This week I've been playing web-based button simulators. Namely, Demonin's Absolute Button Simulator 2 and Ducdat's Infinite Button Simulator. I think I prefer Infinite Button Simulator among the two. Both games are very grindy/repetitive and they make no attempt to hide it. It's charming in a strange way. I can't explain it fully - it's like these games have a sort of subtly shifting rhythm to them. Come to think of it, most incremental games also have their own rhythm; button simulators simply happen to be a sub-genre where I'm able to notice the nature of the rhythm very easily.

Vepro has published 3 games to galaxy.click. Of those 3, I've been playing Coloot Idle the most (but primarily because I've already played the other two). I'd consider it a semi-active simple game.

I only recently found out that Barribob has released a new game called Apex Machina. It lags a bit on my laptop but I like it. Take note that if you're on Linux you have to run it on a Chromium-based browser (and I'd assume the same for MacOS, but I haven't tested).

Oh yeah, there's also a Genshin Impact-themed incremental published to galaxy.click called nahidaQuest!. It wasn't my style and I'm unsure of its legality but I can see that there was quite a significant amount of effort put into it so you may like it.
