That's one big ass sword.

You get what you ******* deserve.

Minit is a brilliant, concise gaming romp that doesn't overstay its welcome or beat its concept to death.

After picking up a cursed sword, you have 60 seconds each life before you die, and this life will consist of opening up shortcuts, gathering items, and helping NPCs to make more options available on your subsequent lives. It's genius, fast, rewarding, and constantly challenges you to think on your feet. Dying is quick as is respawning, and with new checkpoints to start from you never feel like you've lost too much progress.

It's not a long game, but it's the perfect length for its gameplay style. Grab it for a few bucks and enjoy the quirky brilliance of this gem.

I already have a Playstation account and even I know forcing someone to link a console account with their PC game post-purchase and months into release to play the game THEY BOUGHT is total BS. This is especially considering Sony is now changing their FAQs regarding what is required to play their Playstation games on Steam to hide that they're going back on their word.

Well, another one bites the dust.

The best procedurally generated 4 player Co-Op outer space mining first person dwarf game I've ever played!

Submautica is exhilarating, terrifying, immensely satisfying and a truly unforgettable gaming experience.

The progression is fantastic, and the pace of getting new tools and upgrades makes you want to keep diving to get the next best thing to take you deeper down in the depths. The biomes are distinct and fun with memorable and atmospheric music for each, and the creatures you find are all so imaginative and unique. I can honestly say I had a panic attack during one sequence that happened totally arbitrarily that caused me to pause and hyperventilate at my desk for about 30 seconds, and it's now one of my fondest gaming memories. As others have said, the plot unravels very organically and is deep and intriguing, but never in your face. The base building is engaging with just the right amount of complexity, and it made me spend hours getting everything just how I wanted it, something I rarely do in games.

When the game ended at nearly 40 hours, I genuinely felt sad that the experience was over. It felt like leaving a life behind I had built for myself in this world. If I could erase a video game from memory to experience from scratch all over again, Subnautica would be a serious contender.

I know I'm very late to the party, but if you haven't played this game you really owe it to yourself to visit this world.

A simple auto-clicker game but shockingly addictive. Upgrade and customize fish tanks, collect different species of fish and their rare variants as you work your way up through the increasingly expensive and valuable fish packs. As you'd expect, there's not much gameplay, but it's fun to log in each morning and see what your baby fish grew up into. Then you sell the ones you don't want to keep, and buy more. There's not much to complain about here. It's fun collecting rainbow and golden variants of fish, and aspiring to those new fish packs that contain cool, rare fish. Give it a look if you want to check out a chill fish game for fairly cheap.

Taking up the mantle of the Army Men series that's been dormant for 10+ years, The Mean Greens is a casual multiplayer third person shooter in which you play as a toy soldier fighting to secure victory for either the tan or green team. This take on toy soldiers is much more lighthearted than something like Sarge's Heroes on the Dreamcast as you'll be playing in recreations of everyday settings such as living rooms and kitchens while listening to some really charming, cheery music evocative of things like Toy Story play in the background. There are lots of well detailed maps to play on and fun spins on old game modes such as a Payload-esque mode where you escort a hamster in a ball into its cage while defending it from the enemy, or a full size foosball match where you must kick the ball into your opponents' goal. Everything looks great and it really gives this whimsical feeling that no other multiplayer shooter does.

However, there are some sort of strange design choices or afterthoughts that sort of bug me. As far as I'm aware there is no way to switch teams in the game which is killer for a small game like this you and your friends pick up to play together. Also, you start every game with all 5 weapons available to you as soon as you spawn and their ammo replenishes on a cooldown system. An interesting idea for sure, but just sort of strange. How many games let you start out with a sniper rifle, shotgun, rocket launcher, and flamethrower right from the get go? Not necessarily a negative, but it felt like there was nothing to find on the map, no weapons to get excited about or things to unlock. One thing that sort of bugged me was how your soldier just gets shot so unceremoniously. No reaction from him, no gun sway applied to you, and then you just die a quiet death. I guess they're toys so it makes sense but it just comes off feeling unpolished.

Overall for 5$ (Even as low as 99 cents on sale) it's a fun game to hop on with your friends from time to time. There are developers spending millions of dollars and years and years developing games like this so at its best it's a fun diversion to your main stable of games, but the aesthetics and music give a fun vibe that I haven't seen in a shooter like this in a while. Plus, how many shooters can you play giant foosball in while you kill your enemies?

Monster Loves You is sort of like a choose-your-own-adventure book where every playthrough you shape your monster over the course of their life by making decisions, interacting with your fellow monsters, resolving conflicts however you see fit, and eventually helping the monster society react to a watershed moment for their species when they reach a pivotal point in their community. I won't spoil what that moment is, but how you've lived your monster life will change what you're able to do when that moment comes and decide the fate of the monsters and the future of their world. The art and music are very cute and catchy; No animation here whatsoever, just still art and background music with sound effects. It can be fun to play through multiple times and see what decisions you didn't make previously and what different ways you can affect the outcome of the game. There are achievements to earn for certain endings and outcomes so there is some extra incentive to do this. A normal playthrough takes maybe 30-45 minutes so if you know you're not the type to play a game more than once then it's definitely not worth the money, but if you are then I think you'll get a lot out of this game.

It's a cute little adventure game that let's you explore themes of community, solidarity with those around you, accepting people for who they are, resolving conflicts in ways beneficial to everyone, and what it means to be part of a group. Definitely some good lessons in there for everyone. Check out out.

Jazzpunk is the type of game you start up and are not at all surprised to see is published by Adult Swim Games. In fact, I'd say this is the most "Adult Swim Games" game of all time. It is totally bizarre, hilarious (in short bursts), and really unlike any game I've ever played.

In Jazzpunk you are typically dropped into an open world area and given a task, but the real fun comes from exploring and interacting with every little detail in these sandboxes, some of which can hide jokes, little videos, even entirely new levels and mini-games within levels. I won't spoil anything but the mini-game gag based on a classic FPS had me literally laughing until my jaw hurt. There is some semblance of a "story" but to be honest I don't remember almost any of it. I remember a lot of memorable jokes and gags and really that's what you're playing this for. The gameplay is next to non existent, but more of a theme park of unusual nonsequiturs, references, and segments that will leave you asking what drug the developers were on when they designed it. It's super weird, really funny, and not terribly expensive on sale. I think I've finally seen just about everything it has to offer at 4 hours and there's also an extra DLC level for sale for a little over a dollar on sale. Wish I could comment on the "Director's Cut" aspects but this was the only version I played. I felt like there was a lot of content for what I paid and if you are into this type of humor it is definitely worth checking out.
