Practical Shooting Simulator
If you have any interest in stage design or competition shooting, this “game” (more like tool) has the potential to be your best friend. I’m excited to see how 269th builds on it in the future and I’m hoping to see:
1: More targets (such as the dreaded texas star or spinner)
2: A “shoot until hit scored” command, which would lead into…
3: More “useful” gear and ammunition management
4: And I think this goes without saying … many more guns and modding!
I never thought I needed something like this, but it has helped me conceptualize real-world stage design and I have already replicated a few of my own into the game to see how fast Megadroid Laura Croft can complete them.

Neonverse Defenders
An interesting and very competent Tower Defense title. Picked up on sale, otherwise it might have passed me by - there were no reviews. Had I seen the SpecOps review I probably (unfortunately) would have given it a miss. That said, in retrospect I would have been happy to pay full price.
There is a good Tutorial to introduce you to the basics and I would suggest playing each of these 6 levels a couple of times to let the information sink in. The game has a mine of information (you just have to dig around a bit) so don’t let it pass you by.

gud game
– Real player with 25.1 hrs in game
Its a unique tower defense game with cool graphics. You have to defend your food from ozz coming form caves, even if you lose some food you can get it back to 100 by farming which does takes a bit time. You can even farm woods to make fence to block ozz path.
In each lv there’s different types of ozz which can even atk your troops too. But thats not the only new enemy, after few level you have to defend against other enemy too sailing from other island.

Pro Soccer Online
Very fun game to play, is nice to get involved with a footballing community from people either in Europe, NA/SA and Korea, is totally worth it to join the discord for either one to play with other people in a more organised way and more competitively. Is under development but is still totally worth playing.

This is a very fun game that is great to play with friends. It is easy to get into for casual fun but has a high skill ceiling with can lead to some competitive games. The developer is great about listening to community feedback and updates the game regularly. There is an active Discord for pick up games in North America with 20-30 people playing at a time most nights.

Referee Simulator
https://store.steampowered.com/app/811550/MythBusters_The_Game__Crazy_Experiments_Simulator/
Most people think that the work of a soccer referee on the field is an easy task. In our new production, you can see how it really is.
Because it is up to the referee how the whole spectacle will look like.
It is the referee who decides how much players can push themselves giving them warnings or cards, or even turning a blind eye to minor infractions. On this depends the charisma of the referee and the respect with which the players treat him.
And the more mistakes they make, the more time they spend when watching VAR replays or consulting the other referees, the less respect the players have for him and the more they allow themselves.
A good referee must also strategically spread his strength over the whole game to avoid a situation where the action is happening beyond his reach. You can take a moment to relax with constant parts of the game or browsing the VAR, but this will not help to regenerate strength.
Obvious errors in the assessment of the situation, apart from the fact that after each match, the referee’s work is assessed by the referee commission, cause brawls on the pitch and very stressful disapproval of the audience. And in stress, it is easier to make further mistakes.
Start with league matches to referee increasingly serious matches, and finally be the main referee at the World Cup!

Azlan: Rise of the Burlpups
It’s a simple tower defense game, but a good looking one.
Would rate neutral if Steam allowed that, but they are still in computing middle-age so it’s either yay or nay… let’s call it a yay for a rather casual, cute game.
PS: got the game via Curator Connect.

Experienced on the Oculus Quest 2
You can view my review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/JpKk9sO02c4
I’ll agree with Masamune27858 that this isn’t a “good” TD game. The core gameplay is just too simple. However, I don’t think it’s a bad game, it’s just not what someone who is experienced in TD games would be looking for. I do think this game would be nice for someone new to Tower Defense games.
It’s a very beautiful game. In fact, it it’s probably the best looking TD game in VR. The art-style looks really good and they would be pleasant just as VR dioramas to enjoy. The gameplay is basically just playing down one of three towers, plus upgrading or selling them. You also have a hero that you can place to help put down the enemy siege.

Perspective
Totally recommend this game. great fun, free to play and an innovative game concept.
I really wish there were more levels tho, completed it in 30 mins
– Real player with 0.5 hrs in game
I’d recommend this game, it’s a cute little puzzle game.
Your goal is to collect coins to advance to the next stage.
You can play solo, locally or online.
You have access to two different characters that can interact in a different way on the same level, going through own colored path, using switches, …
There is more things to consider as you progress through levels.
The controls and interface are clear and effective.
It can be short depending on your pace but you can always try to be quicker as there is a leaderboard.

Star Maidens Chronicle: Definitive Edition
Extremely shallow RTS. Not worth the price at all.
All the factions are identical, just different skin / theme.
Only 2 units, builder and soldier.
Only 4 buildings. HQ, Barracks, Resource and Tower.
Because of this, gameplay is always just “make more dudes than the other guy faster”. No unit synergies or strategies.
