Press Any Button
“Columns…a reference to a very old match 3 puzzle game that this game emulates in no way, shape, or form…”
This is much less a game, than it is, a way to unwind and chill, maybe needle out some emotions.
Well, I say that, but, it is only mostly so, because A-Eye, the main interactive persona, the one ‘controlling everything’, does make it harder at some point, and the chill factor drops until one can pass it, and get the apology waffle.
This is mostly a medium of popular references. Olympics, sports, video games, hobbies, academics&trivia, and even a nod or two towards the likes of authors that wrote about humanity’s downward spiral, though no names are directly mentioned, I definitely got some vibes of George Orwell, to name one.

This is a very simple, 2d game, that in terms of gameplay isn’t extremely exciting but it’s 100% worth just for the story itself. I randomly found this game yesterday and decided to install it, not really expecting much from it. But, the more you “press any button”, the more you get immersed in this story and relate to this cute little character called A-Eye, who, if you are anything like me, you will just want to hug and tell everything is going to be ok, by the time the game is over.
Don’t want to spoil the game too much, but if you have an hour to spare (probably less than that), you should give this game a go. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions.

The Ghost of Joe Papp: 101 Ways To Kill Writer’s Block
You’ve returned to your hometown after trying to strike it big as a writer out in the mean old world. You’ll find that your old theater festival, the John Q. Public Festival, has fallen upon hard times (but honestly, when has it not?). It’s not easy being Lake Tahoe’s second-best Shakespeare festival. It falls to you to write a new future for the festival, as well as either mend or break your relations with the people that you left behind.
Or at least that’s the story you’re trying to tell. You ARE a writer, but the “hometown” is a play you wrote long ago and the “mean old world”…. well, no, that’s the mean old world. That’s not a stand-in for anything.
As Joe Papp’s author, you find yourself with the ability to change the story that you are in, making choices between multiple characters that ultimately dictate how the story progresses. Will you save the theater festival, or will you cause the zombie apocalypse?
-
Write new paths to go down with (almost) every new scene
-
Your choices have effects on how every character views you
-
Make decisions that will affect your play’s rating with the critics

SHAKESPEARE? More like THIRSTspeare, amirite?
You know the drill. It’s a dating sim. But wait: not just any dating sim! One (or more) of your crushes like dating sims, and you, a humble programmer, have decided that is what you will make IN ORDER TO WIN THEIR HEART.
-
Create a cast
-
Write your dating sim over five acts
-
Use various skills such as actually talking to your crush to figure out what they like, and then put that in the game!
-
Navigate the new world as an independent developer!
Good luck! You’ll need it! Unless you’ve already played this game and have memorized what to do!

My Mud Game
＊＊My English is not very good, those are using Google Translate to translate chinese word. If there are any questions, please tell me, thanks a lot~:) ＊＊
***** If you have any suggestions or wish to add features to facilitate your development of Mud, please go to discussion forum I*****
***** Mud production instruction, please go to the official website of Red Cat Studio to check *****
Hello~
I am Ghoster, the administrator of the Unknown World Mud. My Mud Game is an independent game made by me.
The so-called Mud refers to Multi-User Dungeon (multiplayer network dungeon game).
It is mainly an online game presented in the form of text narration. The game mainly relies on the keyboard to input commands in order to interact with the world in the game, which can be said to be the predecessor of modern MMORPG.
Don’t tell everyone that …
My Mud Game’s current game content is very poor, because My Mud Game is not so much a game as it is used as a “Mud game making system” function display.
The content of My Mud Game alone shows that I don’t need to spend a lot of time to make it, but it took me more than a year to develop it! !
The main reason is that what I want to do is a …
“Everyone who can’t write programs can create their own Mud game in a simple way! !』
so…
The real goal of My Mud Game development is to allow users to modify according to their own preferences to create their own Mud games.
(I will not admit that I actually developed My Mud Game, just because I want to play Mud games made by others … XD)
In addition, in order not to lose the traditional Mud feeling, but also hope that people who play Mud for the first time will not be discouraged by the complicated command play mode, so I try my best to use the keyboard to enter the game mode, Change to just use the mouse to click,
For those who are easily lost and too lazy to draw maps, a small map function is added.
In order to make the picture more attractive and attractive, some objects have also added graphics.
My Mud Game now has only one of Mud’s most basic functions, including exploration, combat, equipment, props use and skill system, as well as simple event functions.
For more advanced development, I hope to develop after interacting with players, so … please try to present your needs! !
Within the scope allowed by the system architecture, I will try to add more functions.
My Mud Game itself is a stand-alone version of Mud game, which does not have a connection function.
Therefore, the content sharing function of personally made games becomes very important. After I understand how to use the Steam workshop,
It will be open for everyone to upload the Mud game they made.
Regarding the teaching part, I found that the description of the file method is not good, so I will find time to make as many My Mud Game game production teaching videos as possible in the future.
Anyway, please give me some advice ~
Fog Factory - Game Maker
I expected much more. This Game-Maker sadly suffers from a lack of ambition and creative thought. The UI design is lacking, the audio rarely works and the game is incredibly imbalanced. Hopefully in the future this can be improved, although that may take a lot of work.

One Dreamer: Prologue
Well, the fact that I have more than ten hours of gameplay might scare some people. But relax, it’s completely optional, but you’ll have a long journey if you want to have all the acheviements. The game itself gives you the option to “facilitate”
• The story is simple. But extremely good. So if you don’t want to have all the achievements, the story will entertain you anyway (you won’t regret playing)
• The settings are perfect, and basically, the graphics will make you “happy”. It’s something that brings harmony to the eyes, even being something simple

Depending on what you’re looking for in this prologue, it could be very short, and it could also be frustratingly long.
My first run playing through this game took me 25 minutes. I focused on the story and primarily made the necessary coding changes to proceed through the game. I also unlocked 3 of the achievements then.
I spent a little over 3 hours stuck in the secret area until I finally decided to relent and check the Discord server to find out that I had to close the game to get out of there. I spent around 7 minutes beating the UwU/OwO game fairly and between 5 to 8 minutes for the P/\DDLE game. I spent the rest of the time unlocking the other achievements and looking for the 1D codes.

THE CORRIDOR
Incredibly simple concept for a game that manages to not only create different puzzles to solve but also leading you on a fun and quirky adventure to push every last button out of spite for the narrator. If you’ve ever played The Stanley Parable, this is a game that’ll bring back fond memories and create new ones that you’ll love to go back to! From going rogue and disobeying the narrator, to meeting a cardboard man with a cardboard plan, there’s bound to be something that brings a smile to your face and gets you laughing and having a good time! Highly recommended, honestly one of the funnest games I’ve played in awhile and it really deserves a chance!

P.S (TOO IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO NOT HAVE REGRETS BUT CONTAINS A LITTLE SPOILER)
