dreams with a feel similar to dear esther dreamcast us into a nonlinear 3d environment with multiple possible game endings and each act we find ourselves exploring our characters dreams nightmares and attempting to solve puzzles and unveil secrets to progress through this story driven adventure in slot number six we have dungeon dashers which is a fast-paced cooperative dungeon crawling game based in of course dungeons this turn-based dungeon delving game has quote handcrafted dungeon experiences each riddled with traps and varied monster configurations the game features a completely original chiptune soundtrack retro pixel art a crafting system and a huge focus on epic loot as is important in these types of games the game has online co-op and single player and focuses on a party of four characters each of the classic class archetypes routine makes slot number 5 this survival horror game places players in an open world styled abandoned space station or as open as a space station gets I suppose and is centered around floppy disks actually it's a heavy story focus that provides multiple outcomes and intriguing secrets behind these stations decay routines gameplay and notable mechanics are its full body awareness lack of HUD and health system and pressure to hide and survive its trailer feels like a mix of amnesia dead space and the 80s version of our future number for this week is Inquisitor a baldur's gate esque classic RPG that reports over 100 hours of gameplay 90 monsters a hundred and eighty NPCs and quite unbelievably 5,000 pages of text that is around according to the developers 1.5 million words which is quite a few words if you were not aware and in this game the world crumbles as heretics run rampant chanting infernal incantations and bringing death upon the town's folk is your team's job to interrogate these heretics find out what's behind the rising of all these demons and when necessary kill them changing pace from the dark confines of Inquisitor we look to octodad the deadliest catch the first octodad received at worldwide renowned in the indie scene for a silly story and fluid mechanics but the eight-legged father masquerading as a human has returned in the deadliest catch you work desperately to conceal your tentacles as a family trip to the aquarium turns fishy and you find yourself longing for a life at sea the third person mechanics are centered around subterfuge and destruction with a hint of fatherhood simulation thrown in as the developers have told us you must work to conceal your true identity from your family as you struggle to pick up objects and travel to apparently this aquarium project zomboid is next and it is already available through the developer but is seeking to come to steam the devs put it best project zomboid is an open-ended zombie-infested sandbox as they say and it is not a matter of how you'll survive but rather how you'll inevitably die yes they have that much faith in us lay defenses collect essentials and fight off hordes of zombies as you battle through this isometric survival game and the world is a reportedly an ever-expanding sandbox and laced with stories and other elements of survival play providing a bit of something for everyone and almost feeling like the original fallout from my own experiences in this game Black Mesa takes number one this week years in development and just as many years of seclusion Black Mesa has finally come to a point of playability to the public this reconstruction of the original half-life has us playing through the Black Mesa research facility where the original game has been expanded to include deeper mechanical interaction and a completely restructured story around what the modders have envisioned half-life should have felt like this source mod has broken completely into the category of full game with its new music dialogue voice acting thousands of new models and visual effects and many more features Black Mesa will be available for free starting on sep tember 14th provided you have the source engine down downloaded but it needs your vote to make it the steam so with that go vote for all the games that you want to see make it to steam and that's it for this week's episode of green light spotlight comment below and vote for games you want to see featured in next week's episode I'm open to any comments you have
