Mine is the Army Men series. Objectively mediocre games at best but the concept of toy soldiers fighting over our yards and rooms has always been cool to me

    Creeper World. It’s like an RTS/TD type game that uses fluid dynamics that is always fun to go back to. The campaign writing and UI are just terrible but the gameplay is great and there are plenty of good community made maps to try.

      I second creeper World. awful title for a game, but I’ve played the shit out of all of them. I got hooked on the old Kongregate flash version of the original.

      This game series is the best. Somebody suggested the 3rd one to me when I was looking for a game which simulated the feeling of moving across the map with a seige tank line in StarCraft. It was perfect. The move th 3d in the 4th one worked very well too. Excited for the wide scrolling looking one they have coming out next too

      Oh god the music loops forever and gets stuck in your brain. I haven’t played the 4th game in a couple of years and the score is still regularly stuck in my head.

      Their space version of the game, Particle Fleet Emergence, is my most played game in my Steam library.

      I wish more people knew about these games!

        Is Particle Fleet similar? I love the Creeper World games but I was always hesitant to drop the cash for Particle Fleet because I just wasn’t sure.
