I kinda forgot about it for a while, but the remake of Solium Infernum is due out sometime this year! It's a resource building/political game where you and other demons try to claim the throne to Hell after Lucifer goes missing. It's being developed by the same team that did Armello, so they know their way around boards and hexes. The original game seems pretty drat impossible to find, and the creator quit to make board games instead :(

I’ve seen devs complain about the wishlist because they track how many people wishlist their games and don’t understand why those don’t convert into sales. For me it’s just a holding pen for things I might be interested in if they go on sale.

"Hmm... Maybe if we offer a 10% off sale that would help."

It doesn't.

My friend gave me his Steam Deck for Xmas and it's amazing. How do I turn off the FPS graph that shows up in the upper left side of the screen? It turned on during a game of Soulstone Survivors and it's distracting me.

Different topic: are there any good Mech games as of late? My system cannot possibly handle Armoured Core 6 which is what I crave (I own a Geforce 960), but like there has to be other big stompy robot games out there? Doesn't even have to be first person, third-person squads are fine by me too. Basically if IntoTheBreach had FrontMission style customization I'd be in heaven. Just without the jrpg grind, please.

I'm taking a break on some early access games until their next major update. Slime 3k is fun, but I beat all the levels and got all the decks. I was hoping each deck would be significantly different, but all they do is change your starting weapon. The game needs a bigger variety of cards to keep it interesting.

Dunkey had a game jam, and there's some pretty cool submissions. I particularly like Subspace Shootout at 16:44, and Context Catacombs after it at 17:11. I'd buy them if they came to Steam, they look fun and different.

Mullet Mad Jack is not for me, but it'll definitely be for someone. An arcade roguelite shooter with similarities to Post Void, you have 10 seconds to live, and each enemy kill gives you 3 seconds back on the clock. You get a full 10 seconds if you destroy vending machines or do finisher kills with axes/knives you pick up in the level. Obviously, it's very fast and you can kick people into fans and exposed wires. Cool. But, for me, I think it needs something more. Obviously it's stylish as hell, but the level design is very basic, often a one-tile wide corridor. And at the normal difficulty it was pretty trivial to just keep alternating between firing your gun and kicking to speed through each level. The timer also didn't show for most of the demo and I think that might have been a bug.

That looks fuckin dope

The kicker is at they put a memoriam to Kevin Conroy in the end credits of Suicide Squad, and it just feels crass after how the game treats his character, imo.

My issue with Suicide Squad is that they play mostly the same. What if Capt. Boomerang only used boomerangs? Or if Harley could call in her hyenas? Give Deadshot a full screen aimbot on cooldown so you can actually be the guy that never misses. Make King Shark play like that old Hulk game where he could smash cars onto his fists to do more damage. Not just dudes with guns, special guns, and a bigger gun.

I'll take my payment in cash, Rocksteady.

The problem with Diablo style ARPGs is that game developers saw degenerates endlessly grinding bosses in Diablo 2 for that 1/100000 drop chance rune or god roll unique and thought that was the entire point of the genre and decided to make all future entries in the genre mindless loot pinata clicking.

I like the streamlining D3 did. A random pot of ashes dropping a legendary amulet that completely changes how I play my character is the dopamine hit I crave, baby.

Also I really like to gamble when it's not costing me irl money.

If your idea of an indie game isn't something two nerds really passionate about 3D graphics rendered as 2D sprites made in their parent's garage, I don't want it.
