RE: https://gamedev.lgbt/@ClarusPlusPlus/116483383426947210

Yaaaaaas! I am so excited that Engima Heart is in Next Fest! Congrats @ClarusPlusPlus!!!

I am so looking forward to this game! Zelda II is my favorite of the 2D Zeldas, so having a game that takes that gameplay concept, and tosses on a captivating narrative with actual storytelling is incredible!

Wishlist it on Steam or Follow it on Itch.io (or both!) to stay in the loop!

Disclosure: I have been involved with the closed playtests.

AAA! In a good way – in multiple good ways! In Mayor May Knott, you rebuild the community in a spooky but cartoony game. I don’t want to add anything more (there are songs… fudge), or make reductive comparisons (it’s like it was made by Double Fine… double fudge), and the final game could turn for the worse or peter out, but the demo is great!

With the big font, good on Steam Deck, too.

There are many games inspired by Resident Evil & Silent Hill. But here we have a more unique specimen: #ParasiteMutant is going after, as you might guess from its name, #ParasiteEve. The game uses an Active Time Bar-like system where you can run around during combat and wait for a gauge to fill in order to issue attacks and other commands. It looks nice and is steamdeckable. I have slight concern over the jiggle physics, tho.

It’s impossible to say whether this type of game will be good or bad, problematic or not. For now, I know that #DreadFields isn’t an actual farming game, but it uses farming as a framing device. Seems interesting, works on your Linuxes and Decks. There’s no gamepad support again, tho.

Late #SteamNextFest recommendation for #AlabasterDawn A gorgeous #PixelArt #ActionRPG (but like, more in a #Zelda vein) from the makers of the excellent #CrossCode. Fun combat, fun puzzles, story seems good, but it's hard to tell from the demo. Also, the demo is a ridiculous 98% positive with 1,561 reviews.

There are a trio of seemingly excellent #Diablo style games this #Steam #NextFest.

#DarkHaven Is an insta buy for me. It's destructible terrain brings something fresh to the genre and It also plays perfectly with a controller on the #SteamDeck

I could easily play this demo all day but I'm forcing myself to stop. 😁

#Crystalfall and #Martyr pretty much require a mouse and keyboard. Neither of them control well on the steam deck, but what little I played they look quite promising.

Steam is flooded with demos for #NextFest so there’s a bit of a slow week. Still, we have some great #indiegame recommendations this week.

Alright, ok, yes, I played it.

I even enjoyed the 14 levels I sped through before quitting.

& Yes I will purchase it.

I know you were all waiting on pins and needles for my #SuperMeatBoy3D take.

He logrado colarme en la Steam Next Fest 2026.

Presentando a “Kuentame”, un plataformas perturbado a vista de pájaro con combate de lluvia de balas. Los gráficos son un poco distintos porque he decidido intentar usar modelos 3D pre-renderizados en vez de fotos editadas para no depender de una conexión a Internet todo el rato.

En realidad ya había usado este estilo hace mucho tiempo… cuándo intenté hacer fangames de FNaF… pasado oscuro.

La demo ya está subida a Steam, y está traducida a inglés. español y gallego:

Steam Next Fest 2025

Este fin de semana he sacado algo de tiempo para probar varias de las demos de la última edición del Steam Next Fest. Si bien no he tocado el cielo como el año pasado gracias a Balatro, si que me apetecía dejar algo por escrito de cada uno de los títulos que he jugado, a ver si le descubro algo interesante a alguien...
