the next oddly hyperspecific category is GAMES THAT LOOK LIKE MEDIEVAL MANUSCRIPTSScriptorium is an medieval manuscript art tool with a fun story mode, designed to make cartoonish illuminated drawings. Make art for your clients or just yourself that's absolutely covered in guys riding snails.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3119540/Scriptorium_Master_of_Manuscripts

Secondly (and i'm baffled that there's 2 of these??) is LEGENDS OF THE ROUND TABLEThis one i'm curious about; reviews from general rpg fans seem mixed, but reviews from people who have opinions on Malory's original La Morte d'Arthur are consistently impressed. If that's you, maybe check it out??https://store.steampowered.com/app/2387040/Legends_of_the_Round_Table

your other indie-replacement is SNAP AND GRABcan you replicate the chaos and fun of the Hitman trilogy's rube-goldberg assassinations on no budget? The Roundabout and 100 foot robot golf devs said yes, and made a hilarious attempt that's full of bad jokes and criminal yuri. What more can i ask for?https://store.steampowered.com/app/897160/Snap__Grab

second shmup recommendation of the month:Touhou Lensed Night Sky! It's a touhou fangame! there's a bit of roguelike, but mostly it's just good touhou content. Honestly I'm mostly posting this to alert all the Touhou girls to how cute Aunn is in this. Look at her. Buy this game and appreciate herhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/1825250/Touhou_Lensed_Night_Sky_Kaseigai

Another hyperspecific one: MYSTERY ADVENTURE GAME WITH A FOCUS ON TIMETHE POSTHUMOUS INVESTIGATION is a time-loop neo-noir mystery solving adventure game based on the writings of Machado de Assis, one of brazil's most famous novelists. If that doesn't sell you... do you just hate mysteries?https://store.steampowered.com/app/2466900/The_Posthumous_Investigation/

If you've already solved that case, though, there's MOSES AND PLATO - LAST TRAIN TO CLAWVILLELots of great voice acting, lots of questions to answer, and most importantly, lots of furries to find on this train. There's even a bug!!! I have to shout out a game with bug furries. :D :D :D https://store.steampowered.com/app/2230450/Moses__Plato__Last_Train_to_Clawville

If your preferred retro aesthetic leans more gameboy, however, there's THE THIRD SHIFT, a horror adventure game in the vein of of the FAITH trilogy about working at a horrifying museum. It's even got a spooky 90s-ass FMV trailer, what more can i ask for?https://store.steampowered.com/app/2079480/The_Third_Shift/

speaking of fmv, there's GOD I LOVE GAMES THAT USE FMV IN THEMForbidden solitaire is the incredible blend of the solitaire game devs behind Regency Solitaire and the horror-fmv geniuses behind Home Safety Hotline. That's a winning fucking combination, one i'm dying to try. Looks evil!!https://store.steampowered.com/app/3414580/Forbidden_Solitaire/

and while they're very different genres, my last two games do share one category: an ABSOLUTELY BAFFLING TITLE THAT I DON'T UNDERSTANDMOVES OF THE DIAMOND HAND is the newest Cosmo D game. If you don't know that name, play betrayal at club low, experience peak RPG oddity, then return to play this.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2778210/Moves_Of_The_Diamond_Hand

And lastly we have THE WIDE OPEN SKY IS RUNNING OUT OF CATFISH. Apparently there are catfish in this game, so maybe it makes sense once you play it. Either way, a photography game in a truly odd world seems like a really good way to spend at least a few hours. Thanks for reading all of these!https://store.steampowered.com/app/3172760/The_Wide_Open_Sky_is_Running_out_of_Catfish/

i enjoy the way Botan Kamiina visualizes college as a place you go to be gay about women and drink alcohol and do nothing else. education does not exist. only women

@benhamill sometimes both the other team's goalies get injured and they don't have anyone who can sub in, but your zamboni driver used to play goalie in local friendly games years ago, so you go "haha take this guy he's 40 years old" as an emergency optionand then your team sucks so fucking bad that they can't score more then 2 goals on the guy, get completely shut out for an inning, and he becomes the oldest goalie to ever record a win in major league hockey
