Space Rock Breaker

An enjoyable gameplay loop rotating between: • Timed auto-shooter that pressures you to make timely decisions • Cute plinko minigame to multiply your rewards • Massive skill tree that turns the shooter portion on its head multiple times throughout the game There's a prestige system that influences gameplay but is not necessary to progress. I only used it maybe three times before completing the game. However there is no limit on some prestige skills which allows a postgame that infinitely scales. Easy and fun game about numbers going up. High recommend and doubly so for Steam Deck

A bit slow in the beginning, a bit of bullet heaven towards the end. Requires very little brain activity, perfect for having something to do while glancing at youtube on the other screen or whatever. Only negative is I wish it was just a bit longer. I like short games, but it felt like the good part had only just begun. Seems like I can keep playing it endlessly with some unlimited (?) upgrades, but with nothing left to unlock and all achievements done I don't feel inclined to. Still, for the price, I'm happy. I did have one minor bug in the beginning; UI for fuel and quota and stuff didn't show up at all. The second time I started the game they were there though, no issues since. Might be just having restarted fixed it, or maybe something clicked into place because I had changed the graphics settings (changed resolution and switched to fullscreen mode).
