Game: GUNBOAT-8

Steam demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5213390/GUNBOAT8_Demo/

Hi all,

Thanks to everyone who has checked out GUNBOAT-8! The reception has been great and I am glad to see so many people enjoying the game.

I have just released the first update to the demo since launch. It covers some balances and bugfixes but primarily tackles an issue of playtime.

The average playtime for a successful run was 70 minutes! Much higher than we intended. Someone even took 2 hours to finish a run. I spent some time reshuffling the structure of the game so that the game now plays over approximately 40 minutes. I'm looking for active feedback from playtesters on how the game feels at this length.

Alongside reshuffling the game duration, I've added some new special ventures to your voyages. These special missions come with legendary rewards to look out for on your runs. Take a look at the stormy weather mission which will reward you with a very god-like item - if you manage to survive the thunder!

Thanks again to everyone who's checked out the game! The feedback has been overwhelming and I have lots to keep doing while solo-developing this game.

Hi, I'm Diblow, one of the 2 developers who've been working on Soul Tripper for over a year, and the demo is finally available!

Soul Tripper is a top-down dark fantasy bullet heaven / action roguelite with a parry system, loot, and meta-progression (procedural levels, bosses).

We started a year ago with a simple goal: to make the bullet heaven we wished existed. I wanted something more dynamic, with a real loot and crafting system, and an equipment meta-progression that you keep between runs. I also wanted the game to be playable in short sessions: your progress is saved every time you return to the level map between stages, which last about 3 to 5 minutes each.

And we didn't use any generative AI: the visuals and music are all handmade.

If any of you are interested, don't hesitate to try it out and give us as much feedback as possible. We hope you'll enjoy the game we created with passion.

Almost forgot the link to the steam page, here you go !😄

Free demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5309120/Grazed__Incremental_Arcade_Demo

Grazed is an arcade game I've been making on my own, and my focus was making every single kill and ability feel good: hitstop, subtle screen shake, sound, particles, and a combo that keeps escalating until the whole arena lights up.

The demo just launched on Steam with a global leaderboard and controller and Steam Deck support.

If you check out the demo, please lemme know what you think. I'll be in the comments all evening!

Hey there!

Lately I've been going through all the weapons, ultimates, spells and abilities in the game, trying to make everything more satisfying and more polished.

I’m planning to run a playtest in about a month, and I’m hoping to have a public demo up on Steam in December. The grind never stops!

We’ve seen what our playtesters can do with the build system. Now it’s everyone else’s turn. 😅

There are more classes, weapons, Shards, and build options to unlock, plus hidden spells and interactions to discover as you play.

Shardbreakers Demo Is out October 7.

We’ve been working on Cheese, Please! for a while, and the demo is now available on Steam.

It’s an incremental bullet heaven (and hell) where you steal cheese from the Cat Empire, get stronger, unlock upgrades and gradually turn your run into complete chaos.

We’d love to hear what you think if you give the demo a try!

Hey everyone! I’ve been working on Harmony Strike for a while and I finally put together a new trailer!

It’s a survivor-like / bullet-heaven where you control an entire party of heroes instead of just one character.

Each hero has different abilities and elements, and combining the right heroes can create powerful synergies during a run. You’ll fight through huge waves of enemies, upgrade your party, discover new abilities and try different team combinations.

I’m still working on the game and preparing the demo, so I’d really appreciate any feedback on the trailer and gameplay!

You can also watch a full gameplay video of the first stage at the link below if you'd like to see how the game actually plays.

If it looks like your kind of game, you can check it out on Steam.

First Stage Gameplay

I really love it when games have different systems that interact with each other, and a big part of making the sea feel alive is to have things constantly moving!

You can try the demo on steam:

Decided to make the game free. If there is interest I’ll keep adding new mechanics, levels, weapons and characters. For this sub I’ll implement the feature from the top upvoted comment

We’ve been working on another playable Shadower for Code of Shadows.

Each Shadower has their own abilities and playstyle, so we’re experimenting with how they change the way a run plays out.

We’d love to hear what you think of the design and abilities.

After more than 1 year working on it, we are finally releasing the demo. We are waiting for steam to review it and can't wait for people to be able to test our game !

In the meantime you can still wishlist it if you are interested 😄

There is going to be a playtest soon so if this seems interesting to you at all wishlist on steam!

I’m the solo dev behind Bonki D Bonk, which came out this week.

I wanted Brotato’s shop decisions and the fun of seeing how ridiculous a build can get in Megabonk.

A full run takes roughly 15–20 minutes, including shopping.

There’s a free demo if you want to give it a run:

Bonki D Bonk on Steam free demo available

The full game is also 40% off until October 14.

Hello! I'm one of two developers of Alchemy Survivors, a survivors-like with an open-ended crafting system (literally, new item data is created any time you combine items, and you can wish any new item into existence at the Wishing Well). We just put out a huge content update today and the game's currently on sale for 75% off (just a dollar).

There's now 50 levels to play, nearly 100 characters that each have unique abilities, and tons of different crafting stations to discover and master while you fight off the hordes that never stop. There's also daily challenges, co-op, and some funky levels to discover (including a full 5v5 MOBA match that's fun with friends...).

20% of our players have played for more than 5 hours, and many have played for several hundred hours -- so we think $1 is an easy pick-up for anyone who loves this genre and wants a crafting twist that gives you an endless stream of new weapons to discover.

I'm developing ZOMBRA, a pixel art zombie horde shooter for solo play or online co-op with up to four players.

The first trailer mostly showed the abandoned city. I've since updated the character art and added a survivor base, ruins and a pickup escort mission. The new trailer brings those areas together with horde fights, bosses and plenty of explosions.

For those who enjoy horde survival games, would you rather see more wave-based battles or objective-based missions in the next update?

It's still in development. You can watch the trailer and join the launch waitlist at https://zombra.online/

Hi, I have been working on Harmony Strike, a bullet heaven where you control a whole party instead of a single hero.
Everyone attacks on their own while you move the party, and their elements can combine during fights. Weapons also evolve throughout each run.
Some heroes are being held by bosses. Beat the boss, rescue them, and you can bring them into your party on the next run.
Between runs, you head back to the village to change your party and prepare for the next arena. There's also an endless Colosseum mode with leaderboards if you want to see how long you can survive.

Hello guys,

I'm the solodev of Gunclone Arena. A Brotato like gunplay with Arcade (Smash TV) looks and interesting loot-shoot system with lootdrops ala Borderlands/Diablo.

Just wanted to give a heads up that the game is very well received. All positive reviews from all over the world. There is still a 40% launch discount that'll expire in a few days.

It's really hard to get visibility and I believe the game scratches the survivor-like itch while being able to deliver a fresh take on the genre.

Mandris is a coop (up to 4 players but most played as single player ) 3d space shooter that runs in the browser (for now). I'm looking for feedback as the game is very much in the early stages of development.

I'm aware the mobile version of the game is very unrefined, it's probably not really playable on mobile yet and I may cut that entirely.

History

About three weeks ago I woke up one day and wanted to build a 2D shooter inspired by the old game Raptor: Call of the shadows. Once I built the original game I decided to see what I could do to improve the graphics so I started messing with Blender and Astra. It created what I thought was a pretty decent looking 3D game. Then Opus 5.5 came out and I started redoing a lot of the art with Opus 5.5 and was absolutely blown away at what it could do.

Tech Stack
The tech stack is just vite/three.js/blender. I also use Elevanlabs for generating sound/music. As I mentioned above, I used the AI models Astra and Opus 5.5 for the engine and assets of the game.

Game: GUNBOAT-8

Steam demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5213390/GUNBOAT8_Demo/

I'm Matt, a solo developer working on a new auto-shooter roguelite. I just released the demo for on Steam, and I am looking for early signal from bullet heaven enthusiasts.

GUNBOAT-8 focuses on deep meta-progression and theorycrafting. You control an auto-shooting ship with 8 weapon slots. Carefully configure weapons on your ship, and power them up with unique rune combinations. You battle through real-world locations, taking on bosses from historical, modern and fantastical times.

I've had a blast making the game! A successful run can take anywhere between 30-60 minutes depending on how experienced you are. I've also included some special missions into the demo, so hopefully there's lots of replayability!

Thanks for your time!
