Mortal Shell 2's atmosphere is top notch. Seriously great dark fantasy atmosphere. I don't mind the protagonist looking like a Marvel villain now.

>>741309431It's certainly something. It has videos in the description but I always get wary about store pages that don't have a trailer on the top carousel. It's sketchy.
Browsing through steam next fest is like digging through a sewer. I've never seen so much pure slop.
>>741309234this is like eating buttered toast. Perfectly fine, but extremely uninteresting. I didn't really see any potential for the card mechanics to get terribly complex, and they went too safe on the fan service, aside from the occasional yuri groping
I only play first person Scrollslikes and top down Zeldalikes.
>>741309564My favorite is when I scroll down to the AI Content Advisory, and they say that AI was used to "produce concepts which was then PROCESSED by their ARTISTS". Hilarious shit.
>>741309482I remember playing the demo for the first Mortal Shell and it seemed like mid jankDid they really improve on the sequel?
>>741309564there's just so much shit to actually find anything good.
My OLED's in for repairs so I'm on poverty vision.I got>The Guild 1410>Corsair Cove>Star Trek colony builder game>Mound of Cthulhu
>>741309673It might just have better atmosphere as the only difference of Mortal Shell 1, but that actually makes a lot of differenceBut there are probably a lot of improvements
>>741309673NTA but it feels like a game by a completely different studio when it comes to the gameplay. Sure it is still janky at times, especially when random pieces of geometry decide to stop your movement like a wall, but overall it was very pleasant to play.
>>741309716There's a Star Trek colony builder game? Is it as brown as I expect?
>>741309564very original not annoying comment
>>741308859>Useful linkshttps://rentry.org/steam-hoverhttps://github.com/kani-ge/DLSite-Links-Plus
>>741309673I thought it was still terrible, but it seems to have crossed the threshold of "not shit" for many others. Try it yourself and see.
>>741309890One on the marketing lolhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3469910/Star_Trek_Outposts_Unknown/
>>741309495Agreed, but I fear that the game and dialogue options are just too linear. I replayed the demo a few times to try and see if questions would somehow impact gameplay (like when Morrigan asks you if you're more of a sneaky guy or someone who likes having soldiers engage in combat) but it didn't seem to have made a difference. I still enjoy the music and setting a lot thus far, obviously due to the MGS inspirations but the documents makes me think it's been well-put together so far.pic unrelated

Any colony simulators coming out?
>>741310249No offense to jonathan blow but after playing the demo I just don't see what makes the game appealing. The characters were yapping too much and the game was surprisingly demanding for the visuals. Going west was somewhat better but still it's a difficult sell compared to the witnessMaybe it would've been more impressive had it been made 10 years ago before shit like Baba Is You
>>741310375there's the star trek one but it's kinda ehhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3469910/Star_Trek_Outposts_Unknown/
>>741310436Yeah I was looking at that last week, it seems like it could be alright I guess, since I prefer colony sims based on small crews instead of having hundreds of units. I'll try it later tonight.
>>741309069dodo culo
>>741310310art is actually good, but I think it's way too simplified even compared to those new york games.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4604900/HEAVYDELIC_Demo/Might be worth a look if you like weird stuff
>>741310417The demo undersells it because of how restrictive it is. In the full game, you'd just be able to go any of the 4 directions for as long there was non-overlap left there. And there are almost no original, 3D puzzles in the demo, either. It seems like just another Sokoban because, in the current state, it is.
>>741310937Because almost 11 000 games released on steam in 2026 so far.
>>741311175So many of these look like student projects that got shat out on unreal engine and thrown on steam.

How the fuck do you even download steam trailers anymore? The store pages themselves no longer allow you to just download them straight from the browser pages. And steamdb only shares links for the microtrailers nowadays for some reason.

>>741308859>FARCRAFTSchizocore games fueled by AI sloppa? I could imagine we're going to see some pretty expansive autismo-verses.

>>741310249I might pmay the demo if we can export progress to the full game

>>741311597It uses that m3u8 shit. Check out yt-dlp or Video DownloadHelper.
>>741312916It looks cool to be sure but I don't think I can handle another grindfest like DD
I played the demo for Sojourn Past. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3244790/Sojourn_Past_Demo/ It's obviously inspired by Hyper Light Drifter and plays very similar. The graphics and animations are beautiful, but... there are some areas where the devs REALLY need to polish the game.1. In spite of the game looking pretty, they use the basic bitch unity font in all the menus. Why? It looks so bad. There's clearly so much effort put into the appearance, but then they just use Arial? It doesn't make any sense. Unity devs need to stop doing this shit, it's the biggest "I don't care about my game" red flag to anyone looking at the game. Strangely, when you set the language to Japanese the font looks a lot better and roman characters become serif (but only in the map and not in the other menus).2. Some things lack animations or it's too sudden. For example, the radial menu opens instantly (not even a quick fade-in or animation) and it's kind of jarring because it doesn't mesh well. The death screen is also too sudden, it cheapens dying a bit.3. There's no combat music or change in intensity during a fight, only in bosses/arenas. It's just the same ambient or piano tinkling. Not a huge deal but kind of weird.4. You open your menus with tab, but you can't close them with tab. You have to use escape, which is annoying.5. No map markers. If I find a secret and want to come back to it later, I don't have a way of doing that without memorizing the location. Also, there's a bug where if you zoom in/zoom out to an area on the map then the player character icon disappears. It's just my opinion, but I also think the map menu background should be translucent (or have a subtle pattern or whatever) rather than a solid blue.
>>7413131866. There's practically no labels in the game, on the map or in your inventory. Which works in a game like Tunic where you get hints and whatnot, but it just feels incomplete here. I think it would feel like less of an issue if (again) there was an animation for going into the menus because then they would feel more integrated.All that being said I do like the game and hope the devs fix this before release, I probably won't get the game if they don't.
>>741313016the demo didnt feel grindy at all and I think its not going to be as annoying as darkest dungeon because that game is just CBT for the sake of italso mountain climbers in the early 1900s (I think) is a kino setting
>>741312782>OutpourPlayed it, not that interesting.>MonocreLooks lame.>Echo WeaverLooks bad.>Everything elseThanks, downloaded.
>>741312090Not gonna lie, I'm kinda annoyed how most new rts games are either a very visible copy of Starcraft or C&C.
>>741310417>No offense to jonathan blowAll taken
>>741312090Starcraft copy, runs like shit but a part from that is Okay, the units take to long to build for my liking
Are there any good incremental games?
>>741311072It certainly looks nice but you can barely call it a game. You platform for five seconds and then you hit a dead end with an infinite spawner of enemies that you whack with an extremely simple animation. That's it. Needs a million years in EA to become something.
>>741310249I thought Blow was based? why did he betray us by making a femoid game?
>bothering with next fests in the big 26I guess a slopbotomy is required.
>>741311018>praying on honest folk
>>741312231Dust Front is very promising but yeah it needs some serious polish. Some of the problems;>CameraThe obvious one. It makes for good screenshots but the camera blows massive ass when you're actually trying to play the game. Awful angle and can't be zoomed out>SupplyA minor one but something I found very annoying. Supply depots give pathetically small increases to your supply cap so you're constantly building huge swathes of the things and you can only do it a couple at a time because of build limits. The large depots that give okayish amounts of supply cost the meta resource>Resource fieldsDeplete ridiculously quickly. I'd guess it's supposed to be balanced out by resource fields being everywhere but the only way to expand is slowly basecrawling with cranes which uses the meta resource, or using your single irreplaceable mcv which is very slow and clunky. You also can't build on resource fields and they absolutely litter the entire map. I also don't like depletable resource fields as a game mechanic in RTS but oh well
>>741315158>goodI dunno but I made 'be kinder and, like, be a rewinder dude'. You could check that out
>>741315601A simple misteak anyone could make, really.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4080030/The_Message_from_Deep_Space/I downloaded this one thinking it'd be like a 10 minute thing I'd be indifferent to and forget but it ended up being a really enjoyable 2 hours of like a math version of Chants of Senaar, and the NPC banter was actually pretty nice too

>>741315720>>741315928I played this for 7 hours straight yesterday without reaching the end of the "demo". I got up to like signal 75 before I had to stop. It gets fairly complicated.

>among us demo>mostly just walking and clicking dialogue, barely any actual point n click segments>90% of things are interrupted by a pop up saying "nope can't do this in the demo">it's over after 15 minutes right before you can actually do something
>>741309564it's still not too difficult to find a couple worthwhile games, so it's not a huge dealbut I have wondered for a while now how people who make such low effort dogshit can afford the steam fee for games that often don't look good enough to bother putting on itch.io for free
>>741316308100 bucks isn't that much money to piss away into the wind.freeware games used to go out of their way to register a domain and host a website for players to download their game from, and that's a recurring maintenance cost. I did that just fine as a teenager, anyone who's a working adult should easily be able to foot a one-time fee.
>>741308859anything worth playing so far?

>>741316504I liked the frog game a lot
Any good cheap tower defense?I got Tower Dominion thanks to last years Fest and enjoyed it a lot for over 100 hours
>>741316865that doesn't change the fact that 100 USD isn't a lot of money unless you are unemployed or live somewhere that your currency is fucking worthless.to a lot of desperate nodevs, the gamble of 100 dollarydoos compared to the potential to become a multi-millionaire is a bet they think they can gamble on, look at the complete dogshit like that banana game that's botted to hell and back to try to exploit the steam community market.to someone who actually enjoys making games on a shoestring budget in what is basically a basement, money is no object. it's neither an obstacle nor a goal. but that's not the circumstances that asset flippers and sloperators are in, they just want to get lucky and get rich. Don't pay low quality games any mind.
>>741309069Played it but I have to agree with >>741310121Every choice you get in the demo is either fake or heavily railroaded, it's basically a straightforward VN trying to pretend it has gameplay

>>741311018Game immediately interested me but>Early AccessI will be waiting a while it seems before it is actually finished
>>741317785>but Early AccessWhat do you think nextfest is?
>>741315720>like a math version of Chants of SenaarSpectacular pitch, I'm immediately invested.
>>741317869Demos of upcoming games. When a game enters Early Access, my assumption is that it will be there for years because half the time EA is just used as an overly extended beta period so they can milk money early. Plus it's going to be balanced "by committee" rather than by the devs themselves, which for an RPG could be a fucking death knell.Either way, I just don't have a strong opinion of Early Access.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3103620/Witch_the_Showdown/Cute girls slapping each other with magic cards. It looks like a deckbuilder but it feels more like a rhythm game.Attacks have various modifiers and using a set amount of specific elemental spells gives you strong buffs, so I assume harder content will demand proper attack combos (I hope so, at least).Play it if you like flashy attack effects and/or butt physics.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3648350/Dream_Walker/AI slop but gave it a change anyway and it was good but at times tedious. It mixes all mechanics from other jrps like body parts from F&H, press turns and a flaw system where you do a strong free attack if you meet some requisite against the enemy, like using electric damage in the mechanical parts. Losing everything when you die because this is an extraction JRPG, you can load the game anyway. Some super strong enemies that blocks random paths and can't passs them in anyway are a pain in the ass. Wish the game had a better translation, the AI the dev used suck at it.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4145130/ORPHEUS_TO_HELL_AND_BACK/So yeah it was a game, stiff controls, puzzle game, attract, repel or stun enemies with your music. It was short and so boringly easy that I can't say if it is good or bad, it was a tutorial dressed as a demo. the boss was junky.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4358660/Hull_Rupture/It was hard as balls or maybe I am stupid. This game is a resource management more than a tower defense, you have to make guys to control the ship which make energy to make rooms which turn energy into steel then make the steel into something else and bla bla. Should have go slower so I won't have wasted so much biofuel. Good game.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4029380/Pathogenic_Demo/It was good, it has a curious equipment system where the nodes are connected to some parts so you have to be mindful with which weapon you want to get which upgrade and what take the center. there was a good range of weapons, swords, slow clords, flamethrower ect.

Played Iron Nest, enjoyed it. There's some minor UI things that could be fixed, like it would be nice to access the history of the messages you get in case you accidentally wipe where the spotters are or something. The font is a bit weird, would like something that fits the setting more.
>>741316504how about you actually read the thread dumbass
I recommend Silver Pines, 2D Silent Hill/Twin Peaks survival horror with good voice acting, demo is about 70mins
>>741321923what do you mean fake jrpgs
>>741308859>Queen's DomainIt seems like it'll be pretty good but my only issue with it was the lack of blocking or dodge mechanic. You have to eat damage pretty much unless I'm retarded. Maybe the wind dash mechanic that you seemingly get at some point after the demo ends is meant to be that?
>>741321495the game looks fine but the art for the character in the UI is reminds me of deviant art

>>741324462NTA but that actually looks pretty good
>>741324712It's pretty decent, played it yesterday. Skipped all the dialogue so I have no idea what it's about. The biggest criticism I could see is that visual clarity is pretty bad, so enemies will camouflage a lot on the environment.
Do you finish the demos or are you like me and when you hit a satisfaction point you wishlist and uninstall the game so as to not spoil it more for yourself?

>>741311018Why is this character creation option a turn off for you? Actual question. It’s a bit of text assigned to your character object in the code.

>>741324862>spiritual successor to Ragnarok OnlineI'm placing my bets on Memora Wanderer (no demo unfortunately).
i cant do this shit anymore man i still have threads saved from previous next fests with game recommendations that i havent looked through yet who has the fucking time to go through al lthis
>>741313186>4. You open your menus with tab, but you can't close them with tab. You have to use escape, which is annoying.Glad I wasn't the only one. It's a pet peeve of mine
>>741311367Name?
>>741322851I just finished that, pretty good. Probably the first time I've seen one of these indie 2D horror games that actually had decent gameplay and horror vibes to it.
>>741323124You are retarded since simple movement is enough to avoid any attack in the demo but also you can use the starting sword's lunge as a makeshift dodge. And a super jump accelerator.
A bit late to the fest, what are the good detective games this time around? Recommend me some sleuthing kino.
>>741310417>Baba Is YouI'm glad I'm not the only one that felt like this game was very similar to Baba. Still, the puzzles are good and there's actual fun characters and narrative in this one. If the gem puzzle "The Promise" didn't win you over than the game just isn't for you.
>>741310417>The characters were yapping too muchDid he not playtest at all? In the first minute you have the main character talking and an audio log overlapping it
>>741326370Same. I started during the press preview, I have still 40+ demos to go throughNot counting the 3-4 ones I had from previous next fest
>>741324791I try to finish every demo, even the longer ones, as long as I'm enjoying it. I'll only bounce early if I'm not enjoying it or it doesn't have a clear stopping point (i.e. I'm not playing a rogue-like for 8 hours to get all the upgrades)
>>741313486My RTS is going to be milsim.
>>741326848Slim pickings this round but I've wishlisted the following so far. Death at Fleming Manor, mini murder mysteries, Cold Case the Red Dress Murder. Legion Was Here technically counts but it was on another next fest anyway.
>>741315720holy fuck I am not smart enough for this, I am stuck on number 22I cannot figure out what the first -2 sequence is supposed to be, I thought it was just a simple + but they didn't remark on it like -4, -5, -6 and -5 is also +
>>741324939The quality of the writing didn't bother me, the amount did. It's clearly a story with some game, not a game with some story. But what ultimately made me bounce off is that the game part is just boring, didn't think breaking walls and electronics with a sledgehammer could feel so dull.
>>741326310Memora feels like it went the extra mile by using similar music/instruments in their game based on the trailer. I'll keep tabs on it, thanks.

Okay thoughts on the shit I've played so far:>Demon's ReignArt is good, Combat is so early you don't really get a feel for how it will play because it's basically impossible to lose if you recognize it's a Black Souls clone and know how dodge works in Black Souls. On that note, the game is way too derivative of both Black Souls and Demon's Souls.>SAO slopstrangely similar sentiment to the last game but it's a very derivative souls game. I only did the first mission of the demo because you just run through empty cooridors and fight the same 3 enemies and pick up rocks and when you get to a boss it has like no HP.>EntropyWeird take on party-based RPG combat focused on party formations and managing hired mercenaries. It's fine, I don't feel like I really got the full taste of the system from the demo but it seems like it can get very complex and autistic. The default graphics settings have a bunch of faux-retro stuff enabled like a crt filter and excessive dithering effect that makes the game look like sludge. There's also some deranged fantasy third gender shit which I don't really care about but I know will annoy many. The best part about this game are the monster designs they're really cool.>GrimDelvecomplete dogshit. I've been following the dev's progress and this is basically like a weird normie take on LonaRPG & BS I'm not even joking. It's RPGM but there's no combat there's some stealth and there's some puzzles that have multiple solutions based on your character traits but other than that it's a weird edgy walking sim.>NimaatI'm on board with the concept but this game is extremely buggy right now. There's weird stretched text everywhere, controller doesn't work and sometimes it shows controller prompts when using keyboard anyway. Dev is an ESL and it shows, keyboard controls are terrible. The rotoscoped animations are nice but seem goofy in a supposed horror game. I'm keeping an eye on this one but so far it's meh (also the main character is hot).
>>741328274If you advance far enough Bautista updates the compiler to automatically translate base-8 to base-10 so that gets easier
>>741328237eerie unsettling horror, for the most part.there were a few "jumpscare" moments, the worst one being during the opening sequence, but the others require you to ignore the warnings the game gives you. I had to watch a youtube video to see them because I didn't trigger any during my playthrough.Some secrets buried in the demo you can leave the "intended path" in the car park area
>>741328281>Order of the sinking starI actually haven't played any of Blow's other games but I quite liked this. It's probably the most polished sokoban I've played. It's honestly refreshing that even a couple hours in the game hasn't thrown any real ball-busters, like Baba gets hard as balls pretty quick IMO.>Enderfieldeverything about this game is good, art was good, combat was good. I really like the Junji Ito inspiration but unfortunately I cannot stand farming sims so I probably won't play the full game.Haven't started Casualties Unknown yet.
>>741328726>Casualties Unknownfetish game
>>741328568Sounds good, I'll give it a try without knowing anything about the prequel.
>>741328352I think I got there, he said hes gonna work on itAlso fuck me seeing 1 divide 2 equals 0 octal 4, that shit looks disgusting
>>741328951That's a bad idea, you need to play the original game to understand most of the references and the whole setting really.
Gossamer Matrix seemed clearly inspired by Cruelty Squad so I thought they would be similar experiences, where a talented dev makes something that seems like shit on purpose but you realize there's actually a lot of work put into it. But no, Gossamer Matrix is just kind of shit. There's no level design or thought put into the encounters. The shooting is awful. There's no interesting art. It's just a game about sorting your magazines and manually reloading.

>>741330032From some dev responses on the forums, it seems that you're playing as an Englishman who volunteered for Napoleon's army. Because the protagonist was motivated by his ideals, and not loyalty to France. Seems like a really weird choice instead of just making him a Frenchman.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3032970/HYPERFIGHT_2/>can't really judge this because I can't get any lobby matches and the CPU is too braindead to really feel like I'm trying anythingI'm a shitter at fighting games but it seems alright for a "simple" fighter. Never played the OG game but this is like>a button is normal/specials with cardinal direction inputs changing how it works>b is metered specials, same rule of different attacks coming from directional inputs like forward special button>c a one button super>airdasher with spot dodge>characters available are some shoto equivalent guy, a person who uses stacks to use boosted versions of his standard normal/a button attacks and a setplay character who creates nodes to detonate, move around or zip betweenYou can still do combos, the game has a combo trial in it and generally explains the character's gimmicks with specific trials. I think that the setplay character's the most fun to mess around with (Yo-Yona) because the angle of her yoyo nodes can affect the direction for the opponent when they get launched by the yoyo set detonationDemo got promoted in my next fest queues but the game's demo was out since Apr.

I stopped caring about demos ever since Half Sword turned out to be a complete pile of shit. I put 20 hours into that demo and the full game came out unoptimized and somehow worse than the demo, and it hasn't had an update in months.Never trust devs.

>>741330767I was in the alpha for Gang Beasts as a teenager, had some of the most fun I've ever had with a game. Over the years they kept removing and adding the same maps over and over again, never doing a single actual improvement. In the end there's probably less content that in that initial alpha
>>741325238>>741325415https://store.steampowered.com/app/2804240/NEODRIVE/I passed over this at least twice while looking through demos, almost entirely because of the art style and it from the surface looking like a trackmania clone. Another anon mentioned it played solid so I gave it another try.It IS a trackmania clone, at the basic level. With the addition of, analog input for gas and brake, manual with clutch, and a boost bar that is filled through skill.I'm usually not a fan of using a clutch + shifting on a controller but I got a handle on this system very quickly and you can slam shifts real quick. It became very satisfying very quick. Rev match downshifting during chained drifts can get pretty hectic for the hands though.Personally, I could do without the boost mechanic and more of a pure focus on vehicle control instead of trying to game out when the best use of boost is. The overall vehicle handling characteristics felt extremely solid as well.Got at least god times on about half the available times in an hour before my hands started getting tired. There were also some test maps showing the dev experimenting with a traffic filled highway and rally environments.Vid related ended up being a top 8 time worldwide, could for sure clean it up by a few seconds without the wallride and starting the lap with a boost which I didn't do.

>>741323470>>741323591I just got done playing it for a bit, and yeah it fucking sucks. They can strip away the gacha greed but it still plays like a gacha game, which I find to be the most boring thing in the world. I'm confused on why they made such a big deal about it being made by the DN devs when the thing DN did right was the combat. The combat in this game is somehow more basic than blue protocol. Very disappointing, yet I'm not surprised. It seems like korea has forgotten how to make anything that isn't standardized.

>EmpulseBlatant Titanfall 2 clone. As a old /tfg/ man this hits pretty well (though needs some polish, sometimes I just randomly stop while slidehopping) and the paint gimmick is neat. However, the weapons look like they're all hitscan and you're forced to play as a REDACTED until level 44 where you unlock the white man, which instantly disqualifies this as potentially being good. While writing this I realized this is coming from the splitgate devs, which is probably also a huge red flag.>Echos of Aincradcombat is alright, map design is atrocious. Tries to be open world but is also insanely restrictive on where you can go if you try to walk anywhere but the paths. Everything either has high walls you can't climb, areas you can't drop down to because of the PATHETIC fall height, or actual invisible walls. I gave up after coming across a bridge that was blocked because "outside the mission area", despite LITERALLY going towards the objective and instead you have to take an extremely long path around. Also death game mode being locked out if you transfer your save to the full game sucks.>Iron NestPretty cool sim of controlling this giant fucking thing. I think this would be much better in VR, though the dev's already stated a big MAYBE if he ever figures out VR dev (gl with that). The angle controls being calculated automatically feels a little sour though, feels like something you should have to do yourself. Wishlisted>Project Turboblastthis shit really gives that Redline feel. Though I feel like I shouldn't be allowed to abuse drifting as much as I have, you can pretty much do it on straightaways and spam boost forever. Looking forward to what mod support looks like. Wishlisted
>>741333968>Burn 9Neat MGS-like but you're playing Hal guiding Snake instead. Like the idea but there needs to be more gimmicks to the Operator gameplay instead of just "scan thing" and "go here". Wishlisted>XenofeelsNot sure how much more reference spam I could take but blasting fuckers with the shotgun felt surprisingly fun. The demo felt like enough, don't think I'd play more than that. The vehicle inspection sucks though I somehow passed day 7 anyways without ever figuring it out.>Witch the ShowdownPretty sick mix of realtime combat with cards but man does it ask a lot from you. I'm still getting tripped up trying to juggle cards while dodging attacks. One of the characters is blatantly using a VRChat booth outfit which is funny.>Memory of MemorieCan't actually try studying with whatever ADHD aid this shit is until the weekend where I have more free time.

>>741324862I think spiritvale has three main issues>solo dev using commissioned/unity assets, so some people are bouncing off the artstyle>grindy as fuck with no handholding, you're effectively plopped into the game and told "go explore" because it's a spiritual successor to RO despite the game having some pretty lenient QoL (hard pity for every standard gear drop, easy access to boss spawn items to name a few)>the game is nowhere near complete, it's going to enter early access in july because it isn't a full release. it's currently version 0.20.4 with a fairly large roadmap (e.g. several more maps, tripling the amount of advanced classes so every class has three choices, guilds + guild wars, lifeskills, etc.)I think it's pretty fun and I've grinded the fuck out of it, but I wouldn't recommend the game to most people and I fully expect a lot of people trying the demo to bounce off. Even the most autistic anons might drop it within an hour instead of grinding enough to get to their advanced class.Despite that, I can see it doing pretty well; the Kickstarter is successful and the guy has been consistently updating the public playtest for over a year now, so it's pretty unlikely that he'll fuck off and run.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4674010/TORR/Basic ass rpg from NES, even with the lack of qol, text move slow and you can't skip it, it yaps for everything, check ground because a spot looks weird? 2 slow square of text, learn a magic and slowly explain you need to go to an altar. The game looks interesting but I am too zoomer for this shit.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4332880/Blades__Battles_Demo/It was an efficient beat em'up, controls well, collisions work how they are supposed to work and is responsive, only hope the armored enemies won't become too annoying like the blue minotaur. but more importantly YOU FUCKING NIGGER WHY DON'T LET ME PLAY CO-OP IN THE DEMO!?https://store.steampowered.com/app/3948110/Hashire_HEBEREKE_EX/Is a running game, kind of like Mario Kart but with no wheels, only two levels that are quite simple. It comes with the original too which I can't access to in the demo. fun game I suppose, maybe emulate the original to know what this like better as the track gets more gimmicks and shit.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2531040/Rune_Golf/So a chill precission platformer? is golf, you ahve limited shots before the hole closes, secret paths with lore and npc that say things. It was good, game needs patient as you get few shots. atmosphere is chill, looks nice and the demo has 10 levels. Good demo.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4107750/Shutter_Story_Demo/It was pretty good, is fun to see ghost and most likely how messed up the family is.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4323990/EMPULSE/Like some another said, Titanfall. It was good, a shame it lacks melee and instead has an insta kill hammer. It lacks a bit of mobility and doesn't feel as smooth as TF2 but to be fair, TF2 is godlike. yes good game and like the matches idea like stealing mechs and hold-the-ball.
>>741335898I didn't get to the second class, but only because the players were saying there's going to be a server wipe for the start of early access. I'd hate to burn out before the game even releases.
>>741336079Yeah, that's another factor. The server wiping kind of doubles down on the grind problem. If the EA period weren't so close to the demo period, some people might grind harder, but July 15th is close enough that people might not recharge after burning out.The common trend I'm seeing is that people are playing for a few hours or so to get a feel for the game, maybe grinding enough to hit 2nd class and gain a few job levels so they can decide if their future main is satisfying to play as.
>>741328726>It's probably the most polished sokoban I've playedA Monster's Expedition is also pretty good (I mean the puzzles, not the writing, that made me want to kill myself). It was made by the same guy as the Mirror Isles and Skipping Stones To Lonely Homes (the latter is not in the demo).

I wish I could have faith and believe Iron Nest is gonna have the improvements it needs on launch.IIRC its a 2 man ESL dev team aiming for an august release.Elevation doesn't do anything except act as a distance slider, an elevation of 0 will have the shell land directly under the nest.Somehow its coded poorly enough that changing the max elevation would be a massive undertaking according to the devs.The steam page description is AI written, which is forgivable because the devs are very ESL but I don't trust devs who can't cobble together enough english to write a steam description.As others have pointed out here and in /indie/ the missions are very simple and don't require much more than baby's first triangulation followed by burning time rotating/elevating. You're only required to work quickly once and its trivial if you just plan it all out before firing your first shot.God I hope PVKK fulfills all my autistic wishes. Every delay makes me think its trapped in development hell, but I'll pretend that it just needs that long to be good. They really would have benefited from shipping a demo though, we know they already have one because they did that physical setup demo at some show.
>>741337674My thoughts exactly. The ballistics calculator and the automatic measurements on the table just make it far too easy. Combined with the free recon photos every time you launch a shell or the scout plane, it is trivial to pinpoint every enemy on the map

>>741338189It was promised to him 10,000 years ago
>>741311367Nice
>>741338251I tried it. Liked this aesthetic, disliked the "gameplay"
>>741337674It was fun for a bit but yeah I hope there's some more actual mechanics involved later in the game. It's just plugging in the numbers once you figure it out.But the game is coming out soon so I doubt they'll do any major reworks of anything.At least the animations are pretty cool.
I don't know that this is specifically next fest, but there's a demo for outward 2 and I was so far very disappointed. This is technically a playtest, not a demo, but the graphics pop in and UE5 stutter was pretty shit. Also, the character creator forces you to make some disgusting creatures, its incredible how bad it is. The music is good though

>>741337674playing iron nest barely scratches that itch and makes me crave PVVK even more
>>741338440outward 2 is a complete disaster, it's a complete cluster fuck both technically and design wise, it needs like 3 more years of development and polish
>>741313486>tfw the best brand of RTS, Total Annihilation, is dead
I thought I was going to like this one but damn it's pretty bad, I don't get why the developer felt like this game needed to be a "roguelike" instead of a linear experience and the monster is nothing but a big random fuck you repeat the run button if you're unlucky enough to have it appear in more enclosed spaces
>>741339224>roguelike seething post #128947398749587892q4jesus I thought you'd like a roguelike because you just do the same shit over and over and over again nonstop. Anyway, it's more like Groundhog day or Majora's Mask. which is kind of like being a roguelike I guess.
>>741324247No lol, these idiots think turnbased """four niggas in a row"""" makes it a jrpg
>>741338440the guy behind outward has the right intentions but is offensively incompetent at game design so it's sad to hear negative reactions to a sequel
>its very tragic to hear about hoffman's wife being abducted by aliens and we wish her well.>"Tee off"
>>741339374But the concept doesn't work for how the game is structured and just how limiting the timer is, if the monster hits you once (and it will) and there are no healing items nearby you're better off resetting because the character starts limping like someone broke one of her fucking leg with a sledgehammer, I also don't get why the game lies to you about being able to somewhat hide from the monster when it seems like it's able to instantly lock on you the moment it spawns
>>741338440>>741339035This is extremely disappointing to read, but thank you for sharing this info.
>>741339035>>741339441>>741339623outward 1 felt like a gothic-esque jank fest. outward 2 demo feels like any other UE5 asset flip
>4270 matchesSteam please, I can'tthere's such a thing as too many games being madeI wish a lot of these indie teams were somehow coalesced into bigger studios, there must be so many interesting ideas watered down by its game's lack of depth, we need to return to the age when AA and AAA were able to innovate

Any games similar to Enshrouded or Windrose?
>>741308859Kind of disappointed by Brekekekex. The enemies feel super over-tuned with the amount of i-frames they get on their dodges/attacks/recovery (that they input read hard with) compared to you. It just feels really unbalanced and unfair for how tight everything else is. I basically had to cheese Blem with grab spam because trying to play around with any of your other options (mixing up vertical/horizontals; doesn't matter at all they input read it, tanking and punishing attacks; depletes your block bar fast) just opens you up to a ridiculous 100-0 combo he can juggle you in if you've run out of blue bar for the panic recovery move. Fully dropped it at Clem, playing as the frog felt especially bad.
>>741341510>that they input read hard withInstantly uninstalled. Thank you.
>>741341105Biased. Turn off the personalized view for random rec.
>>741341510Is this the game with no lock on?
>>741341821PC games don't need lock on, you have a mouse
>>741341510I button mashed my way through it and beat everything first try. It's very easy to get behind the frogs and send them flying with a thrust attack and then try to scramble together a shitty juggle. Rinse and repeat. The AI constantly misses its attacks and I didn't even have to block once outside the tutorial. Making an anime arena fighter with depth is a fool's errand.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4536730/Flame_Up/I don't get the point of games like these, divekick already made it work, this only has whiff punishing, neutral and footsies going for it but it doesn't feel engaging to play for longer than 5 mins.Then again i am a poser with fightans. Or I guess LARPer is the current term.
>>741342909Is this from today? The dev said he was going to nerf the AI but idk if he did yet since the last time I was on was yesterday morning. They were insanely aggressive, like basically reading your inputs level of aggression while doing perfect footsies against you. You might have actually had fun when they were harder 'cause I sure did
Kotamon really hopes it can be carried by being drawn by a porn artist without actually being a porn gameIts fucking wrong, fuck off
>>741343465That's exactly what you do if you want your work to succeed. Fan artists are more attracted to non-explicit material, making porn for the devs who don't do it themselves.
>>741343595You and the dev should kill yourselves
unholy amounts of AI thumbnails holy shit
>>741343217Just now. Blitzed through it again just for you. But here's footage from two days ago when I first saw it getting mentioned it in the threads. Steam's background recording managed to keep it. Sloppier and almost died, but I killed it faster. The enemies gleefully waste their stamina on the dodges to reposition and on attacks that end up missing, and they have an extremely slow turn rate so they're never able to recover stamina properly and staying behind them is easy.
>>741343663
I don't really see many AI, maybe you play shit games and it recommends you shit demos
>>741343748and how exactly did he measure this if there's no tag for games with ai, only the disclaimer in the games description
>>741344026SteamDB has a "AI Content Disclosed" filter. Though technically, that's only going to tell you that there's a disclaimer and not the specifics of what AI was used and how like if it was generative AI or productivity tools.

>>741341510They don't input read though. Their AI is easy to cheese once you have a solid grasp on your moveset and combo capabilities. What feels unfair are the differences in hitboxes/hurtboxes. The frog vs frog fight was unfun bullshit. I could try to use the tongue attack and it would never target CLEM in the air but he could combo me with it when I tried aerial approach. Felt very frustrating
>Download PC DemoThat's new. It always just said "Download Demo" before. Is this for that thing we're they're supporting ARM games?
>>741346413
>>741346532What the fuck you can control the frog too
>>741346497Nah it's always been like that for some games, though I couldn't tell you what determines it
>>741346497That's what the demo button initially looked like in steam's early days. When a dev is on the publishing form on steam, it will default to that button if it's a demo. If you want the new big ass green button like nowadays, you have to tick a checkbox on the publishing form. Think of it as a way to "filter" low effort devs who can't read.
>>741329217idk I just wanted to highlight those I've spotted in the threads
>>741346704Guess I just haven't noticed before.>>741346826I'm aware. I'm talking about the text being "Download PC Demo" instead of "Download Demo". Steam is unnecessarily weird with these buttons.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3950130/Database_Detective_Minor_Crimes_Division/Not a bad game, but it feels a lot like a game purely designed to teach you sql for dummies. Which is fine because I don't know sql, but it'd probably be annoying if you did.The mission briefing audios go on for way too long and I really hope they didn't pay for them and its just a friend/the developer doing them.

>>741347031Despite looking like old Zelda it locks you in a bunch of hallways immediately without a sword, demands platforming but the jump button is also the dodge button so you have to double press every time, I got stuck inside walls a couple times, if you die you respawn in place but the enemies aren't gone so they just kill you over and over until you get lucky on the timing and run away, the only reward for exploration so far is lore dumps I don't care about, it's generally just a buggy mess that is withholding any possible fun for some eason. It needs to drop the shitty castle intro sequence and let players run around in the open for a while first.

Divine Frequency was some intense shit, god damn. Gave me a good fright at several points while also having me thoroughly engaged in the oppressive atmosphere and satisfying combat. Definitely going to pick up the full game.
>>741350525Is it an immersive sim?
>>741350635Could be. You pick a class at the start and there are a few skill checks throughout the demo but I didn't find any way to raise stats during the demo. You also have a limited inventory and at one point pick a weapon upgrade.
>>741350525It's super cool if you loved the Total Chaos Remake. This definitely isn't reworked in a new engine from the ground up but it's cool in the retro Doom style.
holy FUCK (dungeon settler)
>>741350271yeah that sounds like cancer
>>741347176literally impossible
>>741350752Funny, I played the demo for Total Chaos and thought it sucked. Though it was pretty funny how they gave you a weapon at the start and then had you lose it right before running into the first enemy.

>>741351527It was good to me. I'm not a Doom fan though, but I do like that a great horror game could start in the humble Doom engine.

I hold the first game on high regard for what it was, but can't say I feel any form of hype for the second game with what I've seen so far.

>>741360797The goal is to at least try out 20-30 demos. The results are usually based on the search criteria and method. For instance only searching 1 genre or subscribed curators.

The abilities and inputs feel a bit limited, you can't change direction on a dime and the boost is a bit weak, the maps also feel small and cramped and the enemies slow and stupid, while also spongy. The upgrades are good though, they feel substantial. Some mission rewards are leagues above the rest, making choices too obvious. Mission design is varied and interesting, but could be snappier. The objectives are a tad drawn out. Style is OK but feels unpolished. At least the loading is snappy. Hard to say it needs more time in the oven after six years, so it's probably just not for me. Removed from wishlist, might pick up on a sale.
Looking for anything similar to>souls, MH, Deep Downpositioning, atmosphere, exploration, action, limbic damage, real timeSeparately, something like https://store.steampowered.com/app/3019490/I_Wont_Let_You_Level_Up_In_My_Goblin_Town/and outer wilds(knowledge is progression, time management) Could be full releases, this is for research/inspiration.
I think I reached the end of Dragonsword's demo. You poison the fat guard and then give him an antidote for the ultimate dish.
>>741363376As for Edge of Memories, I have to give up on it because the faces won't render. I tried to play it but faces are somewhat important for a game experience I think.
>>741333227Glad you liked them. I tried looking for stuff that are clearly a cut above the rest or at least looked charming. Theres a few other games I liked but I posted the best ones
tried a few demos, and im dissapointed>drive to meethttps://store.steampowered.com/app/4662910/Drive_To_Meet/i like the idea as a the long drive fan but there is very little to do and it's very rough, for some reason even after pulling the hand brake and shutting off the car it still moves slowly, shit clips trough the car unless you put it in the trunk>witchworkerhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/4678720/Witchworker/all the books but 5 are all the same, and i can't figure out how to cast a single spell, i draw the shape, a circle appears but nothing after that
>"I want Obra Dinn">"We have Obra Dinn at home">This shit was, no exaggeration, seven minutes long and possibly the least inspired a clone can be, I don't think it was even worth the time it took to read its store blurb and download it.
>>741310310>>741310692not a videogame
El Rato
Wishlist>What happened to Penelope RoseBit too many put symbols into order puzzles, but I like it.>Mechanical Granny>Forgotten FluffMaybe>Miniature Land>Almarti:Trade in the WoodsNo>SkyVeilGorogoa clone, I got tired of it real fast, but someone with more patience would probably like it.
>>741363750This one looked very gay anyway, but not as gay as Kernel Hearts I guess.
>>741362963>soulsI haven't played them yet but you could try Mortal Shell 2 or (maybe) Astrobarian.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3760770/Space_Savory/Restaurant manager game with werid/gross out humor. Fun, but a bit much dialogue in the beginning
>>741363750it reminds me of Tales and not in a good way
so far I only like order of sinking star and a couple of incremental slop games
>>741360851That's what I did but I kept going after the game over. There's a running gag where the tutorial lady gets more and more irritated with you if you keep shooting her to get rid of her instead of opening the barrier whenever she comes by to introduce a new mechanic. Pretty funny but the only thing of note in the game.
>Mini Murder MysteriesSimilar to Golden Idol in that you need to collect words for completing the lines of your deduction. But also has some puzzles mixed in. Might need a bit of polishing on some details, but is overall fun.>Case Solved: The London FilesRather simple combination of finding object in a scene, collecting witness statements, and using those as clues to find out what happened. Has some attempts at humor, but nothing too bad.>Make My SandwichYou literally just make sandwiches from clues that your customers give you. Good for rainy afternoons.
>>741309234>make it a card sloppa>pedofy it for the millennial groomers and groomed zoomers>and take out the actual ecchi stuff like her peeing herselfNo, I will not buy that.
>>741309657Have you ever opened an editing software in your life?>>741352348You can't be sued because the neural network is drawing from its memories of millions of images the same way human beings do (that's what makes it a neural network), not tracing or copying anything.You are such a dumb deranged Twitter ape you somehow forget the entire point of neural networks. Do you think it's some miracle data compression that fits all of the millions of images into a 40GB model or whatever? Please take your meds, retard.
>>741315601artists are, how do you say, retarded
>>741365424I hadn't tried that one>>741366263When they call it the "Edge of" series I knew it would be "Tales of" inspired
>>741317729Tried it, this was barely past the concept stage and it ran like complete shit. I don't have high hopes with it releasing in a month
name 1 (three) ww1 biplane games
>>741343672That's so weird, I wasn't ever able to get clem or the last frog to do that turning animation they get stuck in. Whenever I'd knock them down they'd immediately try to hit me with the wake up neutral air lmb or backflip away while instantly pivoting towards my direction. Never seen him jump away from me into a belly flop after knocking him down. You're definitely just better though
I've got a few.>Deep Snow DeliveryDeath Stranding, but in a tank and there's literally nothing happening at all between stops. Slow, monotonousness, and does very little to try and keep you engaged.>Dr. Finklestein's Marvelous RoomJust a shitpost game / walking simulator. Apparently 50 people submitted ideas for objects for you to spawn into the Marvelous Room and they each have a bit. I suppose it'll be less of a game and more of a community art project. It was fine.>VHOLUMESimplified and faster Mirror's Edge parkour in brutalist megastructures. Just parkour and nothing else. It was pretty fun.
>>741368924>>Deep Snow Deliveryain't this from the last fest
Why does everything have to be "dark fantasy?" Why can't we have regular fantasy too?
>>741368686Meant to include that I was indeed making sure to position behind them while they were knocked down duhh I'm dumb. Anyway loved the game and I can't wait to see more, I hope the other characters are cooler than the spear guy and the frogs.
>>741350891that's it, I'm downloading it nowhopefully it will be the first colony sim I will enjoy
>>741369081I blame Witcher.
STOMPIN KOOPAS
>>741368986It might be.
>>741368924Deep Snow Delivery is a niche game. You should know if you'll like it or not from the trailer alone. You missed the entire gameplay despite playing it yourself. Traversing difficulty terrain in a blizzard while keeping your cargo from falling out is fun.
>>741369207it's Dark Souls actually
>>741313186As much as I fucking hate the HLD devs now for selling out and being complete soulless bitches that immediatelly started being garbage after getting some money. HLD is special, you can't replicate that sort of game easily
cheers to the anon who mentioned otterly lost, incredibly cute game!
