So this game is coming out on the 24th, apparently it’ll be rimworld-like but with dwarves also…?  https://store.steampowered.com/app/930230/King_under_the_Mountain/ quote:A simulated world – The game world is built on a series of interlocking systems which combine together to simulate a living, breathing world. As night changes to day, trees and plants will grow (or not) based on sunlight and rainfall. The local environment and changing seasons have effects on the native flora and fauna. Your settlers and other characters have their own personal social and physical needs that you’ll have to fulfil to keep them happy (or at least stop them from breaking and going insane!)

It was kickstarted literally years ago, I remember seeing that KS and deciding not to back it for some reason.

really stretching the definition of "fresh" here... edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HInWXVtSyT8 Exo One is a bit cool but a bit short. It's on Gamepass if you want to try it for free. ymgve fucked around with this message at 18:46 on Nov 26, 2021 |

They also have a website where you can download the game (and source code) for free, and donate via Patreon. The website says they also sometimes accept direct one-time donations, but because the organization is based in Finland, there is some law about how you are allowed to accept donations and they currently are not running that kind of donation campaign. https://revolutionarygamesstudio.com/

I never expected to have strong opinions about hidden image games masquerading as RPGS, but here we are. Somewhere in between, I would say. It still has the painfully unfun combat mechanic, where you need an almost endless supply of various potions to make progress through large chunks or the game. But at no point did I feel the need to spend a bunch of time buying eggs, cooking omelets, and selling omelets for a 1 gold profit each time to advance. You do need to be wary of selling ingredients, because of the potion mechanic, and there were a few quests that are frustrating because what should be a vendor item is actually a drop/find item. Looking at you flour.

Generally I still prefer the Supercross games because there's a bit more fun and intrigue with all the timing in the jumps, but this one is pretty fun too. This is from Milestone who make a bunch of AA racing titles. quote:All the power of Motocross in your hands: the new MXGP 2021 is finally here!

There's a few other good ones, too that are kind of similar. Tetrageddon, Pony Island, Hacknet are all really good. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1329790/Override_2_Super_Mech_League/ https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/256815993/movie480_vp9.webm?t=1608656154 This game looks amazing in terms of graphics, and some people seem to really like it. But others are upset the the controls seem to have been dumbed down from the original.

Plus these games are complex in a way that makes it very hard to just throw man hours at them and come out with a good product. (If it were easy you'd see far less out of nowhere hits with 5 years plus of constant work from microdevs like Rimworld and far more AA studios pushing out very polished product, like card battler rogue-likes). Then there's the decade+ headstart Dwarf Fortress has in implementing features.

I played through the tutorial for Mechajammer and died like four times before finishing it lol. Surprisingly though the final obstacle course I cleared first try. It's basically a mix of real time and turn based where the enemies move when you do so it's kind of live, kind of not. I couldn't figure out why the gently caress none of my shots even from point blank wanted to hit anything. Just bad RNG or was I doing something wrong? Ended up just braining most enemies with the wrench which seemed pretty reliable and did more damage besides. Other than that there were some cool things there and it does look very nice although I can see myself getting a bit bored of the palette.

Archvale is a really solidly done top down shooter. Nuclear Throne RPG is probably how i'd classify it, though it's a little more bullet hell than the speed of Nuclear Throne. Also on Gamepass.
