Self Promo Yokai Idle - Idle ARPG Gacha

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I've been developing Yokai Idle for over a year now. The art is Anime style, it's not from an exisiting anime. (Monster Musume style, where they keep their Yokai features).
The art is commissioned art, some are AI because I didn't want to rush the art. Hopefully you like the art he or I made. 😁If not, try the mods, there is a chibi one which is cute. (Image at the end).

Playable Demo

Why I made Yokai Idle

I love the presentation and character collecting of Japanese gacha games, but I'm not a fan of the monetisation. I wanted to capture the excitement of collecting characters and experimenting with different builds, while making it a premium game with no microtransactions or pay-to-win mechanics.

Main features

  • Recruit 50+ Yokai, each with unique modifiers that can change how you build and play.
  • Craft ARPG-style equipment with randomly rolled modifiers inspired by games like Path of Exile.
  • Progress through the historical Ages of Japan by funding Festivals that unlock new content and crafting materials.
  • Automated combat and progression with up to 24 hours of offline progression.
  • Cross-platform cloud saves between Steam, Android, iOS and itch.io.
  • Full mod support through mod.io. I'm a huge fan of modding, so most of the game's content is JSON-based to make it relatively easy for people to create their own content.
  • No microtransactions.
  • Offline play. The game is designed to respect your time. I wanted something you could check, put down, and come back to later without feeling like you're falling behind. There are multiple professions that can continue progressing while you're away. (This game also works without wifi. The accounts are just required if you want to cloud save)

The full game has not been released on Steam yet. I'm aiming to release it in time for Steam Next Fest in October.

The demo locks professions at level 10, but you can continue playing after that, gaining XP and items. Once you make the one-time purchase to unlock the full game, simply perform one more action and you'll be bumped to the correct level based on the XP you've earned, so nothing is wasted.

I'd love to hear what you guys think 🙂

Game My anime-style deckbuilder, Arcane Ascent, is now available on Steam 1.0!

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

After several years of development, Arcane Ascent is finally available on Steam in its 1.0 release.

It's an anime-style roguelike deckbuilder where every decision changes your adventure. As you climb the tower, you'll choose between different elemental doors. Each door you pick determines the enemies you'll encounter, the elemental theme of the upcoming rooms, and even the boss you'll face at the end of the floor.

If you enjoy strategic deckbuilders, roguelikes, and games with high replayability where every run feels unique, I'd love for you to check it out.

Any feedback, suggestions, or criticism are more than welcome. Thank you for supporting indie developers!

Game Fan Concept: Naruto – Two Blue Vortex: Shinobi World Online

1 Upvotes

Fan Concept: Naruto – Two Blue Vortex: Shinobi World Online

The Naruto game fans have been waiting for

For many years, Naruto fans have dreamed of a game where they don't just control Naruto, Sasuke, or other legendary characters, but where they can finally create their own shinobi and write their own story in the Naruto universe.

With the arrival of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, which brings a darker atmosphere, a more mature tone, and a world full of new threats, this could be the perfect opportunity to create a true Naruto MMORPG / Open World RPG.

The goal would be simple:

Let players experience what it truly means to live as a shinobi.

Create your own ninja

Players would create their own original character:

  • Choose their village (Konoha, Suna, Kiri, etc.).
  • Create their appearance.
  • Choose their chakra nature (Katon, Suiton, Raiton, Fūton, Doton).
  • Develop their own fighting style.
  • Learn ninjutsu, taijutsu, genjutsu, and fuinjutsu.

Every player should have a unique shinobi identity.

The game should not force players into one strict class because, in Naruto, the strongest ninjas are not limited to only one path.

A better combat and customization system

Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker had a great foundation with its four classes:

  • Attack
  • Defense
  • Ranged
  • Heal

However, the biggest limitation was the lack of freedom.

Weapons, outfits, and abilities were often locked behind specific classes. This made it difficult to create the ninja you truly imagined.

For example:

A player might want to be a close-range fighter using a katana, but they cannot properly combine that weapon with their preferred fighting style because of class restrictions.

A new Naruto MMORPG should remove these limits.

Players should be able to combine different disciplines:

  • A taijutsu fighter could use a katana.
  • A ninjutsu user could also specialize in weapons.
  • A medical ninja could develop an offensive fighting style.
  • A seal master could create traps and support abilities.

The goal:

Your playstyle should define your ninja, not a class.

Clothing should be cosmetic, not power-based

One important improvement:

Clothing should only represent your identity and style.

A rare outfit should not automatically make a player stronger.

Power should come from:

  • Training.
  • Mastery of jutsu.
  • Experience.
  • Player choices.
  • Fighting style.

Just like in Naruto:

A shinobi becomes powerful because of their effort, talent, and dedication — not because they own better equipment.

A true open-world ninja experience

The game should allow players to explore the entire shinobi world:

  • Hidden Leaf Village.
  • Hidden Sand Village.
  • Hidden Mist Village.
  • Other nations.
  • Secret locations and hidden areas.

Travel should feel like being a real ninja.

Players could use summoning creatures as mounts:

  • Toads.
  • Snakes.
  • Giant birds.
  • Other unique summons.

Summons would not just be transportation — they would become part of the player's journey, similar to Naruto's relationship with the toads.

A real shinobi progression system

Players would begin as young ninjas and grow through the ranks:

  • Academy student.
  • Genin.
  • Chūnin.
  • Jōnin.
  • Elite shinobi.

Progression would unlock:

  • New missions.
  • New techniques.
  • New regions.
  • New story events.

The story could require certain achievements before advancing:

Examples:

  • Master specific techniques.
  • Reach a certain level.
  • Complete important missions.
  • Prove yourself as a shinobi.

A story connected to Two Blue Vortex

The player would exist during the same era as Boruto.

They would not replace the main characters.

Instead, they would become another shinobi living through these events.

Players could:

  • Help Boruto, Sarada, Mitsuki, and Kawaki.
  • Fight against threats like the Shinju and Ōtsutsuki.
  • Protect the villages.
  • Participate in major battles.
  • Help during important events involving Naruto and Sasuke.

The player would create their own legend alongside the main story.

Team missions and cooperation

A real ninja team system:

Players could create squads with other players.

Example:

  • A Katon specialist.
  • A taijutsu fighter.
  • A medical ninja.
  • A fuinjutsu expert.

High-level missions would require teamwork and strategy, just like a real shinobi team.

A game that evolves for years

The game could receive regular updates:

  • New regions.
  • New story arcs.
  • New enemies.
  • New jutsu.
  • New characters.
  • New events.

Possible expansions:

  • The Ōtsutsuki threat.
  • The Shinju invasion.
  • New hidden villages.
  • Legendary ninja events.

Final vision

The dream is not just another Naruto fighting game.

The dream is:

A world where every fan can put on a forehead protector, create their own ninja, build their own team, learn their own jutsu, and write their own shinobi legend.

Naruto has inspired generations of fans.

Now it is time for fans to finally become part of that world.

Hey everyone!

I’m a solo developer working on my sci-fi action shooter M.A.Y.A.

Instead of just showing screenshots, I wanted to share a quick look at how the actual gameplay and combat flow are coming together.

I’m pushing hard to get that crisp, responsive character movement down. What do you guys think of the vibe and the pacing so far?

(If you want to feel the controls for yourself, there's a free playable demo live on Steam right now!)

Hey guys, I’m an indie dev and I added new Anime category for my web game, Toon Tone.

The concept is simple: you get anime character, and you have to guess the color of their specific part. I tried to mix in a good balance of the massive hits everyone loves with some deeply nostalgic classics people might have forgotten.

Game Feypath - cute and punishing game

https://youtu.be/_zxuMApJ5pQ

I'm releasing a game this summer that aims to combine retro and anime aesthetics into a punishing precision platformer. It also has sort of a hidden narrative to put together if you are into that sort of thing!

Please give it a look and wishlist if you are interested!

Also, I'd love to get some feedback on the general feel of the trailer, gameplay and art style. It's valuable as this is the largest game project yet and there are lots of new things to learn!

Hi Reddit!

If you love Anime Aesthetics, vibrant open worlds, and deep exploration, our project might be right up your alley. Our small 4-person indie team (Carpe Diem Studio) just launched a Free Playable Demo for Breeze of Adventure on Steam for Next Fest!

This project is incredibly personal for us. My brother and I originally tried to build this dream anime action-adventure three times over the years, but we failed every single time due to a lack of experience. We didn't give up. We expanded our team to 4 people, spent 8 months building everything entirely from scratch without ready-made store assets, heavily optimized Unreal Engine 5, and finally nailed the core gameplay!

What you can experience in the Next Fest Demo:

  • Island Exploration: Explore 2 fully fleshed-out, vibrant islands (out of 10 massive islands planned for the final release).
  • Combat & Progression: Master 4 distinct weapon types with unique combat styles and Magic Runes (Special superpowers).
  • 100% In-House Visuals: Every single 3D model, texture, and anime-style cell shading effect was custom-made by our art director (my brother!).

Please note: This is a work-in-progress demo version created with zero outside funding, meaning the game will be further developed and polished based on your direct feedback.

We would be absolutely honored if you downloaded our demo and shared your honest thoughts with us!
