When I saw this, I immediately sent the link to a gamedev I know who has a disability. They were really excited 🥰

we discussed this over in [email protected] back when it was initially announced! The fandom seems to be delighted about this feature, but I’m personally more concerned about the data privacy aspect of it all…the author is absolutely right to look at this whole thing with scepticism

I find it a little far-fetched to solely link the popularity of otome games to some kind of frustration with modern dating, though. Romance games (and romance in games, e.g. Baldur’s Gate 3 or Mass Effect) offer a lot of fun in-and-of themselves.


It’s a section at the bottom of the steam store page:


Code is also part of Steam’s required AI disclosure form , so I think it should be filtered as well

Here’s the banner I posted in the original thread, it’s a screenshot from steamdb of games with at least 100k reviews and a user rating of at least 89 with the details of each card omitted:


I agree 100%, both look super ugly

As an alternative, there are tons of gamepad icons on freepik like this one that could be used as long as theres an attribution link in the community description.

Also here’s a quick collage I screenshotted from steamdb, feel free to use it if there aren’t any better ones by others:


Infinity Nikki! It’s probably my new favourite dress up game (dethroning FFXIV)

I mean, I like Katawa Shoujo as well, but there’s no need to be that condescending towards other games😅


The "gay furry weeb mario game" (as described by the dev) not only offers lots of platforming action, but also comes prepackaged with tools to create custom levels and mini-games (which honestly are kinda bonkers, judging from the dev's previews) ![](https://discuss.tchncs.de/pictrs/image/fe077037-92a3-404a-a973-19ac882b0cc5.jpeg) Here's the minigames & modding trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EQkhejCoRs *___*

You can solo all of the main story quest except for 8-player boss battles and one required 24-player alliance raid series.


I played Sacrifice for Sale, a small indie comedy/horror visual novel where you’re playing a vacuum salesman who tries to not get sacrificed by a cult. It has a huge amount of different endings, so there’s lots of replayability despite the short length. also the girls who want to kill you are pretty cute

Yesterday, I also finished playing duck detective: the secret salami and it’s pretty amazing. The voice acting is suitably over the top and the artstyle is adorable. hoping for a sequel!
