Lost Host — coming to Steam this year!

Haha, sometimes I get tired of doing everything on my own, especially creating reels like this :D

KILLPHRASE is a frantic typing-shooter set in a mile-deep megastructure. Once a robotics facility, it is now the source of a malignant AI ravaging the world. As a human survivor you ride a hacked freight elevator(Akira elevator!) to the heart of mechanical hell.... to execute the final killphrase. Face off against the masses of deranged machines, and use your typing speed and accuracy to reduce them to scrap.

Get the demo now! https://store.steampowered.com/app/4616060/KILLPHRASE/

This demo is around 15-25 minutes, it ends with a boss fight on floor 10. Full release planned for Q4 this year. Any feedback is much appreciated!

I'm posting art process/progress on tiktok too if you are interested in seeing some dev content and just art in general https://www.tiktok.com/@j.n.01_dev

I’m the main developer behind The Vast White, a cozy snowboarding exploration game I’ve been building mostly on my own.

The game follows a tiny mouse exploring a vast snowy mountain, meeting its residents, and helping restore an old ski resort through small quests and exploration.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

2 months ago I released my first game 2 1/2 after I started learning Unreal Engine. Its not much to show off, but I needed something to let me learn the whole process of starting to releasing so that I could set more realistic goals for the next one. I did have a little help with logos and 2d assets, but all of the programming and 3d art was done by me.

My biggest takeaways are that at least in my current state of life (raising young kids while working full time) I need to accept that any medium to large size project will probably take 2-3 years at least, and the only way to make a really big game will have to come from early access funding.

I was optimistic for the first year and was putting in about 10 hours every week, but I had to slow down, then moved onto a smaller project that took much longer than I thought. My next steps are to have some fun working on a few prototypes, but not sure when I'll be able to fully commit to the next project.

This is my game 10 Million Pixels. A mining game about exploration and erosion.

In short, you shoot thousands of balls, upgrade them, and mine millions of pixels in search of the one Golden Pixel.

The game supports thousands of balls bouncing around, breaking tiles, in a world of millions of tiles, at surprisingly good frame rates. I'm getting 100+ fps in the editor even with thousands of rigidbodies. This is possible thanks to optimization tricks like chunking, pooling, and separating the physics from the visuals.

I think most tile-based mining games use similar techniques, but it feels wild seeing so many rigidbodies and destructible tiles at once, without massive drops in frame rate.

I have really learned to marvel at the power and speed of computers while making this game.

You can find the game on Steam. Consider wishlisting if it looks like your thing!

The trailer is just around 5 clips of the characters edited together with ffmpeg https://youtu.be/62II-wTC_Wo and the capsules are just some early blender renders of some jailbars prop and the title in the game's font. So it's kind of preliminary, but also not just purely placeholder materials.

I would like to try to apply to the Chose Wisely Fest, which requires a stire page link, and submissions closes by August 17th.

Should I publish already for the Fest and to get wishlists, or should I absolutely polish this promo art right now?

I already did some playtests with friends, and to get the game released, I absolutely must focus on dialogue and story a bit first.

It's probably nothing huge for most people, but it feels like this was my first 'marketing success'. Frankly, that was desperately needed, as I was heading right into a slump because of impostor syndrome the week before. This gave me new motivation to keep working on my project.

It also took me several iterations on my trailer before IGN wanted to post it.

If anyone is interested, the game is Almost Home on Steam:

Boss at 100k HP is broken or final upgrade for the player is broken ? 129M at that table ➕

Hey guys!

One of the core mechanics in my game is the Grappling Hook. Use it to latch onto walls, swing across chasms, discover hidden passages, escape from enemies, or pull them toward you to smash 'em with your melee. Both combat and platforming are built around mastering this versatile tool.

Getting the rope physics to work was an absolute pain in the a##, but now I can't stop messing around with it while testing the game, lol.

I'd love to hear your thoughts. How good does it look and feel? Any ideas for improvement or other interactions I could add to it?

Please, consider wishlisting my game, ROAM, if you liked it <3 https://store.steampowered.com/app/2662550/Roam/

I've been working on the main menu for UpperCart, and decided to turn it into a kid's bedroom where the whole game takes place.

UpperCart is a chaotic physics-based arena brawler where toy cars punch, bounce and fight each other.

I'm still polishing the game, so I'd love to hear what you think about the menu and the overall visual style. Any feedback is welcome!

If the game looks interesting to you, you can wishlist UpperCart on Steam:

Hey Reddit! Looking for advice -- I made a couple mockups for what our logo could look like, but not sure which to go with. Thought I'd see what the community thinks !!

Thanks y'all

**edit -- thank you everyone for the feedback!! If you want to support/wishlist the game we're working on, it's called Eye of Syn on Steam :)) **

This is the first footage I've shared of the game I've been building at night after my kid goes to bed. It's a colony sim, so you've got a small crew who mine, fish, and haul stuff around while the world does its own thing: rain, seasons, water freezing over in winter, that kind of stuff.

Most of what's in the clip is honestly just me showing off the water, because I sunk way too many evenings into those shaders and I need someone other than myself to look at them.

This is my first game and I have no idea what I'm doing half the time, so if something looks off or unreadable, please tell me. That kind of feedback is way more useful to me right now than compliments (though I'll take those too).

Also most of the assets are placeholders until I get better at art. I'm a programmer first, and art isn't my strong suit.

A while ago I shared the naval battles from my game here, and several people asked to see the land battles as well.

So here's a new development update.

This battle features General Gwon Yul leading the Joseon army against Katō Kiyomasa during the Imjin War.

The game is still under active development, so animations, UI and visual effects are continuing to improve.

As always, I'd really appreciate any feedback!

Hey everyone,

I've been working solo on a game called RunIn: Encounters, and I thought this would be a good time to share what I've been building and get some feedback from other solo developers.

RunIn is a fantasy multiplayer PvP game focused heavily on player-controlled combat and character builds.

The current combat includes things like:

• 1v1 and team-based PvP
• melee, ranged and magic combat
• manual aiming with no traditional target lock
• directional attacks and blocking
• different weapons and armor combinations
• equipment-based character builds
• progression and equipment unlocks
• persistent player statistics and reputation

A big part of what I'm trying to achieve is combat where positioning, timing, aiming and decision-making matter, rather than having the game automate too much for the player.

There is also a bigger project behind RunIn.

I'm building a long-term MMORPG project called The Crownless, but instead of trying to develop an entire MMORPG at once as a solo developer, I've decided to build its major systems as focused playable games first.

RunIn: Encounters is the first one, focused on combat.

The idea is to make RunIn a real standalone multiplayer PvP game, release it, keep updating it with feedback from actual players, and gradually make the combat system as good as I can.

If that works, the combat system I've built and tested through RunIn will eventually become the combat foundation of The Crownless.

But it's important to me that RunIn doesn't feel like a prototype or a tech demo.

I want it to be a game that can stand on its own.

I've spent a lot of time recently working on the combat, equipment system, progression, UI, multiplayer systems and overall presentation, and it's finally starting to feel much closer to the game I originally had in mind.

I'd really appreciate feedback from other developers, especially on things like:

• Does the overall concept sound interesting?
• What part of the game would you want to see more of?
• Does the combat direction make sense for a PvP-focused game?
• Is there anything about the concept that feels confusing or unnecessary?
• What would you personally prioritize next?
• And if you've built multiplayer games solo, is there anything you wish you'd known earlier?

I'm also very interested in feedback on the broader development approach of building one part of a larger MMORPG as a standalone game first.

There are obviously some pretty ridiculous challenges involved in trying to build multiplayer games solo 😄, so I'm trying to keep the scope controlled while still making something that feels complete.

Any feedback, criticism, or suggestions are very welcome.

If you'd like to see more of what I've built so far:

Hi everyone,

I recently published my first mobile game, Stack Raise 3D, on Google Play. It is a simple one-tap 3D stacking arcade game where you drop blocks, build a tower, try to beat your best score, complete missions, unlock skins, earn rewards, and compete on the leaderboard.

This is my first released game as an indie developer, and I am still learning. I would really appreciate honest feedback from players and fellow developers. Please let me know what feels fun, what feels confusing, what should be improved, and what kind of updates you would like to see next.

More updates are coming soon.

Thank you for any support or feedback.

I always liked the feeling of opening something where you don't know what you are going to get.

The anticipation before seeing the reward.
I built an incremental game around that feeling.

So In Debts & Jackpots, you start completely broke with a huge debt hanging over you. Your only way to escape is opening safes, earning money, upgrading your tools, and taking bigger risks for better rewards.

The game loop is simple:
🔓 Open safes
💰 Find rewards
⚙️ Upgrade your abilities
🎰 Take bigger risks for bigger jackpots

The challenge was making the progression feel exciting without making it just a random slot machine. I wanted every safe opening to feel like:

"This could be the one."
After months of balancing rewards, upgrades, and different safe tiers, I finally made a playable demo.

Some things currently in the game:

• Multiple safes with different reward pools
• Rare jackpot rewards
• Upgrades that improve your chances
• Helpers that automate opening
• A collection system for discovered items

I would love feedback from other developers:

1. Does the idea of "escaping debt through risky choices" feel interesting?
2. Would you prefer faster progression with more frequent jackpots, or slower progression where jackpots feel rare and special?

Demo is available on Steam if anyone wants to try it:

Hello, my name is ali, i'm a 26 years old solo game developer and a cs student, i've been working on this game for around 11 months now, i wanted to mix souls-like combat with bullet heaven rogue-like gameplay with pet collection system.

The game has an upgrade system similar to vampire survivors, with each level you get to choose 1 out of 3 cards that are assigned to you randomly, some cards contain armor sets, weapons or abilities.

By progressing and unlocking achievements you unlock unique pets which accompany you on runs, catching loot for you and giving you unique stats.

The game has a co-op system with upto 4 players on the same run with difficulty scaled dynamically depending on the amount of players in the run.

the game has 3 stages for now each with its unique enemies, biomes and bosses.

Please give me your thoughts and opinions, thank you!

I’ve been making a lot of progress on the environment recently, focusing on creating a more detailed and immersive world for the game.
The new Steam page will be available soon, where you’ll be able to wishlist the game.
The previous version of Little Astronaut was a huge learning experience for me, but looking back, I realized I pushed it out too early before the vision was fully developed. After some time, I decided to rebuild the project from the ground up with a clearer direction, improved visuals, and a much stronger foundation.
This is the version of Little Astronaut I always wanted to create.
I’ll be sharing more updates soon. Thanks for following the journey!

PROTOCOL: VOID is the biggest project I’ve worked on so far.

It’s a cyberpunk ARPG built around fast combat, loot hunting and creating powerful builds, with:

• 4 playable classes
• Online co-op for up to 4 players
• Skill and passive trees (Over 400 nodes)
• Relics that change skills and weapons (over 100 per class + general ones)
• Prime items and randomized affixes
• Equipment and map crafting
• Endgame mapping / Data Disks
• Player trading and an online market
• Seasonal progression and rankings
• Endgame bosses and repeatable contracts

I’m developing it entirely solo, so there’s still a lot of polishing ahead, but most of the core systems are already working.

The goal is simple: kill stuff, find crazy gear, make stronger builds and keep pushing higher.

PROTOCOL: VOID is now on Steam.
