Hello watch devs!

One thing I've realized over the last decade of being a smartwatch game dev is the lack of information or even a place for us to realistically give valuable insight into our games.

No site prioritizes us. Wikis are hard to build for those inexperienced and usually overkill. Hosting a site can be expensive.

So to fix this, developers (after claiming their studio) can now create a wiki for each of their apps!

It's not as "robust" as a real wiki but were working to make it feel like something you can be proud of and help users in their journey to enjoying or learning about your games.

If you want anything specific, please ask. For now all the tools are available for you to create meaningul FAQs, How tos and a database. Together, indie smartwatch game devs strong.

Hello everyone.

Deck Gauntlet is officially at Beta Testing phase!

Currently only on Apple Watch (WearOS coming shortly after).

I would love some fresh eyes on this. Open Beta link. Testflight link at the bottom

I'm mostly looking for how it feels and balancing. Whether there are any quality of life improvements as well. Let me know!

Hello everyone! I've had this project in the works for awhile now. Finally got it in a solid place to reveal it =)

Deck Gauntlet is inspired by Slay the Spire and takes it's classic element + adds some for a more medieval feel and of course my own spin on things.

- 5+ Heroes with custom decks
- 20+ ascension modes with increasing difficulty.
- 100+ Equipment and draughts
- 50+ Monsters
- 3 Acts, win, lose, restart

Full encyclopedia, unlock cards, learn monster weaknesses and even see your run history.

I built this after spending quite some time playing STS and wishing there was a watch version. There will be soon. First launch will be on Apple Watches with a WearOS port very shortly afterwards.

Would love to hear your thoughts or questions!

We, watch devs, have likely the hardest hill to climb when it comes to visibility and marketing. We aim to fix this, slowly but surely.

Let me know if you sign up, how the process went and if there are any other useful tools you'd love to see! We are in this fight together.

Hello everyone, I've been a WearOS game developer for almost a decade now. I figured I would try my hand at Apple Watch development.

Would love to hear your thoughts on "Pebblings". It's a nostalgic throwback to a popular 90's puzzle game where you control your hoardes.

Pebblings will be a bit deeper though.
- 30+ levels on launch
- Campaign mode with light roguelite mechanics. 5 levels, earn buffs between each one. Build a town and complete tasks to win. Full SIM with resource management, buildings and upgrades, combat and full boss battles.
- Sandbox mode so you can build a town and command your pebblings free from worry
- Daily challenges, achievements
- Unlockable skins and decorations

To answer anyones question. yes was a game I thought would be impossible on a small screen. With the use of slow-downs, crown scrolling and zooming though I think it turned out really well.

Let me know your thoughts!
