If you like mild Casual 60ish minute games, then this is for you.

Dev Guy is one of those novelty games you find on steam once in a while, and definitely what you'd call:

Mildly Interesting...

Story/plot: *Seinfield theme*

Simple Story with barely anything to it, mildly amusing and laughable character(s). and yet Dev guy still manages to put the Twilight to shame. A bonus if you're a brony or is into MLP (I'm not but still found it funny)
Dev Guy is about an Indie game developer dev and mishaps that follow his attempts to try to get his game uploaded onto the App Store.

Gameplay: casual, mildly interesting 90s clusterf**k

Definitely one of the simpler although most interesting part of the game, simple overworld navigation plus minigames make this game a breeze, but this also might make it boring to some of you. but the game manages to bring a sense of nostalgia to some of us 'older millenials' out there in some mild ways.
Mild Tip: For added difficulty try playing this game with your feet. 10/10 Guranteed to increase frustration, heart rates and possibly even fun.

Art/Design: BR0NY 4EVR

No, seriously. There's MLP in here, though nothing as bad as Rule34 so no worries kids, you're safe....for now.
Otherwise the art is what the hipsters call 'tasteful' and is what makes this game more mildly interesting.
Sure, the main character mostly looks like a modded Mii character and has floating appendages and a surprising lack of arms when needed,
but it's part of what makes this game work. the casual laid-back art is a good thing.

OVERALL: Every time I used the word 'mild' in this review so far / 10
The actual Dev of this game seriously put some work into this game to make this all the more 'casual' and still manages to reference a lot of tropes you see in early(now considered ancient) games and while this is no One-man-masterpiece like 'Retro City Rampage', but is still a mildly interesting game worth checking out if you're out of games to play.

P.S there are no saves so you have to finish the game i one go.
