It looks fine to me, though there are a few spots where it looks like I'm missing characters? One of the last lines looks like this:

That's a long zine again! I'll bookmark it to read it later. Thank you for compiling these, there are always some cool, unknown games to be found :3

Does the python code show correctly? It looks messed up on Piefed for and does not let me edit it.

Game seems cool, blog seems great. Its nice to not be drowned in ads and have an easy to read, minimalist layout.

Fuck everything about Death Stranding. Piece of shit walking simulator won't even let you pause the game unless your character is completely stopped and has a balanced center of gravity. Wholly disrespectful for the player's time.

edit: walking simulators are fine. Death Stranding is trash gameplay.

Slop

Puke

Hard "no":

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this: Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation and refinement of some game content and assets. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and integrated by the development team before being included in the game.

The game looks beautiful, its unfortunate to hear it can be annoying to explore

I had the same issue with Hollow Knight, but eventually pushed through because of the visuals. Might try to do the same here.

I thought "objects" was a euphemism. It's not, nothing illegal here.

I used to have a 128-in-1 cartridge. In reality it was only about 20 games, with the remaining entries just having ridiculous names. Still my favourite cartridge. There were some gems on there like Wario Land.

"(Neofeud) is all about the grungy digital sidewalk art, the exhaustively detailed ideas, the cyberpunk lore... so good in all its expressive, soul-soaked junkiness" --Neofeud reviewer store.steampowered.com/app/461 #indiegame #indiedev #retrogame #scifi #art #artist

I'm not alarmed, but a bit suspicious, and the PCG article words it better than l:

I'm a little tired of dancing to the tune of algorithms, and I wonder too if some people won't wind up missing out on cool stuff that maybe falls outside their usual areas of interest if they're only presented with what Steam knows they're likely to buy.

I don't like what happens with too much algorithm, and Steam already has a lot of algorithm.

Any opportunity for the small game devs to get more exposure is good.

I would have thought that they were doing that already.

The main page has a small section recommending things based on what you've played, but the rest of the page is the same for everyone.

and every player will see different discounted games

This is worded badly on purpose to make you angry. The discounted games are the same for everyone. The difference is which ones are shown to you on the homepage.

Valve says that from early 2027, Steam's Discounts & Events area will move away from manually scheduled placements towards something more dynamic and personalised, with each player seeing a different set of discounted games. Unlike the dynamic and elastic pricing currently being tested by Xbox and PlayStation stores respectively, Valve's approach isn't about changing prices. It's more about which games get shown to you.

So basically, the prices are the same for everyone, but which sales are displayed on the homepage will differ from person to person?

That's pretty normal, and I would have thought that they were doing that already. That's useful personalization and it's fairer to developers who might not have been selected in the curated lists.

Meanwhile I didn't know Xbox and PlayStation were doing that. I wasn't buying anything from them, but now I know to look for shenanigans too.

Here's a better article that is not written by AI:

The important part: no dynamic pricing.

That's charming and I bought it.

Yes I agree the pixel looks very nice and does not fit with the promo art.

The promo art does it a disservice! The pixel art is really good

"No exaggeration, the best Point & Click game I've played. ...a cyberpunk dystopia ruled by corporate feudalism... I loved it from the very beginning to the final credits." --Neofeud 1 Reviewer #indiegame #indiedev #retrogame store.steampowered.com/app/461

Is being ambidextrous a super power now...

I love singleplayer 2-6 player only card games

:/ confused..

looks fun regardless.

@sem You can start Neofeud 1 or 2 first. They have crossover characters and organizations but it's not necessary to play the first to play the second.

@the_fuckler Thanks a lot!
