Are there any games that are considered "bad" but you still enjoy playing (that are released after 2020 especially indie ones.)?

Here are few games from my list:

-The Curse of Nordic Cove
-Metal Wolf Chaos XD
-Blood and Bacon
-EARTH DEFENSE FORCE games
-Tomato Way
-Bullet Witch
-Age of Barbarian Extended Cut
-Death end re;Quest
-Ace of Seafood
-Animal Fight Club
-Ultra Fight Da ! Kyanta 2

I'm looking forward to hearing your recommendations!

I refuse to believe blood and bacon is a bad game, its a perfect game of the century

Homestead Arcana. Arguably it was one of the worst farming sims I've ever played with a terrible tutorial including a disappointing and nonsensical ending but I really liked the theme and farming mechanics.

Shadow the Hedgehog. It's not on Steam, but it should be.

Also there's EYE: Divine Cybermancy.

I genuinely liked Bad Rats Show. It's weird, compared to today's shovelware that it works. And it's unique. Inconsistent and ugly, but still above so many games.

Going by Steam reviews, these two games from my favorites list weren't well received:

  • InnerSpace has mixed reviews that mostly mention janky keyboard controls (fair enough I guess, I played with a controller) and it being hard to understand what you're supposed to do. I liked figuring things out for myself and exploring the world, which is absolutely beautiful, but I guess it's not for everyone.
  • Shadow Warrior 3 got many complaints for being too short and too different from previous entries in the series, but I thought the changes were improvements for the most part. Recent reviews are more positive though, so maybe it just needed some time to find its audience.

Some recs that I remember playing and liked even though they are considered "bad":

Daymare 1998
Syberia 3
any Doodle God games (besides the original one, I've always heard all the others were bad/reskins/lack on content, and I liked them all)

Scourge: Outbreak. It's a 3rd person co-op cover shooter type game that was kinda janky but I remember it was pretty fun when playing with others. But of course most co-op games are better when playing with other people. You also had a few special abilities in the game where you could create static or personal shields or shockwaves which gave it a bit of a twist.

Hard to say that EARTH DEFENSE FORCE games & Death end re;Quest are bad ones, clearly not for everyone (even more for Death end), and 50% ok with Ace of Seafood, since cleary weird and now Maneater is pretty overall better that this one.

But others "bad" ones that i liked, or at last liked for a short time :
Aerea - Really weak & too easy hack'n'slash, but even more, a glicth make one of the boss unkillable ...
Viking - Wolves of Midgard - Don' ask me why i have +100 hours on it ...
