Perdition
One thing is perpetually obvious while playing through Perdition - it was crafted with passion and incredible attention to detail in regards to player experience.
A prime example of this is how you can’t just hold on to your favorite gun for the entire duration of the game. Once you’re out of ammo, you have to retrieve guns from fallen enemies, and what you get might not always be your first choice. You’re in the middle of combat, and suddenly your SMG is replaced with a grenade launcher, and you as the player are forced to improvise and adapt your combat style.

Wow, for just a couple of people this game is really enjoyable. Combat is buttery smooth, one could say “Doom-esc” style combat with its own unique flavor.
It runs flawlessly, no stutters, frame drops, bugs, or anything of the sort. Well done.
Sadly not really any options are there, however the fact that the game is free and has a silky smooth experience makes up for it. The environment and ambiance with the music is on point. Just the little things such as a clean and non-repetitive soundtrack make the game that much more enjoyable.

Tyler: Model 005
I enjoyed this game and at its price felt it was worth the money.
Pros:
*I liked the characters and the voice acting.
*The dynamics were interesting. Climbing, combat against bugs and wall walking. I do not usually play platform games but this one was so different than most, I decided to give it a shot and was very pleased.
*Graphics are amazing.
Cons:
*I found limited information on the game and with no Controls menu, it was frustrating until I figured things out. Had to read patch notes to get some of the information and I doubt most gamers would go that far.

Like the titular robot, scrappy but with a lot of heart
I was going to wait for the incoming update that will rework the combat, lighting, tutorial, climbing, and control among other things, but after a few months of waiting (now over half a year), I needed to get this up on Steam. I’ll update accordingly come any update dropping!
So that’s a veritable laundry list of significant aspects currently being redone. How does it currently hold up? Remarkably okay - particularly if you’ve got a strong stomach for a little mechanical jank. Immediate worrisome standouts include the aforementioned combat, which offers no feedback and has you whale away at the air in front of an assortment of the most aggressive insects the world’s ever seen to hit them; and the platforming and climbing, which is ultra-finicky at the best of times. Perhaps the bigger problem with the combat is that there’s just nothing to it. Currently, you hold down one of two buttons/triggers to hit with no evasion particularly necessary. Spiders, wasps and beetles make for pretty incidental, uncompelling adversaries too.

Grow Home
A relaxing and enjoyable adventure to help a little robot complete his mission.
Grow Home is an adventure platformer where you play as a robot called BUD. The planet you come from is in danger and the only way to save it is to harvest the seeds of an alien plant. Well it’s not as easy as it sounds. BUD only has basic equipment, he can’t do much other than climb, and since the plant is on the surface and your ship is a couple of thousand meters up, you’re going to have to work for it. You soon realise the only way to get back up there and collect the seeds is to start growing the plant as high as you can, collecting a few things along the way to help you out.

So some of you may have notice some Game Grump videos coming out in the Steam Train branch for Grow Home, and after I saw what you could do in the game I wanted to buy it for myself. It most certainly did not disappoint. Everything it allows you to do is satisfying. The 100% crystal upgrade feels very worth the trouble finding every last crystal. The parachuting mechanics are lovely and work exactly like you’d expect. There are a few very subtle annoyances with the controls but that is rather to be expected with a game that prioritizes in procedural animations. For instance, when walking along a vine you’ve created, jumping or jetpacking off of it at too subtle an angle actually doesn’t work, it forces your character B.U.D. to stay directly above the vine to ensure he lands back on it. This is frustrating sometimes if you get a really sturdy feel for how to control your character and want to get off of a vine with a jetpack but do not jump directly off of the side. I’ve even had this strange wind-force push my character to a specific side of my screen when I was jetpacking well above the vine that would try to ensure my landing on it.

A Day of Maintenance
You’re a distant blip amongst the sands around New Port City; It’s been a long few shifts, but you’re almost done with doing your sweep of the guidance stations for the docking spaceships. Take your Massive Self-Sustaining Installation Repair Truck (or MSSIRT for short); & travel the landscape to fix the last few on your list for the day with your trusty multi-tool crane.
A Day of Maintenance is a new, unusual kind of exploration game, taking cues from In Other Waters, 17776, Signal from Tolva, and Euro Truck Simulator 2
If you’ve ever found yourself thinking:
“I want a kind-of-technical driving game with a little gay romance but also some discussion over robot worker consciousness. (With crane operation gameplay)"
This game is for you.
-
Around 8 hours long
-
This game is deliberately slow-paced. Enjoy the drive, sip a cup of something warm, fix sites in the distant future.
-
Chat with your Robot Boyfriend, 6 workmates, & a couple other characters along the way.
-
Best played with a gamepad. But there’s mouse & keyboard bindings for everything.
Chat with Orby about cool stuff like databases, satellite software, and the possibility of having your mind overwritten by a routine check-up.
As you drive the open desert, your crew of fellow maintenance robots will chew the scenery; debating over trains, spaceships, philosophy, and hats.
Oh! You might also uncover a conspiracy.
Scrap Garden
I have recieved this as a gift from steamgifts.com thanks to my friend
! Panama
A cute 3D platformer in which you play as a small robot called Canny.
This is actually a continuation of a free2play game called Scrap Garden The Day Before, you can totaly skip playing the first one if you don’t want to since in the beginning of this game the narrator will tell what mostly happened in the previous title, however I recommand you to play it since its short and worth your time.
So Canny wakes up and finds out that all the robots have been put to sleep since years or even ages and he goes on his journy to figure out what caused this and how can he save the world of robots.

Scrap Garden is an impressive new 3D puzzle-platformer published by Flazm which you can’t help but to immediately fall in love with. Why you may ask? Because the character you play as is absolutely adorable, even though he is essentially a tin-canned robot named Canny. But he is no ordinary robot at all, because he somehow awakened and is now on a mission to find out what happened to his entire world in this post-apocalyptic setting where all other robots of his kind have stopped moving, becoming seized up and frozen in place. What calamity transpired to cause this fate? How did this all suddenly happen? Well it is your goal to uncover the answers to these vexing questions within the game, by collecting crystals and solving puzzles along the way as it gradually reveals its imaginative story to you.

The Signal From Tölva
I really really like this game.
It’s not without flaws. One or two of the flaws are even pretty large. But the game is still really good.
First, the good:
The game is beautiful. The world is really well-crafted and varied enough that you will almost always have something interesting to look at. In particular, the day/night cycle with its moving shadows and gorgeous night sky is really lovely. Exploring this world is a joy, and you never quite know what you’re going to come across next: Wreckage of giant robots? check. Huge ships? Check. Ancient ruins? Check. It’s all here.

A moody title screen, something about hacking, and you’re in control of a robot… now what?
Tölva took a while to get into. I was sold on this game through flashy screenshots of lasers and robots… but after a very short while I noticed that the weapons are dull and the enemies behave like… well, robots, but not in a positive sense. The ironically small scale of developer Big Robot meant this game could never be completed without skimping in areas where you’d otherwise see quality and variation. Animations are stale, encounters stay the same through the whole game, new weapons bring simple stat increases that keep pace with the strength of enemy shields. You get stuck on things, you get stuck in things, often it feels as if the ground and your feet are two magnets repelling eachother.

Vesper
Beautiful game.
Game play and mechanics are straight forward and well done, but the visual and audio atmosphere of the game are where it really shines
– Real player with 13.3 hrs in game
I’ve played about 90 minutes so far and I’m really enjoying this. The graphics and sound design are top notch. The game play is virtually identical to Abe’s Odyssey, but I really enjoyed that game too so it’s all good!

Adome
ADOME is an emotional single-player first-person adventure that takes us to City of Light, a beautiful futuristic city covered by a dome prepared to withstand the extreme weather caused by climate change.
The city awaits the arrival of the seeds, 7-year-old boys and girls who will be educated and cared for by humanoid robots called instructors. Who also await the arrival of their seeds submerged in a dream.
Suddenly one of them wakes up … The instructor of Ark IB1 feels his seeds and comes out of that dream to carry out the work for which he is programmed.
But in doing so he discovers that something is not going as it should …
Adome gameplay core is based on a satisfying sense of rhythm, smoothness and total control combined with thoughtful and diverse progression.
We are working on an adventure with a solid rhythm on gameplay and story, in which you will enjoy moments of exploration, with smooth parkour movements, combined with frantic action, so each minute you are in the beautiful world of Adome you will feel part of the game.
You will perform parkour, and fight in incredible futuristic settings and beautiful natural environments while immersing yourself in a thrilling story that will catch you from the first minute.
ADOME transports us to the City of Light, a beautiful and spectacular futuristic automated city covered by a dome.
The City of Light was built to house the so-called seeds, but for a strange reason they are not there, and the City is inhabited only by robots with assigned routines that are responsible for keeping it in perfect condition.
Among those robots are the instructors, different from the rest. They are capable of feeling, learning, and thinking for themselves. And with one function: to educate and take care of the seeds, two for each instructor.
Unlike the other robots, the instructors are idle, as they come into operation when they detect one of their seeds. They wait for their arrival.
Unexpectedly, and after 17 years since the city closed its doors and isolated itself from the outside, one of them wakes up… The seed instructor of Ark B1.
IB1 is activated when it detects one of its seeds, the “Y Seed”. But in doing so, he discovers that he is the only instructor who has awakened and that neither “Y Seed” nor any other seed is found in the city… Although he feels a connection with it.
Through his dreams, he can see what she feels. Joy, sadness… Fear.
IB1 begins to ask himself questions, trying to understand what is happening. He will realize that the seed is in danger and that he will have to go on his quest to uncover the dark secret hidden behind the white walls of the city.
“Looking to the future… I discovered that we are children of a memory turned into dust… Supported by our ingenuity and destroyed by our human condition”.
Darkness Under My Bed
It’s creepy and I love it. A great point&click horror experience. 10/10 score and 100% recommended to play if you like interesting and challenging cases/ problems and horror games.
The game has amazing puzzles to solve and a lot to think about. It makes you use your brain and doesn’t spoon-feed you the answers, so you have space to make your own theories. You need to be attentive and keep your eyes and mind open :) The style of the game is very interesting and it doesn’t look like anything I’ve played before, which is great. I am looking forward to playing new games from the same developer!

I went into this blindly, and after the intro I was like.. “whoa this is UNDERwhelming”
but then I played each mode in order till I got to the free exploration… and as I began to understand what this was about, well.. saying I was hooked is an understatement.
I played for about 4 hours and man, this game is like an onion.. layers and layers and layers and layers…
each ‘run’ is short, about 20 or so minutes at the most, but even if you think “oh I’ve done this before”, the game surprises you with a different outcome…
