I not only tried to find good games on steam but hidden gems that provide some kind of fun. Whether it be a master piece, a good laugh or something that has some potential.
Worst Game On Steam was a side series while working on What Went Wrong videos. I've always had nostalgia for some of the weirdest games. Many of the so called "Worst Game On Steam" videos featured games that I would consider hidden gems for all the wrong reasons. Some are the definition of it's so bad it's good.
But I've also found some amazingly underrated games that deserve some show and tell. So now, the goal is simple, I'm trying to find Good Games On Steam. - Ігри
Wow! Thanks for taking the time to review my game 9 Days! It means a lot and so helpful to see where i can improve the game!
The movement actually looks fun and the scale of everything is pretty cool. Keep it up!
Not gonna lie, your game is kinda hype. Put some polish on that, I could see it doing really well sometime down the line.
The industry needs more creative games like this. It was bizarre in all the best ways.
i saw some of your clips on tiktok back in the day i hope you keep working on it.
I'm honestly in love with the concept. You're execution is a bit rough around the edges, but it has ALOT of potential.
I'm gonna guess Barbotine is about social anxiety and self worth? The MC becomes more and more deformed-- how they feel about themselves, ugly and disgusting, while the enemies are made of flowers and marble-- things people consider beautiful. Every time they look into the mirror they feel even worse about themselves which leads to them digging.
I feel like it could be the MC's ties to other people being broken and letting their negative feelings take over; digging themselves deeper into a a metaphorical hole of misery.
Alternatively you could also see it with a more positive ending-- that them breaking the flower-marble people and the mirror is them giving up society's expectations of beauty and they're breaking the cycle of self-hatred.
idk though lol
I think you’re spot on there
Seems inspired by Presentable Liberty, like it's trying to become the spiritual successor of Robert Brock's work
now to wait for pyrocynical to make a 1 - 2 hour video on this game for his main channel
I thought the guy was turning into a potato and burying himself. I think your idea is better
I like your interpretation@@Some0ne1shere
_"The Starwars™ asset is flying away."_
Lol 😂
"They use strong spaceship to go to space."
They fly now?
That 9 Days game has a hidden Super Saiyan form you can get if you absorb the Blue Sun in the Black Hole.
It makes you able to absolutely fucking demolish the home planet and once you beat the game you can go to the other Earth-like planet.
It has a lot of potential but definitely needed more time cooking and the dev is actually working on it.
dude yea its actually epic as fuck if only it was more polished
The dev needs a bit more experience and some budget. Does know how to deliver on an experience, though.
It's a garbage game with a garbage story with garbage DB assets with garbage asset skins slapped on.
It's okay buddy, we all think you're cool.
@@A_Stereotypical_Guy
Edit: Your username fits lol.
@@ectothermic thanks! I thought I was being pretty cool personally
unironically 9 days has better space exploration than starfield
thats not saying a lot sadly
me imagining cool places on my head is more immersive than Starfield
I was thinking the same thing on the moon base when he said he’d seen it before like “what does that remind me of?” But in 9 Days you can manually land on a planet instead of going into a menu.
agreed
That bar is so low it's in hell
9 Days looks like a retelling of Genesis with an extra weekend - 7 days for God to create everything, an extra 2 days to get ripped and go surfing
I was thinking an extra 2 days to tear it all apart again
2:14: "it's low poly, there's nother here that can scare me"
0:43: *jumpscared by a drunk chick standing behind him*
That 9 days game looked pretty interesting, obviously not in a 'gameplay' sense but the ideas that the game tried to include as 'features' was pretty good. Can't say I know of many games where you start out in a dungeon crawler type game and end up being able to fly through space and blow up planets in game. Fun video but sucks that most of them were broken more so than had any good qualities.
The potential for 9 days is insane. Imagine if the idea had been picked up by a proper game studio with proper funding. If those ideas where fully realized to their true potential, it could deadass be one of the best games ever. Like, imagine dark souls, but you literally turn into god in the end and destroy entire planets.
For real though. It's one thing for a game to have dramatic stat scaling, but like, it's absolutely fuckin rare for a game to let you go from simple fighter to overpowered deity. I very much love the sorts of games that actually make it "feel" like you're getting more powerful, instead of just having higher stat numbers.@@qwertydavid8070
Damns, 9 days should be polished and made to be a god sandbox with occasional powerful enemies. I would love to have the game.like that
I concur :)
The PS1 survived the entire first game. We can count our blessings on that, if nothing else.
Lol. Just get PC.
Mhhh something something symbolism, I'm sure we'll know when the 3 hour video essays drop.
It's a good game seen ppl play it this week
Nah, fuck PC. They are the anarchists of online gaming.@@marceelino
Yes but the original playstation was a tank. You could drop that out of the car on the highway and it'd be fine.
*Wizard, in relation to psychological horror game:* "it's just low poly, there's nothing to it"
i have never heard such a lie before. and almost immediately after, he eats his words xD
for the first game, i like how they somewhat accurately got the float point jitter down on the PS1 style graphics. They just needed to add it to everything instead of just the models.
It's added to the level geometry later for the scary effect, I think that's why it isn't there from the start
@@iwontbeforgotten youre right. i didn't notice it on the initial watch. :D
@@TheRumpletiltskinwhat do you mean by float point jitter? What points are floating? 🌈
@@robertschnobert9090it's what made ps1 games all wobbly lol
you can get the effect if you get far enough out of bounds even in most modern games, as going further away from the starting point of a level makes the floating point values less accurate
@@robertschnobert9090 IIRC the OG playstation couldn't handle float points, so instead it got truncated to the closest whole number, which caused textures to jitter around on the screen.
Barbotine having that reflection attempt is better than most triple A titles who don't attempt a reflection at all. It was actually a pretty nice animation used at a reflection
I concur.
Older games actually did reflections by literally mirroring the entire room, putting it behind the mirror, and spawning in a clone of the player with reversed inputs. Modern AAA titles can't even be bothered to put in any effort.
oh yes looks so much better than the triple As 😂😂😂
@@dianaberlin4767 _womp womp_
It kind of added a creepy effect. Is it your reflection? Is it something in the mirror looking at you?
28:05 when main character becomes so op, that he banishes the player from controlling him...
That quality voice acting in Cuba 2077
Compared to Ai, it's 💯%
happy you're getting back into making content again. You yourself are one of the hidden gems on UA-cam.
"Hidden gem." He has like 400k subscribers on his other channel, but I guess this channel is less unknown. I really have no idea what one is the first channel and what the second one is. I feel hidden gem is more apt for UA-camrs that hate less than 125k.
@CH I don't think Wiz hates his subscribers, or the games he plays. Get real.
@@favoritemustard3542 Dude does your head work properly ? Explain to me how my comment says what you are thinking cause you are in crazy world my dude. Get back on the meds, or off them whatever is causing you to not live in reality.
@@favoritemustard3542 Looks like a typo - *have
38:45 "these cars are so small" meanwhile car is floating half a metre in the air
The creator of Barbotine might have a new game coming, called Aftershock: Coastline. Might be something worth checking into.
Gotta give it a look
The wizard overcoming his greatest fear, entering a black hole, for science. Hes got balls of magic
9 Days is sick af lol. I always had the idea to make a game like that but I knew it would take more than 1 guy and a few asset packs to make it a reality... Apparently the dev of that game didn't lol still really cool tho
I think I like this format better than the other one. Finding nonsensical garbage slop seems to be easy, but finding niche, obscure, completely unheard of little gems has a much more positive vibe to it
It's the same video and the same bad games, he just says different things. I hate it
@@dianaberlin4767lol bro do you have a life, you’re malding all over the comment section💀 keep responding though, increase the engagement
@@dianaberlin4767It's the same person giving their opinions on the same products, but with different search criteria - it'd be weirder if it was vastly different!
I understand if you don't like something, but just saying so without context isn't going to achieve anything beyond boosting engagement and encouraging people like us to reply to you, further boosting engagement for Wiz. So, yay?
I'd feel differently if you were giving constructive criticism & specific issues that you might have, in which case a full-on discussion could be both fun and useful, but we can't do a whole lot with "I don't like the old format for unspecified reasons & this new style is too similar for me to enjoy. Kthx bye."
This video is literally the same nonsensical garbage slop besides the first one.....
The first game was pretty cool though, what are ya smoking? Besides, ain't it a good thing to actually try 'n be positive, pointing out the actually cool things about amateur passion projects instead of shitting on projects for the fun of it?
Cause I mean, better to inspire creativity than to try and stamp it out while shouting "you're not making it good enough!"@@thwomp1542
The way Barbotine faded in a model when walking up to mirrors was really neat.
9days is really interesting. The game seems batshit crazy and clearly it has tons of ambition with a very limited and janky Dev working on it.
That being said full props on the guy actually going through the game in full. I really thought it was a scam game when you started it but it clearly isn't, very nice.
Also barbotine was great.
I absolutely burst into laughter hearing the voice acting in Cuba 2077. You can hear them almost snickering in the background for each line.
9 days managed to do what starfield couldn't handle: fly to and land on planets
Me: “I should go to sleep”
*Wicked Wizard posts a video*
Also Me: “Okay, one more video”
Same
sleep is for the weak
Sleep is for the dead@@user-qv1ie1ci6u
@@user-qv1ie1ci6u”sleep for the week” is what you wanted to say
2017 called and wants it's comment back
It's 2 am and Barbotine might've been scarier if I didn't look to my left and see my cat trying to bite a mouse in a video through my other monitor.
EDIT: 9 Days has some great stuff in it. If a team picked it up and worked on it while letting the current dev drive the ideas, it could be so cool. It's got what I think a lot of people want in a DBZ or crazy mystical martial arts game.
Barbotine def feels like some artsy depiction of anxiety, self-image, something. Despite being low poly, I found the way the player's hands move to be really satisfying? It's like low poly but really smooth framerate. 😂
There's basically no games made in engines that look like that anymore. This is a post processing effect on some true 3d models.
the body of the characters in 9 days are so well oiled. The Rock is going to love it.
i really love these positive and constructive videos your making, its a joy to watch them, instead of all the "this is and that is bad and im going to shit on it"
WOw, that game 9 Days looks really promising. If they had some proper time and funding I bet they'd be able to create a truly amazing game.
I wanted to say that in 9days the grass has shadows, nicely done
The render distance is shot but the fact that it has so much grass and doesn’t lag is impressive
The voice acting in “Cuba 2077” is so funny to a Cuban
Cuba 2077 might be the best one on the list just for the voices
IKR! Getting sick of Ai VA, too.
In the first game, I would've laughed if the PS1 somehow turned into a PS2 for one of the days but went back to a PS1 for the rest of it.
The third game was basically just Dragon Ball, and I fuck with that lol.
fuck yeah finally another wicked wizard video, ive been craving content
Barbotine looks like the most competently made game on the channel. I by far prefer old-school graphics to the off-looking mishmash of asset packs most of the games use. It has a story, a deeper meaning, and actually decent creepy-horror. It doesn't try to do more than it can and does what it tries to do, well.
The 1st game has that low poly, pixelated texture works well with the horror esque theme
I always look forward to your videos. Keep up the good work, my dude
9 days had some very cool ideas
I like the content man would love more frequent posts. Good stuff man
I love these videos so much. I would never have even found out about these games without people like you trying them out! The best games are always the worst!
The 9 days game is like a sci-fi Wushia inspired by Dragon Ball Z.
Love the content bro keep it comin'! Very relaxing.
ayo good night to my fellas watching this rn
I enjoy these Steam deep cuts a lot. Thanks.
9 Days managed to do space flight better than Starfield.
love your videos Wizard keep up the good work
bro i just got finsihed of watching a montage of ur vids and as soon as a see u posted another vid, i got hella exited
I'd unironically love a fully developed 9 Days. The concept and features look really fun.
I love the voice acting and dialogue for Abandoned World, I was giggling a lot during them!
Really liking this format! Good mix of finding hidden gems, weird stuff, and bad games.
I want wicked wizard to play more horror games, its adorable how he gets jumpy from the simplest things.
honestly the first game caught me the most out of all of these. i was rly surprised how it suddenly picks up and becomes rly cool?? the way the music picks up and the surprisingly good fighting.... u can tell it was well thought out and loved i thinks. props to that dev, i can see the intent w the themes its going for
Barbotine reminds me of that one point-and-click dystopia game where music is outlawed by the moral police and you play as a rockstar trying to rebel. I forget what that game was called, something like 'euphoria', I think.
11:14 Dam the new Battlefront 3 looks amazing 😍
I love your perspective when you review games. Instead of disregarding games as asset flip slop like most would, you actually find the good aspects of each game, it seems like you have a fun time playing them too.
Honey wake up its a new wicked wizard vidio let's stream it unconditionally for 5 months till the new one!!!!!!!
Hell yeah perfect timing for a new wicked wizard vid
These videos are great. I've actually bought a few games I saw on here, despite being rough around the edges. It'd be nice to see some more colorful games. The drab dark gray or dark blue style gets old.
It is just incredible that you can recognize a movement/combat asset pack and know about a one hit kill E move kept in it that the game doesn't tell you about
Nice! New Wiz content before bed.
The third game be like:
Mum, can we have Dragonball?
No, Billy, we have Dragonball at home.
Dragonball at home:
9 days has sooo much potential
It would be an awesome time if it was more refined and less buggy.
Your end tune for summarizing a the game Barbotine sounds like Lemon Jelly Homage to Patagonia. Great tune :)
the third game is literally how i image the gameplay of a dragonball game
I can recomend Eyes Over Us, narrative puzzle Game were you are a lovecraftian god torturing some people in a hole in the ground. Less than 20 reviews
more of this series! love seeing undiscovered gems
This is an awesome series! I hope the devs see this and take the criticism to heart!
The aesthetics and animation in that first game are stunning fr
The first one looks very cool, I'll check the dev work !
ok may be way off base here because I saw other people talking about anxiety with the first game and that makes a lot of sense but there was one piece of artwork showing lungs during that and it made me wonder if it had anything to do with addiction/attempting to quit smoking, the mirror would represent the character superficially understanding that whatever they are doing is bad for them but they keep digging their grave further, and the flower people would be like the roots in the lungs, with fighting them being dealing with withdrawals and everything trying to quit. Just my interperetation though.
Hell yeah I needed something to listen to, thank you based wizard man.
the first one remind me of golden light, very cool!
I think God clicked this video for me. I was scrolling the feed looking for a video to watch and my finger twitched down and tapped on yours. Really it felt more like it got pushed down for a half second, but I'm here for whatever the hell this is.
The finger twitch spell is working
@@wicked_wizard well better not accidentally cast it on the wrong person..
brain surgeon suddenly going "oops, my finger pressed by itself..."
12:46 I think that's a Republic Venator, not a Star Destroyer. Although it's hard to see, you can just make out the double tower the Venator has.
That first game was brilliant, I was rooting for the ps1 the whole way through
I think I love that 9 Days game. Such spectacular possibilities
I'd be interested in seeing completely different genres of game for a future episode of this. I think itd be interesting to see some platformers, fighting games, or puzzle games for example.
another underrated youtuber to add to my niche interests
27:30 the berserk eclipse lmaooo
9 Days is actually pretty sick. Give it a year or two, and it'll be fantastic
I think the polygon jitter in the first game might be a reference to the jitters caused by the rounding errors of the integer-based math used in the original Playstation
16:37 “McFly, you bojo, those boards don’t work on water!”
Wicked Wiz. Truly "the one with the hands".
I hate it when I find a new channel that's fantastic, binge their content, then realize I have to wait three weeks for them to make a new video. DAMNIT
this is a really good series
German elfs? That would make them Elevens, wouldn't it.
Another banger incoming 🔥
This will be the video I drunkenly pass out to tonight. You are honored, funny wizard man.
Barbotine is the only decent looking proof of concept Horror Retro game on the list that looks like it is worth a damn.
when you died randomly in abandoned world lmao - you've got a new subscriber friend 👍
barbotine seems like a pretty well made and interesting game
I started watching cheap steam game reviews, and now I can't stop.
How is this so entertaining?
I've wasted so much time...
38:45 These Cars are so Futuristic they can Drive without needing a Person Inside
3:26 that jump scare was great
If you're familiar with Megaton Rainfall, I believe that's where the dev of 9 Days took the mechanic of flying into different universes and planets.
"It's just low poly"
*flinches at every move
3:23 That fucking COVID jumpscare killed me 🤣🤣
Hey, Wiz. Good video.
