You hang out in the ship and view your friends on the monitors, once you have some walkies and a teleporter, it can be pretty fun to be in the ship.
Do I teleport out that person with a big red dot going towards them, forcing them to drop their loot but likely saving their life?
I had one where a friend was in front of me, all of a sudden he starts getting tp’d out, next thing I know I’m chomped. Friend was able to save one of us, but not all.
No matter how popular it is, I’m pretty sure I don’t have to play it to know I wouldn’t like it.
You walk into rooms, and if there’s no monster, you collect the scrap. If there is, you either die instantly and present a clip for your teammates, or there’s a very simple counter for them that just requires not instantly panicking.
Lots of waiting for your teammates to finish a mission because you just got unlucky.
Stellaris allows many players if you like those types of games. Only the host needs dlc if you want to pool your cash and buy some. But yeah it can be expensive.
Since you mention Paradox titles, I’d add Crusader Kings III, Europa Universalis IV, and/or Hearts of Iron 4. Same rules apply for those games’ DLC, as well.
I played the entirety of “Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion”, which was short, fun, and cute. I’m increasingly finding that I lack the stamina and mental headspace for large games, and I’m appreciating the little indie games a lot more. Something about the combination of cute food characters and running around committing petty crimes and ripping up documents just really appealed to me.
Yesterday I started “Earthlock”, which I got a couple of months ago in a giveaway. I’m liking it so far. Has a lot of “Final Fantasy games in the 1990s” vibes which is working for me. There’s more frogs than I expected, which is always a pleasant surprise.
I thought you suggested it because of my username. Even better than you didn’t notice, and have now realised there’s another reason I should play Frog Detective. 🐸
Oh I love Frog Detective! I played it together with my (then) 5 year old daughter, where I was required to read out loud all the dialogue in funny voices.
They are indeed very cute and short games.
Also since you did not mention playing remotely or not (although there are ways around that: parsec, steam remote play together…) almost any couch coop game: overcooked, moving out, unrailed…
Edit: all of those I cited have a online multiplayer mode I think, for overcooked the AYCE edition contains all of the first edition content but brings online MP amongst other things
Ever heard of the Trine series? 5 games by now (can only speak about the first 4 though), and they are really fun together. Basically 2d puzzle games with 3 different characters that all have their own abilities, which leads to many different ways to solve puzzles. Highly recommended.
I finished Laika : Aged through blood. An indie metroidvania / 2d bike shooter / bullet time.
And i can say that it is, damn amazing!
It’s the story of a mother in a post-apocalyptic environment having to care for her daughter and village while doing the war outside.
Everything, art, music, is a masterpiece. The music is just extremely good.
Outside of special zones, there are 20 you have to find, and it cycles between them. All 20 are voice, with words or humming.
The story is good, and is extremely anti-war.
The gameplay feels amazing. It can be hard at first, but I quickly learned how to control the bike and and to do backflips and frontflips at the right time to reload guns and the pary.
The main character laika is one-shot, but the game isn’t very punishing. The respawn points aren’t too far away from each other, and they are optional. When you die, you loose a pouch with the currency, and can get it back.
There are some little issues with the game tho. It doesn’t tell that combo rewards more currency from enemies (it’s a timed combo, sho shooting will either increase or refresh the combo, and shooting flying bodies increases the combo up to 2 more times). The ending seems to also be a bit rushed. The ending boss isn’t that difficult, and there were some cuts it seems.
But overall these little issues aren’t that bad, and the game is still amazing.
