Dinocop just came out, it's not a time loop but there is a daily schedule for all characters. It's also a poltical satire. store.steampowered.com/app/3187010/...

Going through all the credits on Mobygames, all of them remained with Konami. From what I heard it was made after Treasure split off from Konami and it and Rocket Knight Adventures were games Konami made to show it didn't need those Treasure guys.

The ongoing inbreeding of AI models is why I'm not too worried about AI image generation displacing everything. That stuff is decaying with every "upgrade"

Lots of odd looking games in that Tokyo Game Dungeon sale that's linked from there too. Bit Oz is neither new nor discounted but looks like a deckbuilding ball x pit?

And of course if Patrick hasn't played Exit 8, that's definitely one to try. They're even making a movie out of it.

Good to hear, it sure took them a LOT of attempts to make a successor to Burnout, akin to how many failed attempts at a successor to Jagged Alliance 2 there were.
