      Thanks! Also on sale is my game with Mac Vogelsang, Sparrow Solitaire, for 30% off! This consistently rates in the top echelons on lists of rated Playdate games.

      It's like a Steam Sale of yore where everything is under $10! I don't think I'm going to last the week guys.

    I picked it up and played through some Pseudoregalia, it's really good, and a love letter to PSX graphics and Mario 64 Movements. It's pretty fun so far and feels really good to play.

    Humble Heroines bundle on Humble Bundle!

    I'll be honest, I didn't know/remember that the Metal: Hellsinger protag was female, it was a great game!! Probably the only game I played in the bundle, I know that Plague Take and Eastwards are both fantastic games though. Make sure you adjust the bundle price!

    It looks a lot like Hollow Knight, but honestly plays a lot more like Dead Cells!

    Dave the Diver for $12 and change:

    The core gameplay loop is very fun!

    Shadows of Doubt for $12 and change:

    EA released a couple of older games on Steam today: https://store.steampowered.com/app/24880/The_Saboteur/ The Saboteur I remember was such a cool concept as a kid, I never played it though.

      It's been a looooong time since I last played it, but I remember The Saboteur being really good. It's basically a mix of GTA, Far Cry, and Assassin's Creed but taking place in Nazi occupied Paris during WW2. And I also remember it looking amazing with its black & white + red/orange coloration for regions that you haven't liberated yet, which then fully colorize once you do.

      Apparently it's on EA Play too though, which is included with Xbox Gamepass, so I will probably download it whenever I resub to Gamepass again, to play it again to see if it lives up to my memories of it.

      Edit: Nevermind, turns out I actually already own it on EA Origin/Desktop. So I can play it again any time. :P

        I remember watching Jerma play a little bit of that game, I think. IIRC, driving your car even very slowly into one of the cows causes them to gib theatrically.

    Humble has a Leap Year celebration sale:
    https://www.humblebundle.com/store/promo/leap-year-celebration-sale/

    the under $5 sale seems pretty decent:

    FTL is a great game, a steal for under 5, also Lumines Remastered!!! what a trip down memory lane.
