WindowKill - $4.99

The most clever bullet hell I've ever played, best experienced on mouse and keyboard.

Windosill - $2.99

More of an interactive art piece. Very short but I still think about it years later. (Some of their other stuff is available online for free and is similarly enjoyable)

Magic Wand - $3.99

Like a surreal, jumbled mess that seems to parody a badly translated JRPG. Another short and sweet experience.

HYPER DEMON - $14.99*

Like a nightmarish fever dream. If you like old school FPS mechanics like rocket jumping and bunnyhopping you'll feel right at home. This one is a little difficult to show people gameplay of because it looks impossible to decipher, but when you're actually playing it and really start to get entranced, it's an experience like nothing else. The way it gives you a 360 fov is an incredible mechanic.
*(It's also 40% off for ~40 hours as of this comment, making it $8.99)

Chicory: A Colorful Tale - $19.99

My favorite game of all time. Adorable puzzle game where you paint the world, with a story about what makes someone an artist. One thing I really like about this is the open ended way it lets you approach creative tasks; It's up to you to decide how much you want to invest, there's no scoring system to gamify the art portions, which is very in-line with the story to me.
Edit: Oh, and a great soundtrack by Lena Raine!

I don't see it here so I'll mention Ty the Tasmanian Tiger! Really fun collectathon platformer. Played through the more recent remaster on PC and realized it's very easy, but I spent a huge amount of time as a kid just running around the maps and hub area.

Transcendental Youth - The Mountain Goats

Title track and closer of one of my all-time favorite albums. The horns are just perfect and the lyrics are beautiful. Makes me think of those little moments of getting lost in something good during bad times, a short escape you know won't last.

Big mushy! Some kind of bolete? I really like the light and focus effect.

Looking up local stuff definitely seems best. Lots of good wildlife rehabs around me, that's usually my go-to.

I don't know if you were around for the launch, but it was a pretty infamously bad because practically none of the promised features were present. Landing on asteroids, fighting space stations, significant factions, big space battles, sand/water planets, complex crafting, creatures affecting the environment, etc.

I think Hello Games has done a great job turning things around, and shown that they do respect their players, but the launch was definitely a disaster.

Pan's Labyrinth
The way it's telling this dark fairy tale with the backdrop of fascism in Francoist Spain, combining real world and fantasy, is just so incredibly well done. It also has one of the most memorably evil antagonists of any media I've experienced, and some very creepy and beautiful creature designs done with practical effects. Everything just comes together perfectly in this movie.

Warframe. Always coming back to Warframe. It's just too fun making my murdermachines look pretty, and there's always something new to work toward. The game also runs incredibly well for how good it looks and how much is going on at once, I should NOT be able to run it at max settings 4k at 60fps with a mid-range gaming PC.
Plus it's really fun getting those big red damage numbers on enemies with the right builds, and I still haven't played another game with a movement system as fun as this one.

I've also been having fun with Armored Core VI, minus the out of place bosses. They definitely just put them in to be like "Look! We have the FromSoft™ bosses!" I ended up making a cheese build to effectively skip them. The actual mech combat parts are really fun though, and I love trying all the different kinds of loadouts! Runs well on a Steam Deck too which is always good.

Just about at the end of the first season, so lots more to see

 

I love Pinc Louds and try to share them with my friends as much as I can, they're so unique and energetic! "Watching Snow" is my favorite song of theirs, but this one has a fun music video to introduce people with so I went with it. They really are a special group and I hope this reaches some new fans!

I like the perspective, really cool!

Oh they're really impressive, Overtime is another great one.

I've really been enjoying Adventure Time lately, so I'm glad to hear this! I don't know why I didn't watch it when it originally aired but I've been missing out; I'll be checking this show out once I finish up for sure.

She made her nest in our backyard, giving me the perfect chance to get a nice picture! The babies fell out a few times and we had to put them back in, but they all made it!
