In this era of uncertainty, I wanna share some Indie Games I played over the last year and can recommend. Share yours in the comments!

Little Misfortune — a narrative horror with simple puzzles and exceptional voice acting.

The Hong Kong Massacre (80% off) — extremely hard shooter with slow motion. One bullet kills you and there are dozens of enemies on each map.

A Short Hike — you are a bird, climbing up. Will you reach the top?

Blacktail — on a magical forest a young witch is looking for her sister. But the evil spreads its roots and even stones are going for a war.

En Garde! — action-platformer with a bit of souls-like in it. Humor and rare swashbuckler era make it memorable.

Steam should buy more servers 😬

Their Servers Official Stats: https://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/ — they peaked at 38.9 Tbps.

Modern people have no idea what a 45° rotation is...

Only 5% in my case — all of them were demo projects and "Find 100 cats in". This year I bought 0 new AAA games.

The new loading screen for Steam Deck and Big Picture!

Think twice before launching a multiplayer game. There's a very limited market for them. Same with Helldivers II (thanks to PlayStation locking 180+ regions), same with Deadlock from Valve.
