Do you want to spray paint a giant robot?
What a silly question — who doesn’t?! Spray Paint Simulator is an upcoming relaxing game about bringing objects new life through spray paint. You begin a spray painting business, taking on an eclectic list of clients. Sometimes, you’ll have to paint the unexpected. In this case, a giant robot! And there are some new details to learn about our mechanical friend, the ZACH-BOT 1.
Zach, a tech genius and billionaire inventor, has created his own giant robot. The design is genius, but its visuals are less than stunning. You’ll need all tools on deck, including a cherry picker that you restored earlier in the game, and use all the knowledge you’ve gained through your career. Once ZACH-BOT 1 is painted, it will be perfect… but what will the genius inventor do with it?!
Developed by North Star Games and published by Whitethorn Games, Spray Paint Simulator will be released for PC via Steam/Microsoft, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, and Xbox One later this month. (The exact date should be announced soon!)

Saeko: Giantess Dating Sim launches for PC late this month
Set at the beginning of the 21st century, Saeko: Giantess Dating Sim follows Saeko, who has mysterious abilities, and the people she has shrunk to the size of her thumb. Experience their fates during the day and at night with two separate game systems with different art styles. Play as Rin, the latest addition to Saeko’s collection of shrunken people. She protects you by keeping you and the others in her desk drawer. But watch out, as Saeko has some… interesting… hobbies. Announced last week, the game is set to launch for PC in late May.
You have been tasked with the role of supervisor. During the day, you’re in charge of keeping the group together. This is no ordinary position, though: while you distribute items and interact with the other shrunken people, you must meet certain Health and Appeal stats to make Saeko’s “wish” come true. The stats determine if they live or die. At night, you are allowed out of the drawer to be Saeko’s confidante. Listen to what she has to say, and reply “yes” or “no” as needed. Human life means so much less when you’re only as big as a thumb… Give the wrong answer, and you’ll meet a bad end.
Developed by Safe Havn Studio and published by Hyper Real, Saeko: Giantess Dating Sim will be released for PC via Steam/DLsite/Stove on May 29.
