In the demo there sure is stuff to collect, even with light puzzles thrown in. There's also races if you find the starting point.

Demo is still available, so you can give it a spin.

I think I have played the demo earlier and it sure it sure it has some kind Overcooked feeling.

Demo was bit buggy back then, but most likely things are much better as it has been a while. If I remember correctly , game was already right kind of frantic already back then.

I tried the demo and there wasn't much point to it than running around aimlessly. As it's alpha teaser, there's of course still lot of time to improve things.

Quoting: Pendragonis it me, or does this seem like it could be a mobile game? i dig the pixel art though, that's for sure

User interface at least could work on mobile or touch screen in general.

Luckily it's not ported from mobile though, which could mean that the game is optimized for microtransactions.

Quoting: Craggles086Is there any way of playing Counter Strike solo?

Would love a single player campaign mode.

Only thing I had against it.

No, not really. You can practice against the bots, that's pretty much about it. There must be great single player games with same theme though. But at least you get that for free.

Closest I can think of is Rainbox Six games. Never played them and I don't know how good they work with Proton.

My wallet is still holding, but maybe I'll buy something before sale ends.

I have still plenty of games to play, though that hasn't stopped me from buying games before :tongue:

If you're curious, there's actually native demo available. Based on demo it's just little bit deeper, but not by much.

AT least based on the demo, you have to figure out lot of the things on your own.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyReally, this is so hand drawn I find myself thinking "Sheesh, isn't that a massive productivity bottleneck when it comes to creating the content?"

Exactly. It's the style that matters, not necessarily how it was done. I guess indies can do crazy things like this as they don't care about productivity.

Adventure game at least has benefit that majority of what needs to be animated is the characters. And walking and all other common things can be recycled and nobody will complain about that.

Results can look good though. Gibbous: A Cthulhu Adventure had quite similar claims. I watched the credits and it looks like they had benefit of having two animators. Though they did several cut scenes as well. It's bit unclear if they did anything on paper.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPThe game definitely reminds me of Hexen/Heretic.
Especially with the regions you can go back and forth between as you find keys, etc.

At least in the demo it can get bit confusing as you can start doing things in wrong order...

Now that the event is over, here's what I added to my wishlist. Twelve is quite a lot, so lets see how many I actually end up buying eventually. See more detailed commentary in the previous posts. I did short review on all except Potion Permit.

FPS
Anger Foot: strange humor and plays like action movie
Selaco: quite lot of interactivity for retro FPS, reminds me bit of System Shock games

Adventure games
Justin Wack and the Big Time Hack: humor and general wackiness just works in this one
Old Skies: plot and world building (though I imagine I will get stuck so many times)
Casebook 1899 - The Leipzig Murders: I seems to have soft spot for detective games (I need to check Lamplight City too)

Puzzle
Harmony's Odyssey: just right amount of difficulty to recommend to somebody who don't play more complex games
Kredolis: The Witness was too hard for me, maybe this one is easier
Find All 3: Travel: native simple hidden object games are not common and this one seems to be nice enough (I know someone who might like it, but I guess I could play the game myself first)

Simulators
Relic Space: might be good entry point to space simulators, hopefully the story is good sci-fi
Astro Colony: I skipped Satisfactory because it wasn't native, but this one might the one to scratch the 3D Factorio itch
Terra Nil: I have soft spot for games related to nature
Potion Permit: nice Stardew Valley clone, with its own unique spin

World Turtles I didn't actually put to wishlist, but following it on Steam instead.

I'm curious if anybody else found any interesting games?
