    Psychonauts 2. Was a huge fan of the original on PS2 and I can’t believe it’s taken me years to try the sequel. The animation, level design, and writing are all at the level of quality and creativity that I wanted to see videogames progress to some day when I was a kid. This is a playable DreamWorks film.

    I picked up quite a few games - Deathsmiles, DoDonPachi Resurrection, Mega Man X Legacy Collection, Mushihimesama, ProtoCorgi, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds Saga, TMNT Shredder’s Revenge and Ultrakill.

    I’ve only played ProtoCorgi so far and I kinda love it - I mean, you’re a corgi, barking or shooting lasers at various enemies in space, what’s not to love?
    I’ve already played most of the other games before and wanted to own them on Steam, except for Ultrakill (and I’m really looking forward to that one).

    Started playing #BLUD, I’m only about ten minutes in because sleep got the better of me last night but it looks pretty good so far.

    Backpack Battles. It’s an inventory management based auto-battler. Chill game and I like spatial puzzle a lot.
    The game uses the Godot engine and it runs great on the deck. The UI is very smooth and thoughtfully designed.
    A neat thing about the battle system is that it’s fully asynchronous. No matchmaking delay and it even works offline. I believe it works by preloading a number of opponent-builds at the beginning of the run.

    Bought Dicey Dungeons as a good one to play on Deck. I can run it with the TDP on the GPU set to 3w, which increases the battery lifespan impressively, while still running great! Plus the game itself lends itself well to the deck I’d say.

    Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor. Logged in at least 21 hours in it. It’s also at that price point where you feel indifferent if you don’t like it.

      I picked this up about 2 months ago. Took me about 100 hours before I could put it down.

    I got an OLED the other day and splurged hard during the summer sale.

    I got Stray and Little Kitty, Big City to show off to my cat-loving GF, and for me I got Dave the Diver, Sifu, and Babu is You. Also picked up Hollow Knight for good measure, but have yet to start it. 9 Sols, Mullet Madjack, Warhammer Boltgun, Baldurs Gate 3, and Return of the Obra Dinn all on my wishlist.

    Bought Everspace 2 (but on GOG) and so far it’s playing great, even though power consumption is still quite high. But it’s great for a session of about 1-2 hours, which I am fine with. Otherwise still playing wandering Village from the last sale and a bit of LotR RtM.

    Fallout 76. Got hooked after watching the show and went through the previous 3d games back to back. Also bought Undertale but haven’t fully committed to that one yet.

    I bought two games:

    • The farmer was replaced - a simple Idle game, where you need to use a Python like code to automate a farming drone with farming hat that is doing the farming for you and the complexity of the tasks is increasing progressively. This game is in early access and has no discount but the price is 7€, so hardly breaking the bank.
    • European Truck Simulator 2 - because it was just 2€ and it looks chill, even though I am not much into car racing games.

        Yes, it is a cool little game, definitely worth the consideration for experienced and beginner programmers.

    I bought Balatro, Neon White, GRIS, Rollerdrome, and Pentiment. They’re all under $15 CAD and I’ve sunk a few hours into Balatro already

      I bought it when it released and loved it, very cleverly designed and works perfectly on Steam Deck. Also just for fun, try swiping across the touchscreen…

      Consider refunding and grabbing it for free from epic in a few days? Granted that would require you to tinker with the deck a bit to install from the other stores besides steam, if you’re up for it
