Its quite rare these days that PC developers ever release free benchmark tools for their new games and even more impressive that this is from a Chinese developer who's only experienced in making F2P mobile games :0!?

My rig & benchmark:

CPU: Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4
GPU: RTX 4060
RAM: 32GB
vRAM: 8GB

default recommended settings: 105 FPS
with low raytracing: 77 FPS
with the lowest DLSS resolution: 137 FPS
highest settings without raytracing: 49 FPS

This was a fun early access multiplayer game with a very neat roguelite extraction PvE mode that I enjoy playing back in late 2022...now nearly 2 years later, the developer is pulling the game from Steam because they're implementing crypto NFT garbage effectively killing a potentially good game forever 💀

Succubus 2069 is a "A Sensual Action-Adventure Shooter with a touch of SoulsLike combat" which sounds cool on paper but suffers from terrible unplayable optimization & poor stiff 3rd person shooter gameplay.

Honestly this game needs to cook more and there are better adult orientated shooters starring customized sexy women out on Steam that are free.

Mage Kanade's Futanari Dungeon Quest is a short simple Zelda like H game where you play as an adventuring female mage who turns into a futanari and must defeat a group of succubus to escape the dungeon.

The game has some REALLY good H visuals and animations that are very well done and difficulty wise its easy for the most part(game only takes less than an hour to beat). However IF you add the uncensored patch that adds additional enemies and one extra boss, the game is a bit more challenging(especially area 4's boss and area 5 boss rush) although it also includes a few more H scenes and a longer extended ending.

If you're a fan of H games and also don't mind futas in them, this is definitely a fun little game for you to enjoy although I would wait for a good sale as its 24.99 price is a bit high due to its short less than an hour length.

Shadow of the Erdtree DLC/Expansion is basically more Elden Ring content which is a new overworld that's roughly HALF the size of the base game's overworld. Also be prepared to died a lot again like the base game because this DLC/Expansion will show absolutely no mercy so make sure you explore a lot and collect as many Scadutree Fragments & Revered Spirit Ashes as they are essential to survive these new enemies & bosses.

Somehow this simple meme clicker game that just has a picture of a banana has over 780K players surpassing Counter Strike 2 & DOTA 2 as of typing this review. Supposedly this game has been accused of being an NFT crypto-scam but it seems to be more into abusing the item pricing of the Steam Market with rare cosmetic banana drops which you can't even use!? Honestly sometimes I don't get some people here on Steam but hey more power to them I guess if people actually enjoy wasting 3 to 18 hours a day waiting to get rare cosmetic banana drops 🙃🤣🍌

A nice looking randomly generated classic cartoon FPS game which sounds cool on paper but really feels like some kind of prototype that was slap together in a few weeks with really bad unbalance issues(starting at 1 HP, projectile enemies spawning near doors, can't pick up ammo after switching to fists when you run out of ammo, etc). This game REALLY needs to cook some more because it feels unfinished even after moving out of Steam's Early Access :(

NOTE: Despite the "Metroidvania" tag on the Steam store page, this game is complexly linear and only has elements of one with a map, save points and weapon/equipment upgrade progression.

Now with that out of the way, Genopanic is a pixel art "Metroidvania-inspired adventure-platformer" with some inspiration from Metroid Fusion & Prey 2017. However its really more like an action platformer pretending to be a Metroidvania but with some steps. The game starts off very slow until about halfway through the game when it gets interesting but game kind of ends abruptly after the final boss. Difficulty wise its a very easy game with very simple puzzles and 4 bosses that were disappointing to where 3 of the bosses were easy to cheese due to their simple attack patterns.

Honestly this was a hard game for me to review because I did had fun with it despite my skepticism after playing the prologue demo but with its 15 dollar price of admission I have extreme difficulties to truly recommend it. Hopefully the developers will either update this game with a hard mode difficulty or make a more challenging sequel(maybe as a TRUE metroidvania game with actual non-linear exploration perhaps?) because there is really good talent in them :)

One of the best Metroidvania games I've ever played with some of the most beautiful pixel art environments and a LOT of puzzles with some that requires really big brain moments with whatever tools that you've acquired though out the game 🧠

Also this game has cute and scary animals 🥺😱

A fun cutesy soulslike mixed with 3D platforming that's great for soulslike veterans and newcomers alike. Also I love that a few amount of enemies, bosses and locations are clearly inspired by Elden Ring 💜
