^---(+)(+)(+)---^My Recommended Indie Game of The Week^---(+)(+)(+)---^ *>*>*>Joy Exhibition<*<*<* ---Price--- Free, but donations are welcomed! ---About--- You're a human, trying to communicate with alien like beings. This alien race are mute, so you must express your feelings in the form of art! Art is too boring you say? We got infinite procedurally generated alien paint guns, so get out there and shoot that canvas! Our guns are heavily advanced, so don't be surprised if they shoot incredible imagery! Soon as your done blasting the canvases, place them in the art gallery to see how the aliens react! ---My Review--- *Spoiler Free* This is one of the most experimental development team I have ever seen, their projects are nothing short then amazing! I follow all of the latest games they develop. Reason? Well, because the create such unique breeds of games! These games usually consists of relaxing, explorative, and outlandish visuals! So if you ever consider trying something new. Why not try a Strangethink game? You'll definitely enjoy it! The game's paint gun mechanics reminds me a lot of Borderlands, especially since there is over a million procedurally generated guns. Why it has a similar excitement, every time you get a new paint gun! What is also super fun, is how creative you can get with the painting tools. Sure, you might not be able to create something extremely specific. I feel like though that's the point, to create something beautiful with a exotic paintbrush. 10/10 Hypnotizingly good! ---Q & A--- Q: How do I save my artwork? A: Simply by selecting "save artworks", before you exit. Q: How do I get more procedurally generated guns? A: By pressing the button, under the slotted gun. Q: Is there a end game? A: No, think of it like a sandbox. Enjoy yourself, from what the game has to offer. ---Links--- Joy Exhibition Game Download Link: https://strangethink.itch.io/joy-exhibition

^---(+)(+)(+)---^Special Offers^---(+)(+)(+)---^ *>*>*>OK/NORMAL<*<*<* https://youtu.be/hk0vsWVs9QA ---Price--- $0.50, If you miss the special offer. It'll be $3.00! ---About--- Remember those days where you were snuggled up on the television, playing your PlayStation One games? Did you ever played past your bedtime? This game captures that cozy atmosphere, while also splashing that sweet vaporwave aesthetic at the same time. This is a experimental horror game by the way. So don't get too comfy! Hangout with a cloud friend, eat, and always make sure you take those pills! ---My Review--- *Spoiler Free* This game is visual trip, it's like going through the dark side of vaporwave! I swear the game has left me with so many questions! Although I felt on my 2nd playthrough, that I slowly began to understand. It's a very interesting concept, I don't think there is enough of vaporwave horror games. Vaporwave can become a good a** horror aesthetic, and this game nails it on the head! There were also some legitimate spooks I received (which by the way I'm not that easy to scare)! 10/10 Horror vaporwave done right, surrender your mind to it's aesthetic! ---Q & A--- Q: Help, I'm lost! A: The game does this intentionally, there is no way you should receive help. Q: Does this have controller support? A: Yes, it wouldn't feel like a PlayStation One game without one! There is also keyboard support like usual. Q: Should I buy the "Itch.io" version or the "Steam" version? A: I lean more on "itch.io", for the reason it'll give more money to the creators. Its just that "Steam" has a nasty 30%-sh cut, but if you have loose change in your "Steam" wallet then by all means. ---Links--- OK/NORMAL Itch.io Game Download Link: https://98demake.itch.io/oknormal OK/NORMAL Steam Game Download Link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/862580/OKNORMAL/

^---(+)(+)(+)---^Web Browser Bytes^---(+)(+)(+)---^ *>*>*>99 Rooms<*<*<* ---About--- This escape room game "99 Rooms" was a passion project, from a small creative team. It has been created with breath taking graffiti visuals, with a splash of life to every setting. Sure, they're all might be in abandon buildings. It's for the aesthetics' sake though! The game's visual euphoria is accompanied by a unsettling smooth musical tone. That somehow, makes the memorizing visuals that much better! So give the project a little taste and fall into it's unsettling lucidity! ---My Review--- *Spoiler Free* Oh wow "99 Rooms", I'm finally able to talk about this visual masterpiece. The game is indefinitely without a doubt, a quite odd experience. I never felt so uncomfortable, yet feel so comfortable at the same (well except in my dreams). It's like I never wanna wake up from "99 Rooms" it has one of the strongest holds on my mentality. I cherish the music so dearly, I bought the souvenir. Just so I can listen to the high quality CD's soundtrack! It's a life experience, that you wouldn't want to miss. 10/10 A lucidity, that you would never want to escape from. ---Q & A--- Q: Help, I'm stuck! A: You can skip the room, by level selecting. It'll be on the "Room ##" button, which is located on the lower left corner. Try to beat it without cheating first, if possible! Q: Is there any warnings that I shouldn't do? A: Only one, if you rapidly click your mouse everywhere. The game could possibly skip a room. So take it easy, and think. Q: Where can I buy the souvenir? A: Here you go, you'll need to scroll down a little bit to see it. http://www.rostlaub.com/ ---Links--- 99 Rooms Web Browser Game Link: http://cdn.99rooms.com/99rooms.html

^---(+)(+)(+)---^Web Browser Bytes^---(+)(+)(+)---^ *>*>*>Midnight Drive<*<*<* ---About--- You've been driving for awhile at midnight, It's such a long way to the destination. Whew, feeling a little tired aren't you. Lets check if your car door is properly locked, maybe I should also put some tunes too. Why some tunes? It's because it looks like your falling asleep on me buddy. You know being sleepy while driving is quite dangerous. Are you sure you don't want me to take the wheel? No … um? Okay, I trust you. ---My Review--- *Spoiler Free* This game is incredibly realistic. It doesn't need to have high performance graphics, to show us the dangers of drowsy driving. The game is a absolute nightmare to survive. I feel it's difficulty is quite justified though. You are trying to drive to a location half asleep. I'm pretty sure plenty of people can easily relate to this feeling. Doesn't matter if your a driver or a passenger. Both of you still can be endangered of driver fatigue. For emulating this message so perfectly is quite phenomenal. 9/10 I love this game to death, but it needs a little more polish. It has the occasional stutters every so often. ---Q & A--- Q: Is the game difficult? A: You don't know the half of it, it can be so painfully sadistic at times. Q: Is there a end? A: Yes, there is a end. Q: I keep getting sleepy what should I do? A: Look I'm gonna actually give you a tip this time, because this wasn't obvious to me right away either. Hold the radio down, whatever channel you're on doesn't matter at all. It's all about fiddling with the radio, to keep you awake. ---Links--- Midnight Drive Web Browser Game Link: https://clonedeath.itch.io/midnight-drive

^---(+)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)(+)---^My Total Number Of Posts, Is Age Legal^---(+)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)(+)---^ *>*>*>Love At First Sight<*<*<* https://youtu.be/9IjucogSAnE ---Price--- $10.00 ---About--- You're just a average school student, hanging out with your weird friends and whatnot. Till you find yourself meeting eyes to eye, with this strange girl with a single ocular eye. Your heart freezes up a bit, but its not because how she looks. Is it love? You don't know for sure, all you want to do is to try and see her once more. Maybe you can start a conversation, and get to know here a little better? You must try, at the very least! ---My Review--- *Spoiler Free* Have you ever fallen in love? Like truly fallen in love, the kind that makes you want to fully embrace that significant other for an eternity? Well this game should be called true love simulator, because its one good a** visual novel. I never felt such fuzzy emotions till Sachi swipes into my view. She isn't a 2D character, she is a fully fleshed character. Sachi and I, progress so much through out this story. Conquered obstacles, and overcome our goals easily as long as were together. We are blessed to have such lovely friends. Akemi and Tomonori, wow those guys are the best. I never felt so invested to side characters like this before, they feel like actual friends. The emotions in this novel is surreal. The art is also so smooth, and yet so scenic. The artist is quite talented, it captures such raw emotions in every stroke of the brush. Oh, and don't get me started with the music. It makes me wanna cry every time I here it. 10/10 Will touch the scabs on my cute Sachi, at anytime of the day! ---Q & A--- Q: Is there any branching pathways? A: No, just enjoy the experience! Q: How can you possibly fall in love, with something like that? A Love knows no bounds, the most important part to me is the person's personality. Once you understand that, you'll notice what true love is. Q: Is this 18+, hmm? A: No, it's about falling in love. It's not about sex. ---Links--- True Love At First Sight Steam Game Download Link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/353330/Love_at_First_Sight/

^---(+)(+)(+)---^Web Browser Bytes^---(+)(+)(+)---^ *>*>*>Nanowar<*<*<* ---About--- It's time to think small! How small? Microscopic, my dear pilot! Wait you don't know what you singed up for ? Welcome too "Nanowar" cadet! We need you to fight against the nano-machines! This arcade game is a intense bullet hell shooter. Rank up the scores, and see how far you get! Will you be able to win the "Nanowar", or will you get crushed under the microscope? ---My Review--- *Spoiler Free* I love this game, it's so fun! It reminds me so much of "Tempest", a old classic where you're a ship who shoots on rails. I highly recommend this game as a time waster! I just kept playing and playing. I also love it's the aesthetic, the green and purple colors clashes so well. All the power ups as well feel worth while too! I can't recommend this fun arcade shooter enough, I can't stop thinking about how it sparks my old love for "Tempest". 10/10 Will go to a "Nanowar" again, no doubt about it! ---Q & A--- Q: Can I just continue, after I lose? A: Yes, but you'll lose your score. Your upgrades too, I think! Q: Does this have a leaderboard? A: No, it's all focused on your personal score. Q: Is there a downloadable version? A: Nope. ---Links--- Nanowar Web Browser Game Link: https://benjames171.itch.io/nanowar

^---(+)(+)(+)---^My Recommended Indie Game of The Week^---(+)(+)(+)---^ *>*>*>#21: The World<*<*<* ---Price--- Free, but donations are welcomed. ---About--- The next successor of "Osamu Sato's LSD Dream Emulator", the cult classic that was cherished by many. This game grabs the same emotional escape of "Osamu Sato's LSD Dream Emulator", but tweaked by the creators own dream journal input. Experience raw fear, tranquility, and scenic spectacles. Your dreaming, and you have so much settings yet to explore! Try to find them all, and discover the mystical "Reese's Puff Cow"! ---My Review--- *Spoiler Free* I f*cking love this game, I bring this game straight from my personal vault. I know some might not be interested in "Osamu Sato's LSD Dream Emulator-sk" type of game, but you should at least give "#21: The World" a try. I sh*t you not, this game gets me in such a emotional high. The music choices are superb, catchy, and coming at you live from the underground. I never played something made with such passion. I also love the skits, very artsy, yet respectfully dream like. 10/10 I secretly recommend this to everyone I know, I'm not kidding! ---Q & A--- Q: Is there a end goa? A: Yes! Q: Is there lots of secret areas? A: A shit ton, I'm not joking around! Q: Is this your last review? A: No and Yes, I have been doing too many reviews. It has been taking a toll on my health. So I'm going to exclusively do recommend games of the week only. Until I feel a little better. ---Links--- #21: The World Game Download Link: https://lsddev.itch.io/21-the-world
