If you enjoy rhythm games, Melatonin is worth looking into. It’s like Rhythm Heaven but with a lo-fi, mellow feel. What makes me want to recommend it here specifically is that the game has a custom display setting calibrated for the Steam Deck’s screen which I thought was really cool!

The game itself isn’t that long and can be beaten in a couple of hours but there are of course harder difficulties and perfect scores to aim for which add some replay value. I personally really enjoy the soundtrack which helps too since it does feel a bit too short otherwise.

If you enjoy the aesthetic, but struggle with rhythm, the game also has accessibility modes that help you to get better with the timing instead of just skipping the level entirely.

    I do not. In fact I’ve been too embarrassed to reply to this comment for 2 days because the truth is I’ve not had as much time for gaming as I used to, am getting old, and I’m basically entirely out of the loop.

    But then I remembered this isn’t Reddit and I probably won’t get attacked for admitting it, so here we are! This is part of why I’m really looking forward to our trip in a few weeks. No internet connection, just some stuff I download in advance, it’ll be really nice to catch up on some things I’ve missed!

    Also I’ve just stumbled across [email protected] (Lemmy / Kbin) which looks decently active and is going to do real damage to my wallet, worth a look if you’ve not seen it yet 🙂
