Steam Next Fest Finale; Last Chance to Check Out 'Pseudo-E3' Games

We are coming to the end of another edition of the Steam Next Festival, a virtual event whose biggest attraction are hundreds of demos of upcoming games. This is one of the many events that helped fill the void after the cancelled E3. You have very little time to download demos - the event ends tomorrow. That's also when the discounts will expire, so it's worth looking through the list of demos on Steam and play the ones that interest you.

Recommended demos

So many developers decided to provide demos during the Festival that choosing the ones worth checking out is not easy. You can always trust the crowds of players who appreciated, for example, Terra Nil, making it one of the most popular demos on Steam.

1. Terra Nil Demo Went From Zero to Hero on Steam

I, on my part, would like to recommend you the following demos:

1. Agent 64: Spies Never Die - spiritual heir to GoldenEye 007 with highly unusual targeting mechanics for a PC game.
2. Conscript - survival horror set in the trenches of World War I.
3. Nine Sols - beautiful 2D platformer by the authors of Detention, with a combat system modeled on Sekiro.
4. Selaco - retro-FPS with beautiful visuals and incredibly fun gameplay. Games of this type, which refer to the shooter traditions of the 90s, are sometimes called "boomer shooters" and in this category Selaco leaves all competition in the dust.
5. Old Skies - time travel adventure game from the creators of the Blackwell series and the excellent Unavowed. Among the traditional representatives of this genre, with its point-n-click interface, there is probably no more promising upcoming project.
6. There Is No Light - a pixel-art post-apocalyptic 2D action game which takes us to a world overrun by demons.
7. Trepang2 - spiritual heir to F.E.A.R. I've been following the project for years and played all demo versions. The newest one offers another big leap in quality and comes very close to the original.
