Corebreaker - Didn't really grab me. A competent 'room clearing' roguelite but I'd rather just stick to Astral Ascent, Neon Abyss or Trinity Fusion.
Reignbreaker - Big fan of the soundtrack and overall style. Not too sure about the rest of the package though. Combat felt a bit unintuitive if I'm honest but maybe that's because I'm just used to Hades and Ravenswatch so much these days. Will keep it on the wishlist for now.
Flash Made Fear - The wrong way to do tank controls. Lacked some QoL features as well. Cool throwback but not for me.
Post Trauma - The right way to do tank controls. Ain't nobody got time for that first padlock puzzle though. Maybe I'll check out the full release but I'll give it a miss for now (performance was woeful btw).

CyberTaxi: Lunatic Nights - Literally unplayable with the awful performance, buggy controls and broken UI. Probably a fun game to pick up on the cheap but this just screams "streamer game" to me. Meh.
Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom - Now this was excellent. Can't believe this has been out since last year already but this platformer just oozes style and character. It plays great as well so I'm definitely grabbing this, if only to bathe in its nostalgic N64 and Dreamcastesque summer vibes.
FUMES - Take Smugglers Run, Cell Damage and Mad Max and you have yourself an amazing Car-Combat-Em-Up on your hands. Love that it just throws you in as soon as you load up the demo. Perfect. Another instabuy when it releases.
Neon Inferno - Another brilliant gem that completely caught me by surprise. It combines elements from Beat-Em-Ups and run-and-gun games like Contra and offers up some neat gameplay tricks of its own as well. Not only does it play well but it looks even better! It really nails the retro visuals (which are customizable as well with filters and the like), something that so many other games fail at. Loved it.

Did you read the last few updates on fortunes run? The dev is going to jail..What’s worrying for me with this next fest is that two games I’ve been following for years now and in early access or with demos did not update for a new demo
Fortune’s run & Death Trash
Eternal early access

Most promising of the day to me was Dead Underworld. Just because I liked its Heroes of Might and Magic pixel art map.

He knew he was in legal trouble all this time and still made his game buyable with such an uncertain future?
If this is ever completed in the future I would be surprised.

Has anyone tried this? They market it as "Witcher meets KCD".

You enter a random map, shoot and end every map with a random power up. Boring and ugly. Pass.
The idea sounds great on paper, the executions lacks severly. UI is horrible and the graphics are all over the place. Pass.
Recommended.
Recommended if you're into this genre.
Absolutely recommend.
Pass.
Gameplay is solid, graphics are fine and is a perfect game to have running on a 2nd monitor.
I don't know how to explain that one, its the way the aiming works and some UE5 games have this issue. Has potential though.

This one is really fun. Just my kind of game with driving, whacky physics, stylish setting, good sound design, and story beats. My only complaint is that for driving in reverse the directions are not inverted like every other driving game. Regardless, in my cannon this is about Jimmy (Bully) Hopkin's granpapi and I can't wait to see this story through in the full release.

Here I thought pixel art and run n' guns had peaked long ago and you recommend this beauty:
*The pictures hardly do it justice. The image quality is CRT heaven.
P.S. I can't remember the last time Steam Next Fest had this many bangers.

Can't add more than 10 steam links in one post so continuing:
Waited for 5 minutes but couldn't find a game.
This game looked intriguing as fuck and it kept that same feeling while playing it. The crunchy ass graphics fit perfect.
Don't ask me wtf happened, I have no idea but I liked it. Might need to get used to it but I recommend this first person dungeon crawler.

Yeah it really is a stunner. One of the best looking games I've seen in recent years, and I mean no hyperbole whatsoever.Here I thought pixel art and run n' guns had peaked long ago and you recommend this beauty:

Great open world action adventure, love the movement and solving puzzles. Combat was just okay, seems like it would get better as more moves unlocked. It’s made it on to my list for sure!

A first person game that lacks the most basic options and is unplayable, without spewing up your lunch, for anyone other than the solo dev who uploaded it? That's not really narrowing it down for a next fest.

He Is Coming - Only played one match of this to know that I will enjoy the frick out of it. The definition of "moreish" basically and it nails the NES vibes. On the wishlist it goes!
Grit & Valor 1949 - Real-time Roguelike Advance Wars? I'll take it!
Dragonkin: The Banished - Could be good but I kept dying as the lightning character in the first dungeon lol (the supposed planned end-game activity that they give you access to during a demo?). Anyway, will wait for reviews for this one. Their previous ARPG was kind of ass (Chaosbane) and I regret picking it up at the time.
UNYIELDER - An absolute mess of a game. Does pretty much everything wrong. From the awful visuals, poor UI, horrific gunplay (screenshake is off the charts with just the base pistol alone), floaty controls, buggy menu, etc. Turned it off after 5 mins. Play Battle Shapers to see how it's done instead.

Tried a few semi-random games. Whisper of the House is a neat little decorating game with pixel art. Starts simple, but later on it seems to add new gameplay mechanics like cleaning. Not for me, but it's well made.
Simple pixel art RTS where you take the fight to the evil Capitalists for the glory of Communism. Deploy blocking units to encourage the penal troops to die gloriously for the cause and root out dissidents among your soldiers. Feels like a something Sega would have done for the Dreamcast.
Game where you raise a Dragon girl similar to Princess Maker. Demo however was Japanese only so it was hard to judge.
Super simple point and click puzzle game where you have to navigate life for a socially awkward giraffe. Not that interesting for me.

The Knightling - Seems lovingly made but the performance was shockingly bad, even on medium. I also couldn't figure out what to do during the first quest where you're meant to go the outskirts and investigate monster attacks. Ran around for ages only managing to solve 2 out of 3 requirements. Might snap it up on the cheap in the future, if they fix the performance that is.
Wartorn - Realtime RTS battler with roguelite mechanics. Interesting art style but also one that made the game look extremely blurry/muddy. Didn't really grab me otherwise.
Mecha BREAK - Lol so this is a meme of a game isn't it? I was very much looking forward to it after all the flashy trailers and what not but man... this just screams cynical GAAS slop! You can't even pause the game during singleplayer? Nice. I alt+f4'd after I saw the exploration hub complete with slow movement speed and hilariously over the top proportions of my lady character in real time. What the fuck lol. It reminded me of that erotic space game called "Subverse", miss me with that shit. Oh and apparently it comes with kernel level anti-cheat as well? Wondering how the hell I'm going to have to remove that.
If anything this has actually reminded me that own Daemon X Machina on PC and so I need to get on that.
Fellowship - Played it for 7 minutes and like someone else here said, it bored me to tears. A shame too as the world itself seemed well made. Just that everything else was undercooked. From the UI to the awful controlscheme, the combat, the animation, the sound design... No thanks. I guess if you're an old MMORPG-head then you'll find some enjoyment out of this I suppose. Definitely not for me.

Oddly enough I got stuck for a while in the exact same spot with 2/3 investigations, it wasn't super well designed. if you do try it again here was the three spots to investigate:
1. Pot of paint that was tipped over inside one of the pens.
2. You have to go inside the window of a different pen while the door is closed, there's claw/scratch marks on the inside of the door (this was the one I couldn't find)
3. A monster crushed underneath a crate at the biggest house
On one hand though, I do appreciate a game not being too hand-holdy.
The other quest I did, fixing the big water wheel, was much better and more intuitive.

I've looked at a lot of games and this was the most unique and fun to me. A 2d space survival sort of game where you have to manage resources and pilot a shuttle safely.

Thread seems to have slowed down big time. We need those recommends my NeoGAF brethren!
The rogue-like edition:
Dead Pixels II-Straight to video. Incredible retro-vhs 1980s and 90s zombie tribute 2D action game. Those easter eggs! That SOUNDTRACK!!
Drift Survivor 2. Simply brilliant fun. One of the few demos I have not deleted from the dozens I've been trying.
Driveloop. There's never enough action/rogue-like car combat games and this one is a riot!
Heli 100. A shump/rogue-light helicopter bullet hell that oozes charm.
Neon Spellstorm. Wizards. Spells. ZOOM ALL THE WAAAAAAAYYYYY IN.(you'll see)

Finally had some game time again.
Decent, well polished roguelite shooter. Looks good graphically although the UI is a bit messy. Seems like a fun game.
Lofi horror game. Didn't managed to get me in this short demo, wish it showed more of its hands.
Im not a fan of procedurally generating levels and thats the main selling point of this game. The demo bored me.
The presentation is good, but at the end of the day I was slowly shooting zombies and moving from left to right.
Vampire Survivors with cars. Seems well made and polished. Personally just tired of this genre but that doesn't take away anything from the game.
Seems heavily inspired by The Witcher/Assassins Creed. Can't help but feel like the developer bit off more than they can chew.
It's janky, combat is weird and for some reason it reset my monitor back to 60hz.
Interesting idea. Bit of an RTS with roguelike elements. Had fun.
Run fast and hit the perfect slope like you used to back in the Tribes era. Fun little game.
Such an unique japanese twist on the tower defence genre. I really liked this one.
Great roguelite. Plays well, looks good and story is interesting enough for such a title.

Twilight Monk was a real surprise. I thought it was your typical Chinese platformer, but it turns out it's a western developed and feels more like a poorly localized game from the 90's where seemingly serious characters speak with surfer dude slang. But underneath is a pretty well made metroidvania with elements from Zelda 2.
It's based on setting with 5 novels created by Trent Kaniuga, a concept artist for a lot of games like Diablo 3, WoW and others. Dude was the writer for Final Fight: Streetwise... oh dear!
Kero Quest 64 is created by Mario 64 modders. It shows, the move sets and feeling is very similar. Great one.
Bullet Hell Shmup with a super stylized art direction. Not a fan of Bullet hell, but it felt good.
IoR intro looked like it was super chunky at first, but it actually runs on a Gameboy Color'esque resoltution and palette. There are plenty of those, but it was pretty good.
Decent platformer, the art is so so. The starting interface while clever is a crime against nature.
A precision platformer with floaty controls, the demo was way too unfinished to judge. Something about a frog dude followed by a big tiddy godess fixing the world.

Splitgate 2 - Wow this really caught me by surprise. I never played the original (didn't liked the look of it or the over reliance on the portal mechanics) but this was such a breath of fresh air in the arena shooter space. This is pretty much what I would have wanted from a Halo multiplayer game. It already has a ton of different modes, team sizes, weapons and abilities that will keep me satisfied for a long time. The portal mechanics are still something I can't quite get to grips with (and people using it to their advantage have a clear leg up obviously) but from the 4 hours or so that I've played I came away really impressed. It's also nice to load up a multiplayer game and it just works for once. The art, and the visuals themselves, are really striking and are a huge step up from the previous title. Performance wise things could be improved but it's already at a very decent level imo. Good stuff!
Emberward - Played about 3 battles (and lost) of this Roguelite Tower Defense-Em-Up to know that I will be all over this when it launches. I mean it's already 'out' but I got too many early access titles already to shake a stick at so I'll give this some more time in the oven and grab its 1.0 release. Very neat game.
Fretless The Wrath of Riffson - Another banger that was a complete unknown to me prior to the Next Fest. It's a turn-based Metal infused RPG that has an incredibly catchy soundtrack and a very robust upgrading & skills system. The battle music could come straight off an Andy McKee album. Definitely one that I'll be keeping an eye on. And that's coming from someone who usually does not really care for music or rhythm based games.
As We Descend - Nothing but winners with this section it seems. This is a Roguelike deckbuilder with strategy elements that, while not exactly intuitive from the getgo, instantly had its hooks in me with its unique artstyle and thick atmosphere. It comes out in three weeks and it's another title that I had never heard of before but has now shot up my wishlist. Very much recommended if you're into things like Darkest Dungeon or Slay the Spire.

Man I really enjoyed the demo, but the dev's twitter account stopped me from buying the game at release. They had a mental break about Valve refusing to give it a "sexual violence" tag. I know right? What financially interested developer WANTS the marketplace to give their product a tag that can only hurt sales? That's when I realized this person was a sick puppy. The recent jailing just confirmed it. Shame, because the demo had such potential.

Thanks for the recommendations in here! Snapped up a couple of demos that I'll check out later.
Imagine buying the game on sale and then over two weeks later they come out with that statement making you unable to get a refund.

This is probably my last batch of demos before the fest end. Added enough games to my wishlist again.
Ty based Gaben.
Never played the original but heard stories about it. Seems like a great remake so far.
Visuals are triple A quality and there were actual rude people.
Interested in the full release.
Heavily inspired by Metroid. Looks and plays well, but may not be delivering a completely original idea.
Never played a mech game before but had fun with this game. Reviews share some issues though.
Looked interesting but is janky as fuck. Maybe I'm retarded but I couldn't get out of the first area, had no clue what to do so just ALT F4'd out of there.
Visuals looked interesting on screenshots, during gameplay it feels a bit off.
It has potential if you're interested in more roguelites.
Gave me immediate Deus Ex vibes, not sure what was going on though.
I just ran around a bit and got out of there. My mind is not on ImSim mode right now.
A bit rough around the edges but reminded be of the good old RTS days.
Could be a great RTS.
Roguelite combines with MOBA controls, actually was pretty fun to play.
Great visuals, played well and has a lot of potential.
Great visuals in this metroidvania where you play a chad carrying a fucking pillar on his back.

Gothic 1- This was actually pretty good. Felt AA and janky but still a good game in there if you can look past that. Not sure ill be there Day 1 but if reviews are good and it goes on sale then yeah.
Roadcraft- aka Mudrunner 4. This is different but still a Mudrunner game. No unlocking vehicles, No Damage and No Gas to worry about. While that seems like they Arcade-ifed it too much I would argue no. For example in the previous games I would be in a sticky spot that I think I maybe able to work my way out of but would inevitably run out of gas. Here I had an epic revival when I flipped my truck in deep water but after almost 30 mins in the bulldozer I was able to flip the truck back upright, felt good man. Speaking of the bulldozer they way you can move around mud/sand is pretty cool. Liked the variety of vehicles, I think I used the winch 2 or 3 times in 12 hours while in the old games it was all winch all the time. Refreshing.
Delivered at all cost- Very cool Crazy Taxi like game.
Outlawed- Not my type of game but it was kinda cool when the server worked. Some basic AI on the map but some very creative mini Boss AIs. I shot at one dude dressed in purple, he charged me with an INSANE amount of constant purple smoke grenades like he was shrouded in it, it was cool.

This game has been on my wishlist since it was announced. The demo left me even more hyped. Is absolutely everything I imagined and more. The atmosphere is phenomenal.
