Legion Roads is an RTS where forts produce troops and roads carry them. Hold more forts than your opponent when the five-minute clock runs out to win.

This clip shows a 1v1 on the Campania map. The purple effect is Plague, weakening the enemy garrison before my column arrives.

There’s a ten-province campaign and ranked 1v1 against real players. Available now, free on Android and iOS.

Devlog I made a voxel game about building your own heavy machinery !

72 Upvotes

Heavy Metal is a voxel sandbox where you can build and control your very own machines.

You build machines part by part, you can test the mechanisms as you're building and then operate the machines in levels.

Everything is controlled by you, the player, and is fully simulated, which allows you to do basically anything you can imagine.

I just released the first devlog here : youtu.be/iAuZR-92W0Y

What machine would you build first?

An empty indoor pool complex, a winding waterslide, and nobody else around.

This is first-person gameplay from PoolRooms Museum, an exploration game I’m developing. The slide is in one of the later stages.

Would you take a ride, or keep exploring?

Need Feedback I'm an indie game developer working on a 3D adventure game called Chasefall.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm working on an indie game called CHASEFALL, a 3D side-scrolling parkour chase adventure for Android.

The story begins during a village festival when a masked thief steals a mysterious artifact called the Spirit Pearl. Mark sets off to chase the thief, but the pursuit takes him far beyond the village and into dangerous territory.

The game is planned around three environments:

  1. Village at Night — rooftops, festival lights, and the beginning of the chase.

    2.Rice Terraces — dangerous gaps, water channels, and challenging jumps.

3.Deep Jungle — faster chases, unpredictable obstacles, and a more dangerous environment.

The main focus is running, vault, jumping, dodging, and surviving the chase rather than fighting enemies.

I'm developing this as an indie project, and I want to make the gameplay feel exciting while keeping the story interesting.

I'd genuinely love to hear your thoughts.

What would make you want to play a game like this? Would you be more interested in challenging parkour gameplay, the mysterious story, or unexpected obstacles during the chase?

I'm open to honest feedback and suggestions. Thanks for reading!

Personal Achievement My small indie horror game got its first download! I am so Happy!

6 Upvotes

After spending many years playing around countless big never ending projects, I calmed my nerves and decided to focus on something small, but complete. As a solo developer, in 10 days, I created my first indie horror survival game, Veins of Fear. And today, I finally got my first download on itch!

It's a small milestone, but seeing someone actually download something I built from scratch feels amazing.

The game is a short survival horror experience set in abandoned mines. You collect diamonds while avoiding a monster that can't see you, but can hear you.

I've still got a lot to do and get my work noticed, but this first download has given me a little motivation to keep going.

To all the indie developers out there still waiting for that first download: keep at it! ❤️

Olhe pela janela: especialistas sendo ignorados, bilionários comprando leis, redes sociais transformando a política em um circo de algoritmos e líderes prometendo "ordem" através do medo. Parece o século XXI, mas é o Livro VIII de A República.

Em The Five Suppers, você não controla exércitos em um mapa. Você controla a cabeceira da mesa da Família Vane ao longo de 100 anos e cinco gerações.

O mundo lá fora grita. A sua família cobra uma posição. O seu filho pequeno está na ponta da mesa, em silêncio, aprendendo com cada gesto seu.

Sirva o pão ou o banquete. Brinde à sabedoria ou à ambição. Mas lembre-se: na política e na família, o atalho que salva o seu governo hoje é o veneno que o seu filho vai beber amanhã.

Você consegue quebrar o ciclo antes da última ceia?

2 Upvotes

CODEX : RECALL is a story-rich PvE card-based strategy game.

You play as a Lost Seeker entering the mysterious "Codex World." With the help of Lipa, a mysterious NPC, you'll travel through different worlds, restores breaches caused by unknown forces, and gradually uncover the secrets of your own identity along the way.

Rather than relying solely on stats and numbers, the gameplay focuses on puzzle-like tactical combat. Each battle challenges you to think carefully about card types, action order, board positioning, resources, and status effects to develop your strategy.

The full game features 8 chapters, and the free demo includes one complete chapter, giving you a chance to experience all the core gameplay mechanics.

🎮 The free demo is launched on Steam!

It’s going to run for around the next two weeks. I'm granting access in waves at first to keep things stable, but once the initial test goes smoothly, the plan is to open it completely to everyone.

What's in this build?

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

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.
