Finally, had a decent one.
Forage Wizard!
A clicker game in which you craft materials and become more wizardrous in order to try and break the curse of the Cursed Turnip, which is apparently wanted for a shitload of money.
There's some automation in the demo, and the tech tree hints at there being more in the full game.
Overall it feels pretty nice to play, though it could benefit from togglable sprint mode.

It's 2025 stop requiring me to hold shift to sprint.

WAKEY WAKEY, EGGS AND... Satan.
It's Cult Nation.
There are two names in the credits, and it has multiple tunes. So uHHH suck it, past few unnamed entries.
It's a simple incremental game in which you sacrifice followers and collect their blood to wake up the devil, presumably so you can wash his bedding or something.
There're additional mechanics that unlock with prestiges.
I'm satisfied with the demo, maybe you'll like it more.

Cult Nation on SteamA short incremental game about sacrificing cult followers and collecting blood to awaken the devil.
Nimbit Frontier!
A combo of top down life sim and adventure game with room-based battles, in which you raise creatures called nimbits as part of a conservation program.
Has three different classes for playing, so you can focus on raising nimbits, discovering things, or kicking teeth in.
Wishlisted it, though I've a tendency to slam my face into doors before opening them manually.

Frostpunk, but instead of humans gathering around a generator tower to shelter from the cold, it's elves gathering around a tree to shelter from the... inquisition was the main issue I found, what with nabbing people and hurting them, and then I'd have to manually reassign workers, and it was lots of little things like that which kept adding into a pile of makework.
Also lack of info given. What's this thing? Hover the mouse over it. Nothing happens. Frig.

Come for the promise of farm automation.
Don't stay for the bootleg Stardew Valley art, the tedium despite the message at the start of the demo saying the tools have all been supercharged to get players into the demo faster, the awkward zoning, or the controls that don't work half the time, if that often.
And also the lack of an options menu.
125/?
I Was A Teenage Exocolonist!
A little bit of a life sim thing that gives the player the ability to customise a lot about their character regarding gender stuff.
The story in the demo pulled no punches, just check the list of content warnings.
Wishlisted it.

Okay I need a break. Shaving my head for fun is starting to sound like a good idea.
"The previous iteration of the game had automation elements, but I just felt like it didn't belong in this game."
Okay I guess that's why I can't build a robot in the part/robot/prosthetic manufacturing game and have it do the /fucking tedious/ mining for me.
Or clean up the green piss. I'd ask more about that, but really don't expect to want the answer.

Is This Seat Taken?
It's a logic puzzle where you use the stated wants of each piece to figure out where to put them all.
The art style is nice and clear, the little bouncy animations add life without going overboard, the soundtrack is nice and gentle.
The whole thing is just... nice. And on my wishlist.

Tiny Bookshop!
Another nice one. Manage a small mobile bookshop, picking up books to sell from the local classifieds, organising them for sale, and moving around different locations while meeting people.
Style and sound are nice, and there are some good accessibility options.
I'd like a pause button, though.
Wishlisted.
