I had this game on my wishlist for a long time and bought it during this sale, wish I had got it sooner. I'm very impressed and enjoying it a lot so far. Returnal, Lovecraft, SCP, Risk of Rain 2 all come to mind.

Its a 4 player coop 3rd person roguelike where you get to pick from 9 elements for your abilities, with each one having I think 6 variations, light attack, heavy attack, support, dash, jump, AOE buff. The elements each provide status effect bonuses as well, like filling the earth status makes the next damaging attack dealt double. You also get synergy unlocks between them.

As roguelikes go, you get upgrades for the skills as you progress, which I've found diverse for what I've seen. Example, I took ice for my jump skill, which makes a platform under you (and for your teammates if you play coop, I'm solo). Then I got an upgrade that gave me 40% chance to refresh the "double jump" cooldown up to 4 times, so I could make a trail of ice platforms up to an optional area in a level for extra powerups. I got a sick chaos boomerang spell that got a stacking dmg buff if I caught it on the way back (it had a return targeting reticle to stand on).

It's very bright and full of neon color illuminating fog, each element has its own color. The soundtrack is dark synth with an 80s vibe like Stranger Things.

I don't have anyone to gush about the game to, so I'm doing it here. It's on sale for $5 for the next few hours and it'd be cool to see more joinable games in the matchmaking list.

A simple platformer where only 1 player in the world can play at a time, while the rest are spectating and waiting for their turn.

You can put yourself in queue and wait for your turn to play, and chat globally while waiting, and play around with all the various silly features meant for spectators.

There's a built-in level editor where you can create levels, and have others play them - your levels will be queued for as well!

A weird experimental game, but totally free!

Hey r/pcgaming, I'm Vincent, one of the producers on Once Human.

Quick context if you haven't run into us: it's a free-to-play strange-world survival game set in a world that got torn up by cosmic stuff. You build a base, craft, capture these creatures we call Deviations, and try not to die. It's PC-native, with cross-play and cross-progression across PC, mobile, and console. If you've played games like Palworld, Grounded, or 7 Days to Die, you'll feel right at home. We just lean harder into the eerie, atmospheric side of it.

Deck Beasts is in Steam Next Fest with a huge update - including Starters, and events system, and a ton of QOL changes.

You can play the demo free now on Steam.

Dear PC Gamers! I'm Simon, a Kraków-based solo developer and the creator of Bad Cheese. I wanted to let you know that my next horror experiment, Kopernicus: Incremental Suffering, has just landed at Steam Next Fest with a playable demo!

This game is incremental one but in a different way... it is roguelite action-driven where by night you fight various monstrosities using flame-based weapons and during the day you expand your base, buy ugrades and drill for fuel. Not mentioning using K3MIX extractor for cerebral biopsy to reagain your memories and.. petting your chihuahua G-1000.

Regarding the art I created for Kopernicus I went head over heels with the limitations: just 3 colors (white, black, and orange), a 480×270 resolution, and no sprite rotations whatsoever. I tried to base everything that you can find in the game on Polish myths, history and culture - so if you are curious of my country you can find a lot of references and even a map of Poland in the Guide section.

What I think is the biggest flamey highlight of Kopernicus is the fact that every monster has its own gruesome (or funny) animation of killing our dear protagonist, inspired by many different games (i.e. classics like Waxworks and Elvira) and things from pop culture. BUT If you're more into the cozy side of horror, you can turn those death scares off. 🌻

If you are lover of: dark sci-fi, flamethrowers, building an ever-growing base, petting dogs, and gloriously gory deaths, this might be your kind of game. 🩸ALSO, important note: support for Steam Deck, Xbox and Dualsense controllers is implemented. Demo includes 5 nights, 7 monsters, 2 bosses, 2 memories, one Endless Mode and one chihuahua - approx 90 minutes of playthrough.

Thank you guys for your attention and I hope it was not too overburnt as this is my first post on this subreddit. 🌱

If you are curious about my drawing process feel free to ask as I might share an interresting video of it (currently I have logged 2,613.4 hrs of drawing in Aseprite for Kopernicus).

Stay warm this Halloween!
