Also, why the hell does my salt have sugar in it? What is going on? Am I losing my mind?
I was stirring my onions and looking at this box and wondering wtf this "gather salt with us" thing was ... the game still works...

hella casual!
I stopped churning out low quality maps and decided to spend a few weeks learning how to tell a story with my level designs and also just get better at 3D asset creation (modelling + texturing). Paid off hugely... Reminded me that its easy to get lost in this 'sprint to the finish' which makes your game shittier. Patience will make a better game
Got feedback I need to make my game's maps bigger and the action smoother (and the aiming easier)... so I changed my FPS controller to have on-rails surfing built in, with some titans to shoot on the outside :-). From my game Gridpaper.
This is more of an end-game sequence, but does this look "too" fast paced for you?
i've never been more hated than as an indie dev. if you want to insult my game, the demo is over here on steam
edit: wow, okay, I did not see this blow up. reposted a meme i found before lunch and came back to death threats in my DMs. sorry to all those offended
I'm the developer of Gridpaper (free demo available on steam rn) (I'm currently in early alpha stages). I posted here about 2 weeks ago and someone called my hard work "skinny v1" and I took it to heart, and improved the look of the arms massively <3. Let me know how I did
I have a demo on steam and I'm always looking to get crapped on by sweaty FPS players so check it out if you'd like!
I'm the developer of Gridpaper (demo on steam) and I'm getting a demo ready, slowly, for steam nextfest. People keep telling me to inform more ultrakill players of my game. I want them to come take a dump on it and tell me why it's bad.
Go play my demo! Or join my discord! <3
Hello, I am in need of a capsule artist for my game, Gridpaper. Gridpaper is an FPS headshot speedrunning game based in an abstract cybernetic/mathematical world. It generally has a dark, clinical feeling throughout the game (some quick examples shown in the video). As such, I'm looking for an artist who has a relevant style to create Steam capsule artwork prior to Steam NextFest in June.
If you're interested, please send a link to your portfolio of 2D art or capsule art that you think would be a good fit for Gridpaper.
Thanks so much in advance.
Implemented a ghost that runs alongside you, which represents your path and events during your personal best. Makes a singleplayer game feel more like multiplayer :-D
This is from my demo on steam for the game Gridpaper. We also have a Discord if you want to come hang out and sweat together.
Blocking out a level and getting the lighting bake results feels so amazing. Ever since the days of source SDK I loved baking lighting, but baking on a 5090 w/ Bakery is a dream come true.
Heyo... I am the developer of Gridpaper which is a headshot speedrunning game. I just released a free demo on steam and constantly get the feedback that I should be showing more ULTRAKILL players my game. Would love it if folks gave feedback and played the demo. Come sweat with us in discord <3

I personally hate anything that impedes my ability to get straight to gameplay. I am the type of gamer that wants to load in with 0 tutorial and instructions and suffer and be confused and figure out how to play the game the way I want to play it. However I'm starting to seriously consider the need for one in a project of mine because my game design is strong (players who understand the game play for hours upon hours), but the bulk of my traffic does not play for long before quitting.
My game is in a very niche genre, so expectantly there will be a large fraction of players who just don't get it because it doesn't resonate with them and they choose not to spend time learning it... but I think it is my job to kind of engineer an onboarding process that converts a larger fraction of people outside the niche to recognize the fun/beauty of this niche.
I have good volume, but poor retention. People on steam are clicking my game, downloading it, and leaving survey feedback rating "8/10", "9/10" in my survey, but saying "onboarding unclear", and my retention times are below average when compared to other steam demos.
It's certainly possible I'm delusional but I do think I have a good game. Streamers that play it get sucked in and addicted and wont stop playing... but I have remade my onboarding level over and over and over trying to massively simplify things but players keep coming back saying "it was too confusing".
So all of that to say ... I want to know people's thoughts on if they think those "heres how this game works in 30 seconds" videos are annoying ... and let say you CAN NOT skip it.
Any opinions appreciated ... thanks!

Okay let's be honest, I still suck, but I was proud of this performance
