Busy week, this one. We have had an entire load of video games introduced over the previous few days, and there’ll probably be an entire lot extra this weekend. Most of them we won’t play but. However as a common rule, speaking about video games makes us need to play video games, even when they’re fully unrelated. Everybody has these moments the place they see the trailer for a brand new multiplayer hero shooter or some such factor, and for causes solely identified to themselves, they are saying, “sure, I actually should play extra Simpsons: Hit And Run.” So: this is what we’re all clicking on this weekend!
Alice Bee
is away.

I am hoping to hop right into a recreation I can not speak about. It is troublesome not speaking about it, truthfully. In any other case, I am again watching Love Island aren’t I? Terrible, I do know (I like it).
Edwin
is away.
Graham
is away.
James
I unexpectedly needed to abort enjoying the Flock demo earlier this week, and now have unfinished chicken adoption enterprise.

I will be trying out some Steam Subsequent Fest demos that I did not have time to cowl for the location this weekend. Extra particularly, I am actually interested in Hollowbody, a PS2-esque survival horror expertise crafted primarily by one developer that places the participant within the sneakers of a fixer navigating the ruins of a near-future ruined British metropolis. I am keen on the look of it and the way if I squint I can vaguely think about that I am traversing down the shadowy corridors of my avenue, solely it is a model of my avenue infested with wriggly issues that need to kill me. Then there’s the 8-hour demo of Enotria: The Final Tune, my candy summer-themed Italian Soulslike that’s at risk of getting completely forgotten resulting from all the different Soulslikes popping out this yr. Edwin appreciated the demo nicely sufficient, however different impressions paint the sport as kinda janky. The sport’s Twitter account even takes nice pains to level out that it is an “AA” recreation moderately than an “AAA” one…which suggests it’s after all the precise form of underdog recreation I have to root for.

I’ve some massive initiatives developing, so I will in all probability play one thing comparatively chill this weekend. I could pattern just a few extra Demos from Steam Subsequent Fest or proceed with my A Little To The Left playthrough. A Little To The Left is an lovable puzzle recreation the place you assist organise muddle. Clearing away digital home goods is far more satisfying than truly cleansing your individual home. It did very well upon preliminary launch in 2022, however as is customary for me, I missed the boat on it on the time.

Very a lot a nibbles platter of video games this weekend. Felvidek with intention to hopefully write about it quickly – it jogs my memory of Concern and Starvation in loads of methods. Extra Doom Everlasting. Some Elden Ring. Possibly some Grindstone, which I’ve not too long ago gotten again into. Other than that, I am primarily simply going to be farting so much. I’ve had the eating regimen of a fussy toddler with an alcohol drawback for every week now, so I am planning to get very into inexperienced smoothies once more.
Ollie
Like others within the treehouse, I will be enjoying a top-secret recreation I can not speak a lot about. And oh boy, am I excited. So excited that I could need to periodically take breaks so as to play some Hades 2 to get well.
However you, reader pricey, what are you enjoying this weekend?
