Remember to post your favourite demo, as well as your favourite demo that isn't a ripped off, based on, or inspired by a popular title. Something completely original. There are plenty of those, I assure you.

>FINAL WEEKEND
don't you mean only weekend? it's monday-monday

This was the last straw. Don't go to Ratatown Square tomorrow.

don't really know what this one is about but I will try it anyway because I'm not a lamebrain who judges everything by it's cover. games can surprise you sometimes.

Play >her game.

>>712573345
We were all fest-ing for like a month since the link always leaks.

Now that it's almost over, what are your top 5 demos?

>>712573930
I didn't like five demos

Prioritize the ones you actually want to try because there is a real possibility the devs take them down at the end.

Like they fucking did with Seance of Blake Manor. Twice. I cannot believe they took it down the day before next fest started. If they are so adamant about me not playing their game than I might just fucking agree with them.

>>712573856
It's only an extra week so half a month.

>>712574037
Oh, I didn't notice that one was taken down. I played the demo a month ago and it was really neat.

nevermind, I just found it, it was a locked door with 4 fucking switches above it
man they really should give some kind of outline or something to those things, they blend too much with the environment

I know it's a >deckbuilding roguelike

but the division of battle and camp cards makes it interesting, along with very exploitable combinations that encourage you to make broken builds. And the presentation is nice, has a bit of Inscryption to it.

I liked this more than I thought I would. Pretty decent take on the survivors like thing and made me use my brain a bit
Also tried Morsels and Undermine 2, Morsels was pretty but I worry about how much content it'll actually have and Undermine was a snoozefest honestly.

Sorry bruv I went to work.
King Static. Its SHOCKINGLY (hue) bad, but dev seems responsive to feedback.
I like the feel of the gun and fist-gun weapons though

Not part of Next Fest, but this is very recent and has a demo.

I'll group up the similar games so it'll end up being more than 5 games, I can't count anyways

Surprisingly funny game i couldn't give a shit about the horror part
>Windswept
Reminds me of SMW on the snes for some reason
>Dead as Disco
Sifu/Arkham style combat that syncs up to the music, very cool

So, I played a bit of fire in the dark. Not bad. A game worth getting for $2 when it's marked down 90%.

Rather blunt about this one being a metaphor for trauma. "revealing your traumas". heh. You know, it's funny. Humans always overcompensate.

Our forefathers went through World War 2 and lived in a world where it was not encouraged to talk about traumas, although it might have done some good back then, for some people.

These days everyone is encouraged to constantly share their traumas, but...they don't really have any, do they? They didn't have a world war. So we're left with games like this, where their dog died. Newsflash: Everyone's childhood dog wound up dead. it's not overly notable.

>>712576903

Does Little Rocket Lab have some kind of woke stain or hypocritical message about capitalism/pollution, despite literally being about making a giant rocket?
I saw it on one of those Wholesome Directs, and I don't trust anything shown there.

>>712579807
Good Ass yes, but not even close compare to Tempo. Speaking of which, heard the demo goes public next week.

Anyone here tried this demo and got their controller working? My PS5 controller is spazzing out and I can't even navigate the main menu with it, whether I enable steam input or not. Was looking forward to trying this...

>Tormented Souls 2
>Holstin
>Phase Zero
>Scarlet Lake
>Flesh Made Fear

Any other classic style/survival horror game recs? Out of all of them Tormented Souls 2 and Holstin are my picks. I kind of already knew the former would be good but Holstin is surprisingly decent. Scarlet Lake needs work I think. Didn't care for the tone of Flesh Made Fear.

>>712579807
what game was this
I think I wishlisted it but I forgot

>>712578814
This. The unfortunate reality is if you buy a multiplayer game at these festivals it'll be an indie game that gets 40 players on launch and 0 players two weeks later. They're literal wastes of money. The only multiplayer games you should get are big releases by major companies because they're guaranteed players.

>But if you don't normalize buying small indie multiplayer games they'll NEVER get an audience!
Not my problem.

Jocaste has the whole package though.

>>712579807
Just finished trying the demo after that webm got posted last thread.
Game is fine, but procedurally generated individual square rooms to shoot stuff in can't hold my focus at all.
Gave it an hour, hot large robo women are not enough motivation sadly.
>>712580432
Moros Protocol.

>>712580421
SSR Wives was cool.

>>712579807
Dev should really work on optimization, like sure I play on a toaster, but it is not a game that should be bottlenecked by even my CPU.
>>712580108
Nothing so far? If anything the characters only complained about businesses going under because barely anyone visits the town now, but that didn't seem to be tied into capitalism/pollution yet

>>712580565
I downloaded the demo because of her and I can absolutely understand it's not for everyone. You have to really like the slow methodical FPS/Souls gameplay to put up with the admittedly boring space station square rooms. Maybe it'll change things up in the full game, who knows. In addition to the Big Ass Lady I also like the visual look of the game so I'm down to get it as long as it's not super expensive.

It plays literally nothing like Souls and I never played it slow either.
It was just an easy romp between samey rooms over and over again

>>712581003
Slow in the sense that you're not strafe jumping through rooms like a boomer shooter and souls-like in that there's stamina on your melee and dashes. There's degrees to these things and by some standards the game is very slow, even if you're playing it "fast".

I dunno I found it about on par with the other 6 roguelite FPS shooters I played in terms of speed.
Sadly none of which were actually good.
Half of which had the same basic story

Why did Devolver promote Ball x Pit so much more than Shroom and Gloom?

>>712580482
>truxton
>not good
What happened? Its the only game I care about downloading now, do you like the original?

Black Raven looked nice but it's not my genre. I imagine it's a 10/10 for people who like that genre though.

>>712581223
>Undermine 2
I tried it and it's so fucking BORING
How did this get a sequel, the gameplay is lethargic comparing it to its contemporaries like Isaac. Is there something I'm missing or just not getting??

>>712582524
nah, no worries. I didn't play the OG. it doesn't look that nice, but it's solid

>>712582730
Gotcha yeah the 3D is not ideal but as long as it plays like truxton it will be a blast to me

>>712582675
but binding of isaac is an old game and Undermine 2 is as new as it can possibly get, since it's unreleased. In what way are they contemporaries? you're not making any sense.

>>712582675
well, it's not Isaac, duh.
It's one of them slowburning gems. Similar in that sense to Undermine is Enter the Gungeon: if you force yourself to go on and unlock more items the game begins to shine like a supernova.
I deeply love original Undermine, it is very cozy and yet fun

This game was a solid "no...just no" from me.

Hotel Barcelona was not good.

>>712580375
Just use keyboard it controls fine that way. Also
>>>>>Using a ps5 controller on PC
You get what you get with that.

>>712583301
>You get what you get with that.
yea a controller that works with 95% of games without additional setup.
it's not 2017 anymore

Ninja Gaiden is fun and I can see how it's trying to capture the spirit of the NES games, which is good, but I'm disappointed at the music. None of the tracks are like the OG NES tracks.

>>712580837
Tempo seems considerably more likely to actually sex you, whereas this new girl seems more like she'd just kill your ass. So you know, whichever you perfer.

>>712580108
Worst I've seen is how tumblr diverse the village is, with whites, blacks and even a headscarfed muslima

I skip all the dialogue though

Exciting boss fight.
Really forced me to test all my skills

>>712582919
>it's like EtG
Well no wonder it's so boring to me then, Gungeon is ass too. I'll admit the game at least looks "cozy" but then they should have made something that's not a glacial action roguelite if they wanted to go that route.
>>712582816
Isaac is the gold standard. Also don't play dumb, Undermine 1 came out in 2020 and Isaac was still releasing expansions post release.
It's going to get compared especially when it uses the exact same map/key/bomb and passive/active item scheme.

Really enjoying this demo.

okay retard. Well Undermine is the Gold Standard+infinity+platinum+1. That makes it better.

hideously ugly art style is the first thing I saw when I looked up your game. major turnoff.

I am once again asking for a creature collectan/battlan game like Aethermancer but not roguelite.
>>712575246
What's under the smallmouth bass?

Brave X Junction had good gameplay, but nothing else. No plot to be seen anywhere. you gotta have a little bit more to it than just RPG battles.

Eriksholm was probably good enough but I can tell the release day price will be too high.

>>712585369
ok

>>712585597
yea that will be its issue
They cant lower it though, just look at the quality of VAs and cinematics

this tickles my autism
for some reason it has multiplayer, and it might actually be... good?

>>712573059 (OP)
Skateboarding in first or third person view is the best way to travel from one objective to the next! Feel like busting some tricks along the way? Simply ollie with SPACE and RIGHT CLICK and DRAG your mouse in any direction to spin and flip your board. (X to jump and RB + RS for controllers)

You can do impossible spins and triple, quadruple or even octuple kickflips and heelflips!

Or just pop into first person view and cruise around listening to the birds. It's all part of being a kid in 1996 in

>>712585369
My man is seriously trying to pretend he doesn't know Issac.

>>712585771
I need to try this one, only because I need to relearn networking.

>>712585969
It's a fifteen year old game with graphics that look like they were made by a five year old. you're overestimating it's reach.

>>712582319
You will understand soon
I have no idea if that's the solution, I went to sleep after trying and decided to not bother till full release

This would have potential if it took itself seriously, it wasn't buggy and it didn't just boil down to QTE spam

>>712586448
Isaac is an indie cultural phenomenon, I say that completely unironically.

>>712586648
whatever man your game looks like ass and I haven't heard of it.

>>712586448
You are unironically saying that about the game that started the Roguelike trend chasing that has been going on for that whole 15 years. (And the misuse of the word roguelike, besides). Quite possibly the single most important indie game since Cave Story. You aren't just living under a rock, you're at the bottom of the Mariana trench

Doctor Viscera goes in the maybe pile. I think I started off with some really bad RNG. It's a stalker game where you get insta-killed if he catches you and the first time I played he killed me so quickly I thought it was a scripted cutscene or something and got really confused.

Anyway it's too much effort to play right now. A maybe game, like I said.

>>712586808
How is that possible, genuinely

What do we think of Possessors? You play as a disabled woman who gets possessed by a Twilight vampire.

>>712586851
You are clearly just naming games that look like absolute garbage and making up silly backstories for them. I thought Binding of Isaac looked bad, but this one is just RPGmaker platformer trash.

>>712587350
>>712585745

Are these the kinds of games the people who go around calling AI slop like? I gotta say, no one who likes these has any stones to throw about bad graphics.

back in my day bait used to be believable.

I think I found a real candidate for worst demo in the festival. I didn't even get past the first "puzzle". I actually reccomend downloading this demo just to see what I mean about how insanely retarded this one was. It'll take you less than five minutes.

>>712587313
Huh, I thought it's a yaoi game.
At any rate, I'm not sure I like dashing being a hold button action tbqh.

>>712587313
Yeah I don't like it. What were the other Devolver games? BallXPit?

You know this one could probably be better with come changes to the pace and other little things like making it so the protagonist doesn't feel like he's wading through molasses but as it is I'm passing on it.

>>712590447
Sex.

This one sure sounded cool but when I played it, it was a lot less cool than it sounded.

>>712588221
seems like a very generic puzzle game to me. what did you consider to be the first puzzle? the key wiggling or the levers? the keys worked for me just by spamming the inputs randomly, and the levers are just a standard lightbulb puzzle.

Tower of Mask was pretty neat (a bit CPU heavy seemingly). Thanks to that anon for the rec.

>>712591840
The key thing. I didn't see why a lock would have two keys. I didn't see a slot. I wasn't sure what the point of rotating them was. I took one look at that and decided the game was dumb.

>>712573930
In no particular order:
>Lost in Prayer
Traditional Roguelike where you unlock classes by possessing various demons/angels that killed you.
>Devil Spire Falls
Open World /v/ermincore RPG.
>Mecha Simulatrics
Two retards in mechs pick which moves or attacks to use on each other and when one of them wins you get shown a real time recording of the fight.
>Hunters Inc
Modest Monster Hunter with orcs.
>Dungeon Mori
Fairly simple turn-based dungeon crawler but looks cute.

Just got done with the Three Wishes demo. I was sort of expecting that "game is not what it seems like" thing, just with lolis, but those endings still caught me off guard. Might just check out the devs other games.

>>712586473
Yeah, got it using that setup yesterday

this one was not bad I guess, but the sigils for the regions never fucking matched the regions in my handbook. So I had to go through every region every time because I couldn't quickly narrow it down by which town the adventurer came from.

And for that matter, I didn't know how loot worked. Does a monster have to drop all the loot it has, every time, or could it have dropped different quantities sometimes?

I ended up just approving adventurers with big tits and got fired. I suspect the dev may have anticipated my strategy of preferential treatment for the large breasted.

Ninja Gaiden was a bit of a disappointment. It falls a bit too much into the "modern retro game" trap of giving you the new gimmick "I win button" (the super slash that kills everything) and then making the levels in a hyper specific way where you have to play the way they want you to play.
>Here's a big monster
>Look here comes the enemy that gives you the super slash!
>Uh oh another big monster
>Luckily here's another enemy with the super slash!

It feels more like you're playing a speed run level with a set way to beat it, instead of a typical retro game where you're given your tools and it's up to you to figure out how to use them to beat a set of challenges. There's also the obligatory "invincible dash" which is like a bandaid for "we don't know how to design our levels and enemy AI, if we fucked it up just press the whoopsie doodle button and you're fine".

>>712592465
yep, i have the feeling the game won't be very replayable unless you're a speedrun autist.

>>712592430
They only need one drop from the monster. I think the only demerit I ever got was forgetting that loot from stale quests don't get accepted.

Surprisingly fun snake-like game where you avoid hazards and collect your soulless mechadragon friends to get to the level's exit. This game like sinker sound reminds me of something you'd find on the dreamcast. For being a simple arcade game it has very nice art and music.

>>712593335
He's going to fucking hate it. I expected more from Dotemu but I guess they don't have much experience in pure action platformers.

still so many demos to do but I will pull through.

might need to speedrun them though. other people are assembling their bestof lists and I am still rummaging through the trash

This was pretty good except for the rather bad attempts at humor

good for a few chuckles but not wishlist material. the intro song was neat, but I think the game really kills itself by not being pornographic. What's the point of a game where you rail your girlfriend but never get to see it?

Yokai Hunters showed me the main menu for a few seconds, and then immediately crashed and closed. I guess we're passing on this one. It was a multiplayer oriented game anyway, by the looks of it.

>>712594267
I said the same thing a few threads prior. It really looks like a porn game, on the surface.
The dev team is full of chinks, and half of them are women, so I guess that's the "why".
I hope someone rips off the game and makes a porn version

>>712594790
Forgot to actually link the dev page.
https://www.battle-brew.com/about-us

Couldn't get past the title screen on this one either without it exiting on it's own. All I got to see was what looked like a funny joke where the raccoon keeps up pornographic posters of human women in his trailer.

why would anyone even bother trying to download this goyslop for furries?

>>712573612
I made the way down the list to this one and I actually expected it to run poorly, or not at all, or be in chinese, or something. None of that happened. It ran properly and was perfectly readable. Short, though. Beat the whole thing in eight minutes.

But it was good. Another hidden gem discovered. Praise me for my most recent find now.

>>712595771
I don't know what any of those words mean but I downloaded it because I wanted to see if it was good or not.

I'm terrible at rhythm games but I think there's a lot of stuff going on besides tap to the beat so it's pretty interesting and funny

lumina veil is a horror game, you get a pipe not long after starting the game and it can be used to permanently kill enemies rather easily. at least walking doesn't feel like a chore here but it laso feels rather simple, lost interest when I couldn't find where to wash the bloody finger

steel carnelian starts as a rail shooter but that doesn't last much, you move in 3d and have to avoid enemy attacks as you kill them. Feels fine mechanically, art style is fine, though animations are stiff. Not really my kind of thing so I didn't get too far, but I have the feeling it'll get preachy at some point.

>>712595832
Don't reply to brown people, anon

Psycasso will be good once they finish working on it. as of right now, not so great though. good structure. a game with good bones.

Is there a way to tell which demos are vanishing after Monday? I haven't had the time to try everything I downloaded

I'm looking for new Diablo-likes

>>712597089
The vast majority don't vanish, usually the ones that do are from bigger publishers.

Thanks anyway fren I will continue searching. For what it's worth I'm pretty sure one of the devs said this is a self-contained vignette that doesn't actually take place in the main story.

does anything change when you play as the other character?

>>712601227
I doubt it. I might give that a shot tomorrow though because I think there's one or two things left for me to find anyway.

>>712598350
Robosexo. But also, how in the fuck does air tricks work? It says you have to time the button but that doesn't work, I tried mashing and that sometimes works, is it like mashing and timing together?

>>712600820
Same, I definitely getting a Minish Cap feel from the game

>>712601545
You gotta hold the button and time the lands just right on blue or gold.

>>712601682
There's even little mouseholes that definitely looked like places you might explore later in the game

the concept is alright but the actual rhythm game part kinda sucks even beyond the music selection.

>>712601182

>Dead as Disco
First game I tried of the fest and definitely my favorite. Similar to hifi rush's beat em up synced to music, but this one lets you import your own music which lets you do a lot of fun stuff. Even now, a few days later, I keep opening it up to try out more songs. Full game seems to promise a much more in-depth editor which I look forward to. Wishlisted. P.S. Try Train Roll, it works strangely well: https://files.catbox.moe/iytxtg.mp4

>mecha simultactics
Love yomi so a mecha version of that sounded right up my alley. The isometric style and destructive environment is great, but the controls feel clunky. Rather than just having all your moves onscreen you need to constantly go in and out of menus to get to your move/attack/special movelists. Still wishlisted, I'll keep an eye and pray they improve it.

Just tried this and its really cool, but holy shit I am bad at it. What am i supposed to do with the timed circles? Ignore the reeling in and just focus on those?

>>712600948
im fuckin stuck. these are the ones i have:
medallion in the ice
medallion from the book case
medallion in the forest
now i'm confused. i'm missing a key for the coin box and i have no idea what to do in room 999, with the trippy walls and the screens everywhere.

Dead as Disco is VERY deceptive.

Rhythm-based Sifu+Hifi Rush sounds good yes. But their actual music selection is shit. Just play the demo for the import song function.

>>712573930
I really enjoyed Unbeatable and wishlisted it
TerraTech Legion and Let Them Trade made my wishlist too
Era One is a little rough but very much worth a watch because of its combination of Homeworld and custom ship building

>>712606490
You have to move the mouse (use m+k) which controls a shield to block the projectiles. If you let one hit, your reeling gets canceled. And if you try to only reel when there's no projectiles, the line tension will fall aand the fish will get away. So you have to do it all at the same time.

>>712606760
I got that part, its the third mechanic where it became too much. Did you ever try to fish in the cave? there are these shrinking circles with countdowns on them you have to click.

>>712606208
I read about that reason. Still, I think her canon ass is downright grotesque. Makes her look straight up obese to my eyes. The ingame rump is just the right pear shape for me.

>>712574350
The only Tamashika reply lmao

>>712606908
Oh that. You can actually release the reel in time with the circle, not just start it. Hold on 2 release on 0 is better than holding on 0 if your tension's low, and if it's too high then you hold on 0.

>>712606559
I never figured out the coin box or Room 999 but they're not needed to finish the demo. Assuming you've found a quarter by now that's all you need to get the last medallion. Everything else will be right in front of you.

They're all pretty simple though. The worst one is the 4 number code that corresponds to the hats and cards.

If you like JRPGs, definitely check out Quartet
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1307960/Quartet/

This is retro JRPG with some Octopath Traveler style branching stories; only a small bit of one story is playable in the demo (aside from a prologue of sorts), but its very well made. One of the mechanics of the turn based combat is that you can actively swap your reserve characters during battle! They teach it to you in one of the encounters, where none of your attacks are working on an enemy until you swap a character who has one capable of doing so. All the characters, in or out of your combat group get XPs; these devs are good at cutting down tedious shit, but can still build challenging encounters. The story and setting is also interesting; I'm curious where they're going to go with it.

The devs, Something Classic, are particularly based, were supporting Linux back when it was less common, and overall make (and produce) some solid titles. Their big previous game was Shadows of Adam which is one of the better retro JRPGs (also worth playing and dirt cheap now) and they put effort into it, including a DLC expansion w/ NG+, optional super dungeon/superboss, among other new content; they also have a 90s style digital strategy guide which is neat. Based on SoA alone and my interactions with the devs coming to Linux gaming sites to ask for people to test etc.. its the kind of thing I want to support, but even without all that Quartet seems to stand on its own merits so give it a shot

>>712593437
Speaking of Snake-likes,
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1487270/Last_Command/

Has an excellent snake+bullet hell battle system. The game has been out for a little while, but its DLC expansion, which directly follows up the story of the base game, should be coming out in a few months.

I'm surprised that The Scramble Vice doesn't have a demo for Next Fest. Its arriving this year, this would have been a great opportunity.

Ninja Gaiden Ragebound is just not up to snuff even though I was excited when it got announced.
I was pretty sure I was going to like Davy X Jones so I saved it until just yesterday but it was so half-baked. The combat just sucks.

Tried Jupiter Junkworks
My computer gets very warm playing this game which is very funny because its a tetris game with a billion glowy effects going on, I assume its because its not limiting the framerate at all. hopefully something they add by release

The good thing is devs more than every make their demos available past the Fest and for a good portion of them with the "No license" error, you can get around it by going to the local files and manually running the .exe file. The demos you can't play, most of them are not going to be games you would want to buy anyways because of how inflexible the devs were.

>>712617010
There's a subtle difference between a fat ass and a genetically blessed ass. Both are full of grease, but the proportion in regard to overall fat and upper body is different.

There is no such thing as "normal" regarding the fatness of a ass, it's literally a relative, cultural and even ethnic perspective

It changes with the beauty standard of the time, which has never been static. Long time ago, the fittest butts were considered peak beauty, but today that is no longer the case.. For many, the bigger the better.

>>712598350
>>712601796
It's pretty fucking good but it takes a while to click. That being said it runs like ass on Deck (thanks unreal), the track design is kind of fucky specially the city, and it's ruthlessly punishing. There were times where I couldn't get out of 10th cause I crashed a few times at the start, or a bot took 1st from me and no matter how perfectly I played I couldn't catch up. Kind of odd to base winning only on score, but whatever.

If you've played it you know exactly what I mean. Don't be daft. You click boxes on a map and then click and drag and then click some more boxes. The most filler of filler gameplay.

>stop hiring youtube niggers who just do their normal voice.
Ha get used to it.

did you try out mycopunk anons? seems neat but I don't feel like there's anything that can make it stand out from other coop shooters

>>712622278
>Don't be daft. You click boxes on a map and then click and drag and then click some more boxes. The most filler of filler gameplay.
Its not the most indepth gameplay in the world but parsing the call log to determine who goes where, deciding who to team up, choosing which of their dumb attributes to level is not "clicker shit" you ape.

This blight absolutely warrants a new tag. "Horde survival" or something, anything. Even if most of them have some tag in common, filtering it comes with a lot of false positives.

>>712622739
Yeah. It's drag and drop shit, fucko. Get it right.

>>712622414
I thought it looked cool from trailers and was considering getting it, but after playing it feels like a watered down risk of rain 2.

It has a lot of issues, and I mean a lot, but I love high fantasy RPG beatemups like you wouldn't believe. Unfortunately it's a niche within a niche, so I really have to take what I can get here, even if it's pretty bad as a beatemup. The other two fantasy beatemups in this fest - one kinda like Golden Axe and one that's more of a Saturday morning cartoon vibe - didn't click with me at all.

The MC of Sinker Sound has big dreams.

It takes a while getting used to the main rhythm reeling mechanic in Sinker Sound, but once you do get used to it, the game becomes awesome. I really love this kind of experience where everything is incomprehensible at first. Reminds me of driving cars in real life. Games from completely different genres that incorporate challenge through rhythm tend to be excellent. Crypt Of The Necrodancer, Hi-Fi rush, Bullets Per Minute, even the demo of Dead As Disco as of very recently. I love videogames.

Truxton is awesome, going 3D for the models was not the best idea but they nailed the gameplay, the game is more dynamic than the original as more bullets are on screen at once but they are a bit slower so it feels more fair and you need less memo, the og game was memo heavy
Gonna buy it

>>712607378
Hey, I played Tamashika too a few days ago. First time I ever felt physically sick to the point of throwing up because of videogames. Years and years of skipping motion sickness warnings, to finally understand why they exist. I enjoyed the gameplay though.

No, dum-dum, feedback loop is faster on discord. You can have a real-time dialog there, clarify something quicker, get all the points.

devs are also literally killing themselves and sunk all the eggs into one basket for this venture:

>Three years has passed since Laura and I released the first Alpha Demo and decided to quit our jobs to fully focus on the development of Echoes Of The Living. Back then the game we had in mind was WAY MUCH SMALLER, a short 2-4 hours game with a simple story that was identical for 2 playable characters.

>The game has evolved into a 2 campaign experience with an average lenght of 12-15h per campaign with unique stories, characters, weapons, locations, bosses... We are finally getting to our goal and we couldn't be happier!

>This change of plans brought a lot of challenges, sacrifices and added an insane ammount of stress to our lifes.

>Sadly the game suffered from a huge slowdown early this year, due the lack of sleep, proper alimentation and working under high loads of stress, I suffered from various health issues, one of them was a stress ulcer that didn't allow me to work for almost 3 months, so Laura was the only one working on the game while taking care of me. After that, our efforts had to be doubled in order to keep things up with our schedule.

>>712626806
It's easy to keep adding, but difficult to cut something you spent time on.
When there's no concrete budget nor time limit set in advance, things always get way out of scope.

>>712623017
unironically sad that I have more faith in redditors to put out a quality game than anons on /v/
when you see stuff like this it really puts matters into perspective. People who make shit like noturbel shouldn't be allowed to voice their opinions on videogames if this is what they put out.

lol gotem
It's not like anyone cares how long the game took to make or what suffering the devs went through anyway, only a small amount of players will ever have heard about that.

Pigface is well-presented but its not really fun to play. I expected stealth mechanics or manhunt style kills or something since it has the same basic premise behind it and vibe, but its just a really basic fps with regenerating hp.
I just sprayed with M1 on everything and beat it with no issue at all. Don't see the point of the melee weapons.

The Metal Eden demo felt off, sure they got their visual polish and artstyle down, but something about their mix of fast paced combat and power-up system didn't vibe with me. You're forced to save your heart ripping for armored enemies because the guns they give you aren't meant to deal with armor, but that means the entire mechanic of throwing heart grenades gets completely ignored

Why didn't you guys tell me that there was a Touhou Souls game demo available?

The Yoram demo would have been a promising mystery VN if it wasn't for all the small bugs or issues detracting from the experience. If you paused the game to save, you got locked (and of course save erased), some UI elements were still in Korean instead of English, among others.
You can also softlock yourself during a confrontation. It's a shame because the visuals, music and writing were great save for a few typos or weird sentence structures. I still wishlisted it and I hope that they will polish the demo at some point. Main character and premise were very interesting. If you want to give this a try make sure you have like 2 hours available to play non-stop

>>712627482
You could use detective or investigation tag. Sure not all games from them are Gold Idol-likes but no doubt it will run down the number of games to look trough.

Gave it a try. I didn't care to spend time actually figuring out the controls and tried to jump to the other side of my boat which would have worked but there's an invisible wall stopping you. So I tried to just over the side of the boat and drown but that didn't work either. There was nothing else at sea with you so I had no frame of reference to determine if I was moving my boat at all. It was plainly a walking simulator prologue but I didn't play it long enough to trigger the cool apocalypse stuff like planes falling from the sky around you.

meh. not a great showcase demo. maybe the game is better beyond the prologue or maybe it isn't. who knows.

Morsels just somehow hit me on my sweet spot of gameplay loop I enjoy, I will be buying this when it comes out. Same could be said for phase zero but it still has the possibility to fuck up but I will buy it otherwise. Mina was alright other then the controls which felt kinda fucky but we'll see. SD2 was way too simple for me to want to put money down on it but I like the idea. That's it.

this demo seemed specifically designed to kill all possible hype for the game. It was just a trailer that spoiled the game's whole plotline? I know it's just a derivative anime plot that I've seen before, but I'm still not going to be invested if I already know exactly how the first five hours of the game play out? total blunder. they had no faith in their game so they tried too hard to showcase everything.

Oops forgot to mention ninja gaiden, the criticisms I've seen on here were stupid as fuck. I say this as someone who played and beat the ng games on the nes as a kid. The game is made in a way that they make you defeat the enemies in a predetermined speedrun order or some shit? That's the criticism lel? Maybe if you are a retard dumb fuck, just bum rush the enemies like you would the nes games and optimize when you can you obtuse fuck.

I missed the fest because of Stellar Blade...
Any good platformer?

>>712631108
MotionRec is a nice 2D puzzle platformer, the gimmick is pretty interesting, could have potential.
AEROMACHINA is a 3D platformer with great movement, you start off a little restricted but the more upgrades you unlock the better it gets.

>>712631108
You still got time

So this one was interesting. A lot was going on here at once. They had that 2.5D Sprite thing like in Octopath Traveler, but 3D backgrounds, because that chandelier behind Kudlack is 3D and swings back and forth while she talks.

But they also went with the fixed camera angles from Resident Evil. The gameplay is generally ResidentEvilish with searching for the club key for the club door and the diamond key and so on. That might be a first. No one is really doing the fixed camera angle thing outside of survival horror. Fixed Camera RPG? When you walk around the castle, there are random encounters in typical RPG fashion.

It does have some problems with the camera angles, because it isn't using tank controls in conjunction with them. With the fixed camera system, movement really needs to be determined by character direction, not camera direction or it fucks up. That's an easy fix though. But also, sometimes the doors just aren't visible so you have to remember where, precisely, you walked through, or else you can't go through the door again. Resident Evil always made sure to make the doors visible on-screen.

Still, good enough for a wishlist.

why do devs always keep= that fuck ing ugly default unity font

Thanks to the peeps who recommended Sinker Sound. Shit's actually really fun once you understand all the mechanics

Do you like After Inc anons?

Personally I can see the improvement over Plague Inc and Rebel Inc, though I worry I will encounter the same issue of little to no replayability like I did with plague inc

Any card battlers?

>>712632439
Wait. I thought it was just some rhythm game.
It's also a 3d exploration adventure fishing game?

>>712631518
NanoApostle
Robot Girl's Dream
AI Limit
Dolls' Nest
Nine Sols
I am still thinking about GIRLS MADE PUDDING, though I might pirate it first then buy it if I like it enough
>>712632439
Yeah, I was surprised how enjoyable it is

>>712632607
Into the Grid and Royal Writ.
You might also find Drop Pockets interesting, but it's a billiards game.

>>712623227
I had fun with it but I'm worried its going to end up CONCORDED with the full release since it has a price tag. Also demands way too much teamwork for a game that defaults to turning of voice coms and forcing crossplay

>>712632661
Not really much exploration. There's just a cave you can go into alongside a few other areas. Main focus is still the fishing rhythm game

>>712632725

Keep in mind that it's actually just a VN, and an unvoiced one at that. The story also gets pretty retarded in some shoddily written sci-fi parts.
That being said it is also extremely comfy, I love the two main girls to bits and the ending completely redeems it.

is it usually lthat there are more high quality porn games than usual games?

>>712633085
That's a shame, I thought they would make resource management harder than it was in the demo. I will try it out anyway because it gave my Girls' Last Tour vibes, thanks for the heads up!

Holstin is really fucking good

At Sixes and Sevens was a good detective game. wishlisted

this one was decently spooky but I don't think it's a game for me, overall.

def buying Pigface and void/breaker after this one.

>>712635129
I mean the name is written right in the picture?

who was in the wrong here?

>>712631585
We're fucking getting Space Balls 2. Any IP people might be nostalgic about is in a open consideration for bringing back.

If anyone played Verho here, where the fuck is the Poison Lake mechanism the rune merchant talks about?
If anyone hasn't played Verho here, download it so you can get to the rune merchant and find the mechanism for me.

Poska Gurom!

Oh shit, I remember the original from this. Guess he who lives by the isekai truck dies by the isekai truck

i have to choose between these two depressing games. which one should i pick

>>712636076
the one without the wojak but ideally neither

Horror games?

>>712633417
It's really nice but the handholding is way out of hand desu
the paint is a bit too much in some places but I can close an eye, but this is fucking absurd

no games with cute feet

sometimes i post things just to make people mad

>>712636221
I changed my mind, it fit when it was in a build site or as grafitti but this is someone's fucking home

>>712635907
It cuts off once you discover the cargo.

>>712631518
I bought Haste

>>712636203
All shit. Every single one of them.

This entire Next Fest just showed me PCgaming is in a pretty bad place

Woudl've bought this but it has too many ngrs and muslims

>>712598798
????
It's still there.

Sensible defaults in 2025.

>>712636590
by the way, forgot to mention
the game is there is no plan b

>>712637806
Oh nononono

>>712636590
I'm certainly mad there's no demo for this gookslop.

>>712631518
I'm still waiting https://store.steampowered.com/app/2105620/Sektori/

To be the presentation and gameplay feel too mobile. Like you mostly click on buttons in windows and pop-up and the visual response to your actions is rather minimal at beast. I do like how it's not another grey wasteland post-apo with no lush green in sight,

in keeping with my stance on playing games to determine their quality level, I will now play this one

I liked it. What if there was a fixed camera angle for every corner of a room? You could feel like a true voyeur.

>>712631518
abiotic factor

>Wait years and years for the first non-Shovel Knight game out of Yacht Club
>Finally there's a full demo available
>It's a GBC Soulsborne with jumping
Well damn. Clearly well-made but not what I was looking for.

>>712573930
1. NG Ragebound
2. Dead as Disco
3. Absolum
4. Demonschool
5a. Break Shot hero
5b. Disaster Arms
Only demo I think could move this that I haven't played is Uppercute.

>>712627562
ALTF4'd it pretty quickly. what a shit meme game

Is there a site where devs post concepts for games? I mean no assets/placeholder assets and just gameplay to see if the concept is even enjoyable?

>>712631518
Last one I bought from a Fes was Yasha.

>>712631518
Pygmalion
Of the Devil
Lingo 2 (even got Lingo 1 cuz of it)

Everything else still hasn't come out yet. I'll probably pick up Metro Gravity and Mushroom Musume when they come out next week

meh. pass. gotta say I really donut give a fuck about elliots mental issues

>>712638924
>It's a GBC Soulsborne
I mean it's only a soulsborne in that it has legally distinct estus and picking up your legally distinct souls after you die. Not quite fair to dub it a soulsborne and write it off just because of that.

>>712638292
What is this breh

>picking up your legally distinct souls after you die
Which is something that Shovel Knight essentially had as well

I've seen multiple people recommend the artis impact demo but when I go to its page I see no demo, am I missing something?

>>712631518
quite a few, waiting on many to come out

next thread here once it stops being bumped
>>712639797

>>712639797

>>712639797

>>712639180
No. Every dev is 100% sure that their concept is the next best thing and doesn't need any feedback.

Did robot girl's dream ever improve its music? I liked it but I distinctly remember the music was just bad

>>712639768
Dev removed it lol. you can only get his spa spin off game now

>>712640053
Damn, that's lame

>>712640053
unhinged nooooo
i just looked this up after anon posted that and it looks amazing

>>712639180
kickstarter?

>>712639682
The presentation of it in Shovel Knight definitely made it feel like more of arcade/NES mechanic, even if games back then probably never did that. Mina's implementation is just straight up soulsborne soul/rune recovery though.
I was surprised you even have to sometimes kill the last enemy you fought cuz I've only seen that in NightReign which just came out.

>>712640306
>I was surprised you even have to sometimes kill the last enemy you fought cuz I've only seen that in NightReign which just came out.
Wasn't that a Bloodborne thing? It was also in Souls and Sanctuary before Nightreign.

>>712640909
Possibly, I've never actually played either of those desu

>>712635543
If anyone actually pays to see SpaceBalls 2 then they have to be absolutely sub-human
Mel's message fell on deaf ears

>>712609836
not into jarpeegs but I like the colors
