Update 11 - Vampire Survivors
I got knocked on my ass by a migraine yesterday and it’s still here. It makes it difficult to write in earnest at length.
So instead I’ll recommend this five dollar game called Vampire Survivors. It was started by one Italian guy by himself, and has become a best seller on steam and other platforms. The only controls are that you move around with the analog stick while your attacks happen automatically. You find upgrades and new abilities as you go on, and the tempo of the game and number of enemies picks up the longer a match goes. A wonderful way to kill a half hour, and a good number of unlockables to give you new things to screw around with.
I love games developed by small teams. Has to be one of my favorites genders.
