i.e, me looking at whatever steam recommended to me, and writing my opinions of it (as posted on the TBGs)
peak: looks interesting, but since it's mainly a co-op game I don't think I can experience it fully (I don't have intimate friends, let alone ones that have this game). it is cheap though
there is no game: not jam edition: currently on sale; I could pair this with peak
the farmer was replaced: python made into a game, I think. not sure how much can I play this before getting bored, but I think it's worth a try
geometry dash: not that I feel like buying another ex-rhythm game right now but sure I'll think about it
balatro: not sure if card games are my jam, but people say it's good. i'll look into it
overcooked! (2): played this with my cousin back then and it was nice, but again it's mainly a co-op game so I can't experience this fully. local co-op is an option, but I only have my keyboard to play
a little to the left: visually stunning, not very engaging. not sure if this is for me
poly bridge 3: probably not with that price. got a feeling I need to splurge a little though
deltarune: look I love the game but the price is just too high for me. maybe I'll wait when chapter 5 releases or something, and then I'll consider it. sorry
Will comment on the ones I have played:
Peak - actually, not bad single player. It’s basically a survival climbing game. It sure is fun with friends, and I recommend it like that, but it really is a solid solo game. Also, if you ever need someone to play with, the bodega is here (ik it’s not intimate friends, but we do what we can)
geometry dash - gonna be real, never been my thing. It’s a fine rhythm game. Nothing against it. I like UNBEATABLE more
balatro - trust me. It’s really really good. card game. good card game. trust me. it good. good game. fun. It also taught me my poker hands, so that’s a nice bonus
deltarune - one day I will finish undertale, and then I will play deltarune. There is a free demo of the first two chapters, so I don’t think there is any reason not to try it; if it isn’t your thing, then don’t buy it. If you like it, buy it
completely unprompted but world of goo is seven dollars on steam rn
if you haven’t already i’d highly recommend getting it, it’s such a fun puzzle game and i think you might like it based on what you’re describing here
