Speaking Simulator
I, like many humans, enjoy the process of moving facial muscles in order to make audible sounds of communication. I recommend this educational experience to any fellow biological human who wishes to inefficiently spend time having what is often called fun.
Also contains inspirational messages about the future which can help briefly dampen the crushing effects of the fragile human condition.

It is difficult to convey how much of a struggle moving my mandible muscles in tandem with emoting my human eyebrows and lips while not making too much or too little eye contact in the same time period; however it provides me great solace that I can shake my human booty in a more sexually attractive and pleasing manner than Karen from HR and her robotic gyrations. After participating in this speech exercise program, I am well on my way to dominating the feeble minds of the weak humans inhabiting my town, then soon the world.

Table Manners: Physics-Based Dating Game
What happens when a surgeon from Surgeon Simulator (SS) decides to go for a date? Well, you get this.
Like SS, you control your own hand to use, grab and release the objects and complete the objectives, while you are dealing with unpredictable game’s physics. Some differences where the time is limited to complete the objectives and you are on a date; impress him/her/them with your ‘handy’ skills by pouring the wine, cooking the marshmallows, mixing the drinks, grabbing the sushi, etc. Impress them (good) enough and you get the rewards; items for your hand and ultimate goal at the end.

Drunken Fist 🍺👊 Totally Accurate Beat ‘em up
I mainly recommend this game because it’s very cheap and it’s a very unique fun concept with the physics based fighting. More games should use proper physics. There is a sufficient amount of different moves to make it rather interesting. (although I’d add a few more)
However I think it’s far from desirable. It feels unpolished / unfinished with many features, such as key rebinding and level select are missing on release.
I also don’t like the “drunken” part. Sure, it’s advertised in the title, but in practice it means that the game is hard to control and clunky. While some could consider the result funny, I can only think of it as frustrating, as things often don’t work as I expect.

Tl;dr: Drunken Fist is a silly game that needs a lot of work. It feels like an Early Access title, but it’s being sold as a finished product.
The Good
- Silly and good for a laugh* Charming art style
The Bad
- Priced a bit higher than it should be for the quality/amount of content ($2 - $3 seems more reasonable)* Controls aren’t always responsive* Lacks something as basic as the ability to exit the game from the main menu* Player character can get stuck inside the scenery

Just, Bearly
I really wish steam had a “meh” option.
The game and concept are AWESOME and the game is really great.
But I can not give this a good rating for a few reasons:
-
It took me about 30 minutes of play time to get it to be more then just a white screen and be playable
-
It crashes once every chapter near the end, this means you that to finish the game I have had to play each chapter just about twice
-
I have finished the game 5 times and have yet to get the achievement for finishing it twice.

Okay, its harsh to vote it down, i know. But hear me out.
1st) i think a game with more than overwhemlingly positive reviews can take it. so lets be honest.
2nd) Game is fun and a good idea, but it does have issues.
Now that these Main Points are out of the way, let me explain.
First off, the game is free, i’d highly recommend you trying it out if you are interessted (or even if you are not, actually) but i also want to warn people about some stuff. Its short - and i mean super super short. Like 20 mins. This isnt bad, lots of free games are pretty short.

Godly Corp
What a great hidden gem!
A game where you play as a tentacle monster working in an office already promisses originality.
I was reluctant at first, not beeing an avid indie games player, but after playing it for a bit, it really grew on me.
The controls take a while to master, which is a good thing: the feeling of achievement after beating harder levels on hard difficulty is truly great!
The game isn’t very long, about 2 - 4 hours on average to play through all levels. It isn’t a bad thing though, because you can always keep trying to beat the previous high score or other players’ scores on theglobal leaderboard.

The Short of it: Not exactly my cup of tea in the long run, but I get why it’s popular. It can be funny, frustrating, and challenging. I think the humour is its best quality. It truly tests your multi-tasking limits.
Reminds me of: If you liked any of those surgeon simulator type games, you’ll probably like Godly Corp.

Surgeon Simulator
Oh Surgeon Simulator. It is one of those games that you will either love or hate with a passion.
This game is famous for many reasons but the main one is its controls. It makes the game incredibly challenging and it is why a lot of people are finding this game frustrating and not enjoyable.
The physics on everything is overly exaggerated. Combining this with the hilariously awkward arm controls means every movement you make is a recipe for disaster and some great laughs.
Since the original version, more surgeries were added, offering you a much more polished experience. They’ve also tightened the controls enough where the surgeries are actually beatable. Many secrets and Easter eggs were also included, my favorites being the Alien and Donald Trump surgeries that I found hilarious and fun. I’ve played for multiples hours already and the laughs haven’t stopped.

Long spoken of as myth, fairy-tale or merely the raving delusions of a mad man, an ancient and mysterious evil has awoken and proven itself a very real and dangerous threat to all in the once pleasant land of Infirmary. But there is yet hope as a band of unlikely heroes unite to vanquish this foe and send it back to the vile domain from whence it came. Play the roles of plucky Pinkie, the young but eager son of a blacksmith, Ring, the exiled princess trying to win back her rightful place as heir to the throne, the short-tempered Middle with a past shrouded in secrecy and an apparent score to settle, Thumb, the stoic and noble paladin sworn to defend the realm, and their brave leader Index, who together form the brotherhood of The Hand of Nigel, as they set forth on adventure in a world filled with peril at every turn.

Goop Loop
During the frustrating first play-through of this game I was convinced that it was not a game where you would eventually be able to consistently get past obstacles but I immediately proved myself wrong in the second run. Don’t get me wrong it is still hard but it is definitely a lot more manageable. I definitely recommend it if you like foddian games and if you aren’t afraid of a challenge.

Physics platformers are notorious for being insanely hard.
This one’s no exception. But it does have some quirky/clever vocal (English only) tutorial, that only really speaks up if and when you’re having trouble. I was actually quite amused by how the game knew when to say “You should slow down”, versus pretty much pre-emptively telling me I screwed up when I passed a point of no return.
It’s like having the developer commentary from Half-Life (But more quirky/punny), the goopiness of Gish (With more freedom of movement), and the jankiness of, well, basically every physics platformer out there. My hand started hurting after about an hour, so I had to take a break, but I’ll definitely be trying to finish it after I take a break.

Stilt Fella
After 18 hours of what can only be described as psychological torture aimed at people with masochistic tendencies and fingers swollen to the size of bowling balls - I have finally beaten the game. And I feel the most accomplished than after beating any other game. And… and… I hate this game. I despise it. And I love it. It is so good it will literally make you hate it and love it at the same time. At one point it even confused me sexually. I cannot recommend this game enough. I’m serious. I cannot recommend it. DON’T BUY IT. Unless you like really challenging games that will force you to fail thousands of times in the most infuriating ways possible. If this review confuses you, then you understand how this game made me feel. But seriously, BUY THIS GAME. It’s amazing.

I’m one of the beta testers and responsible for the menu and end credits music so I’ve walked along this game for a while…
I have seen people mention games like Getting Over It, but I do see that view a bit lacking. While Getting Over It starts fairly easy, forcing you to get around a tree, this is an instant slap in the face, much like QWOP. Although, because the stilts are much easier to control than the runner’s legs in QWOP, you will be picking up the correct rhythm quite quickly and feel like a god just finishing the first levels.

Ampu-Tea
What the game is
Apmu-Tea is both a game about tea and a play on words. In the game, you play as an Amputee, who has to make tea. Its a basic concept, but the game turns this concept into a challange. AS the steam page says, the game is literally surgion simulator like, but to make tea.
Pros
+Game has decent graphics.
Not state of the art, but not shitty either
+Gameplay is engaging.
Until you figure everything out and beat the game.
+Difficult, but not too much.
It is difficult at first to do anything. Want to grab a cup, all the others get pushed off the table and onto the floor. Although over time it does go away as you learn the controls.

Yeah, the camera sucks, you cannot move it and sometimes your cup get lost behind the water machine.
-
Your hand sometimes get bugged and you cannot do anything but wait
-
Let’s not talk about graphics this time, okay?
-
I DON’T KNOW HOW I BROKE MY HAND SO MANY TIMES THAT EASILY
Pros
-
Hard af
-
It’s kind of funny
! If you don’t rage or you aren’t the one raging
-
this game can help you to improve your patience, I’m not joking (I know someone who needs this badly, yeah it’s you Jake ¬.¬)
