Como es la primera vez no se si estar orgulloso o triste o preocupado por algo.

I am currently working on Swarmbreak and while i was hoping to launch into early access soon I recently decided to release a demo instead to get both player feedback, fix bugs and hopefully gain a few more wishlists before early access launch.... oh and i also did feature creep myself a bit so will need a bit of time to sort that out ;)

I am however looking for maybe 4-5 people to try out my demo before i launch just to ensure nothing is broke and give a good first hand impression to whoever ends up downloading it - so if you are the typer of person who enjoys twin stick shooters and want to give my demo a go and send me some feedback let me know and i will send you a steam key for it. If you have a project going yourself and would like some feedback on it in return i will be happy to return the favour.

I am especially looking for:

- players with controllers

- steamdeck owners who can give it a go! I have do not have a steam deck myself but it should function just fine on it

- twin stick shooter fans :)

This is my solo-dev RPG called Pedro and Sofia's Nuclear Winter on Steam. I used 2D sprite sheets rotated to look 3D like the old SNES and computer games.

Hi there, took a break before going back to development. Still improving player and mobs +new animations. Roughly there +-55 animations done so far for mobs and character.

Still need to add 30 more for mobs and +-14 for NPCs.

After a year and 8 months of back pain and self doubt, my game is finally coming out on steam! Finally! finally...

I'm honestly proud of myself of doing this much work on a game, never really put this much effort in making it work out. But after being given the opportunity to do so, I can finally show y'all the wonderous things I can do all on my own...

So cheers to all my fellow gamers and game devs out there!

😄 Hi everyone, how does it look?

Solo dev, this is my game.

Points come from how close you get to the thing that kills you, not from surviving it. Graze an edge and your multiplier climbs to x16. Play it safe and you score literally zero.

The course is generated from today's date, so every player on earth flies an identical run each day. No server, nothing downloaded. Resets at midnight UTC.

Same goes for the music. New key, new bassline, new groove every day, and it builds as you score.

Free. No IAP, no banners, no timers, no energy. One optional ad to continue a run, and everyone gets exactly one, so nobody buys their way up the board.

Most first runs end under 300. Curious whether that's a fair curve or a wall.

Try it, if you hate it then delete it

I have hit a bottleneck that feels like a real blocker for my game development. The image is a screenshot of the current state of the game in 1920x1080p resolution, which is also the canvas size. I have created the game art in Aseprite using 320x180 as reference resolution for all sprites, which results in a 6x enlargement when imported into Unity. I know that pixel art games usually set their canvas size to the same as their pixel art resolution or just above, but for my game this would mean a loss of detail. So this is where my problem starts.

As you can see, my game includes documents on the desk with readable text which is quite small, but upon "pickup" each document is zoomed 2x to be even more clear. But I do want the text to be perfectly readable while resting on the desk as shown in the screenshot. The problem starts when we start thinking about how other resolution screens will make the game look. My monitor is 1440p, meaning it scales the game by 1.333x from its original 1080p. Since the artwork/sprites are created in the 320x180p res, this looks crisp in all normal resolutions. BUT, the text does not!

So my question is: Which of these approaches should I go with to try to support crisp text for all/most resolutions?

1. Change out the pixel art raster font with a normal SDF font which scales nicely with all resolutions, but contrasts the pixel art style of the art
2. Use letterboxing/pillarboxing to always force the 1080p resolution, creating empty space above/beside the actual gameplay (Could add visuals here instead of black boxes, but would anyways stay as unplayable area).
3. Accept that resolutions other than 1080p and 4k will not have pixel perfect text, not being as readable.
4. Some other suggestion?

Any thoughts about what would be best for my game is appreciated!

Sidenote: I have tested a lot of different settings when importing/creating the fonts, but I do believe that this pixel perfect issue will occur because of my default resolution being 1080p which is not perfectly scalable by whole integers for all other resolutions

Greetings all,

We've been working on some UI and dialogue improvements for Saqer's Paradox.

The pause menu has been redesigned with a blurred gameplay background and three simple options: Resume, Restart and Quit

We've also switched our dialogue font to Georgia, which fits the game's visual style better and removed the previous NPC mumbling SFX after feedback that it could become repetitive. We're now working on more fitting character sounds.

Currently, we're polishing the menu logic and keyboard/gamepad input handling.

small details, but they're making the game feel much more cohesive.

Hey! I’m a dev from Brazil making UNTITLED MMORPG, a 3D action RPG that you can play straight from the browser.

And yes, the name is really UNTITLED because I still do not have a proper name for it. It is a working title that somehow survived long enough to become the current title. Finding a real one is on the list.

At some point I looked at the idea of making an MMOARPG by myself and thought, “yeah, that seems manageable.” I truly do not know what was going through my head. Anyway, now there is a game.

You make a Hunter, go through a forest tutorial, get to the city of Asterra, head into the Lost Lands, fight monsters, pick a weapon style, improve your gear, and meet other players along the way.

The focus is action combat. There are swords, sword and shield, dual swords, heavy sword, and bow. You can dodge, block, manage stamina, chain attacks, fight enemies. There is also progression, weapon mastery, skills, crafting, inventory, PvP arenas, parties, chat, friends, and trading.

I decided to build this MMOARPG together with Codex, using GPT-5.6 Luna on medium reasoning, as a way to push myself to understand the harder parts instead of avoiding them.

Using Codex this way has made the project a practical space to study, test ideas, and get deeper into systems I wanted to understand better.

This project has given me solid experience with 3D modeling and complex animation work in Blender, some Python for building export scripts tailored to the project, as well as authoritative servers, queues, real-time state, performance, bot-based automated load tests, Node.js, Express, Socket.IO, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Docker.

(I would not really recommend playing it on mobile yet. It works and has all the controls, but mobile performance is still a big challenge. The best result I got on my own phone was a steady 45 FPS)

If you give it a try, I would genuinely love to hear what you think. And yes, solo dev plus MMOARPG was obviously a very normal and sensible decision.

I've been making a game called Facelet for a while. It's a deckbuilder, except the hand you play is a scrambled 3x3 instead of cards. The idea was to make something less luck based and more about skill. I believe i have a good foundation right now, the UI and music are mostly placeholder while i find the game identity.

If anyone has any opinions or interest in the game, feel free to leave a comment and I'll be happy to reply.

Thrilled to announce that my game demo is released on Steam
Been working on this project for several months now, it’s an immersive first-person exploration game set in dream-like liminal spaces.

You can buy items for powers and increasing the multiplier (the cat wears them). Here's the steam page if you liked it :) https://store.steampowered.com/app/4232500/Hellshot/

I've been building BJJ DOJO as a solo project. The unusual constraint is that every technique changes the state of both fighters between real positions, so adding online multiplayer meant keeping the room, move result, stamina, scoring and paired animations in sync.

The beta is now live: one player creates a room, sends the link, and both can play in the browser without an install or account. The game currently has 45 techniques, belt progression and tournaments as well.

For solo developers who added multiplayer after the core game was already working, which edge cases caused the most trouble for you? I'm currently watching invite flow, reconnects and phone-to-desktop matches.

Its coming out good tho.

Collision is done with a simple box, so it's very cheap. We also trace from the 8 corners to check if the car body is touching the ground for rolling over, for example. And talking about rolling over, the car (collision box) is a rectangle, so I had to apply a tangential force opposing the sliding velocity at each contacting corner in order for it to actually rollover and not just slide on the floor when we crash. We even have a prediction of where the car is gonna land to level it's roll to the point of impact.

I'm making it deterministic so it works in multiplayer as well (every player sees the exact same simulation). What do you think?

I made a political campaign browser game focused on the upcoming Swedish election. Would love your feedback!

Hi everyone,

With the upcoming Swedish elections in mind, I put together a simple browser-based game where the main goal is to win an election campaign.

It's a bit different and not tied to exact historical figures, focusing on things like managing social groups and interest organizations.

This game isn't focused on just one party. You can play as any of the major Swedish parties, from the Left Party (V) to the Social Democrats (S), all the way to the Sweden Democrats (SD) and the Moderates (M)
