's packed with awesome scenes), and it's not vary challenging. But for what it is, I absolutely loved it.

Play posted:https://store.steampowered.com/app/1293460/Ash_of_Gods_The_Way/ This game is very cool. Excellent art, a MUCH better story than you usually get from these types of games, but at the end of the day this type of game is all about its systems and I can say that they knocked it out of the park in that regard. It reminds me a little of Gwent except it's better in every way and actually fun. A great strategic challenge with a really cool unit and item system. Game should get more love. The only thing I kind of dislike, there are major difficulty spikes and you need to be on your game and ready to adjust your decks very, very carefully if you want to beat some of the later challenges.

lost in postation posted:Pretty sure you're thinking of The Banner Saga. Yeah Banner Saga was awesome and did have really similar line art. This one is a little different, Banner Saga was a tactics-style game but Ash of Gods is more like a card/board game where you put units down/use items and spells in the form of cards, the units move forward automatically (although you can move them to different lanes) and you combat the opponent on the other side of the board.

I see that HypeTrain Digital (the publisher) lists a Cyprus address currently but as of 2015 were HQ'd in Russia. Anyone know if this publisher is someone that should be avoided or not?
