I supported this project on Kickstarter back in October of 2018. From reading the Kickstarter informational page, I got a very distinct impression that these brothers were top notch developers. Soon after this i played the "demo" version of the game for over six hours. I was amazed at how well developed the "demo" version of the program was.

I have many fond memories of playing Pokemon Red and Blue with my son. He played on the color Gameboy, I played on the older Gameboy black & white and we would sit side-by-side for hours on end . We eventually bought a Gameboy Link Cable which allowed us to visit locations otherwise inaccessible. Good times...

There is something about this game that rekindles those memories and so I am looking forward to the release of Monster Sanctuary.

I own PUSH, Art Of Gravity and Scalak, have played a fair amount of PUSH and some Art Of Gravity. I have been thinking that I need to get away from the "kill, die, learn and repeat" games. The only thing that I have "learned" is that I "die" way too often. This game will be a nice way to get more success and less failure. **BUY**

I continued my achievement hunter activities in CS:GO. Being a wimp at first/third person shooters, I continue to "play with bots" on Deathmatch with the setting "medium bots". I am getting closer to half way on the 1000 kills with an M4A4. Sometimes I feel like I should get into the competitive realm of CS:GO, but I am so UP (under-powered) that I would be that guy everyone says, "Who invited him?"

When I am listening to podcasts, I want something that takes very little thought, does not require the use of headphones (of course) and the consequences of making a faux pas is relatively inconsequential. For that I have been playing Regency Solitaire.

Finally, I have been playing some SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech. Liam did a fantastic review of this game HERE. It summarizes nicely why I think I will continue to play this game for awhile.

I have an affinity for these "solo developer" games.
Robo Instructus() has been on my wishlist since March. After reading Liam's review and the developer's blog post, it was a no-brainer - buy now. It is somewhat similar to another game that I enjoyed, Hacknet, which is also developed by a solo developer.
I sure hope this game is successful. After reading the blog posting, you can not help but want the game to be a success.

I like the idea of letting users get a look at Steam's "works-in-progress". Anything a company can do to give users insight and input into their services is a good thing. Although each of the three labs seems to be a rehashing of "Your Discovery Queue", I rather like the "Automatic Show Experiment" format. I can see myself going back to this every few weeks to get a quick perspective on what is out there in the Steam Universe. I cannot say I ever find myself wanting to review my "Your Discovery Queue".

As a supporter, I got my Early Access key this morning via email. I watched one of the developers play Godhood this afternoon on a Steam stream. The game play looked great! There were about 3,800 viewers at the time I was watching. I will likely download the game this evening and give it a quick spin. Probably not go much farther than this though... It is clear that Abbey Games has lots and lots of plans for additional content.

I remember the posting from fubenalvo on GOL several months ago. I thought it was nice of him, as a developer, to get on GOL and post information/comments about his game Flux Caves. In his posting he mentioned that he wanted to make puzzles "...which are hard enough but not too frustrating." I bought the game on Steam, so I will be assessing his success myself.

Really looking forward to Service Integration in the Linux version of OBS. I was disappointed that Release Candidate 23.2 still lacks this feature. I am currently recording the my favorite Twitch channel using Firefox in a maximized window. It works, but the integration of Twitch into OBS will work much better and require less editing.

Got a discount coupon in my Steam inventory because I had purchased SiNKR. I bought SiNKR2 immediately. I enjoy games with "no scores, no timers". You just complete the level and you are on to the next. SiNK2 has Steam achievements, cards and is currently on sale (20% off). SiNKR works perfectly in Linux. The game reminds me of another Unity game that I enjoyed Hook. Highly recommended for people that enjoy these types of games.
