I had fun blasting fungus limbs in Mycopunk, Devolver Digital's co-op shooter, but it'll take a lot to lure me away from Deep Rock Galactic

A big enemy with a fleshy orb in Mycopunk fires lasers from its spindly tentacles as it walks around on metal legs.

Mycopunk comes from the Greek – 'myco' meaning 'mushroom' and 'punk' meaning 'punk'. With that rigorous training out of the way, it's time to appease your cockroach commander Roachy and immediately drop from space to the Gravity Farms of New Atlas. Just for a cleanup detail. Don't mind the things with all the limbs. That's why you've got large weapons strapped to you.

Developed by Pigeons at Play and published by Devolver Digital, Mycopunk is comfortable with the irreverent tone of the publisher's portfolio. While there's a striking beauty to the lo-fi visuals of New Atlas when you land, covered with textures the team describe to me as "dirty Moebius" (the celebrated French comic artist and writer), it's just as at home letting you combine rude hand gestures with various dance emotes.
