When in the fuck is Poke All Toads releasing? 2025 may as well be over.
>>723221548How to exploring all the demos without going nuts with all the "sorting tabs"?Just go to "CHARTS," disable all filters, and deep dive to the fucking bottom. It may take hours, but it's the most efficient way possible
Roguelikes should remove permadeath, I just want to see the implications that has on all of the WIP Early Access games.
Whoever suggested Foobar Zero has my blessings. It's JUST like S4 League from back in the day. I'd attach a webm but I didn't think to set up OBS so have this instead.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2841320/Foobar_Zero/

I would really like Hell Maiden if this super cool move didn’t lag my Nvidia.

Oh yeah, there’s a /vt/ game in the middle over there
>>723222201Thanks. This is dire because the average steam user is a fucking idiot who willingly downloads total garbage, but at least I can see everything if I go down far enough.
>>723222871Yunyun made me realize that im no longer good at rhythm games...
>>723223697lol, unc can't denpa up in this bih
>>723222367>look online>the only video on youtube is a trailer with less than 100 viewsMan, with such marketing your party game will never bring up players.
>>723223149I'm pretty sure it's ranked by wishlists and follows and page impressions too instead of just downloads. Any dev that actually cares tries to market their game and get a few wishlists for their game so they still appear somewhere near the top. The quality of games really drops off as you get closer and closer to the bottom. Though despite saying that, I still go all the way to the bottom of every fest.
It's boring>>723224446where even are the top 50 demos? i'm feeling less sadomasochistic than usual this fest.

almost every hentai game is chinese

>>723224481There's a Top Demos button right there, and the other two are also basically sorting it by popularity. But if you're going to use them, it's probably best to wait a day or two for the algorithm to figure out what people like.
>>723224417sadly not a marketer, I just download a lot of cheapo looking things every next fest and it tends to give me more of the same every time this comes around

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3394770/Menherarium/They patched the game. If anyone was having issues on Day 3 it's much better now. Always a good reminder that giving feedback on the Steam Forums does help Indie Developers fix issues and to understand what to make better.
>>723225052You didn't beat the game.
>>723224943Dragami Games on Twitter says it was delayed. Sadly Chaos Pieces might be suffering the same fate as well.
>>723221548Wish the interface for searching for demos wasn't such garbage. I just wanna try all the stuff with online co-op, but half the time it still gives single player ones, or gets borked when you're a few pages deep, and there's no other way to search for Next Fest demos specifically--even SteamDB doesn't have a section for it. Kinda fukken lame.
Give me some cunnycore games, onegai!

aether and iron is pretty neat. Also liking that korean resident evil-like. Other than that I think it's the worst NEXT FEST ever
>>723221548From outside looks like a typical bland RPGMaker MV slop, but this one has really funny dialogues all the time, doesn't take itself seriously, and mock off about its own genreI'm also surprised that the localization isn't the typical MT shit, the jokes are well adaptedIt's better if you install the patch to unlock all the content that Steam forbid.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3644610/My_Summer_Vacation/

>>723225576The lens flare is pure AIDS, I hate not being able to move with the D-pad and it's a bit too zoomed out, making it a bit hard to see clearly where you should go. Other than that, it's pretty great.
>>723224536God that awful translation shit is why I no longer buy those games.
>>723225576The demo has 0 original things about it, every single moment is stolen from a mainline RE game. anti-recc.
Man I've always been pretty big in demos, where I'd check them out every couple of weeks and grab some but they seem kinda shit currently, especially for this 'fest'. I've downloaded these two (yet to try),https://store.steampowered.com/app/3869660/Epoch_Cycle/https://store.steampowered.com/app/3668110/Silent_Fangs_Stealthy_Vampires_Tale/Both look and sound pretty good. Any of you guys tried a good demo yet to the point of wishlisting the game?
>>723225756I don't know why the virtual idol says denpa all the time, but dokidoki literally means "heartbeat" and it would be weird to translate it as such.
>>723225592>Nooo you're not allowed to post good gamesShould've stopped there.
>>723225772Yes: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1836560/Aether__Iron/https://store.steampowered.com/app/2340130/Ground_Zero/but that's it.
Giving shout-out to two turn-based tactical games because I like them.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2622820/Dobbel_Dungeon/In Dobble Dungeon you roll dices (starting with two, later can level up more) at the start of the character's turn and then allocate them to whatever attack or ability you want. Not always it's about the biggest number, sometimes ability require specific type of value or more than one dice. These dices are the main and I think only source of rng and with how you can freely allocate them to your needs, it really feels like you're the one in control of the outcome. Each hero has a different skill tree with multiple abilities to spec into. Skill points are share between the whole party so you can even make one character overpowered at the expense of others. Missions are presented as branching tree, but you can always go back to do mission from different branch if you wish which is something I really like. One of the starting heroes is also busty demon-girl.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3672930/Smash_it_Wild_Demo/Smash ist Wild is a turn-based volleyball game. Each of your three players has different set of servings, each applying different perks and properties to you, your opponent or tiles of the board. Position of players on the board is important since not all characters can move equal numbers of tiles. The most important attribute of character however is stamina, that depletes whenever character moves, catches ball or gets pushed around. Without stamina, character can't move. The gist of the game is to tire out and outmaneuver your opponent to get a window to land a score. In between matches you get set of events to upgrade your players. Worth pointing out that the demo got update since the start of the Fest with new UI and different starting team.
>>723225772previously?Super 10 Pin had a pretty good and extensive demohttps://store.steampowered.com/app/2383820/Super_10_Pin/RotorSim: Helicopter Simulator was a nice chill thing to play around withhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3376070/RotorSim_Helicopter_Simulator/Fumes was sick as wellhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/1920430/FUMES/This time around, I'm not so sure

>>723226098downloaded Dobble Dungeon, looks really cute. Glad to see it might actually be ok too
>>723225772https://store.steampowered.com/app/2879980/ZAKO_NO_AHIRU/https://store.steampowered.com/app/3508910/Abyss_Kitchen/https://store.steampowered.com/app/3389100/ARCADEA/Probably Homura Hime but I haven't finished it yet and maybe MOTORSLICE. Other games I enjoyed I will probably pirate
>>723225539yeah I played it, it'sfine
>>723225838It can be changed into excitement, anticipation or anxiety depending on context if you want to avoid the weeb English. It's a niche game for a niche audience though so it can get away with using weeb English, honorifics and the whole shebang so that part is more or less fine. But the Japanese has a lot of quirks that they don't bother to translate and they insert memes where there aren't any. The translation is simply a mess.
>https://store.steampowered.com/app/3547420/Ire_A_Prologue/Ever seen the movie Triangle? Gives me that sort of feel.
>>723226545Tried it. Would be nice if things weren't written in hieroglyphics. Seriously who can read this shit?
>>723226706>We're picking up at least three different whales to the East. Maybe I'm only imagining it, but I'd swear there's a note of melancholy to the songs. I've told the Captain (Gerald? Jerry? Tom? Whathaveyou) to head West. We need to go where
>>723226706you're brown
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3372060/Hell_Maiden/there's been some people who have been buttmad that the devs decided to make a vampire survivors clone instead of the ULTRA GROUNDMAKING AMAZING rpgmaker stuff they did before, but I gotta say they've done an actually great job with it so far. a ton of weapons, a good upgrade system, scaling difficulty that keeps you engaged, it's definitely at the top of the mountain of VS clones out there. kind of an odd choice to do the story with the assumption the player is already intimately familiar with the Divine Comedy, though.
>>723226706I know you're joking, at least I hope you are. But that text being displayed across two pages triggers my autism.
>>723226706It looks perfectly fine to me. Don't tell you can't decipher this neat handwriting. How old are you?

>>723226905damn, probably the best looking Survivors clone I've seen to date. might try it based on that alone, but I doubt it'll stick

>>723227352>have you just never interacted with cursive writing?Who the fuck has been taught joined-up writing in the last 10 years? Nobody under the age of I dunno, 40 writes like that. No computer displays text like that either.

I played Revolgear and that one is nothing compared to Birdcage.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3133310/Jackal_Demo/A Hotline Miami clone that doesn't feel like total shit. Weapon sounds could be better and the dialogue could be better as well, but it's very enjoyable from the get go without having to spend another three minutes in the settings menu, which is an incredible feat for a Next Fest demo.

>>723227740I'm genuinely grateful for anyone who makes a game inspired by a game I loved ages ago but have died out.

>>723227785The appeal in general is completely different, so no, it's nothing like a homosexual who enjoys two different gay sex acts. Someone who likes standard shmups games can absolutely dislike something like Ikaruga, for example, and those two have more in common than revolgear and birdcage.
I didn't really fuck with Industria 2. I think Total Chaos Demo was better but those are also the only 2 fps games I've played so I don't have any other frame of reference.
>>723227708yes, but it's very limited
>Road to vostok gets another demoNice. I hope the game does well for the dev as the absolute mad lad ported the entire game to godot after the unity drama.
>>723228007The first Industria was pretty mediocre. You really only played it for the setting. 2 looks like it will be the exactly the same.
>>723227934Alright, I see your point. The former felt like it had just more quality put to it IMO, I guess.
>>723227862>asks for administrative privilegesha ha ha...
god of yoga is goty material
>>723228124You're right in that, it looks pretty good, I'm glad that there's a bunch of upcoming shmup games that have a lot of effort in them,

>>723228196>3dcg WEGNot my cup of tea, thanks
>723228382do you actually mean the puzzle games instead of metroidvanias? because there's some metroidvanias.
>723228602no, I mean metroidbranias
Psycho Dead might be onto something. Reminds me of second sight a lot as being about someone with psychic powers and has some reliance on them to move objects, avoid hazards, attack etc without being as balls-out as psi-ops the mindgate conspiracy is.
>>723227862don't worry i'll tell you if there's any malware
I think I found this Next Fest's overrated kusoge that gets recommended by everyone regardless, but I am open to other suggestions
>>723228382>sokobanit's nothing special but I've played much worse in terms of next fest puzzle demoshttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3784410/Tui_Shou_Sokoban_Demo/
>>723229156I really don't think you need more than a glance at this to know that it's entirely a fetish game. I'm usually more open to give anime-styled games a shot and I didn't bother with that because I know it only has an appeal if you like the mesugaki meme.
>>723229237I don't dislike mesugaki but the game is genuinely awful to play but /v/ermin will lap it up because it has a 6/10 drawing quality loli in it

>>723225539I think that's Japanese. I played once until I died. UI is awful. One of the worst UIs I've experienced. The upgrade system is confusing and doesn't feel that impactful with the upgrades being kinda boring. The game doesn't explain its systems so I probably missed something. Could be alright if they keep improving on it. Will be shit if they release this with more content. It uses THREE different confirmation keys in different places for some fucking reason.
Why would you open your game on this
still haven't found a good game

>>723229889The dev's only social media is qq and bilibili, and the original name of the game is咒印链接:鲜血的呼唤 (simplified chinese, not kanji)Taiwan is not China btw
>>723230014I saw a demo that showed a text saying "In memory of Charlie Kirk" when in the opening screen.
that is not how you hold a gun
>>723229467I see you came from the other thread.
>>723230168>Taiwan is not ChinaIt is.
>>723230058>>723230124It's from Alruna I like trying pixel platformers but the entire game seems to be drenched in some weird tumblr/stoner sarcasm, the main character is also just really off-putting so I turned it off after 1 minute
>>723229675generic anime asset flip feel
Any good RPGs, or game with RPG mechanics?
>>723229675that critter has seen some shit
>>723230168Oh well. They managed to make a Japanese UI for how bad it is.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2892620/Fatal_Claw_Demo/Pretty well produced Hollow-like, a bit too on the nose and the character feels really heavy for some reason but visually it's very nice
>>723221548Even these Next Fests are getting worse because there's just too much indie slop.
>>723230318>Hollow-likeThe fuck is that? didn't Hollow Knight's design just borrow design inspiration from both that of Castlevania and Super Metroid? possibly some Dark Souls influence too. There's already a sub genre that exists for this. Why the hell would it need another one?
>>723230410Nothing has changed. There was always more demos than someone that isn't a neet could play.

I completed Motorslice demo 2 times. I might buy it if it's not too expensive.
>>723230484I'm just calling it a "Hollow-like" because that's clearly what they're ripping off, don't think too deeply on it
That Majogami demo was nothing and my screenshot of the spandex loli was a white imageInti Creates are true pros
>>723222216>>723230676Looking at the trailer and those walljump, plasma sword and revolver animations are straight up 1x1 lolThe character designs suck though, also the ragdoll looks dumb. Game feels like it's having an identity crisis. Might give it a look still
dark auction was okay, but not particularly great, but also the demo was also a bit too short to really get a feel for it. the first time I tried playing hotel dusk, I wasn't grasped by the first 30 minutes so there's that. the camera movement was really fucking bad though jesus christ who thought that weird pseudo-snapping was a good idea. also gay that they pussied out and call hitler "dictator x"the real face of a vtuber has me interested with how enjoyably dumb it is, but I wish the demo was a bit longer. the trailer shows how you'll need to analyze streams and social media posts and whatnot to poke holes in stories, but there was none of that in the demo. >>723227447it's so good. when did they do it previously by the way? I played the tales of seikyu demo and thought it was okay, but it had more performance issues and there's no way I'm bothering with the game until it's out of >ea. I liked the immortal life demo as well, but again didn't bother because >ea, although I do see it's been out of ea for a while now so I probably should give that another go.
>>723230634i'm not saying it looks bad...but i'm pretty sure you can find that tileset on the unity asset store or itch.io or somethingit at least looks very similar to what you can find on there for freetheres also several tileset errors on the store page which just reinforces my claim

played one called Obu. calls itself a procgen sandbox shooter. guns feel really cool to play around with and the character designs are cute.only complaints really is the animation on the enemies and main character. they move really strange. also the voice acting for this one character sounds off, almost sounds AI-generated

>>723238403>/?curator_clanid=35091775i do also like it a lot from what i can see. a bit simple but hopefully the full game throws a couple more abilities in.

>>723238687I haven't played Gal Guardians myself but I heard about it that release was mediocre, though I haven't played it so I don't have opinion on it. I will just pirate and maybe buy a full game if I will like it enough
>>723232934If you mean Kotama it's nothing really special, combat animations are a little stiff and the main gimmick is using basic attacks to cover enemies in ink before using a powerful finisher on them which also restores your HP, which you'll need to exploit since you're very fragile. However, you can just abuse parries (which has a rather generous window) and dodge whatever you can't parry. There's no estus charge system and you just heal directly off your money.As for exploration, the demo itself starts you off with a glide then you unlock a slide and double jump after killing the minibosses guarding them, which you can use to backtrack to obvious locations requiring them, but the rest of the map is then restricted by special doors you'll probably need abilities unlocked in the full game. That leaves the remaining appeal to be the gacha/vtumor reject character designs.>tl;drrecommend skip

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3777020/Service_with_a_Shotgun/clunky vallhalla type bartender gossip game, except instead of mixing drinks you have to shoot zombies while chatting with customersthe characters are memes with a sprite, the tower defense part feels very tacked on and the game needs hotkeys to look aroundkinda fun but I don't see it going anywhere

bros I just want to say I played Portal for the first time today and I finally understand all those stupid cake is a lie jokes everyone was posting about 20 years ago. better late than never I suppose, but now I am filled with nostalgia for that time, which is now gone and will never return.
Hell Maiden's art and music are great as expected, but mechanically didn't feel like anything special. I expected more 'continuity' for such a story based game. Being teleported to the boss arena with a fade to black is pretty lame, as opposed to like, traveling the map or something like when you rescue the blonde.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3372060/Hell_Maiden/I thought Hell Maiden will be another VS clone but I am hopeful after seeing that runs are around 10-15min, it doesn't feel braindead like most of VS-likes and it seems like there will be at least 9 stages with unique boss fights at the end of each one.
>>723247149Noted, thanks for trying it out
>>723246836Level design feels more like turok but weapons are quake 2.
>>723234924Not to oversell it since it's only like two units out of like 50 but still think it deserve shout out.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3105440/Heroes_of_Might_and_Magic_Olden_Era/
>>723245248i played this before and the chars and talk was really cringecouldn't stomach it
>>723247408What took you so long? Even I played Portal 1+2 and I'm a horse

>>723247478>>723247545The duality of man
>>723247569Oh yeah and probably won't see their butts much during the normal gameplay. Shame.
>>723247687When I was a teenager I swore off vidya because I decided I was better than that and wanted to focus on other things, now I'm older I'm just looking back to see the things I missed. It was fun and extremely well made. Apparently the dev process had a lot of play testers and they moulded the story around their feedback which prob partly explains why it's so good.
not a bad little game i suppose
>>723231894low res filter is the most disgusting thing these fake retro 3d games do
>>723247743I think the game is promising but I agree with >>723247478, I would prefer if there wasn't sudden cut out to boss fight or at least some cutscene like getting forcefully taken away to justify you being teleported to boss area
>>723243731I assume it's one of those "we don't have to pay for the IP so fuck it" situations like Marathon.
>>723247687Not that anon but I also played for the first time and finished Portal 2 this year. I should have done it sooner because I ended up loving it but I was busy with other things.
I'm having fun with Hell Maiden, hopeful that it keeps my interest the whole way through, I really like that the stage end with a boss fight because it makes it feel different from the usual VS-likes, I hope this sells better than their last game too because I liked it but they seemed to be disappointed with the sales.I am however not a haremfag and the game feels like it's going that direction so that's something I'm going to have to power through.
Where are all the schizo games?
>>723248020This is like a third fest demo I see that's top-down shooter about shooting up monster in suburbs.
any strategy or tactics games?
>>723248292well no one cares about anything you think or see
Yeah, pass. Emery Hearts was way better. This guy had a scottish accent and listening to that race of people talk is dreadful. The jump button only works in close proximity to places where you can jump? Press it in other places and nothing happens.
>>723247743The card upgrade/hand management system is cool and requires more thought than the average upgrade system, but it's not enough to carry the game. It's certainly one of the better VS clones but again, doesn't break any new ground.
every time I see someone call something a VS-like my mind instantly goes to void stranger before I remember they're talking about vampire survivors, which isn't even the first in the genre but also a pretty bad one compared to say holocure or picayune
>>723248214>I liked it but they seemed to be disappointed with the sales.>2 playthroughs to see all the romance scenes and then you’re doneThey expected too much of a short story game

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3508910/Abyss_Kitchendunno if this is a part of next fest, but I just played Abyss Kitchen.10/10, you're playing a furry shota/loli, you "search" bushes, dead bodies and other part of scenery by hovering your cursor over them to gather materials. Enough materials give you an "instant meal" which you can feed to the members of your party. Giving food to your girls levels them up and at max level allows you to use ultimate. Your party attacks monsters and bosses but you have to avoid all projectiles. After the stage is done you can cook for your party, vanillaware style. Pic related, you can turn mushroom lady into a mushroom soup.
>>723254284You're playing as a loli, I've played the devs other games they were all yuri, this one is a deviation from that because they decided to "focus on strong female friendship" instead this time.
>>723254351I downloaded all other games from the same dev. They look fun. I need some fun games in my life.
>>723252192there was already one megabonk clone in the fest but I forgot the name
>SkigillSurvivor clone with the main gimmick being that you fight waves of enemies on top of your skill tree. Probably just gonna wait till it leaves early access though.>House of DecayThe actual platforming feels good enough though grinding on rails SA2 style probably needs some refinement. The demo level was actually fairly long. The environments and music were pretty repetitive. >NeverAwake FlashbackIt's NeverAwake but more arcade-like, instead of having a level select. You have a floating doll to give you extra fire power and ties into the special attacks. The route you take is a combination of three letters which vary the difficulty quite a lot.>Brno TransitHorror game from the Hrot dev. Had some unintentional(?) funny moments.>RuneblightFPS with Souls like elements, including leveling stats. Seemed alright; didn't make too much of an impression on me. I'll be curious to see how it looks when it comes out of early access.>No Players OnlineHorror game where you mess with a PC not unlike Hypnospace. I liked it but I'll just wait and see how it turns out. >AirunaIt's a metroidvania. Not sure why but I didn't care for it.>BirdcageShaping up to be a really good shmup. Great presentation. Will definitely keep playing the demo.>ConstanceGood metroidvania. I played some of it but I think I'd rather wait until the full release.

>>723254976Oh fuck. I didn't know the HROT dev was working on a new game. How scary is it?
>>723255238>How scary is it? Not particularly. More surreal than scary.
