Steam's Halloween Sale is here with some frightful deals

Quoting: wytrabbitIt's very maze-like, and I get the feeling navigation is supposed to be more intuitive with repetition, but I just can't do it.
It does look non-intuitive if it isn't played in a single sitting.

Quoting: wytrabbitbut I wish I had a minimap because I'm constantly getting lost
Is it really that bad? I've read that several times and so far it has kept me from buying the game.

Everyone should own Sonic Mania – probably the best game of the franchise.

Much too expensive with the included punish the buyer technology. With Denuvo the price should be a lot less than 1 €.

Interesting idea. But I've watched an earlier video and that seems more fun:

Here's the 20 most-played demos from Steam Next Fest October 2024 edition

Well… it's been a mixed bag with too many games that felt lacklustre this time around.

The only new to me game that really stood out for me is the one with the murder on a train (Loco Motive), but that is a definite buy when it is done. Great writing, graphics and humour (a bit like Day of the Tentacle, but slightly more subtle).

The demo for Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders was nice as well, but there have been some performance hits on the SteamDeck and that's been on my wishlist for some time. They explicitly mention that the demo might be removed after the end of the festival for some more polish. I assume that there will be a demo available when the game is finished similar to Lonely Mountains: Downhill.

GOG has been criticized countless times for that kind of banners that makes it very tedious to actually see what is offered. It seems that everyone is keen to copy what the other store does badly.

I'm going to try the demos of Lost But Found and Block Factory.

Edit: As soon as I logged in, I was notified that there is now a demo of Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders
