Phos
You play as a robot colonizer that has been sent out to an alien planet with one goal. Harvest its resources and send them back home. To accomplish this you must build a base on the planet. As your base develops you will be able to build more advanced structures to harvest at an increased scale. And eventually you will be able to accomplish your goal to start sending resources back to your mother planet. But the native inhabitants of the planet won’t sit idly by as you strip their world of its resources.

Pendelum
This is addicting, the good way
A great game, it has a wide variety of levels already in the game to play offline and train your skills. You will need these to break your and other peoples records. You can go bonkers with the level editor, a fabulous tool to sink in for hours and then challenge people online to beat your levels - the only limit is your imagination, and skill.
The game is challenging in just the right way to be motivating and frustrating at once. I cant recommend this game enough, espacially to people that like puzzle and physics games will be able to spend many, many hours in this.

Pendelum is such a neat concept. Although I admittedly don’t have much experience with physics-based puzzle games, I’ve never played anything like it. The level design is quite good, in general. I liked the feeling of simply moving the pendulum (as it has a certain weight to it), and in trying to maintain enough height to maneuver with some precision. I decided to pick up Pendelum so that my co-op partner and I could play through the three sets of levels designed specifically for co-op play.
However, I do have a few gripes. First of all, it’s just a bit too punishing for my tastes. Levels come in sets of four, and if you don’t complete the whole set in one go, you’ll have to start again from the first one in the set (even if you’ve made it to the final level). There are also no checkpoints in the levels themselves. This omission is more forgivable - however, some of the levels are quite long. My co-op partner and I failed repeatedly on the penultimate level within the second set of co-op levels, and then put the game down until the following week. We picked it back up again, made it to the final level, but again failed repeatedly until we became exhausted with the game.

Der Geisterjäger / The Ghost Hunter
You know the expression “handling something with kid gloves”?
Yeah, Der Geisterjäger does - except its “kid gloves” are boxing gloves with horseshoes in them.
Basically, DGJ is a mecha dungeon crawler that not only isn’t afraid of being “unfair”, it actually incorporates savescumming as a canonical ability for your main character - something like precognition from Katana Zero, if you will. “This is only a dream” is a sentence that, if you, like me, are not a particularly sharp tactical mind, you’ll get used to seeing. A lot.

Der Geisterjager is a lot like Der Geisterturm, but better in every way. More enemy variety, interesting environmental challenges, and new hazards to deal with that aren’t mines. Along with quality of life improvements you should expect from continued development.
The single most important change is the addition of the credit system, you gain money for killing enemies now and the credits allow you upgrade your RCS as you see fit at repair stations dotted about the dungeons, creating an agency that the previous two games lacked while providing a much greater replay value.

FATAL ERROR - RTS
We see few rts games being created recently, just new versions of the old ones. Fatal Error came as an excellent surprise for the genre with a unique model and amazing themed. Something I missed was the opposing player’s score to be able to position himself and know what the situation is.
Anyway congratulations on the excellent work!

The game is fun and reminds me of old times rts game, specially the OG C&C game. The game has many levels to play and many units to make after each lv. Its even has the lv where you start without any base but only few defensive n offensive units. The only think thats need improvement i can see is the unit movements. Its a bit sketchy but not that bad.

Devader
Devader is a twin-stick shooter that would feel at home in an arcade cabinet. In it you combat waves of bizarre and awesome enemies to defend a hexagonal matrix from destruction. While there’s no dearth of these type of games on Steam, Devader has several interesting components that make it stand out. The first thing most will notice from looking at screenshots is the aforementioned enemies. These otherworldy foes are called the Krin, and they are every bit as impressive as they look. There is a huge variety of them as well, probably well over 100, many, many more than what is usually found in this genus of game. There are least 15 different bosses alone. Contrast that to Cuphead with its 19 bosses and nothing else (okay, there are a couple of non-boss stages in Cuphead), and you get an idea of just how expansive the menagerie of monsters here is.

Addictive, intense and hypnotizing !
That’s how i can describe Devader in three words. 😄
Right after getting the game i ended up playing it 15 hours in four days, so for someone like me who’s pretty stacked with way too many games to play it’s a good sign !
It’s such an awesome game, quite hard and challenging but so rewarding once you complete a tough level.
The artstyle and graphics are beautiful with gorgeous 2D sprites mixed with 3D elements.
Devader is probably one of the the most visually intense game i ever played, it’s ecstatic.
