A quick note to set you up to possibly enjoy it best: Most of the gameplay is intended to go on in your head, as you mentally assemble clues and go and re-check things. Don’t be discouraged if it takes you a long time to progress part some scene.
That’s a damn fine collection. I have 1000+ hours in Super Meat Boy and Spelunky 2 alone. If you haven’t got Spelunky 1 (aka. Spelunky HD, aka. the first Spelunky on Steam), you should try that too. IMO it’s a much better (i.e. more fair) game than 2. 2 is a fine game, don’t get me wrong, but the first one is phenomenal.
I would recommend 2 for people who played 1 and are starting to get bored of it, as it almost feels like a remix of sorts. Like you said, 1 is definitely a much less flawed game and definitely better for new players. (especially because it’s somewhat easier haha)
No games (so far) because I have enough of a backlog to play but went for a Steam Deck (512 GB version because I like anti-glare and don’t want to upgrade it right away) and dock. I rarely feel like playing at my desk lately but enjoy playing on my Switch on the couch, so the deck should help me work thorugh my backlog.
Bought Deathloop. I never was super excited about it, but it looks like it’s worth 15EUR.
Still thinking about Jedi Survivor, but I’m usually not spending that amount of money on games.
I got deathloop in the monthly humble bundle thing, and I loved it. Didn’t encounter any bug or technical issue, I really liked the story and atmosphere, and as a big fan of the Dishonored series I found the gameplay really good. I guess it can become a bit repetitive towards the end (which is kinda the point), but if you focus on the objectives and moving the story forward there are always new things to do.
I wanted to pick up the Washington and Oregon DLCs for American Truck Simulator, a game I almost never play but it always there waiting for me to pop back in for one run then uninstall lol.
Also picked up Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling Into Darkness (whew, that’s a name alright) because I was just turned on to the show (which is awesome!) and wanted to play it, but full price seems like a total ripoff for such a jank niche game.
Now both are on my Deck for less then I spent at lunch yesterday, and I can get back to slowly poking at my backlog!

Dave the diver and Muse dash with the 300 song pack. Debating on picking up Spin Rythem XD as well.
I finally pulled the trigger on Celeste after hearing so much about it for years.
Return of Obra Dinn. Actually bought it from GoG sale. Heard tons of hype about it.
One of my favourite games. Great choice if you like puzzles!

Harvestella. My wife has like a thousand hours in Stardew. She gets a present and a job offer today. It’s a good day for her.
I didn’t even know it started, lots of games I’ve been interested in…
Can anyone recommend humankind? I’ve heard it’s kinda like a civ knock off but I haven’t heard much for or against it
I plan to grab Valheim and potentially Dave the Diver.
Got myself Fallout 4 for on my deck
Let me know how it runs, for some reason I can never get Fallout 4 to run smoothly on any system.

Nothing yet. There’s nothing I’m after with a deep enough discount at the moment. That may not last though.

Ozymandias
Dome Keeper
DAVE THE DIVER
Poly Bridge 1&2
I needed something more casual. I’ve just stopped playing Dome Keeper, I like it.
Nothing
Same here. I already have many games I haven’t played yet.
Nothing really. I have 1000+ games owned that I have never played. Though it is always tempting. I might buy the outer wilds.
