Mine, smelt, build, repeat. Gathering here is a chore with no playful payoff, and the same publisher produces this by the yard.

A raunchy early 2000s comedy in a handcrafted small town. The studio says plainly who the game is not for.

Characters driven by a language model that react to what you do. Not pretty, but very well received, and not for the reasons you would think.

Passenger flow, baggage, refuelling and jet bridges you operate yourself. The brief is met, the ambition stays modest.

An ex-convict fused into a ship, with a sanity gauge to watch as closely as the hull. Out for a year, and unfairly overlooked.

Free-form building, farming seasons and thousand-unit battles in ancient China. Rich on paper, still rough in practice.

14 missions, split-screen, a local arena. An openly claimed homage to the console shooters of 1997, with a story that plays along.

You combine memories to cobble together your own spells, and it works beautifully. The story struggles to match that level.

An accessible ARPG, playable in friction-free co-op, from a two-person studio that says plainly what will be missing at launch.
