About RETURN Machine.Love()

3 different Robot-romance stories. Written, drawn, and made by humans, for humans. Since the very moment the first mechanical mind became aware of itself, it craved love. No one truly understand why the heart made of copper and wires started beating, but it did. Even after we were gone.

I'm normally biased against robot romance, but this was a nice change from what I've seen before. Kind of wish the three stories were a bit longer though.

A fun. short, free game.

So ... this is a visual novel with a unique interaface that hosts three stories. Wish there were more, or longer stories beyond this free episode. Now, this doesn't have anything to do with anything, but regarding economy, I wonder how the author manages to pay to keep a free visual novel from a niche game jam listed on the store, when it's the only thing they have, so no money coming from other sales (I guses we can ahve more than editor page on Steam). Wonder if it is something that happens often on Steam...and how I can be part of it later somehow.

An interesting series of 3 visual novels that feature robot self awareness and show ways they could develop emotional attachments to other beings. The music is quite nice and the visuals are well done. The stories follow each other chronologically, but are separated by a large stretch of time so that the characters in each are unique.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
