Bunhouse - a non-management-heavy farming simulator but you are bunnies growing plants. Cute as hell. There is a sequel where you run a bakery too but we haven’t got round to that just yet.
Unrailed - might fall into the overcooked catagory, but when it gets hard and goes wrong it tends to be a looming inevitablity, not a frantic panic
Nidhogg - a 1v1 fighter, but is quick fire frantic sword fights you can button bash through which is wildly entertaining in 5 min bursts.
I’m not even a huge platformer guy, but Rayman Legends is absolute peak and a fantastic, chill co-op game. The music levels in particular - where the already great soundtrack is synced in time to your jumps and hits - are incredibly satisfying and so well made.
I’d also be remiss if I didn’t suggest Blue Prince. It’s not co-op per se as it’d only be one person at a time “driving”, but the game is about puzzle solving so who holds the controller doesn’t really matter. It’s a fantastic game if you enjoy puzzles and escape rooms. My sister isn’t even a gamer at all but I recommended it to her fiancé and they’ve been playing together and even she’s been enjoying it a lot. From my own experience playing it on my own I also think it would be much more fun if playing alongside someone else. I’ve often missed having someone to bounce ideas off when stuck.
On the notion of “one person at a time driving,” I played Outer Wilds with my partner. 10/10. Just make sure that when there is text, both people can read it before you move on.
I'm currently playing Research Story, that one is pretty cute. There are romances. I don't know about combat since I haven't gotten that far (just a few hours of play); it doesn't really seem like there will be combat, but there could be.
I'd also recommend Apico, Mudborne, Littlewood, or Fields of Mistria. I'm sure I'm missing a ton. I think Steam has "Cute," "Romance," and "Slice of Life" tags if you wanted to browse those on the storefront.
Flock is an underplayed cozy game with no combat. You are a bird and you find other birds, sometimes not birds, to join your flock and fly around. It’s completely chill and enjoys a really soft color palette (pink for sure but also purples, pale orange skies, blues, etc.)
Oh man I thought this was VORON for a bit (I had forgotten the game was called VORON). It is not, but if you are interested in Flock you might like VORON
Uhhh can give a game with no combat, but it doesn’t have the rest. Well, female player character helps too, right? Heaven’s Vault is a game about Aliyah and her traveling the rivers of the universe and finding artifacts or writing written in ancient and translating it. I like it, some prime find parts very janky. Can’t die, I’ve tried in the few areas she can take damage.
Damn. These are all really sick photos. I’ll have to add the UI Removal mod. I think I saw the one you’re talking about while googling if there is a photo mode
