    Hello! I was part of the programming team for HoloXBreak and I've also made some holo fangames as solo dev. Very nice video!
    As you mentioned in the video, there are lots of hololive fangames out there (I have listed over 500 in the hololive fangames database) and covering all of them would require a super long video or a series of multiple videos. XD
    So, if you asked me which of those 500 I would like to see in future videos, I'd suggest:
    - The Holoween Collection
    - holoware
    - nameless
    - Holo EN Rhythm Game
    - Age of Advent
    - Ceres Fauna -Seasons of Promise-
    - Nui Nui Quest
    - Mumei no Toshi
    - WOWOWOW Korone Box
    - Delivering Hope (I made this!)
    Finally, I just wanted to mention there's a regular hololive fangames gamejam happening every 3 or so months, which has contributed to the explosion in number of hologames lately. The next holojam is probably starting in a few weeks. :D

    Little known fact about Holocure is that it was so well received by the outside community that:
    - It is #1 game of 2023 by Steam user ratings (higher than Pizza Tower and Lethal Company)
    - And #7 game by Steam user ratings of ALL TIME (higher that Terraria)

    Holocure save the fans is getting a new version fairly soon and its about to be a massive one including some of the most anticipated character additions like the (in)famous chairman Kiryuu Coco, even more side mode content, QOL upgrades ,etc.
    Also i think one thing(aside from being free) that should definitely be said to add to its popularity is the charismatic creator and his commitment to keeping it a free fan game and a "passion product" and just him being incredibly based and unfiltered for someone who is big name animator in the anime industry (if you watched shows in the last few years from Japan like mushoku tensei which lets face it the animation saves that piss poor adaptation or hell even some western ones like castlevania you have seen his work) openly willing to call out companies like niji for their treatments of talent,etc.
    The dude refused to even make a kofi account even tho people beg him to let them give him something in return. As a plus Kay yu even got to work on a holo projects like recently the MV for the theme song of "enigmatic recollection",

    What I love about R-TRUS's inclusion in Idol Showdown is the way he's animated. It's like his mech jumped right out of Gundam Battle Assault and into that game which makes it super charming.
    Also you should cover some more smaller games like "Just Punch" by GunArcher, it's a simple 3d platforming game about Gigi Murin punching rocks to find keys or the Holoween Collection by Mon Amiral. Great video btw!

    18:00 there aren't really that many nijisanji fan games afaik since i think their "use of IP" policies are more restrictive than holo's which even before creating holo indie didn't mind fan games. Additionally there were a few fan games scheduled to be made but after a certain... event... that didn't happen (notably there was a game about selen which apparently got splashed with a bucket of yellow paint afterwards). All that being said, it's technically less of a game by the fans and more of a game for the fans since selen and pomu were part of its creative process, but i've heard lots of good things about "detective rainpuff at tatsuki manor".

    You wanna know what I'd love? A game based on the Yamato Phantasia manga. I know HoloEarth is kinda sorta gonna encompass _all_ of Hololive Alternative, but Yamato Phantasia just kinda _hits_ for me.
    Think about it. Gameplay that's maybe kinda similar to Fate/Samurai Remnant, with you playing as Fubuki, Mio, Ayame, and maybe some other characters, each of which has different fighting styles and such. General gameplay loop is kinda like the Yakuza games, where you have the mostly serious main story, as well as a bunch of goofy side activities and side story missions, along with a _somewhat_ open world to explore?
    ...look, I just love Yamato Phantasia, the lore there is incredible and I am extremely invested in everything going on there. It's currently on this story arc about a Miko doppelganger and it's honestly just amazing. The hype, the comedy, the action, everything is just so on-point with it.
