Steam will open up the pit on October 9 for the Punk Games Showcase, alongside a new edition of the Hardcore Punk Jam on itch at the same time. I got an early look at the loaded lineup and spoke to the organizer, @bradmakesgames.bsky.social.

Games with no tutorials and no handholding are only praised by people who had the time to sit with them for 5 hours. That's not a universal design virtue, that's a privilege statement.

the thing about STREET UNi X that i'm most proud of is that people just generally think it's fun to play. It doesn't have any groundbreaking mysteries, it's not a huge budget game, and it's a niche sport represented in a niche game genre and still, people love it because it FEELS good to play
