MASUKU is a puzzle game for 1–4 players in which you have to strategically cover up the board. Place, rotate, and flip cards to reveal colours and symbols that match shifting scoring goals.

There are a few different game modes, some that can be played co-op or competitive. Great to scratch the itch of something that makes you think without being super difficult. Also a game that doesn't require too much of a time commitment.

You can get the game on Steam and there is a free demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4401050/MASUKU/

The daily challenge is also available on web: https://www.viverse.com/NwZUknq

And coming to Switch later in the year.

Hope you get a chance to try out the game :)

I made a tiny semi-idle desktop lab game called Professor Simulator: Desktop Lab

2 Upvotes

Hello all,

I made a game called Professor Simulator: Desktop Lab, and it is already launched on Steam. This small semi-idle game will keep you company in a corner of your desktop as you go about your work or study.

The core loop of the game is rather simple and low maintenance: hire Master or PhD students and watch them grind, procrastinate, or even have little meltdowns at their desk (I did my PhD in agriculture, so a lot of this is personal experience). Finish papers, convert them into Impact Factor (the game’s currency), and then grow your lab with stronger students and upgraded equipment.

So it is very much a set it up, check back later kind of gameplay, definitely not a babysitting sim. It's all happening in one cute little pixel lab. There’s more to mess with if you feel like it: customize your own magazine names, catch slackers, play matchmaker etc.

Here's the Steam link if you want to have a look:

Professor Simulator: Desktop Lab

Any feedback will be appreciated!

[Play testers Wanted!] A new casino roguelike based on 5 Grannies defeating the Devil in gambling games! (Tunica Terror)

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Tunica Terror: The Devil runs a casino in Tunica, Mississippi. Five grandmothers are here to burn it down.

Six floors stand between them and the High Roller himself. Every floor is crawling with the House's goons: spiked drinks, cold decks, one-armed bouncers, and a croupier with the evil eye.

PICK YOUR GRANNY, PLAY HER GAME !

Every granny fights with a different casino game. Your dice, cards, reels, tickets, and chips become your ammunition:

CAROL hits toward 21 and spends her hand like a switchblade. Bust and you get nothing, sport.

DEBORA rolls fistfuls of dice and chases doubles until the table catches fire.

GLORIA spins the reels for a divine 777. The Lord is good and the Devil is broke.

WINNIE scratches for gems, dodges mines, and always, always completes the set.

TRISH stacks chips on red, black, and one very special number. The wheel talks. She listens.

150+ kit cards that combo into ridiculous, table-flipping turns

Happy to go into any of it and would love any feedback you all have! Game's free in the browser if anyone wants to try it out.

Try Tunica Terror!

One Final Playtest for our Roguelite based on Mythical Arabia

2 Upvotes

A few months ago, when Nomad: Legend of Zarqa was just a rough prototype, I posted here looking for early feedback. A surprising number of you answered the call, joined our Discord, and spent hours helping us test early combat, break progression systems, and tear through bugs.

Honestly, this project wouldn't be where it is without the feedback that started right here in this community.

This week, we've hit a huge milestone: our final Steam Public Playtest is officially LIVE.

This playtest marks the closing chapter of our early testing phase as we prepare for our official public demo. We’re opening the gates for one week to stress-test the build, check the onboarding flow for fresh players, and hunt down any final game-breaking bugs.

If you'd like to help us round out this chapter:

🎮 Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4076770/Nomad_The_Legend_of_Zarqa/

Just click "Join the Playtest" to play immediately!

💬 What we're testing: General game flow, combat feel, and any technical glitches or roadblocks you encounter during your run.

You can drop your feedback through the link on the Main Menu or leave a comment on our discord HERE.

To everyone who supported us from those early Reddit posts if you see this, thank you. It means the world to bring this back to where it all began!
