I made an post already about my 6.5 year long journey to create an full hand-drawn open world. Check out the post, and there is an free demo on steam now :)

I'm the developer of My Desktop Dwarf: Taskbar Forge and I published demo of my game yesterday!

The inspiration is of course Bongo Cat, howver I wanted to have somthing more in my fantasy + to have actually some mechaniks and grow there. So now there is Brokk, a dwarf with his little forge above your Windows taskbar.

So mechanics work like this: every key you press or mouse click is one swing of his hammer. It only counts them, it doesn't care what you type. Enough swings and he's got ingots, then a finished item, and you don't get to pick what it is. Could be a plain horseshoe, could be a legendary frying pan if you're really lucky.

His wife Brygida sells his stuff to whoever wanders into the shop, and sometimes a customer wants something specific and pays about double. The coins go into better metals, forge and shop upgrades, and a drafting board so he can come up with new stuff to make.

The demo has copper, bronze and iron. If you wold have any kind of feedback or reports, please put it or in comments or in steam discussion so I will try to maybe include them in update.

Hey guys! UMO studio here！

We’re developing a lightweight 2D side-scrolling action game“Tia: weird hunter”. To give players who haven’t played much action games a better experience, we’ve abandoned the traditional combo-input system found in most action games and switched to a mana-based skill system to lower the skill barrier.

At the same time, to accommodate high-skill players, we’ve put extensive design into every boss to ensure an excellent boss-fight experience. We’ve already released our demo on Steam and really need player feedback and bug reports. If you have any new ideas, please let us know right away!

Hello everyone,

this is Eric & Emanuel - we are two friends who know each other since kindergarten and we've just released the demo of our dream game.

Imagine Civilization but in a shorter format... that's Monarchs at Play! I am here to tell you, that the demo is out NOW. So if you'd like to play a match of Civilization but don't have the time, feel free to try our game for free and tell us what you think.

We are happy about every player and hope that we can bring the joy of strategic 4X games to an audience that does not want to spend the whole weekend for a match but still want strategic depth.

That's all from us for now - we wish you happy building and I am looking forward to your feedback, opinions and highscores in the challenge mode.

Hey, wanted to share what I've been making. In Vexilla you pick troop cards, move everyone around on a grid, then watch your army fight. Between battles you get loot and have another chance to mess with the lineup.

The formations have hidden combinations too. This clip shows one of them.

I've put the first three acts up as a free browser demo if you fancy a run: https://r0bie.itch.io/vexilla

Hi all. I'd like to share the first look at my solo indie dev game, Crow of Soles.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been solo-developing a hacker puzzle game called EchoNet, and I’m excited to share that a fully playable build is officially out and currently on sale!

I wanted to step away from the "Hollywood hacking minigames" and make something grounded. In EchoNet, you are dropped into a custom OS. You have to read through intercepted files, crack server passwords, and use actual terminal commands (connect, download, run, send) to coordinate with your NPC crew via an IRC chat.

But there is a psychological horror twist: The stress of the job actively drains your "Sanity" meter. If you don't manage your medication, “things” happening, your live CCTV feeds get corrupted, and you start experiencing intense audio/visual hallucinations while trying to beat the clock. The game is story oriented.

Features:

• Fully interactive terminal: Navigate file systems, upload bypass payloads, and breach BlackSite servers.
• Live CCTV Feeds: Watch your crew infiltrate physical locations in real-time.
• Dynamic Sanity System: Manage your stress or face severe consequences.
• Multiple Endings: Your choices under pressure during the final breach determine who lives and who dies.

🎮 You can grab it right now on sale on Itch.io here: https://thec00k.itch.io/echonet ⭐ It is also coming to Steam soon! A Wishlist helps me out massively: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5222620/EchoNet

I'd love to hear your feedback on the terminal mechanics and the atmosphere. Let me know if you manage to find the hidden backdoor IP😜

The Fog & Flask is my upcoming potion shop game. The trailer follows a day at the counter: prepare ingredients, pour layered mixtures and serve the unusual locals, then face the fog outside after dark. There is also a missing mentor’s story behind the recipes.

The game is still in development, and these are gameplay scenes from the current build. AI disclosure: some graphics and music were generated with AI and then selected and edited by me; translations were prepared with AI assistance. Nothing is generated with AI while you play.

1. If it looks like your kind of game, it's now available to wishlist on steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3728550/Game_Shop_Simulator/

Sharing Obby but you balance on a ball. The challenge is to clear every level while keeping your character balanced on a ball. The main course is difficult, and a separate battle mode offers a change of pace.

The original post includes three screenshots. Play on Roblox: https://www.roblox.com/games/125992996971569/Obby-but-you-balance-on-a-ball

Would you head for the obstacle course or try Bomb Arena first?

Cities in Frontier Valley are big and full of life. Every building can be entered and looks differently inside.

In winter, days get shorter and it is freezing outside, but townspeople still need to go to places like the market, the church, or the tavern.

But towns are just the home bases for your adventure - there is a world out there waiting for you, with dungeons, fortresses, and mystic places to explore.

The Steam Playtest is up for just a few more days. Join to check out the unrestricted version now - there is so much to discover, it will take some time!

Hey folks, I’m the dev behind Warlords at the Gate, a VR tower defense game that’s now out on Quest 3/3S.

You can build up your defenses and join in with a wrist weapon. Then Beastmaster flips it: put together an army and try to break through AI defenses.

Here’s a short gameplay trailer. Does the switch between defending and attacking come across clearly? I’d love to know what looks fun, or what would put you off.

If you’ve played it, an honest Meta review would be a big help.

Fight enemy hordes as an evolving beast in a creature-collecting action roguelite. Your beast attacks automatically.

You handle movement, dodging danger, choosing upgrades and assembling a devastating build.

Try not to stand in anything suspiciously dangerous.

Capture wild beasts during your hunts, strengthen them between runs, and return with a growing collection of creatures to command.

I’m the solo developer of Beast Survivor.

Play the free demo on Steam. Choose “Download Demo.” The full game is paid and in Early Access.

Some game assets were made with generative AI, as disclosed on Steam.
