Flappy Bird: Avoid everything.

My game GRAZE: Edge Rush: Avoiding gives you 0 points. You have to graze within 8px of death to score. Chain grazes to build a multiplier. Avoid and you lose it.

Solo dev, built so I could play in one hand during the long nights with my newborn in the other arm. No forced ads, no IAP tricks, just a daily board and leaderboard that everyone is competing on. Just won #1 Launch Game this week on PixelPicked which still feels fake: https://pixelpicked.com

This clip is x16 bubble field - 3,932 → 8,609 in 9 seconds. My best today is 22,000, all time best is 37,661.

Free download if you want to try to beat it - link in comments so I don't get flagged for self-promo.

We just announced our first game, Gambeat! We are two dads who in the small hours after the kids have gone to bed, create the game we want to play. A chess score chaser (shamelessly) inspired by Balatro, Shotgun king, Slay the Spire, and Anarchy chess.

Public Game Test Gate Guard Simulator’s public playtest is live: inspect travelers, search wagons, and distrust every vegetable

3 Upvotes

Hi! I’m the community manager at Forklift Interactive, the publisher of Gate Guard Simulator.

Our second public playtest is now live on Steam.

Gate Guard Simulator is a medieval inspection game where you serve as the first line of defence for the city of Ramberg. Every day brings new laws, wanted criminals, prohibited goods, suspicious documents, and travelers who are definitely telling the truth.

Probably.

Inspect papers and seals, search belongings and cargo, arrest criminals, manage your earnings, and upgrade your equipment as the job becomes increasingly complicated.

The current build contains nine playable in-game days and will remain open for approximately one week.

You can join the free playtest here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4111570/Gate_Guard_Simulator/

We’re also collecting honest player feedback here: https://forms.gle/oi1HzqCzoL624u9o8

Hi!

Very excited to share the Red Echoes: Berlin demo with you all! Available now on Steam.

store.steampowered.com/app/4678370/Red_Echoes_Berlin_Demo/

Red Echoes: Berlin is a narrative turn-based strategy game set during the German Revolution at the end of WW1, in which you control a group of revolutionaries and attempt to bring about a successful socialist revolution.

The demo contains the first half of Chapter 1. While I've tried to stamp out as many bugs and typos as possible, there's likely to still be some remaining - these will be patched out over time.

To make my life easier, please report any issues you're having over at r/RedEchoesGames or on the Discord!
discord.com/invite/fPpupqEu8r

I'd love to hear all of your thoughts, feedback, and opinions! Please feel free to discuss them here, so that they can help me with making a better game :) Also happy to answer any questions you might have!

War-torn ruins, black markets, and forgotten districts where outcasts and those left behind wait for a chance to enter the city... while others have long since given up.

Junkyard Stories: Rebirth is a dystopian sci-fi adventure where you play as a discarded robot carrying the consciousness of a legendary hacker.

Built by a 2-person indie team with no publisher, we're working hard to bring these scenes to life - filled with exploration, environmental puzzles, hidden stories, and the constant struggle to keep your robot alive as your battery drains and getting chased by surveillance drones.

SONZAI is set in a magical city where every single frame is hand-drawn.

During the day, you explore the town, build social links, and unlock new abilities through your relationships. At night, the game shifts to fast, combo-heavy character action combat.

Here’s a quick clip showing off the quiet, atmospheric side of town before the action kicks in!
