April’s Stats
aka. Month of the doomed backlog
Hello there fellow assassins! I hope you’re all doing great and that the past month has been nice to you. Here April has come and gone and with it, as every year, a batch of birthday gifts hit my backlog. Added to that it was also a busy month for review keys so the failure to maintain the balance was unavoidable. That being said, I played some great games, had a lot of fun and I hope it was the same for you all. On an unrelated note, if you liked the first Coffee Talk, do yourself a favor and go grab yourself Coffee Talk 2 (or play it on the gamepass).

Congratulations on all of your assassinations! And the Backlog of doom strikes again. You got this! I played a bit of Potionomics but turns out, I’m actually terrible at time management so I didn’t have a lot of fun. I hope you like it way more than I did!
Thank you! I’m looking forwards to play Potionomics even tho both yours and franplants comments are worrying me a little :)
Happy bday / congrats on your steam deck! (Assuming you have it now since you played Desk Job haha)
I usually only get 1 or 2 games gifted to me for my birthday, but that’s ok since my backlog will take multiple lifetimes to finish anyway lmao. I’m a little surprised to see Mail Time is quite short! Also I forgot to buy Webbed before the sale ended ;( I’m interested in Potionomics, but from what I’ve read it can actually become a quite intense economic management sim, so I’m a little intimidated!
Thank you! I had the deck last month already (got it during the sale) but hadn’t played much on it til I replaced the ssd and started tweaking stuff :3
Mail Time is sadly not just short but also still quite bugged, which is sad because I really wanted to like it :/ The dev seems to be trying to fix issues tho, but she’s all alone working on it so it might take a while for it to be a recommend. I’d say wait for a sale.
I’ll let you know for Potionomics how it goes when I play it :)
I’m not too surprised to hear that about Mail Time, when I played the demo it made the fan on my laptop run super loud - and while obviously “poorly optimized” and “buggy” are not the same, I feel they often go hand-in-hand haha. I’m content to patiently wait for some improvements, since as you said, it’s a solo dev :-) (which always impresses me to no end!)
Oh yeah, that’s not solved on the full game version. Even with my FPS capped via the Nvidia panel it was still making the fan go very loud on my laptop :/ But definitely keep an eye on it ;)
