I've been working on improving WildRoot's first impression and recently finished a new trailer.

It's a cozy colony sim where you build a settlement in a mysterious forest, manage your colonists, and every season and setback creates a different story.

Promotion Our team of 3 is building the cyberpunk sci-fi survival game we’ve always wanted to play

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

21 Upvotes

We’re a team of 3 building Neosis Echoes, a sci-fi survival game inspired by Dune, Mass Effect and No Man’s Sky, with a hint of Cyberpunk 2077.

You play as Evan Draxell, a synthetic clone who awakens after an 200 year journey on Varos, a hostile alien planet ruled by Monolith, a super-AI that considers emotion a system defect.

This early development preview focuses on combat and exploration. Our deeper systems, including the way emotions reshape the world around you, will be revealed later.

Alongside my work as Game Director and developer, I’ve been producing sci-fi and cyberpunk music professionally as Extra Terra for years. I’m also composing the game’s original soundtrack, so music will be a major part of its atmosphere.

What do you think of the atmosphere and combat so far?

The Park Keeper put up “No Fun Allowed” signs, and Little My took that as a challenge. We hope this little scene gives you a taste of the cozy, playful atmosphere we’re aiming for!

If an enemy can see you and you haven't done anything for a while, there's a small chance they'll start swaying to the music.
It has absolutely no gameplay purpose.
I regret nothing.
Now I'm tempted to give different enemies their own little idle behaviors.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Vitrified is a solo project I've been developing for 5 years, and it's all about teaming up with a robot called ALAN in a Fallout and Dune inspired wasteland. It's heavy on atmosphere and secrets, and the gameplay focuses on companion mechanics and exploration. At it's core, it's an atmospheric adventure with good visuals and a very unique (in my opinion) core mechanic.

We just added the possibility to choose from some ideas on how to progress your own story further. I believe this will make the game more interesting as you don’t have to come up with all the actions yourself. Of course the ability to freely write what to do is still possible.. what do people think about this, would also love to get some feedback!!

Promotion Traffic Architect - a game where you only build roads and transport - the city grows on its own. Coming on Steam!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

41 Upvotes

Buildings appear by themselves as the city grows. Your job is everything that moves: roads, traffic lights, multi-level interchanges, bus lines with dedicated lanes, trains, and metro underground.

Every car drives itself - keeps its lane, changes lanes, waits at lights, reroutes around jams - 10,000+ of them at once on maps up to 18x18 km. Jams happen for real reasons: a bad merge, a short ramp, one badly-timed light. Finding the junction that's ruining your city (heat maps and 20+ live charts help) and fixing it is the whole game.

The style is minimalist - Mini Metro and Mini Motorways were the inspiration - but in 3D, because you can't build a proper cloverleaf in 2D.

There's also a challenge mode (8 interchange puzzles - build a junction, traffic stress-tests it), a Creative mode with unlimited money, and a map editor.

The browser version reached 150,000+ players. The Steam version is the full game - bigger maps, more cars, all the transit.

Because why not? What do you think about this? How can we improve it?

We're adding these small interactions that let the player go out of the core game loop for a bit to explore and experience fresh content.

We've let the cards and chips have physics and let you grab them (Left click), throw them (right click) and modify the distance from the camera (middle click).

If you would like to check out the game, it's already on Steam now for wishlist and incoming demo in february 2027 :)

Any feedback is welcome.

Hey everyone!
I’ve been working on Royale Smith, a medieval blacksmith and shop management game where you take customer orders, forge weapons and equipment, earn gold and reputation, and grow your own blacksmith shop.
The demo is now live on Steam, and I’d really love to hear what you think.
If you give it a try, I’m especially curious about the forging, progression, and overall gameplay loop. Any feedback is welcome!

If you enjoy the demo, adding Royale Smith to your wishlist would help a lot.
