This game completely flew under the radar and i think its sad. The game in itself is awesome, completely original goi like mechanics, with a lots of nuance to the movement. Workshop support, not that hard to get into, you just need to know how to move and place object in unity.

Unique, procedurally generated maps
Each region of the game has its own flavour and procedural generation palette. Yet even within a region, no two playthroughs will be the same.

Chicken Defender
Fun and short game. The game consists only of a couple levels which vary in difficulty. For the price just perfect, pretty polished tbh.
I would say there was a lack of weapons, a couple more would be fun. Also, the goal for the last level was 100, I got 26,000, that can probably be tweaked. But overall fun time, thanks developers.

A $A1.50 well spent. Good graphics and sound.
Thought this Tower Defense title could be a walk in the park - after getting my bottom spanked my first 4 tries, I am happy to amend that thought. I particularly like the fact that the game advises you, and shuts the level down when you are not going to be able to meet the level requirements. I can see that I am really going to have to think the levels right through.
A terrific value for money title.

Sky Journey - Jigsaw Landscapes
Simple little jigsaw puzzle game that I actually found very addictive once I had started; playing this while listening to podcasts helped me to unwind and it distracted me from the existential dread of existence. Few minor bugs but nothing that halts progress. Great to play when you’re slumped in a heap and only want to exert the energy of moving one hand. Recommended.

In essence this is a puzzle game for the younger gamers.
The images are of the family friendly variety.
The art itself is not bad.
Several difficulty choices.
Music is alright.
Due to lack of puzzle “levels” I would only recommend on a steep discount. Got this game with a bundle myself.
As a challenge for myself, in progress of 100% the achievements as of posting of this review.

EBE
EBE is an action-adventure game set on a planet in the Lyra constellation. The player takes the role of a small extraterrestrial biological entity (EBE), who recovers a strange micro-device from a humanoid alien lying dead in his crashed flying saucer. Using this device, the player will be able to connect to an alien network, solve puzzles, see distant locations (some of them on Earth), and bring back to life alien entities to contact the player himself.
EBE takes you on a visit to another planet teeming with life, from strange PSI energy-producing plants to small insect-like creatures. Everywhere you can find remnants of alien civilization: old buildings, antennae, and communication devices.
Elephantasy
This is an utterly charming traversal-based metroidvania!
The world is colorful and interesting, but the surprising thing is how impeccably designed it is. It’s a compact little puzzle of a world, and everything is set perfectly in the right spot.
If the fun of games to you is exploration, asking “how do I get up to that spot?” “that tile looks strange, I wonder if I can do anything with it?"…then this is 100% your game!

This game is very nice and solidly done. It’s a “metroidvania” in the loosest of the sense that doesn’t really focus on action or combat, but instead on simple and engaging platforming puzzles. The item system is interesting in the way that you can access all 4 at the beginning, but only one at a time until you expand your holding capacity, which allows access to areas that require multiple items. The game is very slow-paced, almost too slow at times, but that’s exactly why you can change the game speed rendering it a non-issue (I prefer speed 3). Lastly, the graphics are cute and adorable with nice colors used throughout despite the art being very minimalistic.

Dune Sea
A relaxing side scrolling game set in a visually attractive world, with a soundtrack that promotes a calm and casual play style.
Controls feel more natural using a controller as opposed to a keyboard and are indeed solid. The only issue I had during play was the camera placement, which is a small negative and doesn’t take away from what this game is about.

Dune Sea is a wholesome, zen little side-scrolling game where players take on the role of a Goose trying not to fucking die, well at the same time bringing back some life to a desolate desert.
The soundtrack is helps me get in the gliding mood, the controls are floaty but not too unruly and it’s got a quite beautiful low-poly world. If you’re looking for a game to kill an evening just zoning out and flying this is your game.
