Never even heard of this one. But good for these guys. Love seeing small games blow up.

 

[hemo memo]

That's peak.

 

[M.W.]

Another meme game, of course it did.

There might be more to this one, the publisher who picked this up also published Another Crab's Treasure and Subway Midnight.

There is certainly creativity in the design, but I can't stand how generic games like this and Schedule 1 look.

 

[Hashassin]

I need a finger guns emoji for this one.

 

[SJRB]

Saw a streamer play this the other day and it was literally 4 hours of screaming at each other.

Schedule 1 is legitimately good IMO. Is it the best game I ever played? No. But for $16 or whatever it's a very entertaining game. Giving people meth named Seattle Ass Blaster and mixing it with horse semen then watching them shit their pants and burst into flames is a good time.

Steam is not just littered with shovelwares, it's simply what the majority of its audience crave.

It's not a judgement about the quality of the game design, rather how they all kind of look the same almost like they are all picking from the same generic asset pool. We see this a lot in the work simulator genre too.

WOW another great (meme) game

 

[JayK47]

It's $5 right now. So that helps move copies.

 

[Codes 208]

Same devs as Content Warning and Totally Accurate Battlegrounds for those curious

 

[Guardian Monkey]

I played this with a couple friends two days ago. It's one of those obscure direction proximity chat games. With friends it can be funny.

Another Steam W goes straight to the vault.

 

[Fbh]

Lol, lots of salty people in here.
Never heard of the game but I looked up a trailer and it looks fun. Seems like an original idea that is fun to play with friends ...and it's like $5.

God forbid people enjoy something that isn't a AAA sad dad cinematic game or a soulslike.

 

[NanaMiku]

It seems the current trending genre is games that you play with friends. Like R.E.P.O, Phasmophobia, Lethal Company, Content Warning

 

[Branded]

Pique*

 

[HRK69]

I keep seeing stuff of this guy everywhere, but I can never figure out who he actually is

I always thought it was Paul Walter Hauser lol

AND another crab's treasure.
It's 2 studios coming together to create the game. (Landfall & Aggro Crab)

It was my first time seeing him and had to look it up. Think he's a chef.

Wow. 5m units sold and I've never even heard of it. If it's got good gameplay I'd pick it up on S2 if they release it.

 

[drotahorror]

Saw this the other day as I really think I like climbing games. Well I liked Jusant and Cairn looks great. But I don't have any interest in the co-op aspect.

It is single player friendly. Just have to play more carefully.

 

[Holammer]

Grabbed it the other day, I actually enjoy climbing in BotW/TotK so this game was made for me.
But with me being an antisocial curmudgeon, I play solo. Made it to the third desert biome, where I got killed by something I couldn't see.
Most hilarious death was climbing a tree to grab a coconut, with a full inventory so it bonked my noggin and sent me tumbling down the mountain.

There's a lot to improve on the concept, but I like it.

Wow. 5m units sold and I've never even heard of it.

I suspect there might be a few 'out of nowhere' nominations at the TGAs this year.

It might make things more exciting like movie award shows where people will get to hear about certain games that could have slipped under their radar but are worth checking out due to a nomination.
