Is this a metaphor I do not understand? Seems like you might have accidentally posted in the wrong community if not.

Was pretty fun for me, cute and short. Always happy to see Fediverse devs posting on Lemmy!

Oh hey, nice to find you on a different corner of Lemmy! Thanks for the in-depth review, we need more OC on Lemmy like this. I’ll probably check it out because of you.

Might want to crosspost to !puzzlegames@lemm.ee and the much more active !adventuregames@lemm.ee which has also decided to include puzzle games, despite its name.

Something about it seems just so weirdly self-promotional, instead of “normal” engagement with the community. I never pay attention to usernames but I have noticed this kind of content from the guy on this community several times, and just checked his posts and it’s all YouTube promotion (although I admit the ones mentioning “Dani” might not be his, not 100% sure). No regular engagement with the community as just another gamer. I suspect that’s why the community does not seem to generally like these posts. It is why I certainly don’t. The vibes I get from the posts are way less “hey I am a game dev, I’d love some feedback on my game!” and more “SMASH that subscribe button” but from an English language learner who has not learned the tricks of clickbait titles and the ways people grow those channels, so instead we get these constant posts for their YouTube on Lemmy. Of course, my judgment could be off, I’m certainly not actually clicking the videos to confirm whether my suspicions are right or wrong. For all I know that video has a misleading title and is a tutorial on how to paint a ceiling.

However, it is on topic and I don’t make the rules, and there’s something to be said for unpopular stuff still being allowed. I’d personally want this gone as the self-promotion type of spam but hey, not my community, and I could have judged them wrong.

I had no idea we did that! This link should let you open it.

I guess there are two ways to play Tiny Garden: You can go into it and try to make the most beautiful garden with the items that unlock for you. This will give you many hours of laid-back gardening fun.

You can approach this game by planting your garden strategically, trying to unlock the next plant and find the new combination that adds new kinds of goals. I am firmly in the last category and truly love it.

The reviewer is just like me and I’m so here for that. The fact you garden in some bauble and get letters from its previous owners that form the narrative… also sounds interesting. Gardening is super not my thing but the game sounds cool enough to make me check it out anyways.

Thank you! Now that I think of it I probably should have just said “I can’t see the image” instead of uploading an image of the “can’t see image” icon…

Thanks!

Interestingly enough, raw lemmy.zip in browser, no apps. However if I open this post on ani.social I can see the image. Regrettably, I didn’t remember that as a solution to my problem until just now. (Also, hi, fellow ani.social user, this is just my .zip alt!)

I uploaded an image of the default Lemmy image that shows up when you cannot see an image.

very Abigail-core

(people who have an image, what am I missing out on?)

playing an instrument in real life Trombone Champ? Linked you to their site because they have a lot of links for different platforms. Not sure how much of a game Synthesia is meant to be vs a piano tutorial (I will give them that their URL is synthesiagame) but figured I ought to give that a mention too. Rhythm Hell is short but free for PC, and got picked up a lot by the YouTube algorithm if you watched a lot of music stuff aimed at a musician audience.

Not a rhythm game person at all despite being a musician, but some come to my attention anyways and if they do, I don’t mind trying to help small niche communities on Lemmy. Thanks for running this community and trying your best, I am in a similar position with !otomegames@ani.social and !automationgames@lemmy.zip. I am not an expert for any genre I mod, but hey, someone has to do it. I’d gladly cede power to an expert, but they are not here yet, so I’ll do for now.

I did enjoy Symphonica for iOS, mostly rhythm game with visual novel-style interludes but they took it off the App Store. There is a YouTube channel surrounding trying to preserve it.

Probably would have tried to romance Demetrius if he was a single option, but I would not want to break up his happy relationship with Robin.

I have not played this game but someone at !tycoon@lemmy.world might be able to help you.

look what you made me do

you made me seek out transport fever 2 on steam, post about it in !tycoon@lemmy.world, and buy it

I really like !infinitynikki@discuss.tchncs.de, which is available on Android and has controller support. High quality open world game with platforming aimed at women, and I’m really not used to seeing “high quality” and “aimed at women” together in gaming spaces as a woman who played a lot of low-quality girly games on the Nintendo DS back in the day. Warning that it is a gacha game. You can progress without being pressured to spend money, I certainly did not feel pressured to spend and still cleared endgame content, but you can spend money to speed up time-gated things and, of course, for pulls for outfits (it is a dress-up game). So if she is susceptible to those monetization strategies or morally opposed, no go.

I wish I had more recommendations but I am neither an Android user nor a controller user, so this is the only one I know that hits both requirements. I can look at the Google Play store but I have no idea how to tell from there if a game has controller support or not.

I’m so confused. The takeaway I’m getting here is “Transport Fever 2 has no relevance to the comment I made”

Adding environmental concerns to city building, stuff like animals and plants also having needs that you can try to take care of, is usually something that will fascinate me and get me to click. Steam reviews seem positive, hope this goes well!
