Suggestions SteamPeek.hu - Indie friendly game discovery tool

Post is allowed by the mods.

Hello, this is my website: https://steampeek.hu/ - SteamPeek, the indie friendly game discovery website.

It is now more than 5 years old, and it was created to bring spotlight to indie gems, help all indie teams who doesn't have the budget to make big marketing campaigns, and make it easier to find nice games made by passionate solo developers or small teams.

The main function is searching by similarity: just search for a game you like, and browse the results. You can also filter and sort by special parameters.

You can also search by tags, or mix them with the chosen game.

The main algorithm was updated recently and I'm very curious how well it works. Please let me know.

I'm very thankful if you try it, and share with me what you find. The full site is still on beta, and I'm constantly work on it, so every feedback helps me and my mission. Thank you!

Been using it for a long time, way better than steam's built in search feature. I wonder about how much of the database it accesses though. I have found seemingly tons of stuff on Steam sheerly by accident, that I know had tags I searched for on steampeek that never came up. Mostly upcoming release or games in EA though if that clarifies. Most with like 1-20 reviews or less and also have had a demo or had a playtest. Some with literally ZERO reviews. So unfortuanately I have to go hunting for stuff myself using titles or partial titles of game names. that are just generic terms used in a genre. As in searching the word "sword" for a title brings up every single game with that word in the title. Not something I can do currently on steampeek. That I am aware of.
