A good ol' point and click adventure, short but sweet, with a fun story, amazing writing that had me smile and chuckle throughout, pretty good puzzles, if maybe a little odd to solve at times but then again, usually with the integrated help system that can let you go through something that's too hard for you with the phones here and there along the way.
Honestly can't not recommend it!

As a raccoon, I can only support a fellow masked boi. How could we not help that fluff ball with coming chapters?

Game was incredibly fun, and especially since you could add your own songs that would be analyzed to create a track.
The issue? The servers that handled the track creation died, and so now, you're stuck with what you have offline, which is not much. If you get the game now, you only have integrated songs.
I get servers are expensive, but I wish the dev instead of disappearing and reappearing just to shut things down had either tried to get a community thing up, or given the game the process to create the tracks locally, even if it would just be for your own personal pleasure.

As is, the game is just a dead software, maybe if you already had it you can play some of the last tracks you played that are still cached, but even that I doubt is gonna be a thing, can't even see your *own* score on a track before playing it anymore.

I love that game, one of my favorite song based rythm-adjacent game I had. But now it's just good memories left in the past.

Edit, community is awesome and you cna either use a community server or host your own, that said, this is modding the game, which may not be ideal for everyone.

Doesn't look like much, at a glance the graphics are like that of a lot of indie horror... But they're actually really deeply and carefully set to provide a wonderful ambiance, the fog, the light, the shading, and that's just the surface level stuff.
The goal is simple: Alone or with friends or randos, go into abandoned places to snatch as much scrap as you can to meet a sell quota every 3 in game days. Your obstables? Time, darkness, landmines, turrets, and a plethora of enemies that you'll deal with in various ways, stare at the coilheads, glance occasionally at the bracken, get the fluff out when you hear the jester...
You can use the money you make selling stuff to the company to buy equipment to make things a little easier, and of course being a full team makes it easier, and more fun.
With the places you visit being generated procedurally, it's easy to play again and again and see how many quotas you can complete before the inevitable doom of failing and being yeeted into space for disciplinary procedure.

Fluff crypto, that's all I'll say. Way to ruin a thing made by the community for the community, driving away the people that made the game what it was, trying to erase them and claim all for yourself just 'cause you're the boss ain't gonna make you any money, only kill things further.

You think like you road trips?
Time to get force fed 5000 real-ish kilometers of road trip in a post apocalyptic desert!

In the vain of Jalopy/My Garage survival mode, you start out with a basic, crappy car, with a more or less crappy body and set of weels/tyres. Find drinks and food along the way, including your own waste (or that of others who traveled the road before you, ew), or turn your body into a spare fuel tank since somehow what you drink is what you pee, unaffected.

You'll be able to find stuff to fix your car up, clean it up, paint it, upgrade it, or straight up swap it out for an wide range of vehicles you'll find on your way, from the iconic Trabant 601, the venerable Ladas, the Dacia, not to forget the memorable beetle.
Feel free to create monstrosities being able to stack up poles and other decorations to infinity... But mind everything affects the physics and handling, for better or worse.

You can also now do the trip with a friend, so long as you don't mind an even greater physics abuse sending your car flying and loosing the brand new headlight you just found to replace the 486th one you lost, which was of course the only headlight remaining on your car too.

Jam to a great set of humoristic radio stations, and not just in english, if you happen to speak hungarian or just enjoy the foreign sound of the language. If that's not your jam, tune into the air traffic frequency and hear what the occasional planes flying above you have to say. Or just make your own radio with the custom radio station you can have for your own songs! ...Just mind that everytime you move on to the next track the game likes to hang and send you into a pole.

Oh and also mind the fying saucers that'll kill your engine and every lights around, dreadful at night when you can't see the rock coming to you or brake fast enough without rolling over. And the murderous rabbits. Don't trust them. They're evil...

I loved Risk of Rain, I adore Risk of Rain 2.

It's a perfect move from 3D to 2D, keeping the core of the original game, tweaking things to fit the new dimension, adding more content, the rogue lite aspect makes you able to appreciate more and more as you play without it being really needed for you to try hard to unlock everything unless you want to.

The low poly like and flat-ish textures match the game perfectly, avoiding to overwhelm you with unecessary details while creating a beautiful world you'll love to watch and explore with plenty easter eggs and hidden secrets to discover.
A contrario, the informations you'll be given can get overwhelming at first, having to mind your health, your skills cooldowns, the items you crab, the waves of ennemies, but you learn to focus on what you need quickly enough, then have all the time to learn to master it.

You can chose to go in as a tryhard minmax, or go with whatever you find fun even if it doesn't get you to the boss every time, there's no wrong choice.
It's especially fun with friends, you can create amazing synergies with the available characters (acrid, captain, railgunner, my personal favorite picks).

It's a game you can pick up whenever, play however long you want, and drop, no pressure to keep up with the flow, just have fun!

Do you like spending hours digging into a car's guts to find what part's rusted out to heck?
Do you like dismantling relatively complex mechanical contraptions to then build them back again?
Do you like driving aimlessly on a road trip with no end?

Then this game is for you. It's still far from polished, bugs are common place, but as of this review, updates are quick and bug fixes common too. New content gets added to have more and more stuff to work on.
You do have to do a lot of quickly repetitive jobs to get enough cash to build up your deam car(s) (and now even bike!), take them to race or wander a surprisingly vast world (surprisingly empty too, for the most part), with a surprisingly fast car if you got the parts matched just right (until you lose control and crash into the first tree after the long straight down the bridge).

Or maybe you want to add the thrill of a survival game? Then there's a mode for that too, where you start with a junker you gotta try and fix up to work better with every car you find, while trying not to starve, dehydrate, or crash to the end of your trip down a bumpy road that'll make you appreciate even the bad country roads that are supposedly highway speed (if you are daring enough to risk your life).

Toot.
This game is a living meme that's full of silly fun.
Trombone in the sky will make you want to fly.

I've been living in a paradise
It's awfully nice
If you don't think twice
I've been living in a paradise
Ever since you made advances on me

This game is wonderful, from the acting, to the gameplay that makes you juggle so many things to handle at once, the choices you have to make, one of those rare treats. And now fully released too, ready to fully dive in and enjoy the hours upon hours of quality content.
