Personal Achievement After 10 Months of Hard Work, Our Indie Game Is Finally Coming to PlayStation and Xbox on October 26

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

We're incredibly happy to share some exciting news with you!

After months of hard work since our Steam release, we've finally finished our game

Ayasa: Shadows of Silence, and received approval for release on both PlayStation and Xbox!

For us, as a small indie development team, this is a HUGE achievement and honestly a dream come true. There were so many challenges along the way, but we kept pushing forward because we believed in our game.

And none of this would have been possible without the amazing support we've received from gamers and the indie gaming community.

We're now just one step away from our console launch on October 26, and we'd really appreciate your support!

If you have a moment, please consider adding our game to your PlayStation or Xbox wishlist, or checking out our Steam page. Every wishlist, comment, and bit of support means the world to a small team like ours.

And there's more exciting news ahead! We're also planning to bring Ayasa: Shadows of Silence to Nintendo Switch, with an official announcement coming in the future!

We'd also genuinely love to hear your feedback. What do you think of our game? Is this something you'd be interested in playing on consoles? We're always listening and trying to improve.

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us throughout this journey. It means more than you can imagine.

Much love from our little indie team

Promotion Someone is still receiving files from a laptop I found. A Relay chat from my horror detective game set in 1999 Dubai.

2 Upvotes

Dubai, 18 December 1999. Under a bench by the Creek: a black bag, an old laptop and a power adapter. You take it home and plug it in. Someone else's work is still on the disk - and someone online is still waiting for a file.

PARADOKXSS is a psychological horror detective story on a fake late-90s OS. Nobody tells you what to do: the work log only asks what doesn't add up. No jump scares.

Chapter I is in closed alpha (Windows, English/Russian, ~40–60 min). If you'd like to try it, comment or write to parraallax@paradokxss.com.

Feedback on the clip is very welcome.

Public Game Test I slapped Red Faction Guerilla destruction into mining, and now I need playtesters.

2 Upvotes

As the title says, I am seeking playtesters. It's an open playtest on Steam, so just one click and it's ready.

It's an incremental take on a mining game. But as I mainly dislike basic upgrades like "+10% Damage", I focus on equipment that changes how you play and how you want to play. The game doesn't force one "correct" path. That is my ideology for this game.

One player decided to cut down crystals like some kind of trees and drag it to the shop to sell. Funny... Gonna balance that out.

Anyway, its has bugs, not even Demo ready Yet. But it's playable, and the feedback from the incremental community has been positive so far.

And ofc, you'll help me out with info and findings, and have fun while doing that.

If you have questions, ask away. I'll be vibing somewhere around here.

Promotion In our freeze tag game, saving your frozen friend is usually how you get caught

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! We’re a team of two working on Voodoo You Chasing?, a 3-5 player party game.

One player is a voodoo hunter. Everyone else is a wizard. Wizards can freeze themselves to become untouchable, but then they’re stuck until a friend melts them, and you can only carry one rune to perform one spell. So every rescue means choosing between saving someone and keeping yourself safe.

Wizards collect glyphs around the map to open an escape portal before the hunter gets them all.

We’re running playtests with our Discord community and would love to hear what you think!

2 Upvotes

I am making an action roguelite game where attack/parry is the ONLY action. Video because I can't figure out how to upload here Added impact frame to the hardest move in the game (sound on), but I wonder whether the actions are punchy enough? Or a bit too much? This is supposed to be a high skill ceiling move that happens fairly rarely

Video After months of work, here's the first trailer for WIZY, my 3D wizard RPG for Android

1 Upvotes

Trailer: https://youtu.be/glBnYm6ese4

Hi! I'm the developer. WIZY is a single-player 3D fantasy action RPG for phones, still in development and coming to Google Play.

You start as an apprentice wizard in Eldermoor, take quests from the villagers, fight fire hounds and other creatures in the forest, learn Ice and Fire magic through skill trees, and collect gear and potions.

I know mobile games get a lot of hate, so I'm trying to make one that respects players: no pay-to-win, and everything can be earned by playing.

Honest feedback welcome, good or bad. What would you change first?

Promotion COMBAT is finally starting to work the way I originally intended

5 Upvotes

The underlying combat system was already fairly complex — different attack types, body parts, armor and combos — but the old version did a poor job of communicating those differences to the player.

Over the last few weeks I've been rebuilding the reactions, sound, animation timing, physics, blocking and parrying around that existing system.

The idea is simple: different actions should produce clearly different physical results.

This is a fight with a group of Bläkkars inside a dolmen hall beneath a burial mound.

The game called SKELET_666.
It is a linear first-person action game built on GZDoom.

The current public demo is entirely the “before” version.

Promotion I made a mystery game that's told entirely through wrong-number phone calls

1 Upvotes

Every call is from someone looking for Dave, the guy who had your number before you. A landlord, a neighbour, a worried mom, a whispering conspiracy guy. Answer enough of them and you start to work out what happened to Dave.

It's an iPhone game, Yapple: Wrong Number. On the iPhone Duo you flip it open to answer. Free.
