I’m not sure what this is beyond an “infinite, procedurally generated PSX-styled city”, but that’s plenty for me:

“Investigative horror game"My Work Is Not Yet Done(coming to Steam, with a demo there now) sums up my weekend as Scotland received a whole month of rain in one day:

You could’ve told me that browser-based MMO Hordes (coming to, like, your browser) was actually vintage World Of Warcraft and I don’t know if I would have caught your lie:

Airship bombardment is cool, Quarter (coming to Steam, with a demo there now), but I must say I’veseen wilder spell animations:

Speaking ofdiegetic HUDs, I do like the third-person camera view being a drone link you can accidentally break inExo Rally Championship(coming to Steam):
your rover has a couple nice 3rd person (drone!) cameras … as long as you don’t break the camera link off the roof#ExoRallyChampionship#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/Qok3r6Jjxs— Jay Weston - Exo One/Rally ⚫️🕳☁️🏎️ (@JayWeston)October 7, 2023

A lively enemy in “open-world Lovecraftian spacefighter RPG"Underspace(coming to Steam):

Unfollow (coming to Steam) sounds like it’s built on a theme that a horror game could make a right hash of, but I am curious with the devs saying, “The issues we want to address are extremely personal to us, and regardless of whether a more traditional ghost game would sell better (according to [demo testers]), this is the story we feel we should tell”:

These tightropes in Kristala (coming to Steam, with a demo there now) would’ve blown me away 23 years ago:
