PICK OF THE FORTNIGHT
SWEYET(etc.) (DEMO!) by SHMIAM, SWEYET, SSSSSSS!
A demo of a game focused on exploring dreamscapes with absurd yet deeply funny premises, all linked by the peculiar characters you encounter. It also features a fun blinking-based mechanic that alters the world around you, optionally using your webcam. A promising taste of things to come.

These are pretty cool! I've always heard about itch.io, but I'm not too knowledgeable about it. But after seeing this list, and your other lists, I have to check it out. These all look fun, different, and experimental. Hype.
