I have decided to spend the evening digging through Steam's #NextFest to see if there's some gold among the competition Wish me luck ok

First one is called Revive! Onsen Town! It's a farming sim about making friends in rural japan While it all does look very comfy, it's also missing a little bit of polish. The 2D animations are sometimes a bit off and it lacks controller support. Could be a good game with more time

Second game is a RPG called Passion It's basically neo-noir earthbound. I kinda like the general vibe of it (and the option to have a "stoner" difficulty) But you have to beat up a lot of squirrels to get anywhere in that game. Like a lot. A whole army of squirrels

Valkyrie Iteration is a raising sim about coaching a mecha pilot Stat management is pretty straightforward. The evangelion mood is really there and I love it. The demo makes a pretty good job at hinting toward a bigger story I really like it so far. Some of the pixel arts are quite neat

Cactus Flats is about tending to crops and shooting bandits The music is quite nice and the little western town almost makes you want to settle in the desert Sadly, there's a bit of screen tearing and the controls feel very unintuitive. I hope they will be able to fix that before release
