FLY2K is a skill based butterfly flying simulator with simple but challenging controls. Its inspired by early VR and 2000s era games with chonky polygons and a Dreamcast era jungle beat. Sound on!

Wishlist it on Steam 💕

In the end, the best way to sell my video game is to show "what you can do in this game" without saying a lot of words. I should just share multiple gameplay footages and hope it sticks with random somebody. #MagentaHorizon #indiegames #actiongame

Came here to recommend these!
Tekkonkinkreet is borderline scifi, so not sure but have a look if you havent seen it.
Lastly, off the top of my head, Versus by Ryuhei Kitamura is a wild B movie style romp, not so much immaculate vibes but somehow the campness kind of transcends itself

I found out that I've been laid off from where I was working. I'm not taking that well.

What time I had I was trying to put into making games, and
that's really all I've ever wanted to do.

So, if you want to help me do that by supporting me, it would mean the world <3
