🤯 I just (re?)learned that the current Steam-purchasable #DwarfFortress is published by Kitfox Games, who made a game that I found absolutely captivating, "Lucifer Within Us". It has a very cool timeline-scrubbing mechanic for investigating mysteries, and it got weirder than I expected towards the end.
https://www.kitfoxgames.com/lucifer-within-us/
IIRC, the ending felt a bit sudden, but I wanted a follow-up very badly. 😂 I streamed the first couple hours of it many moons ago: https://irrsinn.video/w/myF9P9dFya7az5rPQFgtD7
Dat Lucifer Within Us - 2021/05/14
This was a super fun and unique game! I didn't finish it on stream, but trust me when I say this game goes very weird at the end. I want more in this universe, and I want more of the cool mechanic ...Good Vibeos

Is corru.observer a widely known browser game? I played it last Thanksgiving week while I was meeting my grandfather for only the second time in my long-ass life and my grandmother for the first time in ~25 years. It was a weird trip that was perfect for late nights of playing a trippy game.
I think about it just about weekly, despite not having played it since. With #cohost dying, I'm sad I won't get my occasional dose of news and fanart there. Will I resurrect a tumblr account for following fanart? Quite possibly. 😣
Anyway, if you can handle the intensity of the visuals, it's a great game: https://corru.observer/
(Maybe it is well known. RPS did a piece on it: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/this-amazing-surprising-browser-game-shows-the-internet-can-still-be-magical)
