Whether you play on Steam or on Switch (pssssst, play on Switch), make sure you check out Gato Roboto. The only frustration I found in that regard was having go through the dialogue for each and every boss attempt, but for that to be my biggest complaint is a pretty big accolade for the game. The game is fairly generous with save point placement, so dying and losing an hour of progress isn't a concern. This is the perfect game to fire up and play through on a flight, a train ride, or a morning commute (assuming you're not driving on your commute I do not condone playing Switch while driving). Yes, it's a very short game, but it's also an extremely affordable game, and most importantly, it's an extremely enjoyable game. Gato Roboto is an extremely short experience, and while a three to four hour time to beat may seem unduly short to some and serve as a turn off, I must recommend that those people reconsider.
