I picked up Dinkum. I thought maybe it will be the Minecrafty Animal Crossing-like that I hoped would be made one day. I didn't play it yet, but it looks like what I want out of a Deck game (besides the Deck<->Switch thing). I also got Necesse, a game with similar themes.

I picked up The Rewinder as well, which looks like my idea of a quintessential indie game.

Besides, after a decade of only buying things on deep [1] after they're out of the zeitgeist, I think it's about time I play things that are a bit earlier in their lifecycle. Especially indie stuff, where the money isn't going to some exec's yacht polish.

While I bought it some time ago, I finally got around to playing Grim Fandango Remastered, which has been delightful on the Deck. I love how the game was conceived for a totally different type of machine than what I'm playing it on.

[1] it appears this community auto-removes the word for "reduction in price". I guess there's good reasons for that, but this is a Steam Sale thread lol

As a Terraria fan I really enjoyed Necesse. When I played it was lacking content, but I think there have been some decent additions recently.
