GLADIABOTS - AI Combat Arena
This is a superb, unique game that deserves to be even more popular than it already is.
The concept of the game is that the player designs their own AI via customizable ‘nodes’ (colour-coded tiles that the player can arrange into a logic tree to determine their robots' behaviour) which then dictate how their team of 4-8 robots (from four different classes) perform in battle against ‘enemy’ AIs.
The logical array which the player creates (featured in several of the screenshots in the store page) can be anywhere from just a handful of tiles at first, to literally hundreds (arranged into named sub-AIs if the player wants) that function like a sort of flow diagram for each robot, governing their priorities and thus responses based on a seemingly endless combination of determining factors e.g. what friendly or enemy bots are doing at that particular moment, how far away they are, or hundreds of other parameters native to the ‘check-box’ like options that allow the player to refine what each tile actually ‘says’.

In Gladiabots you programm a platoon of robots that will then compete autonomously in a game arena against other platoons. You have to plan and consider carefully when creating your robots' AIs before actually hitting the arena as you can no longer interfere once the match has started: The robots are then on their own, equipped with nothing but your programmed instructions.
There are four different bot classes resembling a rock scissors paper scheme with an added tank and several different game modes (three for online ranked matches vs humans).

Aloof
Aloof has a lovely unique atmosphere and simple to pick up gameplay but with insane depth. And I think I only started scratching the surface. It also has many multiplayer modes! Start for the vibe and stay for the combo’s.

Nurose
Nurose is online dueling game where you fight others with custom spells. It has a custom spell building system that allows players create unique attacks. The game has a high focus on gameplay customizability and has a high skill ceiling.
Custom Spells
Central to Nurose is the unique spell building system. Spells are built by visually programming glyphs in a staff. There are 30+ glyphs ranging from simple movement glyphs to complex conditional glyphs. You don’t need to level up to earn new glyphs or staffs. Each glyph is available from the start so everyone is on a even playing field.
The possibilities of this are endless. Some spells that you could make include:
-
Mines that explodes when the enemy is near.
-
A shield made up of projectiles in a semi circle.
-
Anti-missile attack that will look for enemy projectiles and destroy them.
-
Spell that makes decoy clones and moves them in specific directions.
What sets the great players apart are their skill in spell building and mastering their builds. When you have made a build, enter online matchmaking and fight others with your spells.
Online matchmaking
In online matchmaking you will fight others in a 1v1 best of 5 game. Each player has several staffs available. The game is made in a custom engine with rollback netcode for optimal online experience.

3D Math - Ultra
Better than expected and more enjoyable after longer play. I’ll write what I personally liked about it and compare it to other games. Since there seems to be no other game like this on Steam, I’ll compare it to something like Lumosity and similar games.
The game would have been worth a higher price. It makes the math, logic, and other training games more interesting than normal. Training arithmetic probably doesn’t sound like a game, but it’s kind of nice because you start to feel it’s a challenge and have a motivation to out do yourself. Plus, unlike other games, the skill is transferable outside of the game.

This is something I appreciate very much. There aren’t many enjoyable math programs created by people that want to improve a learner’s comprehension of mathematics. I really enjoy the brain training section as it has some exercises I like, such as: N-back(memory), grid(pattern recognition), and matches. Thank you for creating this program!

TetraLogical
This is a fantastically well made game that I’m sure many people will enjoy playing. A simple premise but also becomes more and more complex as you move to the higher level settings. I would definitely recommend this game and it is a great way to pass a few hours playing and quickly becomes one of those games that you can’t stop playing. Great work!!

TetraLogical is a turn-based strategy game in Early Access in which the goal is to obtain the most optimal score with your random given pieces across a board filled with numbers 1-12 in each block. The game can be played single-player or local MP currently, with plans to implement online MP eventually.
What is there right now is a set of maps/grids with a level editor as well. There are single-player modes that are purely the player working on the highest score or best moves, with or without a time limit. The standard mode removes blocks after they have been used. There is a Blitz mode there now that gives you a map that refill the blocks that you have used and the goal is to score as high as possible before the timer runs out. (Best possible move will yield extra time.) The developer is working on two more game modes at the moment. From what I can gather, one will be trying to score as high as possible with limited number of moves, and the other will be more of a puzzle type.

Blind Postman
A well made and challenging puzzle game, looks great.
– Real player with 0.5 hrs in game
Written for 1561’s Thoughts - Honest reviews, for busy people.
Blind Postman :: sliding tiles, collectable objects, straight line movement :: slide your way to the end of the level while collecting mail. It’s tricky when movable posts get involved as well. 6/10

CyberNEON
5 Pretty environments that don’t distract you while you play.
The rules are simples : align 3 or more tiles of the same icon to cover between 60% and 70% (depending on difficulty) of the tiles with your color. While doing this, an ability charges up. It allows you to drop a bomb on any tile. It colors this tile and the adjacent ones with your color while destroying the icons, making the tiles above fall.
Playing on the same board as another player (AI or real player) is a nice twist leading to unforeseen movements of the tiles. The AI has 3 difficulty settings. Sometimes it doesn’t do anything for 10 seconds then does several combos in rapid successions.

too little content for what it’s worth.
-game has 5 stages which are all the same. only background differs. no gameplay variety there.
-only 1 ability (bomb) that detonates 5 tiles in a plus shape. could use more tbh.
-no online pvp (not that there would be players anyway) so doesnt really matter i guess.
-AI are….weird. all ai difficulties are like the same thing; equally dumb.
i got bored after 5 mins.
other match 3 games like wish, mirror and whatever else are better cause they give an incentive for you to keep playing, iykwim.

Dead Simple 21
I didn’t go in expecting much but this is a real gem. Variation on 21 with special cards, play modes, timer, interactive elements. Awesome solitaire or for challenging your mates. Highly addictive.
If you love your card games or need a fun way to kill idle time (on planes, trains, in bed, etc.), check out Dead Simple 21. It’s addictive. I’m challenging anyone that walks past to have a go at beating my high score. And I learned a new card game!

Dead Simple 21 is a blackjack inspired game where you draw cards from a deck and place them into one of four columns trying to hit 21. This game is a fun casual game to play. It features a fantastic art style and theme. This was fun to play, and I recommend giving it a try.

I Know Everything
The questions are okay, although very difficult. The achievements are ludicrous. ‘Get to the top 10 for all players’, or multiplayer victories with a dead playerbase. Nope.

So I picked up this game because I was bored of the games my friend and I usually play every day. It’s not the most polished game, as there are many spelling/grammar errors, but we had fun for 30 or so minutes. My biggest complaint is the difficulty of questions and the limited category choice. Maybe the developer(s) plan(s) to add more categories in the future, that would be nice. If $3 isn’t much to you, I guess it’s worth it for maybe an hour or two maximum of entertainment with a friend.
