I’ll add a +1 to Battleblock Theater! Such a well done game that can be true co-op or “co-op with shenanigans” if that’s more your vibe. The story is entertaining and lighthearted and the levels introduce new mechanics throughout.

You can self host with Vaultwarden! It’s just the server; you use the same Bitwarden clients.

I’ve only been playing the past handful of games but it’s a fun daily puzzle. I find it interesting that I either get sub 5 minute times or over 50 minute times. Lol

It’s a mobile game, but Sandship kinda checks all those boxes.

• Slice & Dice is a fun game here and there
• Poweramp Equalizer is pretty nifty if you use decent headphones or swap listening devices frequently. You can save profiles per device.

I’ve been describing this as if Animal Crossing had an MMO. It’s cute, cartoony, and cozy/relaxing. It has all of the typical MMO activities but a very heavy focus on house building and customization. The fishing mini game is decent to not get too boring and the cooking skills are a fun mix of different mini games. Overall it’s a nice balance of freshness and QoL improvements for a nice chill gaming session. I’m excited to see where jt goes after launch!

It’s only cosmetics. It’s just getting to beta but they have a decent start to the store for clothing items for purchase. Doesn’t seem to be a terrible way at all. Aside from the tutorial mission about it, you could simply never interact with the storefront ever again.

It is so much an “Animal Crossing, the MMO” type of game. I’ve been having a blast in the closed beta. The house building aspect is surely what op is looking for. So many little details one can build out!
