Steam Game Festival is here!
- Thread starter Shinobido Heart
- Start date
It looks great and has potential, but I felt the town was pretty lifeless and there weren't enough options to really flex the phyisics and immersive sim bits.

Is it even weirder that I want to play it because I think regex is just fun in general?
They've been quiet on Astalon, so it was a nice surprise to see the demo. I like what I played and I don't really have any nostalgia for stuff like Faxanadu and Legacy of the Wizard. Scrolling through the menus feels too sensitive and the screen tearing looks bad. Those are my big complaints. 🤣 The gameplay is fun and the graphics and sound nail the NES vibe. I'm even more interested in this now.
Woah, Sands of Aura has a demo? Installing...
So many great looking games here. Keep 'em coming folks!

Is this using the same engine as Dead Cells because it's very similar to it.

Thanks for this!

It's also, IMO, evidence that just aping an art style and game feel doesn't necessarily make it good. The combat feels clunky and laggy, and the world is uninspired from the small bit I played. Removed it from my wishlist after playing the demo.
I had this on my wish list because it looked like Cyber Shadow and it had a demo, but it's very rough. Didn't really like it.
It's definitely feels like Dead Cells but worse which is why I'm curious how involved the Dead Cells team is with this. Seems weird to have such a blatant clone.
I played 4 games so far: Narita Boy, No Place for Bravery, Loop Hero and Retro Machina. Absolutely loved all of them, and No Place For Bravery/Retro Machine get special mentions because they are from where i live (Brasil)
Also: Loop Hero is gonna be big.

Ya'll shouldn't sleep on Lamentum, classic RE inspired but with pixel art, has a mansion, save rooms, puzzles, and what seems like a good story so far. Worth a look!
I think this is first variant of auto chess outside of straight clones like Team Fight Tactics I've seen and I love it. It's single player auto chess mechanics of building and positioning a team that auto battles in a rogue-like framework of going through rooms of a dungeon with random events and progression.
Skatebird is cute and all but it plays quite poorly based on the demo. Quite disappointing, tbh. I wasn't expecting Tony Hawk level polish, but it plays really rough, just from core movement and mechanics.
The demo they released during last year's event was really rough too. Perhaps they're just using the same one again? It won't inspire much confidence in the full game though.
Possible, likely even. Graven's demo explicitly says it's for the TGAs in the opening message.
Word. I've been addicted to the demo /prototype of this at itch-io. Like, I've finished it 3 or 4 times even though there's no further progression or challenge; it's pure heroin. Let that serve as both endorsement and warning. :D
Downloading the Steam demo (probably against my best judgement); curious to see if it's the same or a new one, and looking forward to lose my whole day if the latter...
Edit: Fuck, it IS a new demo. Quickly Alt-F4'ed it before I stop doing literally anything else like working or eating. :D Seriously, people, don't start playing this if you have something important to do.

So the game I have been working on is in this Steam festival, which is pretty exciting.
I know what I'm trying later. I'm always on the lookout for games that seem to have a furry-type artstyle.
Thanks for the recommendations! Heads up for anyone looking for this one's demo and not being able to find it (like me), it's in a separate Steam page:
Have like ten demos installed already from this thread; can't wait to gorge myself on them once I finish today's work. :)
Delighted to help, and again thanks for bringing it to my attention; as a massive fan of mecha and indie games I always appreciate it. :)
You can view just installed games, I guess? They'll leave your library when you uninstall.
Anything worthwhile to check out for VR? All I saw looks like shovel ware minus that 3D-Tetris game. But it's not really my genre.
Yeah, but you can minimize them. Better than going in and out.
