- 📌I played over 50 demos from the "Steam Next Fest".
Discover exceptional demos that instantly grabbed my attention.
Other demos have good concepts but need further tweaking and icing.
I lost gameplay for a few games so I resorted to using trailers 😟.

Telmari's "unique mechanic" is in two games that instantly came to mind (Phoenotopia and Out of Line) and likely many more.
@@n1nj4l1nk Quite interesting. I looked into both and the inspiration is clearly there. Thanks for mentioning that.
@@ElieHaykal pronty is a game entirely built around it too.
I appreciate the time and effort put into this video and also added some games to my wishlist, thanks for making this! 🙂
I'm very happy you found value in this video ☺️
What an excellent video!
I also loved the Pepper Grinder demo, as well as Hauntii and Europa. Great looking games, and this video does them justice. Can't wait to see what you come out with next!
Thanks for commenting! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I fully agree, my only gripe was that I couldn't try Hauntii :(
I appreciate it your video, very Well made, keep up the good work ❤
Thank you for your stopping by 😊 and sharing your positive feedback! Much appreciated.
Thank you for including our game on your list😊
Thank you so much for stopping by! Keep rocking it with that artstyle :)
Thank you for these reviews
I'm glad you found value in them :)
I added some games to my wishlist after watching! I'd say the ones you missed are Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip, Normal Fishing, and Toree Saturn
I'll be checking them out. Thanks for sharing 👍
So looking into my large list of played demos, I noticed that I played Normal Fishing but had to cut down on the list due to how large it already was.
- Normal fishing was a treat to play with its Atari-like visuals and simple + addicting fishing mechanics. I did not expect boss fights :)
- Tiny Terry's Turbo: I did not make it in time to play it before the demo was removed :( but I heard great things about it.
- Toree Saturn: a small yet cool platformer with tons of potential. Instantly gave me Sonic vibes.
@@ElieHaykal did you beat the Normal Fishing demo?
@@drstclair I reached the crab boss if I recall properly and stopped. Was I still too far?
@ElieHaykal not far enough really. The hook of the game lies behind the nature of things. I don't think from what you have played so far, you truly know what is happening on the lake.
Very nice video and great job! There are so many interesting games with really cool features. I hope some day my own game will be on Steam fest too. My only thought now is 'How to compete with all those and even more good games?' 🙃
Thank you for your kind words :). The journey of game development is quite unique. I did experiment with a few game ideas myself a while ago. Keep up the great work and you'll get there. Are you going the solo path or do you have a small team?
@@ElieHaykal yeah, work hard and succeed. But competition gets tougher by each day, especially for single amateurs like me 😮💨😀
@@lowlowteam don't let that deter you, we all have to start somewhere, keep going🔥
@@ElieHaykal thank you for support! I wish you all the best too. 🤗
Great video! We have similar taste.
Thanks for dropping by 👍. Yes indeed
INDIKA, Hauntii, and Children of the Sun were absolutely amazing. Everything else in the Next Fest could have been lame, and it still would have been a great Next Fest for those three. It's a shame you weren't able to experience Hauntii for yourself.
Cannot agree more. Each of the mentioned games were unique with what they tried to deliver. I was quite disappointed when I couldn't try Hauntii no matter what I did. I'm sure the devs will resolve this later. Thanks for sharing your experience 👍
@6:20 Demo for Oddsparks is no more available. Devs says you would learn wrong things from the demo.
Thanks for the feedback. That is quite an interesting take from the devs. I wonder how much was changed after the demo was released.
You opinions don't match every other guy's who does indie videos. Keep it up.
Thank you for your feedback 👍. I try my best to report my emotions when playing any game. This is the beauty of gaming. What might connect with me might be terrible for others and vice versa.
I'm a little disapointed, not a single game with a sexy female protagonist. 😐
Thank you for linking steam games for easy access.
Thank you for your feedback. I hope you found a game you missed :)
@@ElieHaykal I did! More than one in fact. Thanks again. Keep it up.
