Steam Next Fest is a week-long celebration featuring hundreds of FREE playable demos as well as developer livestreams and chats. Players try out upcoming games on Steam pre-release, developers gather feedback and build an audience ahead of their Steam launch, everyone wins!
I always enjoy checking out the demos from these events. Has anyone else tried any yet? Would love to hear about any fun demos you’ve found.
Not sure if there are any Girls’ Frontline fans here but RC is a turn based strategy (well, tactics) game set in the same universe.
Haven’t played much yet but it’s pretty fun so far - graphically looks like a mix of improved GFL and XCOM, gameplay is easy to grasp and looks like it might be a bit of a challenge when aiming for all bonus objectives on higher difficulties.
Also works perfectly with proton!
Now to test it with Deck…
Update on Deck:
Game runs pretty great, with two caveats:
UI during combat sections (mostly dialog) is a bit small
videos in tutorial prompts don’t show up at all
game defaulted to KB+M controls scheme, had to change to gamepad
No other issues so far, plays great with normal gamepad preset. Battery life is also rather nice (~4 hours in my case).

From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!
