    Just bought Lil Gator Game, Just finished Lil Gator Game.

    Was moved to tears multiple times.

    In all seriousness, I recommend it as fuck. And it plays amazing on the deck too.

          Oh yeah you should! Cute, charming and i keep suspecting it was a bit of a love note to Calvin and Hobbes because the unnamed girl is just like the little girl version of Calvin 😆

          Go blind if possible. Do have in mind that the platforming in most of the game isn’t too hard but there’s points where it does ramp up significantly.

            Already not blind for the first half of the game because there was a wild Alpharad once.

            Spoilers don’t hold power over my enjoyment generally though, so gonna I’m go check it out either way

            Also I crave the difficult platforming.

    I am eyeing Dave the Diver and The Forgotten City. I am just waiting to get my OLED Deck and start playing them.

    I don’t really need any new game as I have a substantial backlog and hopefully with the Deck I will start to clear it.

    I am already looking forward to the holidays.

      I went into The Forgotten City completely blind and found it to be very compelling and creative experience that I didn’t want to stop playing. I hope you enjoy it if you decide to buy it!

      Dave the diver is a blast. The premise is simple and fun but it’s constantly evolving and building on what’s there with a charming cast of characters and events. Id highly recommend it.

          Some quick searches suggest Nexon having a pretty poor reputation on account of aggressive micro transactions/loot boxes. That is pretty shitty behavior for sure.

          I wonder if purchasing a game like DtD, a game without such poison, is helpful to send a message that people like games without these predatory tactics.

          Who am I kidding? It wouldn’t change anything.

    I got RDR2 to play on my deck, already played it a few years ago on PS5 but I’ve been wanting to play it again.

    I highly recommend Death Must Die. It is early access, as a fair warning. But it successfully mixes up Hades with Vampire Survivors and a few others. Runs great on Deck as well. The dialog can be cringe and the story is clearly under development. But if you want a fun gameplay loop–this is the game.

    I just got a Steam Deck and will be using it as a console with my wife & kids - in that light I’ve bought a lot of smaller co-op and local multiplayer games:

    • Stick Fight: The Game
    • Stikbold! A Dodgeball Adventure
    • Moving Out
    • Broforce
    • Cook, Serve, Delicious
    • Portal 2
    • Rubber Bandits
    • HOT WHEELS UNLEASHED
    • Horizon Chase Turbo
    • Ultimate Chicken Horse
    • Human Fall Flat
    • CarX Drift Racing Online
    • Nidhogg
    • Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed Collection

    We’ll see what else we’ll go for, but that should help us get started :)

    I got Cassette Beasts specifically for my deck, though everything else I got should work, though the controls might be rough.

      You’re in for a treat, Cassette Beasts is so underrated. I played it at release and I still listen to the music regularly.

    Nothing! I’m going with a Sega Dreamcast/Gamecube classic, and jumping into Phantasy Star Online BB for the holiday weekend. Apparently private server even has a guide for getting it running on Steam Deck (or any Linux distro), but I’ll just be playing on PC.

    I grabbed Yakuza: Like a Dragon and Sleeping Dogs Definitive Editon, both of these are supposed to be great on the deck! Still stuck in Packaged purgatory though, so it’s going to be a while before I actually get the chance to play them. There were some other games I was considering, but I gotta stop spending so much money right after buying a new piece of hardware… One day Sekiro will be at 70+% off, and that is the day I’ll buy it.

    So far the only thing I’ve picked up is Xenotilt, and it’s pretty fun. I’m tempted to get Diablo 4 (my friends have been playing it and they tell me the new season is a lot better than the last one), but I hate the always online requirement and how they’ve implemented it.
