Sea of Thieves, Rare's open world multiplayer pirate game that launched in March, received a patch today to version 1.06. It's not the big update due this month that promises a 'new AI threat' but instead one that features some tweaks, bug fixes, and several new cosmetic items. It also includes the gun you see above called the Eye of Reach, which can be purchased for a single gold coin in shops.

PixelJunk Monsters 2 is a cute tower defense game about turning trees into weapons of war for the sake of protecting some chibi tiki dudes, and it's coming to PC on May 25. Developer Q-Games released a free Steam demo for it earlier today, so you can sample its first level now. You're gonna need a controller, though, and ideally an Xbox controller (it wouldn't register my PS4 controller connected via Bluetooth).

I'm starting to hope Ooblets, developer Glumberland's creature collecting farm sim (which Double Fine is publishing), comes with a glossary. In the new April developer update alone, we've got terms like followbabies, oobcoops, and some alien horror called 'taxes.'

I'd never heard of developer Caiysware until today, when I happened to catch their latest game, Skelly Selest, in the Steam new releases page. It's an 8-bit bullet hell roguelike about dismembering ghouls in the pits of Hell, specifically in such scenic locales as the Bone Plains, Flesh Gardens, and Soul Necropolis. You can get it on Steam for $3 (or $2.24 if you buy before May 8), which looks like a bargain for the amount of game on offer.
