      I have Valkie 64, and I say save your money. Last I played it, it was VERY rough, unpolished, and felt unfinished. It didn’t properly replicate N64 graphics, looking more like an emulator from 2005 with the internal resolution cracked way up and only basic bilinear texture filtering. The controls are clunky, and I don’t mean like in an N64 game way, I mean they just feel bad.

      Even for $5 USD or whatever, I say its not worth it. I was disappointed because the trailer seemed to make it look like an attempt to recapture the magic of Ocarina of Time, but it doesn’t do that at all. Like, not even close.

      I made the indie game INK INSIDE, which is based on a lost cartoon pilot I pitched to Nickelodeon in 2015.

      Instead, I turned it into a cartoon show action RPG staring Brian David Gilbert.

      It has a completely unique combat mechanic that’s a combination of beat-em-ups and bust-a-move. It’s big on narrative, loot, and world building and even has live action segments.

      We’re on sale at 50% for only $10.

      Would love for you to check it out, as it seems like you might really enjoy it based on the other games in your cart!

      PS - Game works great on Steam Deck! (We just don’t have the green check yet because it takes Valve forever to provide them)

      Nice taste, similar to mine. I just picked up Sapo 3D. Played Pseudoregalia recently and loved it.

      I suggest you take a look at Cavern of Dreams and Frogun.

          So many frog games with Kero Quest 64 too!

          Lol yes. Already on my Wishlist!

          Frogs are what peak 3D platformer performance looks like.

      Looks like you enjoy retro-style 3D platformers. Get Corn Kidz 64!

      Like Pseudoregalia, it’s another N64-style 3D platformer released in 2023 with a goat protagonist trapped in a dream. This is an oddly narrow coincidence.

        I have it on my wishlist! But have to cut the spending somewhere haha. I’d also like to get Cyber Knights, A Hat In Time, Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom, Skin Deep and Soulash 2 - but it’s just too much money with so little time for gaming now (especially with keyboard + mouse for the latter two).

      Cast to Chill is a pretty great fishing game for the steam deck. I’ve been enjoying it since the NextFest demo.

      A Game About Digging a Hole looks to be a fun game to play while your legs fall asleep on the toilet. Only 20% off, but it’s a sub $5 game.
