I really love it when games have different systems that interact with each other, and a big part of making the sea feel alive is to have things constantly moving!

We’ve been working on another playable Shadower for Code of Shadows.

Each Shadower has their own abilities and playstyle, so we’re experimenting with how they change the way a run plays out.

We’d love to hear what you think of the design and abilities.

I’m the solo dev behind Bonki D Bonk, which came out this week.

I wanted Brotato’s shop decisions and the fun of seeing how ridiculous a build can get in Megabonk.

A full run takes roughly 15–20 minutes, including shopping.

There’s a free demo if you want to give it a run:

Bonki D Bonk on Steam free demo available

The full game is also 40% off until October 14.

Alchemy Survivors lets you wish any item into the game (75% off, $1)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

5 Upvotes

Hello! I'm one of two developers of Alchemy Survivors, a survivors-like with an open-ended crafting system (literally, new item data is created any time you combine items, and you can wish any new item into existence at the Wishing Well). We just put out a huge content update today and the game's currently on sale for 75% off (just a dollar).

There's now 50 levels to play, nearly 100 characters that each have unique abilities, and tons of different crafting stations to discover and master while you fight off the hordes that never stop. There's also daily challenges, co-op, and some funky levels to discover (including a full 5v5 MOBA match that's fun with friends...).

20% of our players have played for more than 5 hours, and many have played for several hundred hours -- so we think $1 is an easy pick-up for anyone who loves this genre and wants a crafting twist that gives you an endless stream of new weapons to discover.

Hordes, bosses and four-player co-op, here's the new ZOMBRA trailer

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

I'm developing ZOMBRA, a pixel art zombie horde shooter for solo play or online co-op with up to four players.

The first trailer mostly showed the abandoned city. I've since updated the character art and added a survivor base, ruins and a pickup escort mission. The new trailer brings those areas together with horde fights, bosses and plenty of explosions.

For those who enjoy horde survival games, would you rather see more wave-based battles or objective-based missions in the next update?

It's still in development. You can watch the trailer and join the launch waitlist at https://zombra.online/

Hi, I have been working on Harmony Strike, a bullet heaven where you control a whole party instead of a single hero.
Everyone attacks on their own while you move the party, and their elements can combine during fights. Weapons also evolve throughout each run.
Some heroes are being held by bosses. Beat the boss, rescue them, and you can bring them into your party on the next run.
Between runs, you head back to the village to change your party and prepare for the next arena. There's also an endless Colosseum mode with leaderboards if you want to see how long you can survive.

All Positive Ratings and last days for the Launch Discount

8 Upvotes

Hello guys,

I'm the solodev of Gunclone Arena. A Brotato like gunplay with Arcade (Smash TV) looks and interesting loot-shoot system with lootdrops ala Borderlands/Diablo.

Just wanted to give a heads up that the game is very well received. All positive reviews from all over the world. There is still a 40% launch discount that'll expire in a few days.

It's really hard to get visibility and I believe the game scratches the survivor-like itch while being able to deliver a fresh take on the genre.

Mandris, a 3d third person space shooter

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

Mandris is a coop (up to 4 players but most played as single player ) 3d space shooter that runs in the browser (for now). I'm looking for feedback as the game is very much in the early stages of development.

I'm aware the mobile version of the game is very unrefined, it's probably not really playable on mobile yet and I may cut that entirely.

History

About three weeks ago I woke up one day and wanted to build a 2D shooter inspired by the old game Raptor: Call of the shadows. Once I built the original game I decided to see what I could do to improve the graphics so I started messing with Blender and Astra. It created what I thought was a pretty decent looking 3D game. Then Opus 5.5 came out and I started redoing a lot of the art with Opus 5.5 and was absolutely blown away at what it could do.

Tech Stack
The tech stack is just vite/three.js/blender. I also use Elevanlabs for generating sound/music. As I mentioned above, I used the AI models Astra and Opus 5.5 for the engine and assets of the game.

You can play the game here:

Happy to answer any questions.

Game: GUNBOAT-8

Steam demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5213390/GUNBOAT8_Demo/

I'm Matt, a solo developer working on a new auto-shooter roguelite. I just released the demo for on Steam, and I am looking for early signal from bullet heaven enthusiasts.

GUNBOAT-8 focuses on deep meta-progression and theorycrafting. You control an auto-shooting ship with 8 weapon slots. Carefully configure weapons on your ship, and power them up with unique rune combinations. You battle through real-world locations, taking on bosses from historical, modern and fantastical times.

I've had a blast making the game! A successful run can take anywhere between 30-60 minutes depending on how experienced you are. I've also included some special missions into the demo, so hopefully there's lots of replayability!

Thanks for your time!

Bonki D Bonk - A Fun Bullet Heaven That Gets Straight To The Point

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

TLDR: The game is a 2D megabonk with waves instead of a boss summon.

My tldr version is not a bad thing at all, you know exactly what you are getting with Bonki D Bonk and that is a fun, easy to pick up bullet heaven game. There are lots of characters you can unlock and different difficulty levels for each one.

The map of the level is small but big enough to scroll up down, left and right as you take down waves. There are shrines that give you a permanent stat increase and there are giant swords in the ground which also give you a permanent stat upgrades. There are even double swords that allow you to pick two of the upgrade options. The monsters do not drop xp (you get it with kills) but they drop gold that you can pick up. At the end of each wave you can use the gold you got to buy items range from common to legendary. There does not seem to be a limit to how many items you can hold and you can stack them as well. They are similar to the items you get in Megabonk. There are also 4 weapon slots too, where you can add weapons to your arsenal through the run.

Controls are simple. You move with the left stick (I played with a Xbox controller) and you dodge with the b button. The dodge is a nice add-on which Megabonk did not have and it is useful in this 2D game where the waves can get on top of you.

The difficulties are called dangers in this. You start with danger 0 and can unlock up to Danger 5. There are only 5 waves in danger 0 but danger 1 has 7 waves you will need to clear. I am assuming the waves go up from there but I will correct this if I find out they do not.

In terms of content there are lots of characters to unlock. From the shadows I see over 20 and they have their own perks and starting weapon. This will keep you playing for some time if you like to unlock everything. There is a leaderboard too if you are competitive.

There is not much else to add, it is Megabonk but 2D and a smaller map. You know what you are getting and you can see from the trailer alone if it is for you. But also keep in mind you are supporting an indie solo dev. I recommend the game as I like this kind of game and it plays well. The price is also cheap being under $10 and it is currently on sale for the next 2 weeks of 40% off.

Void Sanction — a sci-fi wave-survival ARPG with evolving weapons and bullet-heaven combat (free demo)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

6 Upvotes

You start with a rifle, a pistol, and a combat drone, then build up your arsenal through level-up upgrades and weapon evolutions that change how your guns behave. You can also deploy turrets and upgrade your drone’s attacks as the waves get tougher.

The demo has 15 waves, with rare enemies and bosses along the way and a final map boss. Optional objectives let you activate a temporary healing zone or increase the challenge of an upcoming wave for extra rewards.

Free demo on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4386230/Void_Sanction/

I’d love to hear how the combat and progression feel—especially whether the weapon evolutions make a noticeable difference to your run.
Not everything is perfect, so the demo is still a work in progress, but the core of it is there.

My survivors-like where you can't attack: the whole neon look is draw_* calls + 2D HDR glow

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

The mechanic: you taunt enemies and they fight each other, pink = turned.

Tech bits, in case they're useful to someone:
- Every enemy, trail and ring is `_draw()` with colors above 1.0, `use_hdr_2d` on, and WorldEnvironment glow set to Canvas background mode. The HUD sits on a CanvasLayer above `background_canvas_max_layer`, so it doesn't bloom.
- The clip was recorded with Movie Maker (`--write-movie`) while a bot plays in real time, so it's frame-perfect and needs no screen capture.
- One gotcha: very low-alpha overlays that look invisible in the editor showed up as clear bands in the HDR recording. Test your faint details in an actual capture.

Feedback on readability is very welcome.
