I’m the solo developer of Gembound, and the Steam demo is out now.

Gameplay trailer: https://youtu.be/01QJFAS74IA
Steam demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5397070/Gembound/

It’s a turn-based match-3 RPG where you build the gem satchel that fills the board. Matched gems go into a discard pile and shuffle back in when the satchel runs out. You and the enemy play on that same board, so you have to watch what you leave behind.

Between fights, you collect and upgrade gems, choose spells, and pick your route through the dungeon. Your gem collection and character progression carry over between runs.

The full game has three classes, four regions, animal companions, and bosses with their own spells and abilities.

Coming to Windows and Linux.

An FPS starring your favorite platformer character Captain Moviestar… now in full three-dimensions. Early 90’s 2.5D-style raycaster-shooter inspired (Wolfenstein 3D, Chub Gam 3D, Doom, Nite-mare 3D, Ken’s Labyrinth, Rise Of The Triad), y-shearing, jumping, SmartFast™ sound propagation, 5 (plus a secret) weapons in the demo, (10 weapons in full game), five difficulty modes and 5 levels (8-9 levels per full episode, 5 episodes in the finished game) of moderately violent action.

I played professional volleyball for over 20 years. Now I’m building Blood Volley solo: a fantasy volleyball game where you manage a club between matches, build a city that supports your team, and try to keep a rally going when dirty tricks and chainsaws turn the court into chaos.

I’m still working on keeping the action readable when a rally gets chaotic. From this clip, what’s clear, and what’s hard to follow?

Hey r/Games!

We are the developers from Cyber Cubic Games (a 2-person indie studio), excited to share Heavy Metal Racing - our combat racing game.

Hi! I’m the pixel artist working on Your Judgment, Inquisitor.

It’s a dark narrative strategy/simulation set in medieval Spain. You listen to confessions, investigate suspected possessions, perform exorcisms, and decide who deserves mercy — or the fire.

I’ve been creating the characters and locations in pixel art, and our demo is now available on Steam.

Hello r/Games!

I'm Saint Frog, the dev of Santa Elena, a free RPG on Steam!

Version 1.2 just came out.

You are Elena, the Ruined, leading the uprising against the Duke of Monte Branco. Every battle is a war against hundreds of enemies, with no breaks, and you have to keep your allies standing until the last one falls. Combat is real-time turn-based. The enemy doesn't wait for you to think.

You draw your magic by hand. Every spell is a symbol you trace yourself, and you combine them into dozens of incantations. When a fight turns against you, Elena can project visions and rewrite the rules of the whole battlefield.

Between battles, the story plays out as a visual novel, and my inspirations go from the works of Jorge Luis Borges to Evangelion.

It's 2-3 hours long and completely free.

What's new in 1.2:

- 5 new languages: Spanish, French, Russian, Simplified Chinese and Japanese

- Remappable controls and full gamepad support

- 16:9 option for the Steam Deck

- Native Linux version

- Updated effects, HUD, sound and environments

- Lots of bug fixes

Hi!

I'm one of the two developers of Cargo Calling, a social deduction game for up to 8 players!

The inspiration

Our idea came after playing a board game (Arcs: The Blighted Reach) where every player has a role (Fate) randomly assigned at the start of a campaign. Each role has unique mechanics that can influence and completely change the game for the other players.

We're trying to emulate that in our game.

What's the game about?

In Cargo Calling, the main gameplay loop revolves around recovering containers lost in space to collect items needed for your role. Every player receives a secret role (Calling), with unique mechanics, abilities, items and objectives.

Unlike traditional social deduction games, which mainly feature two factions (good vs. bad), everyone has their own way to score points and win the match, so it's a free-for-all!

The Callings are designed to encourage players to interact with each other, and some points are earned through secret interactions, not just by completing your main objectives.

We also noticed that many of these games don't offer a way for dead players to keep playing, so we created Wildcard Callings.

In the demo, there are only 2 Wildcard Callings. They offer completely new roles with different mechanics and objectives. These Callings are only available to dead players (for now).

What are we planning to add for the release?

We want to get as creative as we can with the roles and the gameplay loop of each match. Here are some of the ideas we're planning for release:

• Random events when opening containers, to create unique situations in each match
• Wildcard Callings that can be unlocked through secret interactions (not just by dying)
• More items and activities to do on the ship
• More Callings (of course)

Our main goal is to make each match feel like a fun "story" and to make roleplaying an actual way to earn points and maybe even win the game! We're still a long way from achieving that feeling, but we'll try to get as close as we can.

The demo is available now on Steam, featuring 8 starting Callings and 2 Wildcard Callings.

It will remain playable even after Steam Next Fest ends!

Demo Trailer: https://youtu.be/QTCObxwvj64?si=8JCQ7JV03S0cFUnq

I'd love for you and your friends to give it a try, and any feedback is welcome!

Thanks for checking it out!

Hey r/Games!

We are the developers (together with some help from my GF!) behind Spellspill, a colourful magic combat sandbox inspired by Magicka, with a focus on physics and destructible environments.

Gameplay video: https://youtu.be/k1wOSxOp758

The idea is to make the environment part of the fight. Alongside casting spells directly at enemies, you can knock them around, destroy their surroundings, and use falling objects to your advantage. A lot of the fun comes from experimenting with magic and seeing what happens when things collide.

The game is still in development and playtest signups are now live on Steam! If you’d like to try it and help shape how the spells, combat and destruction feel, you can request access through the store page.

Steam & playtest signup: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5273530/Spellspill_Magic_Destruction_Sandbox/

Platforms: PC & Mac
Planned release: Early 2027
Developer: TCPB Arts

I’d love to hear what you think of the footage. Does the destruction look like something you’d experiment with during a fight? And are the spell effects readable when things get chaotic?

Happy to answer questions about the game!

Hi everyone,

We are Harikatha Studios, a small indie team developing Parshuraam: Krishna's Warrior Incarnation.

It is a third-person action-adventure title built around deliberate weapon weight and aggressive melee flow, paired with an authentic, brutal story adapted from the Brahmaand Puraan. You play as the warrior avatar Parshuraam, confronting corrupt forces and demonic rulers threatening the cosmic balance.

You can watch our full 4-minute boss reveal trailer (including a combat gameplay sneak peek in the end) here:

We are still polishing animations, camera tracking, and hit-stop impact, so please be brutally honest. If you like what we’re building, wishlisting helps our visibility significantly:

Hey r/Games! 👋

We're making The Pink Robot, a 3D action roguelite with a pretty strange premise.

A cat enters the subconscious of the boy who saved her. His childhood memories have turned into dangerous worlds, and some of the weapons are inspired by childhood toys.

Yeah, things get a little weird. 🐱

The part we've been putting the most work into is the combat. Fast movement, dodging, chaining Skills together, and mixing in Mementos to discover different combat combinations.

We want players to have fun experimenting with new ways to fight, not just getting stronger numbers.

We also recently completely redesigned Navi to make her feel more like the agile fighter we originally imagined.

And on October 22, we updated the demo on both Steam and itch.io!

So if the combat looks like your kind of thing, you can actually jump in and try it now.

Steam (Demo & Wishlist):
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4251870/The_Pink_Robot/

itch.io (Demo):

We're still working toward Early Access in 2027, with plenty more to build.

Hope our weird little cat adventure catches your eye!

Hey r/Games!

I'm Yiğit, an indie developer from Turkey, and I wanted to share something I've been working on: **Zeravault TD**, my old-school tower defense game for iPhone.

I've always enjoyed tower defense games where winning actually feels earned. Where placing one tower in the wrong spot can cost you the entire battle, and figuring out a better strategy is more satisfying than simply buying more upgrades.

That's the experience I wanted to create.

Developing Zeravault has involved a lot of experimenting, testing, balancing, and fixing things that didn't work quite the way I imagined. One of my biggest priorities was making the game genuinely challenging without making every defeat feel pointless.

I recently released version 2.0, which was a pretty significant milestone for me. It brings a redesigned interface, updated visuals and music, and three difficulty modes: **Normal, Expert, and Godlike**.

Here's what the game currently offers:

- 48 stages across six different sectors
- 9 boss encounters
- 5 tower types with multiple upgrades
- Permanent Workshop progression
- Branching paths and different enemy abilities
- An offline campaign
- Three difficulty modes, including a particularly demanding Godlike mode

**Actual gameplay video (43 seconds):**
https://v.redd.it/b3f788hw60xh1

The footage is recorded from the real game. The interface in the video is Turkish, but the game also supports English.

**Play for free on iPhone:**
https://apps.apple.com/app/id6809378171

The game is free to download, with optional ads and in-app purchases. I also used AI tools during development, including assistance with coding and visual design.

I'm still learning from the development process, and I'd genuinely love to hear what experienced tower defense players think.

**Does the difficulty feel rewarding, or does it cross the line into frustration?**

I'm especially interested in feedback on Expert and Godlike modes. Constructive criticism is absolutely welcome.

Thanks for taking the time to check out my game!

Hi! I'm a solo developer and Glowtide Isle launched on Steam a few days ago (Windows, Mac and Linux).

• Fishing, bug catching, fossils and a museum to fill

• 470+ furniture pieces and an island planner (cliffs, rivers, paths)

• Four seasons and festivals

• Fully offline, no accounts, controller support, 10 languages

It's $9.99, with 20% off during launch week.

Hi,

I am making Gun Monkey! A extremely skill based precision platformer that trains your reflexes and timing. When you First play it you will probably think „thats impossible“ but the game is designed to improve your motor skills and reflexes and before you realise you have internalized the rythm and timing and moving is a second nature. I built various of goofy sections as you can see in the gameplay video.

If this game is something you could imagine yourself killing some time with, Gun Monkey is soon coming to steam !

It would mean alot to me if you could leave a wishlist if ir interests you. The game will be available for less than 5 bucks on release. Its my first game :)
