10mg :)
:) brought back the spirit of mid-’00s freeware games that I’ve missed so much. A fun, weird concept, modest in scope, and playable from start to finish in a few non-committal moments. I was reminded of that time, and while enjoying what :) itself has to offer (which, incidentally, is a bag of delightful surprises and laughs), I also took a trip down memory lane. Rousing so many thoughts and memories, :) proves what a short game experience can do.
Those games you downloaded on a whim and played one afternoon and never again… They stay with you, don’t they? I’m sure I’ll be reminded :) some ten years down the line – and I’m looking forward to that moment.

10mg: Ten Ten-Minute Games!
This 10mg minigame consists of a series of microgames, all of which are unique takes on nostalgic classics such as Atari’s Breakout and the OG mobile game Snake! Each game contains a twist, such as a golf hole that chases you back, allowing the game to feel fresh despite the plethora of retro influences. Although the prospect of so many separate activities within such a short game may feel chaotic, each section is connected and leads seamlessly into the next making for a smooth and enjoyable experience.

COROPATA
Great adorable puzzle game from 2009 but barebones port.
It runs without issues and it’s cheap, so can’t complain.
don’t give up

Charming puzzle game with precise Newtonian physics simulation. Fiendishly difficult, which has resulted in finding some funny alternative solutions.

PetrifactionUnderRuin
feature
Bishoujo characters change to various materials (freezing, petrification, waxing, golden, tree-making, soaping, etc …)
Erosion expands with each shot and animation slows down (attack avoidance difficulty also increases!)
Human bosses can also end the battle without defeating them by action (the ending branches accordingly)
Japanese anime style model
In order to express the speed of the enemy and ally while being based on RPG, I quote the battle system of a famous indie game
Since the emphasis is on viewing abnormal conditions, the play time will be around 1 hour when checking all routes. Please note.
More details
Root, a rare user of freezing magic, is suddenly kidnapped one day and throws himself into a battle called “consolidation death game”.
However, this game was a mysterious one that could proceed without defeating humans by solving the gimmick.
What kind of ending is waiting for the selection of the character and route that the player controls?
Press the button at the right time to attack!
Avoid enemy attacks like STG!
Be careful as the movement speed will slow down when attacked!
Even if you are not good at STG, you can ease the difficulty by selecting equipment and level!
Various options for abnormal condition production
Expression of erosion during state change (mottled, even, from top to bottom)
Change the expression for each material (4 to 10 types depending on the material)
Soapy foam expression (5 types including none)
Presence or absence of freezing cold air expression
Material when attacked by an enemy whose material is not specified
Ballfrog
#### Gameplay
Use fun and experimental controls to roll ball frog around awesome environments!
Use Ball Frogs tongue as a grappling hook to grab, swing and fling Ball Frog through the map!
Check Points are used so you don’t loose progress and will save your checkpoint for the next time you play.
Since this game uses physics a lot, we have many mechanics that can bounce, swing and even pop you as you play through the game.
#### Story
Ball Frog and his froggy friends enjoyed lazing around and eating flies and playing in the swamp all day long. That was until the flies started disappearing. The fly god was not happy about the flies being eaten so he captures all the frogs apart from one. Ball Frog. It is up to you to Roll, Swing and Jump your way to the fly god and save your froggy friends!
#### Cosmetics
The in game currency “Flies” can be collected throughout the game and can be spent in the shop to buy cosmetic hats and skins!

I can already see how much fun this little desktop companion will be. As of right now, the only problems I have are that using your own files will be a hassle as you have to put each photo/video/sound/text one by one, as well as sometimes my mouse bugs out when it grabs it. I’ll write again once I have 1k hours B)
I love this studio lol

Post Cards
A gorgeous little collection of 3 games, well worth the price. :)

Micro-Games
Post Cards has three parts that can each be beaten in about two minutes. I would hesitate to even call these “mini-games” because that would imply a higher replayability factor than they have. These “micro-games” aren’t bad, but they are extremely short.
Recommended at whatever price you think is worth six minutes of play.

Ruff Night At The Gallery
Do you like dogs?
Do you like being spooped?
Do you like being licked and spooked at the same time?
THEN THIS GAME IS FOR YOU!

The atmosphere is amazing, the dogs are amazing. It’s so amazing I made a video about it filled with dog puns (check it out: https://youtu.be/_DyTvYA3wbI )

It’s so amazing I could write something completely out of scamalot by James Veitch “I love the way it started”.

Loved it! I actually recorded myself playing on the day of release, but of course the footage bugged out because I was using experimental features. It was such a short yet entertaining experience. No bugs, crashes, or lag spikes either, and on day 1, that’s pretty impressive (especially since I was recording). I think I’m more impressed with how creative the New Game + is. Won’t spoil for anyone reading, but it isn’t what you’re expecting. It was so hectic too, like, I had to actually catch my breath between segments. Good job guys!

The game technically: As the anthropologist and spiritualist Carlos Castaneda said in one of his brilliant passages, “(…) the aim is to balance the terror of being alive with the wonder of being alive”. Mixing the exploration of the sensorial and the experimental, Schastye, aims at the balance between the terror of spiritual/existencial awareness with the wonder of spiritual/existencial awareness, using a pixelated and dithering aesthetic, something like a revival or “lost game” from the PSX era or early 2000s PC games. In Schastye you wake up in a small bedroom, with few elements beyond of a radio, a burning incense and an old computer with Word 97 opened. The only substantial progress action you can take is to sit in front of the computer and randomly press keys on keyboard to see the story being written automatically… Yes, all you can do is read an interactive story on a computer screen, a metalinguistic gameplay where the sounds around you alternate between children playing in the street, raindrops and noise from neighbors. During the reading we come across with quotes from Chapayev and Void by Victor Pelevin, Necronomicon by H. P. Lovecraft and the ambience of a journey through the studies of Marcel Griaule. Writing and narrative are close to the Lovecraftian epistle style with Carlos Castaneda’s oneirism, and his pioneering spiritualism full of hallucinogenic teas/drugs.
