Weeklong Deals for 3/8/21

If roguelikes are your jam, this will probably be the week for you! The Weeklong Deals are weighted towards all kinds of procedurally-generated deathtraps, from platformers to minesweeper. Platformers are similarly well-represented, along with some more obscure titles that I’ve been wanting to shine some light on.
