I know the saying starts with 'shorter' games, but this is about one game in particular

    I personally want more physics simulations. I always loved 2D falling sand games where everything reacted with each other and after a long time not having games with those mechanics i found noita and i can’t stop playing it. As much for the game loop then for the game’s falling sand engine.

      I really enjoyed Osmos back in the day. Like a relaxing Katamari.

        Does it ever go on sale on steam? It’s already pretty cheap but i might as well wait for a discount.

          No idea, I got it on a Humble Bundle about 15 years ago.

      There’s just not really anything else quite like Noita, is there. What a great game.

        I’m 200 hours in with no wins! It’s the first game that’s really grabbed me since I transitioned away from flatscreen gaming to VR a few years back.

          Same. I’m always playing a variety of VR games and noita. But if i could play noita in VR i definitely would XD
          I found this guy https://youtube.com/@grantkot?si=lRNFq8OeSnPm8wOO on youtube that has a great looking engine that has already partly implemented VR he says and i can’t wait to see where this goes!

            Looks awesome, I’ll keep an eye on that! If you haven’t heard of Cabbibo you should definitely check out his work. This one fits in this thread nicely: Blaarp

                Glad you enjoyed it! You must have very good coordination I think my high score is under 30!
