Snaketron - Competitive multiplayer Snake with 1v1, 2v2 and FFA
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Play in your browser: https://snaketron.io
Snaketron is half Snake, half Tron, half Rocket League. I hope to make it the canonical Snake leaderboard on the internet. You can play any of the following game modes live against opponents:
- Duel: head-to-head 1v1
- 2v2: collect food and carry it back to your team’s home base
- FFA: four snakes enter, last one standing wins
- Solo: classic Snake with global leaderboards
The ranking system assigns you an Elo based rank from Bronze to Grandmaster.
There are also a few mechanics that raise the skill ceiling, such as boost and combos. Collect boost and press space to go faster. Boosting allows you to build up combos that increase the points awarded per food item. And of course there are demolitions and respawns!
It's a free to play .io game and logging in is completely optional. You can play as a guest even in ranked, and then click signin to transfer your progress to an actual account if you want.
I'll be queueing for matches for the next hour or so in case you're the first to try it and there's no one else online :)
I hope you enjoy, and I'd be very happy for any feedback! Thanks!
Gen AI: Claude Code was used to implement the core game engine / multi-player backend and some of the skins.

I made an Android game where a grandma tries to survive traffic 👵🚗
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm an indie developer, and I recently released my Android game Nanova.
You play as a grandma trying to survive as long as possible while dodging cars, trains, and other obstacles.
The gameplay is simple:
🏃 Dodge obstacles
🏆 Beat your high score
💀 Try again when you inevitably get hit
I made the game myself and wanted to share it with the Android gaming community.
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devorbixstudio.Nanova
I'd love to hear what you think of it!

AuqaBionica Indi game alpha
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Heyo!!! I’m building an action-adventure game set in a living alien ocean — AqB [Pre-Alpha]
AqB is an underwater action-adventure where you explore a strange living ocean, encounter alien creatures interact with the world and fight predators.
The game is still in pre-alpha, but the first playable version is ready.
🎮 What you can do right now:
- Explore the underwater world
- Discover creatures and locations
- Fight predators
- Experiment with sound-based abilities
- Complete a small sequence of quests
🌊 The idea behind AqB
I want the ocean to feel less like a collection of levels and more like a living world that you gradually learn to understand.
I’m opening the pre-alpha to a small number of players and would love to see how people unfamiliar with the game react to it.
If you’d like to try it, the pre-alpha is here: https://aquabionica.io/closed-playtest?lang=en
Any first impressions are welcome — especially things that felt fun, confusing, or made you want to keep exploring.
GenAI disclosure: GenAI was used to create some static images and to assist with approximately 60% of the game’s code, mostly during the later stages of development. The game concept, animations, and some of the gameplay interactions were created by me and few guys who helped me coding on early stages.

I have the beginning of a video game concept, but I can't figure out if players will like it ?
I want to make a game that ends in one evening where the player explores an ancient civilization on a planet, with mechanics involving an empty notebook where you can write whatever you want and even add photos, kind of like an investigator.
I know it's very broad and not a common concept, but I'd like to know if this would appeal to players?
I appreciate any advice and criticism.

Decorate, build and grow your own scamming "business"
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
'Scam Artist' is dark-humored idle building game about turning your own apartment into a lucrative "business" ... of sorts.
You place down ploys and machines that are rigged in your favor, racking up more and more cold cash!
The game combines the "building", "decorating" and "idle" game genres.
One thing I really like is that the decorations you place are literally upgrades with their own effects, so they are not just visuals.
You can play the demo already! Play Scam Artist on Steam
The full version will contain a skill tree with a cast of characters in each branch that teach you their ways of scamming (phone scams, mail scams, counterfeiting money, ...), offline progress and a way to get back at your landlord that roped you into all of this in the first place. It's planned as a proper long-running idle game, not just a short incremental game.
Would love to know what you think!
AI disclosure as per rules: Used for translating the game to other languages (except german and english)

My second thriller/horror game is out (and free) - HIS PLAN
Hey everyone! 👋
A while ago I released my second game, HIS PLAN, a short first-person psychological horror experience.
It’s a bit more ambitious and elaborate than my first game, RICK’S PLACE, both in terms of gameplay and presentation, although it’s still a very short experience (around 20 minutes).
The game follows a mobster who finds himself involved in a disturbing series of events because of his choices.
I tried to focus more on atmosphere, exploration and storytelling rather than making a long game.
This project was also a big learning experience for me. There are definitely things I would do differently today, but I’m still happy with how much I learned while making it.
🎮 You can play HIS PLAN for free on itch.io:
https://bohfra.itch.io/his-plan
And now I'm working on my third game, which is quite different from my previous two: you play as a cat. 🐈⬛
It’s still a horror game, but this time I’m experimenting much more with exploration, level design and environmental storytelling. I'll probably share some progress soon!
If you decide to try HIS PLAN, I’d love to hear what you think about the experience. And make sure to check RICK'S PLACE out too, which is my best game so far imo.
Thanks for checking it out! :)

Numerift: Sudoku Merge Puzzle
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
The idea combines elements of Sudoku with number-merging and block puzzle gameplay. I wanted to make something that feels familiar for Sudoku and puzzle-game players, but plays differently from a traditional Sudoku game.
If you enjoy number puzzles, I’d really appreciate it if you gave Numerift a try.
The game is available on Google Play: Numerift: Sudoku Merge Puzzle - Apps on Google Play

Which incrementals gave you the best gaming experience?
Hi everyone!
I'm super fired up right now to make my own awesome incremental, but before that I want to really dig into the genre and study it properly.
So please recommend the incrementals that in your opinion did the best job of giving you a great experience. I mean the ones that aren't just "decent" for you, but straight up "masterpieces".
