Scarlet Hollow is an award-winning gothic horror narrative adventure developed by Black Tabby Games (who also made Slay the Princess). Now it's better than ever with a soft relaunch with The Roads Untraveled update out now.

With a Steam image of a stupid smiley face that made me initially ignore it when seeing it (the kind I would expect from some basic cheapo game), R.E.P.O. is actually pretty darn amusing and it's rocketing up the charts on Steam.

Fallen Aces from Trey Powell, Jason Bond and New Blood Interactive looks awesome and now it should be even better. With the Wheels of Steel update there's been a few bits added, overhauled and now it's Steam Deck Verified too.

The open source and cross-platform evolution sim Thrive has added in some even more advanced gameplay elements, making it a whole lot more interesting to attempt survival.

Due Process from developer Giant Enemy Crab uses Easy Anti-Cheat that previously blocked Linux (and so Steam Deck too), but they've now enabled Linux players to jump in.

The update simply called "Content" brings a whole lot of extras to Lucky Tower Ultimate, my current favourite dungeon crawler that keeps on making me laugh.

It's been a little bit over a year now since Palworld arrived in Early Access, with developer Pocketpair announcing how well it's done along with another patch out now.

Easily one of the best narrative adventure visual novels on PC, Scarlet Hollow is getting a big juicy update in March that's basically a "soft relaunch" of the game. From Black Tabby Games, they also made the very popular Slay the Princess.

Become a sentient AI in Heart of the Machine, the latest deep strategy game from Arcen Games (AI War 1/2, The Last Federation, Bionic Dues) and it's now in Early Access.

Even though Early Access can be an incredible thing to allow developers to build up their game with the community, and pull in some early funds, it can also go very wrong. And now Valve are making it a bit clearer for you if a game hasn't been updated.

Bugbear and THQ Nordic have announced that the chaotic racer Wreckfest 2 is set for an Early Access release on March 20th.

With a voice cast that reunites multiple people from Metal Gear Solid, SteamDolls - Order Of Chaos is set to arrive in Early Access on February 11.

The Spell Brigade is a popular survivor-like with online co-op for up to 4 players, it's sold well and the developers continue making big improvements to it.

We're likely to continue seeing more developers try mixing up classic games like Balatro did with Poker, and now we have Aotenjo: Infinite Hands aiming to do similar for Mahjong.
