Ultrakill and other Steam Game Festival demos worth checking out

The Steam Game Festival: Summer Edition is live right now as part of “Not E3″ online events, and it includes demos for dozens of unreleased games. If you’ve never been to the Electronic Entertainment Expo, it’s a digital adaptation of this experience. You don’t walk up to 30 kiosks in a booth in the Los Angeles Convention Center; you get to enjoy demos from the comfort of your home PC. The festival runs through 10 a.m. Pacific on June 22, so you shouldn’t wait to give these a go.

But where to start? The Steam Game Festival has more demos than most people could play, so you should probably go in with a plan. And that’s where I come in to help. I’ve picked out a handful of demos that are worth downloading and trying for yourself.
