Turns out there were a shitton of potentially fun games released in over a month I didn't check steam
I'd mention The Dark Queen of Mortholme, a game where you play as the final boss. It takes my philosophy of "games should make you feel like an invincible force of nature brutalizing every obstacle" to it's logical conclusion. I bet it's one of those "fun in theory" type of things tho. Alas, I still can't play PC games for the foreseeable future
