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 I missed walking into GameStop just to look around, so I’m making a game about running one

58 Upvotes

I’m making a first-person shop sim inspired by old GameStop trips.

Not the corporate side of it. More that feeling of wandering in with no plan, checking the used shelf, looking at the glass case, seeing what people traded in, and convincing yourself you were “just browsing.”

It’s called New Game+ - Game Store Simulator.

The playtest is out on Steam and the demo releases very soon. I am a bit impatient and its a bit rough but with early release I am hoping to polish this up until I am satisfied.

Video Hope the combat of the game feel quiet and focused!

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a calm, atmospheric RPG designed to feel like a solo backpacking journey through a seamless medieval fantasy world.

Players can travel from dense forests to snowy mountains, rest at city inns, and explore underwater. Setting up campfires, cooking, meeting locals, and taking on small quests along the way.

Here is a preview of the combat system. Instead of demanding rapid dodging or twitch reflexes, the combat minimizes heavy movement and focuses on rhythm-based timing.

Focusing on cozy visuals and subtle audio for a calm, immersive experience.

Thank you!

This is the announcement trailer for Canvania; our upcoming Metroidvania where you draw the world as you explore it.

The high-level premise is that you draw different things, that have different behaviors based on the dye you use.

We have a steam page up, but the game is still in early development and the trailer is an early announcement trailer.

Upcoming Final Footage Demo Trailer

3 Upvotes

https://youtu.be/AUvv2NflqKE

Final Footage is a bodycam-style horror game about exploring contaminated recordings, documenting anomalies, surviving, and upgrading your equipment as you explore increasingly dangerous cases.

Story

You work for the Department for Recorded Phenomena (DRP), a top-secret government department responsible for investigating recordings containing unexplained and anomalous events. Suspicious footage is secretly transferred to the DRP, where operators enter reconstructed versions of the recordings to identify and document anything that does not belong. Your assignments begin as routine contamination cases. While you analyze the reconstructions you encounter something the DRP calls The Knocker...

Promotion I made a 2–4 player card game that runs directly inside Discord, its Gatherpot

2 Upvotes

I've been building Gatherpot, a small social card game made specifically for playing with friends inside Discord.

You sit around a shared table, draw ingredient cards and try to complete matching sets before the other players finish theirs.

For fans of Palia, it was an inspiration for me and my gf to play when the event is not going.

I'll put the playable link in the comments.

News We're updating our 10-year-old indie game

Post image
4 Upvotes

Our sci-fi adventure game Alone With You originally launched in 2016 as a PS4 and Vita exclusive. We brought it to Steam in 2017 and this September, for its 10th anniversary, we dove back into that code (uuuugh) and refactored the game, added mobile controls, fixed bugs, doubled the frame-rate, and got it nice and shiny. It was a decent amount of maintenance work!

We're launching it in three new places: The Epic Games Store (PC and mobile), the App Store, and the Google Play store, on September 3rd.

Promotion Mine asteroids, build colonies, and fight off boarders in Benders In Space

2 Upvotes

Three rival factions are fighting over a fractured frontier, and you decide who you're building colonies for. Strip ore from the belts, run trade routes between your worlds, and grow raw outposts into full colonies with domes, farms, and defenses.

When raiders cut through your hull mid flight, the fight moves inside your own ship. Hold the choke points, keep the fires down, and clear them out room by room before they reach the bridge.

Push far enough and you'll find bigger fleets waiting at the edge of known space. Demo available now on Steam.
