Of life and Land has been in Early Access for just over a year now, and it's about to cross over the finishing line as Metaroot and Kerzoven have announced the 1.0 launch for May 16th.

Tempopo is the latest release from Australian developer Witch Beam, the creators of Unpacking and Assault Android Cactus.

With the hashtag that is actually part of the name, #DRIVE Rally has properly launched out of Early Access with the 1.0 release now available. It arrives with Native Linux support and it's Steam Deck Verified.

Now this blending of ideas looks damn cool. Moonsigil Atlas looks like it really warps deckbuilders into something quite unique, and I can't wait to check this one out.

Pas Game Studio recently revealed the freaky looking Horripilant. A game that combines elements of an idler, puzzle and autobattler that sees you fight, mine, and think your way through the depths of a forsaken dungeon.

Whatever will developers turn into a deck-builder next? Ludo, apparently. The classic board game has been warped into Ludaro.

Real time chaotic strategy simplified to make it work well on a gamepad? With single-player, versus and co-op modes? D.O.T. Defence is out in Early Access with Native Linux support made with Godot.

Aquapark Tycoon from Boxelware, who previously made the space sim Avorion, is an upcoming water theme park building game and a new trailer is out now.

Bosorka is an action roguelike where a young witch saves the world from insidious and cruel demons. To celebrate the first anniversary, the developer has released a Native Linux version.

Memory's Reach is a very promising looking first-person puzzle-adventure metroidvania, and the good news is that it will have Steam Deck support at launch.

With the latest update out today, Blood West from Hyperstrange and New Blood Interactive is now Steam Deck Verified and well worth a look.

If you don't hear from me much over this week (or for the rest of this month), it's because I'm dedicating my time to playing GNOMES. A new tower defense roguelike hybrid from developer DYSTOPIAN with ever-expanding biomes to battle through.

With an interface that looks rather inspired by Balatro in many parts, RNG JAM from bryanthaboi will bring arcade styled basketball with roguelite chaos.

Clonizer is a fresh tactical roguelike deck-builder about making and managing clones, and attempting to colonize and take over the universe. It's just launched with Native Linux support.

With Native Linux support and Steam Deck Verified, Dungeons & Degenerate Gamblers is another good pick if you like something a bit different. The latest update also make it a lot easier to sit back and chill with.

War for the Overworld from Brightrock Games just recently hit the 10 year anniversary, and so to celebrate the developers released a brand new update to their classic Dungeon Keeper-like.

Necesse is a wonderful mixture of base / village building, exploration, adventure and survival with support for solo and co-op play. They've teased the 1.0 update is due out this year, along with The Forgotten Depths update out now.

Spin Rhythm XD is a homage to classic arcade rhythm games (Guitar Hero, DDR), with a modern aesthetic and soundtrack. Earlier in April they also put up an official Native Linux version with Steam Deck support.

With funding from Outersloth, the publishing arm of the Among Us developer Innersloth, Neverway is a new reveal from Coldblood Inc. A horror RPG that blends action and life sim elements and there's plenty of names involved in this one that you might recognise.

Schedule I is high up on my wishlist to eventually play-through, thankfully being in Early Access I've got plenty of time to get to it and it's only going to get better with full Steam Deck support planned.
