Roxy Raccoon
Editing my review as I have played more and the dev has already updated some prior problems and is working on more
I am still playing through this, so my opinion may change. The game is indeed cute with a simple but enjoyable story line. There are many raccoons and other animals to enjoy. And the game is a lot bigger then I expected, lots of levels, unlockables, and hidden secrets. The music is pleasant and fitting, and I see no issues with graphics.
However, this game is not without faults.

Roxy Raccoon is a 3d platformer about collecting gems and gold stars from a variety of levels. The gems are like the music notes from Banjo Kazooie and gold stars are the jiggies. You get the stars by completing challenges like races, stealth missions, catching an evasive rabbit, or finding enough hidden objects.
This game is made by a solo dev and he’s very responsive to feedback so be sure to send him some love.

Shield Cat
Shield Cat – the Game!
Shield Cat is a game starring Lance the otter! He is a mail courier for the Cat Kingdom, delivering official letters and packages. One day, Lance wakes up and finds that the Cat Kingdom is in chaos. What’s worse, his friends seem to be responsible! What dark magic could be at work here? Lance will need all the help he can get on his adventure, both to save his friends and to save the Kingdom!
Abilities
Along the way, Lance will find abilities that can help him on his quest. You can equip and upgrade these abilities to enhance Lance’s strength and allow him to use more tools on his quest. Here are just some of the many abilities you can learn:
-
Tubular Twister: Lance’s spin attack! Use this move to get over big gaps, attack enemies, hit gears and levers, open treasure chests, and much more.
-
Shield: Lance can throw his shield to hit enemies from far away. He can also use it to solve puzzles, and upgrade it to give it more distance and range when he throws it.
-
Cards: Lance throws a continual stream of cards from a seemingly endless deck. He can use this ability to take down multiple enemies at once.
-
Dagger: Lance can aim this dagger and hit enemies from a great distance. This ability is good for people who like stealth – enemies wont even know what hit them!
-
Bombs: Lance can use these bombs to open up the path to new areas, or to damage enemies from a distance. It’s explosive fun!
-
Passive Abilities: You can find and equip passive abilities which grant you bonuses as long as they’re equipped, such as increased movement speed, surviving enemy combos, increasing the drop rate of goodies, and more! Be warned though – Equipping these passive abilities takes from your magic for as long as they’re equipped. Watch your magic meter!
-
Upgrades: Lance can find upgrades to his health, magic, and attack that permanently boost his stats.
Collectibles
During your quest, you will find several types of collectibles! Here are some of the collectibles you can find:
-
Pretty Petals: The currency of the Cat Kingdom. Use these to buy abilities and upgrades at shops.
Fish Scales: Each stage has a fixed number of Fish Scales. Use these to access new locations by train. Can you find all of them in each stage?
-
LANCE Letters: Each stage has 5 LANCE letters for you to find. However, the stages are pretty big – you’ll have to check every nook and cranny if you want to find these!
-
Cat Coin: Special currency of the Cat Kingdom. Use these to open doors and gain access to new areas.
-
Key: Each stage has a set of keys that are only useful for that stage. If you find a locked door, keep an eye out for a key!
-
Treasure Chest: Find treasure chests scattered throughout the land. It is a mystery what each one contains, but it (most likely) will aide you on your quest! If you find an ability you already have, you can sell it at the shop for Pretty Petals!
-
Fish Statue: These will permanently increase Lance’s max health, so be sure to look for them!
Locations
During your quest, you will visit many locations throughout the Cat Kingdom. Here are just some of the places you’ll visit:
-
Cat Castle Town: The central town of the Cat Kingdom. Here you will find many shops with items that will help you on your journey, as well as mini-games to pass the time with.

Difficulty – Tough: Enemies are tougher and also tougher to defeat, and drop less items and whatnot. This mode is for people who really want to test their skills.

Demo
Currently, there is not a demo available for Shield Cat. To allow people to still play the game, I’m offering a playtest, in which you can play a non-feature complete build of the game! You can’t “beat” this demo and many things are not available, but you can check out how the development is going as I work toward the Chapter 1 demo. Please check it out!

Guardian Chronicle
Chronically addictive tower defence!
An easy recommendation to fans of tower defence games.
✅ Engaging game play.
✅ Varied ‘towers’.
❌ Very limited maps per season.
❌ Balancing issues.
❌ No single player content.
As a tower defence fan I can safely say that Guardian Chronicles dug it’s claws in to me deep!
The core game play involves you choosing a roster of guardians that act as towers, each with their own skills and abilities and placing them on select tiles to thwart waves of enemies.
What makes Guardian Chronicles interesting and engaging is the merge system. To get more powerful towers you have to replace two matching towers of the same level together. The spanner in the works however, is the towers are drawn randomly from your pool of selected heroes but you see the next five draws allowing you to plan ahead. coupled with tower abilities based on positioning this helps keep games engaging from start to finish.

Pros: Its a fun tower defense game with pve/pvp content. There are many deck combinations to use. Its very fun to play to kill time. Its not very toxic either
Cons: It is pay to win you will lose to someone who is dropping money. Later in game progression is much slower when you try leveling up your cards. Example at you will need 4000 cards of a specific card just to level it up and it will cost an absurd amount of in game gold
Despite the cons its very fun to play if your playing casually. You can earn alot of gold if you do well in the pve and pvp part of the game. Events change every often giving you great chances to earn rewards for free. Not much you can do about p2w players you will lose until you’ve put int enough time to get at least 3 cards to max level and use a proper deck but its very easy to pick up. I play this game casually i just do the dailies and events and log out. So far iv enjoyed myself so if you have nothing better to do or want something to play in the backround while you do other things like watching a movie or something idk then give this game a shot it wont hurt you. I wouldnt put money into it though

Telecube Nightmare
Pretty sweet little game!
The sprite design is clean, the overall visual language is simple and consistent, the teleportation mechanic is fun and (as long as there are no frame rate hiccups) very well implemented - and in terms of gameplay it’s got a nice difficulty progression from super-easy all the way up to to moderately tricky.
I had a nice time with this. If you want something light and colorful to fill the time, it’s worth the $0.99 (or whatever I spent on it).

More reviews, honesty, hot opinions, etc. on my Curator Page, which is how I got a key to this game in the first place: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/28898588-True-Game-Truths/
There’s more production value than I would’ve expected for a $3.39 Unity-engine platformer, with the character’s animated facial expressions, effects and sounds for teleporting and taking out enemies, and the fog of war effect in World 3 was a nice surprise, especially combined with the creepy music. It’s neat enough, but there’s no shortage of creative platformers on Steam. Let’s be honest.

Fantasy Story
Fantasy Story is a tight, punchy platformer with more than 80 rooms across four distinct zones, all employing unique mechanics to make for new challenges. Enemies are varied and tough and there are plenty of secrets to uncover. The world is deep, rich and ready to explore.
A world brimming with light, kindness, and joy now lays barren.
The adventurers that roamed these lands, and kept them safe from evil, were young and strong. They fought to keep the people who inhabited it safe and secure, from the breezy, green fields to the freezing tundras. But alas, these Heroes were nowhere near prepared for the impending doom that awaited the world.
Drasorin, a warlock determined to disrupt the balance of the world, sought and slew the great Heroes. Unleashing his powerful minions to pillage, corrupt, and destroy, Drasorin succeeded in his evil goal, and now the lands are his. Those that survived live in fear; fearful of the day that Drasorin will come for them, too. While he sits high and mighty in his castle, his disgusting monsters are left to roam the world, and destroy any good that is left.
You are one of the few survivors. Seeking vengeance for your home and people, you set out on the greatest adventure yet. Pick up your sword, Hero, and godspeed! For you will face deadly foes and overcome perilous obstacles. Be wary! As you travel, you will encounter few safe havens to rest - and even fewer friends to assist, so you must be careful! Take back what belongs to the people of this world, bring the hammer of justice down on Drasorin, and be the great Hero that everyone needs!
The bards of legend are ready to compose your Fantasy Story … are you?
Xinput Controller Support. Sit back and relax!
Steam Achievements. Track your legendary story!
Explore four unique zones with tough enemies and sneaky secrets!
Overcome tons of challenges. Are you tough enough?

Encounter merchants to buy new weapons! Slay your enemies harder!
Adorable pixel graphics. Easy on the eyes!
Little Wolf
I refunded this I can post the video if the creators want to see it for feedback upon request, but the camera angle literally beats you to death it makes it incredibly inconvenient to move and if this wolf changes elevations he jumps by his own volition making it VERY difficult to be on top of some of the roofs and maneuver. The theme/aesthetic is the best part of the game by far, but even though the wolf** can move well at times the camera being a spas and the way he has to move in a full circle to go left and right just about make this unplayable. I also fell straight through the map in the second area which means you have to restart since there’s no continue so that’s really not great.

Beasts of Maravilla Island
Beast of Maravilla Island is a wonderful addition to the “fantasy animal” photography genre but with a very nice twist. IT’S NOT A “CART ON RAILS” photo safari, it’s SEMI-OPEN WORLD!!
Now that I have your attention, if chill photo safari games with adorable and well thought out animals are your jam stop reading now and go pick this one up. This game is super fun and satisfying getting all the “best” shots of all the different critters. Not to mention finding all the different critters can be a bit of a challenge as some are VERY well hidden,
– Real player with 4.5 hrs in game
Edit: So I just finished Beasts of Maravilla Island, and it was a very nice game indeed - I’m changing my review to positive, because the devs showed fantastic reactivity to the players' feedback, and that’s more than appreciable; but also because the game truly pleased me.
As said before (or after lol) it is one of peacefulness and contemplation, of nature and ourselves, as humans thus beasts, with a simple but timeless message, which felt very refreshing. Even if all the wildlife depicted in Beasts of Maravilla Island is an imaginary one, it doesn’t remove any of the game’s charm, at the contrary - as exposing existant fauna and flora might have possibly been a bit more boring to the players.
