Pizza Fria
Another excellent SteamWorld adventure
Strategic battles with the player agency: aiming, calculating, shooting!
Beautiful iconic visuals and excellent soundtrack.
More than 20 hours of gameplay; over 30 to complete everything!
Completely and very well translated into Brazilian Portuguese.

The ocean is an improvement over constellations, but it has unintuitive navigation.

Fantastic ambience and aesthetic. Straightforward gameplay with plenty of depth. Awesome buildcrafting.
Controls can be a bit clunky. Exploration is in dire need of a minimap.
