Running games off my microsd has a lot of issues and only works rarely (legion go s, not sure if its the reader or card, heard it’s just slow in general)

So I’m looking for more smaller games (at or below 10gb with exceptions if it’s multiplayer online, no bigger than 25gb in that case)

Right Now I Have (haven’t played or tried them all yet, I like variety when I do sit down to play)

  • Trackmania Stadium and Valley less than 2gb total
  • Trackmania 7gb
  • Helldivers 2 slim version 22.54gb
  • Warhammer speed freaks (suprisingly fun when theres a lobby with ppl) 17gb
  • Asphalt Legends 9gb (way better than I expected out of a free game)
  • Burnout Paradise Remastered 7.45gb
  • Flatout Ultimate Carnage 5.19gb
  • Redout 4.56
  • Risk of Rain 2 3gb
  • Astroneer 3gb
  • Valheim 2gb
  • Factorio 1.89gb
  • Slay The Spire 1.66gb
  • Monster Train 1.51gb
  • N++ 1.35gb
  • Rivals of Aether 351mb
  • Enter the Gungeon 343mb
  • Noobs are coming 311mb
  • Nuclear Throne 222mb
  • Brotato 213mb
  • Hypersomnia (topdown shooter) 500mb
  • Albion Online 7gb (tried it a few times, never really clicked but I crave a mmo)
  • Hades 2 11.4gb
  • Hollow Knight 7.6gb

I like all genres but prefer stuff that works purely with the controller.

Ideally, looking for multiplayer pvp game that isn’t a first person shooter since mouse and keyboard wins out there on pc.

Do topdown and sidescrolling online pvp shooters still exist?

    • brotato - 2d shooter+deck builder
    • mindustry - I recommend this all the time. Open Source, RTS + FactoryBuilder, fantastic game.

    Both < 1gb

        The factory building part in Factorio is way way deeper and far more complex. And if you add Space Age, five times so.

        Mindustry is mainly a tower defense, and the factory part serves this mechanic.
        You still need to mine resources and build stuff and bring the ammo to the turrets using conveyor belts and all that good factory things.
        It’s a pretty fun game and you can play it even on mobile.

      These seem solid, I put off a few of them like dave the diver and vampire survivors, because I wanted to get a handheld first and forgot about them

        Can you tell I like rogue-likes? I do think they work great for mobile games since you can pick them up and put them down easily

        Cool, I updated my post. I remember for a long time it was only available on PC and iPad. Not on iPhone. So I just kinda assumed it wouldn’t

      Dungeon clawler, breachway, cult of the lamb, and cobalt core are in a similar vein and have worked great on my deck

    I remember I fit binding of isaac and an archlinux install into 10 gigs of storage using btrfs transparent compression.

    The computer was a craptop with only 32 gigs of flash storage overall.

        Not at random.

        But you can definitley find people looking to play via the community, but you won’t have much luck just jumping into online.

        Game is still getting updates.
