I quite enjoy inventory management and autobattlers and Dunderbeck definitely takes the cake as one of the absolute weirdest I've played.
Coming from RUST LTD., who previously made the popular VR game Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades. This game is made with Godot, and it has a Native Linux demo available on Steam right now. A little more on the gruesome side with you collecting things and eating them, allowing you discover all the special properties they can give you - or make you sick. Everything is edible but doesn't mean it's a good idea. Everything is a weapon too, but that also doesn't mean it's any good - but you have to work with what you find during a run.

The idea is definitely interesting. Your character walks along the top of the screen, fighting creatures as you come to them with whatever you've placed into your hands. When you defeat enemies, you pick up their bodies from the bottom of the screen that scrolls along as you move. Then you have to decide if you grind them into resources, eat them for possible benefits, use them as a weapon or keep them to sell when you get back to the city.
It's all about timing here on everything. Some enemies can even pinch things out of your bag as the battles go on, with a little claw appearing on your bag showing you what row they're going to grab from. So you're constantly on the go doing something between protecting your bag, eating, sorting your inventory, grinding something down and swapping items in your hands.
Super weird but I'm into it. Love the idea, very different to others in the genre.

Grind magical creatures into sausages in the mystical world of Cincinnati, Ohio!
So, what do I do in this game? Huh?
Introducing the portable, all-purpose cooking & crafting machine: Shove in carcasses and random junk; cook up things that might be edible, and cobble together basic tools and weapons!
Seriously, pick something up and swing. A spoon? Sure. A lead pipe? Why not. A rat? Desperate times, right? Just don't expect your makeshift arsenal to last forever.
Hey, everything is eatable - at least once! Hold any item in your mouth for too long, and down the hatch it goes!
Just like the garbage you keep at home, all of OUR WONDERFUL GARBAGE has a size and shape. You can put it into nice little rows, or you can just go full goblin mode. We aren't your mom - do what feels right, you know?
