Oh thanks for reminding me that Downwell needs to be played. It was recommended by so many people. This was legit how I played games to see if I could finish them and when I did thats when I started Good Game Lobby. Excited to see you work through the backlog!
Such a fun goal! I recommend oxenfree as it tackles the horror genre differently, and is under 10hrs I believe. I havent played 2 but looking fwd to it.
For something really short but has an inspiring story, try Venba. It’s a cooking game based on an indian family who moved to Canada. It tackles a lot about immigration and culture.
It was the game play. I did try to complete it for 6 hours and got quite far but it wasn’t fun to me. Basically you fly so there is no platforming element and the way you get skills is unlocking “people” you carry around and I found it clunky. It is pretty though and the story telling is nice
Graveyard Keeper has been in my steam library for ages! I think it has potential but I just fell out of the habit. I feel like my gaming backlog may look large but there are only ever 2-3 games that I really want to pick up and play.
That's the trouble, I fell into the steam sale trap and kept buying games that I had seen in a review or collection and just bought it. I have rules around buying games now too, to give me a framework to not get too overwhelmed.

Amazing. That’s good to know that it worked for you and got you inspired to do more writing and sharing. 💚
Yeah downwell is fun and tricky. I haven’t gotten very far yet but to me it has the “just one more run” factor.

Thanks for the lovely recommendation. I do have Venba on my wishlist it turns out but will move it up. 😊
Awesome let me know what you think when you get to it!
What didn't you like about Owl Boy? That game has been on my wish list for a while and it's currently on sale on the e-shop.

Yeah that doesn't sound very interesting tbh
Oxenfree is a really interesting game with a very slick dialogue system.
I’m on a shortish flight next week so I think I’ll give it a go then. Sounds like it will be good with headphones 🎉
+1 for oxenfree, +10 for doing it with headphones...I'm very easily creeped out but thoroughly enjoyed this one!!
