Let's Play Interest Check Poll

Every now and then I put up a less formal, unscheduled bonus vote, and now feels like a good time. I put a lot of time into making a VN, and then the video about it, getting through the holidays, traveling to cons and to Canada, getting sick, attending funerals, etc. Taking a moment to focus on my gaming channel, I reassessed what kind of games I should be looking into next, and OH MY GOD I AM SO BEHIND ON INDIE GAMES!

Like, seriously, calm down games industry. How am I supposed to even begin to chip away at this pile. We've got sequels to previous games I've covered in the past, follow-ups from long-dormant studios, furries making something other than visual novels, and just a whole lot of quirky and experimental and interesting-looking projects.

So, yeah, take a look. You'll probably learn about some new games yourself. I've included the summary of each game from Steam, a screenshot, and a trailer. At the bottom of this post there will be a poll where you can select multiple games. Let me know what you'd like to see popping up on the Let's Play Supporter tier next after Threefold Recital, and eventually, the public channel.
