  • XRY
  • How to be Best Russian Game Developer
  • Call each NEW YEAR
  • Newton and the Apple Tree
  • The Cabinets of Doctor Arcana

Gonna end the week on a game description battle.

I’m always glad when a game has an option menu.

I like that role.

Yeah, this one is the winner.

Also I have no idea what happens to the regular stream of Steam new releases during the big summer sale, this might end up being a once every few days thing for the next couple weeks.

Not even a Steam sale can end the flood anymore.

Thanks for continually sullying yourself for our benefit.

you missed the best quote:

Introduce your family to the fantastic world of video games with Stinky Snake.

It’s also apparently based on a webcomic which… this list is enough for me.

  • In The Long Run The Game
  • The Initiate 2: The First Interviews
  • Fell Seal: Arbiter’s Mark
  • Squirgle
  • Nick Beard: The Fedora of Destiny
  • Nazi
  • Shooting over it : to be a star
  • Machine With a Big Gun
  • QuartoⒸ
  • Core Awaken ~The Yuka~
  • Sphaera
  • Rhombus Legends

Nazi game looks exactly as I’d expect.

Vague Foddy-like looks roughly as I expected.

Kinda disappointed that the big machine with a gun ended up being a car.

The initiate 2 first interviews was on my queue the end.

  • WISGR

  • Up Left Out
  • The Waters Above: Prelude
  • KILLER BACKFLIP 999
  • Amazing Pea TD

I always wanted to defend the light against the dark, unfortunately this has never come up in any other game, book, movie, comic, concept album, children’s tv show or fanfic before.

I mean, I think you technically can call slowdown/bullet time that. People are gonna get spicy over it though, all four of them who’ll stumble upon the game’s Steam page somehow.

I could have swore that 999 got a PC port ages ago.

Hmm, this must be a de-make or something.

I know, I promised I would cut down on making fun of game descriptions written by non-native spea… oh, evidence points to them being native english speakers. Shame about that.

Also I wonder what lovely fox entails…

…nevermind.

Games sell the most in the first 2 weeks, right? Wanted to use this info for something so let’s see those numbers on a couple of these!

Vosaria: Lair of the Ancients - 36
How to be Best Russian Game Developer - 113
Shadow Council: The Puppeteers - 186
Vatnik Simulator - A Russian Patriot Game - 510
Recursive Dragon - 28
Carly and the Reaperman - Escape from the Underworld - 272
Colonumbers - 60

Blueprint Word - 448
Adventure of a Digger

Depressing but not entirely unexpected?

XXX Puzzle is free to play, so I want to think that explains a bit of the disparity.

  • Supesu
  • SUPER KINKY
  • GARAGE: Bad Trip
  • The Official GamingTaylor Game, Great Job!
  • Me And Dungeons

That should be “Dungeons and I”.

Slightly NSFW

  • Fairyland: Power Dice
  • The Chronicles of Quiver Dick
  • Jumpo Joe
  • Hurricane Ship Ghost

Fairyland: Power Dice is basically an absurdly simple take on Trouble or Sorry. I don’t know how you make a virtual board game starring monsters and magic more basic than the one starring pegs, yet here we are. Also the teaser vid on the page is the game playing against itself for ten minutes. I still have so many questions.

Poetry.

  • Muddledash

  • Echoes of the Fey: The Last Sacrament

Oh hey, that’s actually interesting. Still not sold on the name though.

Good to have another entry in the oft-neglected racing squids genre.

Interesting, Hero-U has the school-time-slots-to-invest-in-skills core mechanic reminiscent of Tokimeki Memorial, and turn-based combat. It doesn’t seem at all like a straight retread of Quest for Glory like many of these comeback tour Kickstarters often end up. I might give it a spin

  • Tomato Way 2
  • Maestro: Music from the Void
  • Dust and Salt: The Battle for Murk

Tomato Way 2 worried me for a sec, as I had issues with a previous Tomato game on Steam called I believe Tomato Jones. It popped up on the new release list every other week as it claimed to have a new demo; the game didn’t have a demo. Instead the guy just uploaded a fake one then pulled it immediately repeatedly to get back on the new release list while claiming he ran into some technical difficulties. For some reason it bothered me enough to break my “no snitching” rule and send a report/complaint to Steam just so that I would be spared seeing that game ever again.

Anyways, I clicked on this Tomato game to make sure it wasn’t the same game and came across a mushroom guy with a Hitler 'stache. This feels like a good place to stop.

Mushroom dude does have some good mid 90s PC game cinematic aesthetic going on though.
