Is it my turn to *checks notes* predict silksong?

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I wanted to comment to you before, but with all the "Silksong got rated" news, and indie world getting announced soon after, I too thought maybe it's finally time!

But apparently not.

Maybe if you hadn't predicted it...

Oh, the kitty one looks adorable! Both of them. I've realized there's multiple kitty games!

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Cat's Quest games are pretty great. I loved the first one, and am playing the second one right now. Third one looks even better. These games are full of so many puns, I wonder if "Cat thulu" will make a return, since it seems we would be going to sea a lot more.

Yeah the cat quest games were super funny. I don't think I finished either one of them but both were enjoyable the time I spent with them.

Link to when the Direct starts.

Surprised there's another TMNT game coming out on Switch this year!

I'm actually quite hyped for Steamworld Heist 2! The original was one of the first games I got on Switch - kept me entertained for a good while.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh yeah! I was really happy with that announcement. Loved the first one.

When they mentioned Steamworld, I thought it might be a port of Steamworld Build, but this is just great!

[–] OmegaMouse@pawb.social 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I played a demo of Build and it was ehhhhh. I don't think it would work well on Switch, in terms of the UI and stuff.

Heist on the other hand felt like a perfect Switch game. Can't wait!

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh, sad to hear about Build. I was hoping to try it some day. I think some other devs made that one though.

[–] OmegaMouse@pawb.social 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'm sure it's not a bad game - it just felt very generic from the demo. Definitely worth trying the demo on Steam if you can.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Will do, thanks!
