I’ve changed my review and recommendation. Updated and original reviews below.
[Updated review]
I switched from Not Recommended to Recommended after experimenting with different audio files in Free Play mode. With lossless audio sources and synthesized tracks, it is very possible to determine key strokes based on the beats of the music. This doesn’t work as well with audio files that are too compressed, or that were taken from a lossless source that hasn’t been remastered (e.g. a non-remastered CD of music from the 1980s). I still urge the dev(s) to add the highlighting option that I mentioned in the original review. Also, the Arena Mode still needs remappable keys and a better explanation of its mechanics. However, for US$9.99, this is worth a buy.

Deca
Deca is an interesting new survival-horror game, that seems to be greatly inspired by games the likes of Outlast and Silent Hill. Deca’s story revolves around a poor soul who got trapped in an old haunted mental asylum.
While trying to escape, you are confronted by all sorts of horror and challenges. In the heat of all this, you will also have to puzzle together the mystery of this haunted mental asylum and its inhabitants.

This one really surprised me! It's a solid horror game with a lot going for it.
Imagine Outlast on a limited budget and you might know what you're in for.
You'll be avoiding a selection of dangerous enemies whilst navigating various environments, solving puzzles and collecting items. Some of the enemies and sections are genuinely frightening, even for an experienced horror fan. It'll last you around 5 hours as well, so great value for the money.

![AGAINST](https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/1584840/header.jpg "")
## AGAINST
'AGAINST' is a rhythmic journey through crime-ridden streets and their phantasmagoric seamy side.
Dodge obstacles, run up walls - all the while picking off your enemies as the pounding music builds. Use your mind and muscle memory to banish evil and find answers.
Fierce songs combined with rhythmic combat with a gritty comics aesthetic make for a truly unique experience.
#### Detective Got a Gun
Slice the henchmen with your sword and mow them down with your gun - but do it rhythmically for points and pleasure. Throwing blades, brass knuckles and a whip will complement your arsenal.
![](https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/1584840/extras/Arsenal.gif?t=1638808232)
#### Dark Comic-Style Graphics
We’ve paid loving attention to the dark and gritty comic book style. Set in 1930s America, the story of Dr. Vice’s terrifying ambitions is revealed through comic book cutscenes full of dimmed colors and frightening shadows.
#### Deadly Enemies and Dreadful Bosses
Dispatch villains to the beat as you make progress in the investigation. At the end of each chapter, take on the boss in sync with a musical climax.
#### Diverse Levels, Intriguing Narrative
Finish a complete storyline about the confrontation of Detective and Dr. Vice in 7 levels, all available in 3 difficulties. The chapters are set in different locations, each with its own unique touch.

## TERRORHYTHM (TRRT) - Rhythm driven action beat 'em up!
It pains me to write a negative review for this game, but in its current state, TERRORHYTHM is just not that enjoyable
Don't get me wrong, being a fan of rhythm games, I like this game and see great potential for it, but there are a couple major issues that prevent me from truly enjoying the game
#### Messy calibration system
Other reviewers have covered how this feature breaks when you use controllers, but since I've never used a controller for this game, I'll let you read those reviews for more accurate information. However, there is still something else that is rather done poorly.

"Easy to Learn, Hard to Master" game.
First of all, I love the art style!
There was a lot of cool design in the different backgrounds and animation. Also the weapons - (that you’ll get from enemies) - katanas, throwing discs and a giant reaper scythe that looks cool as hell as you slice down enemies).
The music is also brilliant!
Every single track here is big and thumping and geared towards making you want to move. WIthin seconds of starting up the first level, I found myself bopping along in my seat, and that set the tone for every other level. BTW, you also can add in your own songs.

## One Finger Death Punch 2
### Interested in some "Carpal tunnel Syndrome"?
but more on that later.
_Goodness gracious, what a fantastic little game this is!_
### Initial impressions and sentiments:
At first, the prequel had me so engulfed, the improved iteration seemed imminent but yet my impatience had the better of me and in order to expedite the process, I was prompted to send an email of appreciation along with a wish - The response affirmed what had been foreseen.
To my pleasure, it had a significant face lift, improving upon every conceivable aspect, qualifying it as a worthy successor that deserves investment, especially if the first had been delightfully savored.

it's a lot of fun, just like the first, but I'm gonna have to give it a thumbs down because it's as much of a downgrade as an upgrade, unfortunately. many things have been fixed since release, some of it was baffling, the way the map 'worked', for example, but it's still not a straight-up improvement over the first game. the map looks better, but it's inconsistent, some exits lead to the same place, some don't, you can't use numpad enter to start levels or bypass popups, just the regular one, sometimes the exit button wants to exit the game, sometimes it's used to back out of a menu, and instead of simple left/right clicking to add/remove skills, like in the first game, you have to click on the add/remove buttons at the top for no reason other than the fact that in 5 years since the first game they haven't learned a single thing about ui design.

## One Finger Death Punch
I would not have discovered this game if I hadn't watched jacksepticeye play it on Youtube, and as soon as I saw gameplay of it, and saw that it was only $5, I knew I had to get it, and 90 hours of playtime later, I can safely say that it's perhaps the best five dollars I've ever spent.
One of my favorite types of games are games that are simple to learn, difficult to master, and rank you on how well you did. One Finger Death Punch, Flappy Bird, Spin Copters, Electronic Super Joy, all of them very simple (and cheap) games that I've put more hours in than I've put into any other type of game. But like every game, even one as good as I think One Finger Death Punch is, there were some hiccups.

![Sekiro™: Shadows Die Twice - GOTY Edition](https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/814380/header.jpg "")
## Sekiro™: Shadows Die Twice - GOTY Edition
My proudest gaming achievement.
Sekiro is a rock hard, unforgiving, thrilling, beautiful, roller coaster of a ride. Any Souls game experience you have will actually work against you in Sekiro for the most part. It takes the From Software formula in a completely new direction that was initially frustrating for me but ended up be incredibly fulfilling.
My initial playthrough was going along great until I ran into Shinobi Hunter Enshin of Misen. That guy was the biggest brick wall of any From Software game for me. I actually gave up for awhile but eventually it clicked. I Got Gud as they say.
