Galactic Mining Corp
Galactic Mining Corp is decent. It’s not quite good enough for me to say its a great game, but its not bad enough for me to say its awful either. It occupies that middle niche of being compelling enough to enjoy but also shows off a lot of points where it could have used some more refinement.
=The Good=
-
The artwork is great. You can tell effort was put into the art direction off the game.
-
If you enjoy completionist style games, this is going to have a lot for you. Hundreds of items to unlock and rank up. Lots of achievements.

Game is not terrible, though its essentually a clicker with very little actual game play. You’re just increasing numbers so you can gain even higher numbers. The mining sections while there’s interaction with power ups and such, are more a measure if your progress is “tall enough to ride” you can finish some maps earlier than intended with some intelligent play, but that’s extent to the depth of gameplay.
The game honestly goes on a little too long. They could have cut the entire 3rd galaxy and the game been just fine to me, the game starts feeling a little long in the tooth around the start of the 3rd galaxy. at least 35 of my nearly 60 hours was in the 3rd galaxy. Also whoever on the dev team decided what you go through on the planet Apollo needed to be a thing. There’s a special place in hell for you, you know what you did.

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,

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.

Island of the Lost
Best casual game I’ve seen this year. It’s more involved than the demo may make it appear, with booby traps, hard to find objects, etc. There are vast areas to explore and you really get the sense of being “lost” at times.
A hub is available which offers access to any level. Game controllers are supported but I wish you could redefine the keyboard/mouse controls. I also wish you could run a bit faster since the levels are so large.
The visual aesthetics, level design, and music are fantastic. A no-brainer for the low cost.

A fun and relaxing item collecting game with beautifully crafted levels. The atmosphere is great, I love the art style, the music is nice and relaxing, the levels are fun to explore (You can even get outside the map somewhere in level 4 and explore where you’re not supposed to. I won’t tell you where though, can’t have the dev putting an invisible wall there. He’ll have to figure it out himself too if we wants to block it off) and figuring out the secrets in each level is fun as well.
All in all, a very nice game to just lean back in your chair and relax with.

Mrs. Santa’s Gift Hunt

Re: Award
Basically there is only one objective in this game you must complete using the basic power provided. The hallway corridor is small and short so if you reach the end it just resets you back to the beginning. This is where you will realize that the power is required to progress. By right-clicking you activate her magic powers and the goal is to find all the missing furniture and making it spawn back in its original place. After you place all 23 pieces of furniture down you exit through the corridor and the game is complete. The achievement will be unlocked and that is the end of the game. Probably spent less than five minutes to finish the game. Overall rating 5/10 based on length and difficulty. Cannot complain since it is a free game.

The Great Hide n Seek Expawdition
The Great Hide n Seek Expawdition is chill hide and seek game with roguelite elements and local coop for little and big kids. Find all the animal babies that went hiding away in the forest. Play as a raccoon dad or a rabbit mum, explore the environments, find hidden treasures and bring everybody home.
CHILL HIDE N SEEK
The game is a feel-good “find’em-all” game with very simple controls and pleasing atmosphere. It offers short level sessions that you can complete quite fast but you can also take the time to enjoy the views and find all hidden secrets.
PROCEDURAL GENERATION
All maps are procedurally generated to offer a new experience on each level. The lighting and atmospherics change too, ranging from clean sun rise to foggy nights or rainy afternoons.
UNLOCK NEW BIOMES AND CUTE ANIMALS
During your expawdition, you’ll find new animals and new environments to explore. Take the time to find them all: raccoons, foxes, badgers, and more to come! And maybe you’ll stumble across some legendary ones too, who knows?
FAMILY FRIENDLY COOP
You can easily play with your kids, nephews, cousins or younger friends, up to 4 players in local or remote thanks to Steam “Remote Play Together” option. The game offers classical but also more seldom Voronoi splitscreen modes. This will make you progress faster!
ABOUT THE DEVELOPER
Hi there! I’m Mathias and I’ve been creating video games since I was a child. I love coding, playing music and drawing. So what’s better than creating a video game to do all of this at the same time? I do everything alone because I love every part of it and I’m a curious guy who likes to know how it works! I hope you’ll like it :)

Hidden Town
Pretty identical to the plant one, except for the mushrooms, those two brown mushrooms are identical, only the shadow on it changes, you won’t make me think otherwise.
PS : Replay value is zero, the items are the same an they don’t move.

Extremely bad object finding game at an absurdly high nominal price. Obviously if anything pick up a Steam key for a few microdollars rather than buying the outrageously-priced offering here.
Choose the “100 hidden” series instead – accept no compromise.

SEARCH ALL - ANIMALS
This is a very cute game, I enjoyed it. Some item are very small, but they have that great magnifier to enlarge, and You can get it huge so that You wont miss anything.
The game has a save, so if You can’t finish it in one setting, it will save Your progress till You come back to continue it.
The Developers are great, responding fast if there is any problems, hope They bring some more games like this on the market, and I’ll buy them.
– Real player with 2.2 hrs in game
Challenging and chill at the same time. I like the music a lot, even though it is a short loop playing over and over–it’s perfect background. You WILL use the magnifier in order to find everything, but it isn’t too difficult to achieve 100%. It took me a half hour to find everything, which is my only complaint: I wish there were more scenes to play! I sure enjoyed what was here though, and will definitely look for more from this developer!
