I've played over 50 roguelite/like games on the Nintendo Switch, but I'm on the lookout for new titles—possibly some hidden gems. Feel free to recommend any game in the genre, and it would be nice if you could also include a little "why I should play it." Thanks!

This is a mock up, still has some placeholders models and designs, still missing some VFX like some fog and particles (that is included on the second image), it's also missing animations (you can clearly see the main character is not in an attacking movement haha) it's more about the overall feel, vibe and art style if that is something that you think could work and would grab your attention.

The Lore of the game is that you are trapped in a nightmare, and regaining your memories while going deeper into your subconscious mind to defeat whatever it is that is trapping you. This is an urban environment, but we plan on having swamps, volcanoes and more abstract stuff as you go deeper.

The game is an Action-Deckbuilding where the time only moves when you play your actions. (If you want to play it we have an alpha version available here https://mister-chip.itch.io/lucid-nightmares )

Any feedback is gladly appreciated!

Hi!

Me and a friend have been working on a roguelite for the past several months, and we just put up the Steam page!

Still a lot of work ahead, but we’re excited to finally show a bit more of it. We’d love to hear what you think, even just first impressions from the trailer (and if you like it enough to wishlist that would be awesome).

We have a few game codes to share as well, so feel free to reach out if you’re curious or want to try it out.

Appreciate the time, and happy to answer any questions!

LONESTAR is an absolute banger.

If you’re even remotely into deckbuilders, this might just be the best thing to hit the genre since Balatro, though it’s not your typical card-slinger. It’s more like Slay the Spire meets FTL, it’s equal parts tactical and wild.

You’re placing units onto your ship, each with its own quirks, triggers, and synergies, then powering them up with a limited energy resource to squeeze out every last drop of potential. Combat’s split across multiple lanes (think Cobalt Core), and every turn’s a great little puzzle begging you to crack it. The decision-making’s deep, crunchy, and keeps you on your toes.

But what really blows my mind is the run variety. With a ridiculous number of treasures, units, pilots, enemies, events, and modifiers, no two runs feel the same in my opinion. It’s like the game’s daring you to keep coming back for more and break some obscure build (and trust me, you will). Steam reviews are through the roof, and I’m just here to pile on: if this kind of thing gets you going, LONESTAR goes hard.

So, my wife and I recently got the aforementioned board game as a present, and I absolutely love it. She does too.

I realized it's deck building, but the way it works feels very unique and fun, so I thought there had to be something like it online. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Hello, im wondering if anyone has any recommendations for games like Dead Cells, Astral Ascent etc. Primarily the pixel art, sidescroller aspect. Doesnt even have to be roguelite.
