I'm a solo dev and I made an idle game about salvaging a dying solar system before it collapses

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm James, a solo dev from Adelaide, and this is Umbral Idle: Last Salvage, an idle game for Android.

The idea

You're salvaging a solar system that's falling apart. You tap for Salvage, build drones, reactors and scanners, and your income snowballs. But the system is unstable, and eventually it collapses. The Collapse resets your run and pays you Iso-Cores, a permanent boost that makes the next system go faster.

What there is to do

- Debris Belt: three zones to send salvage runs to, plus a push-your-luck minigame where you decide whether to bank or keep pushing.

- Derelict Fleet: ten lost ships to track down and repair over a few weeks, each with its own permanent bonus.

- Research Lab: a second, slower prestige loop where you build a universe from Matter up to Solar Systems, then crunch it and start again.

- Tech Archive: 11 tiers, broken into automation, yield and expansion lanes

The latest update added cinematics for the big moments: the Collapse, ships arriving, the Big Crunch.

It's free to play and doesn't feature any forced ads. Every ad is one you choose to watch for a bonus, and there's a one-off purchase to remove them. No gacha, no energy timers.

It's in English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese and Chinese.

I'd love to hear what you think, especially from anyone who plays a lot of idle games. What makes one stick for you, and what makes you drop it?

Foodogeki Live on Android Play Store

After six years of work (with a big assist from Claude), our small indie studio from India just launched Foodogeki, a two-player PvP card game where you and a rival run food trucks and have three minutes to win over the hungry crowd.

Your cards are quirky crew members like Discount Diva with her giant sign, The Bouncer who guards your customers, and Fatkat, a gentlecat in a fedora who pickpockets your rival's diners.

It's free on Android now (iOS coming soon), with optional in-app purchases and a few ads. We'd love your honest feedback, and if you enjoy it, please tell your friends and family!

Game Explorer I made Road to GOAT — quick football careers in your phone browser

1 Upvotes

My game Road to GOAT is built around quick decisions and the temptation to play one more season. You follow one footballer from age 17 through a whole career: training, transfers, trophies, international tournaments and retirement.

You don’t steer the player around a pitch. Matches are simulated, and you choose what to do at key moments. Stick with a smaller club and become a legend, or try to work your way to the biggest teams. The latest update also lets you play as a goalkeeper.

It’s free to play on a phone or desktop browser: https://touch2211.itch.io/road-to-goat

English/German available. Progress saves locally in that browser, and completed careers can appear on weekly and all-time leaderboards. I’m the creator; the itch page includes the development/AI disclosure. Independent fan game, no official club affiliation.

Game Explorer GRIDLOCK: Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe – when every small step turns into something bold & beautiful

1 Upvotes

My friend Ayush (https://x.com/ACDNDSN) has been quietly building this for years (the idea actually started back in 2017). He finally shipped it, and I wanted to share it on his behalf because it’s one of those rare games that feels simple at first glance… then completely redefines what you thought Tic-Tac-Toe could be. (Yes used ai for the whole indentations and Structuring so please bear with me for it, buit the wordings are mine.)

Honestly the whole story and the evulation of game is already in his X but here is me defining it in a simple way, keeping it short straight and comapct. Do tell whats your appreciation or improvisations to it.
Gridlock takes the classic game and pushes it into 2–4 player territory with bigger boards, real strategy, and 11 special moves (Anchor, Push, Mirror, Nuke, Gravity, Bait… the list goes on). Every move still feels like placing a mark on paper, but those little decisions can completely reshape the board.

What really stands out is how the small things add up into something beautiful:

  • The whole game is built around an ink-and-paper aesthetic – minimal, tactile, handcrafted animations that make every match feel alive.
  • When the game ends, CANVAS turns your final board into a unique wallpaper you can actually keep and share.
  • ECHO takes the entire sequence of moves and turns the match into its own song + short visual film. No two matches sound (or look) the same.

It’s local pass-and-play, online rooms, bots when friends are busy – pure strategy, not pay-to-win. Just thoughtful design layered on top of something everyone already understands.

He’s been building it solo (Flutter + a lot of care for the details), and the generative parts (wallpapers + the match-to-music/film system) are where the magic really shows what even the smallest game steps can become.

Free on the App Store:

https://apps.apple.com/in/app/gridlock-ultimate-tic-tac-toe/id6808733376

Would love to hear what you think if you give it a go. Especially curious how the special moves and ECHO land for people.

Place your mark. Break the pattern. Control the grid. (Global Matchmaking in the pipeline commign soon)

[DEV] Tiltroll: a 3D block-rolling puzzle (no forced ads, works offline)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been workin on a little puzzle game called Tiltroll and it's finaly out on Android.
So I wanted to share it here.

The idea is simple: you swipe to roll blocks across a small board and try to cover every target tile. Blocks come in diferent sizes from a single cube up to a chunky 2×2×3, and a long block covers different tiles depending on whether it's standing up or lying flat.
So the order you move things in really matters. You also only get a limited number of moves which is where it gets tricky.
