This Completely Free Half-Hour Platformer Will Scratch Your Celeste Itch
10.9.2024
Gaming tags on Steam are used with wild abandon, to the degree that they’re fairly useless. “Point-and-click” has been reduced to any game with a cursor, and “action” appears to mean any game where you move. In general, rather than draw you toward a game, their main use is to warn you off one....
