Classic turn based RPG gameplay combined with a dark interdimensional space opera... with some twists thrown in for good measure. Dᴀᴀᴛʜ Oʀɪɢɪɴѕ features HD graphics, programming, story and a 31 song original soundtrack... created by a single person.

• A giant galaxy to explore, broken down into 36 sectors
  
• Over 500 handcrafted planets to explore in space, in-orbit, on the "surface" (or just send an away team!)
  
• Command your away teams, level them up, invade ships & explore sites of interests across the multiverse
  
• Spatial anomalies that bend time & space, transport you across the galaxy, or even into alternate dimensions
  
• Your actions change how the rest of the galaxy perceives you: with good, neutral, and evil alignments
  
• Multiple factions to join or to destroy, with devastating consequences for the rest of the galaxy
  
• Promote a skilled crew member each time you level up, but don't let them mutiny later based off of your actions
  
• When battling enemies, you have the ability to target specific systems such as Life Support or Main Power
  
• Over 75 unique quests created by the developer, with another 20+ respawning random quests for good measure
  
• Tons of post "main quest" content, and a lore friendly New Game+ to play once you're ready
  
• Epic "Ultra Bosses" and tons of hidden items and secrets for the discerning role player
  
• Collect and mine resources, which can be Atom Printed into weapons, armor, and items for your starship
  
• 26 main crew members, including 9 Executive Officers to help in your journey
  
• 26 playable classes bring divergent content, bonuses and story branches from the very start!
  
• and more...

Holy shit that looks cool.

 

[LESS T_T]

Looks rather unique. Though personally, with this aesthetics, I would like to have a slower paced (and more exploration-focused) game than a shmup.

Oh I've been meaning to learn for some weeks. Is this game good for beginners/AI?

 

[anvi]

The original battle chess was good for beginners, and pros. It had good difficulty settings.

Tessa's Ark, a visual novel style "sci-fi RPG set in a world where humans exist as beings of pure thought, and perception defines the boundaries of reality":

The Essence Reaper Ritual, "a classical epic fantasy RPG videogame where you lead a party of up to 5 adventurers":

Seemingly used a lot of store assets (and even synthetic voice for narration and stock voices) and looking quite bland, but at least it looks like the creator have put some effort.


SHE SAVE, "a short action game that a girl with horns fights to save something":

TAURONOS, a top-down exploration game where you exploring "an ancient labyrinth, chased by the mythical Minotaur":

 

[LESS T_T]

JackHammer, another one of nuSkool arena shooter, with robots, Thunderdome reference, and Green Man Gaming as a publisher:





Somewhat popular flash free running game series Fancy Pants Adventure is back with Super, published by Kongregate:

 

[LESS T_T]

Herve keep castling:




Age of Fear 3: The Legend, "a refreshingly fun strategy that marries a tabletop wargame with elements of RPG":





I think this series has fans here.



Rise of Industry, "a strategic tycoon game that puts you in the shoes of an early 20th-century industrialist", from the publisher of Project Highrise:

Iron Tides, "rogue-like Viking simulator", "with epic tactical battles and dungeon-crawler elements":

Alpha demo is available: https://irontides.com/demo/

 

[Viata]

That Rise of Industry made me wonder if there is any 2D city building released/EA/being developed recently. I dislike 3D city building.

 

[anvi]

Castles was way > Castles 2.

 

[Turjan]

That Rise of Industry made me wonder if there is any 2D city building released/EA/being developed recently. I dislike 3D city building.

This has been released yesterday:



Not sure if it's any good though, as it tries to do too many things at once I guess.

 

[Viata]

Yeah, I'll wait for some more reviews first.

 

[Dickie]

I saw the name "Megacity Builder" and thought it was gonna be something to do with Judge Dredd.

 

[Fedora Master]

Games Workshop started a new contest between their games and also released quite a few updates. TWW gets an ability for Kemmler to summon Krell, Deathwing received a big new update.

[Fedora Master]

It's too expensive to be a joke gift, too. Are there that many fujoshi on Steam?

Spoiler

It's probably gay nerds who buy this game.
