Lately, I have been immensely enjoying Rollerdrome on my Steam Deck, and figured an indie game as superb as this deserves a thread of its own.
The game is described as follows:
In a nutshell, it successfully combines Tony Hawk's Pro Skater with the bullet time of Max Payne, the distinct cel-shaded comicbook visuals of XIII, and the themes behind the old science fiction sports movie, Rollerball. It's one of those games that just feels supremely satisfying to play, and looks stunning in action.
Have a butcher's at the following video review from Skill Up to see the game in action, and find out what makes it so remarkably compelling:
Unfortunately, Steam's Winter Sale pricing for it just ended, but I would highly recommend using IsThereAnyDeal.com to grab it at a discount when possible.

This is on gamepass for the Xbox, and it's pretty fun thus far.
