Card Game FPS is exactly the kind of off the wall concept that instantly gets me.

This is made by Ben Esposito who made the wonderful Donut County.

Day 1 for me.


Also, I got shades of Paradise Killer from the look.

Looked rad as heck to me. In a sea of mediocre announcements, this one stood out.

Look right up my alley. I actually tried making a game like this once, as a fan of movement mechanics like rocket jumping, bhop, surf, etc. in games.

Annapurna usually pick good games and it's super original. I'm interested to say the least.

With Annapurna publishing, it does pique my interest, but I have to admit the trailer didn't do a lot for me. Looking forward to seeing impressions closer to release.

ETA: Wait, this is a Ben Esposito game? I loved Donut County, definitely more on my radar. It should feel great to play, at least.

Steve Blum doing his Spike Spiegel voice, Machine Girl, first person platformer shooter and clean cool art design. I'm so fucking in. The card shit is weird but I'm willing to give it a go. By far the most interesting and original game in the whole direct.

Cards + shooting as the genre is at least head turning, but I get the feeling that this is multiplayer focused (although there wasn't enough shown to know for sure).

If Steamworld Quest taught me anything it's that adding card game combat to other genres is a winning formula.

I'd play One Step From Eden too but I'm afraid of roguelikes.

Looks great. Glad it's on steam because it looks like you'd need the precision of a mouse to play it anything like that trailer.

Day 1 for the pc version. This needs to be played with a high framerate.

What a strange game. Anime-inspired art for the portraits but no first person viewmodel at all. The people who will be drawn in by the character portraits are probably also the same people who have never heard of dedicated rocket jumping/surf/bunnyhopping maps.

Uh, I like the aesthetics but first person view? It's a shame that the cool artstyle goes to waste like that

Weird release date if it's supposed to come out in a month or so. Regardless I'm interested. I'll give anything a chance that reminds me of Metal Gear Acid.
