My first complete project in two years seems to have failed

My first complete project in two years seems to have failed

It is small horror game, where you are working at research station. You have to keep the radar running unless you will be terminated, literally. I wanted to make job horror game. I will be glad if you give me some feedback, so i can improve my next project.

Game Title: Echoes of the Shield

Playable Link: https://setfire-entertainment.itch.io/echoes-of-the-shield

Platform: PC (Windows)

Description: You are an operator stationed in an isolated sector. Your duties include maintaining the radar signal, supplying fuel to the organic reactor, and ensuring that performance metrics do not drop. The station where you work is a lifeline for all of humanity. The job requires constant monitoring of the radar to prevent it from shutting down. At the same time, the operator must regulate the supply of biomass to the organic reactor’s core, ensuring stability within strict time intervals. Failure to maintain baseline telemetry readings leads to an immediate critical system failure. Operational effectiveness depends entirely on precise adherence to time intervals, strict protocol compliance, and resource monitoring under conditions of prolonged isolation from the outside world.

Free to Play Status:

  • [ ] Free to play

Involvement: I'm a solo developer. I created all the models, scripts, and textures myself.

Just released my new complete project after 2 years of stagnation

Hi everyone! I just finished my new project - a chamber horror game. It’s a short game, with about 10–15 minutes of gameplay.

The premise: You are an operator in a sterile station. Your only duties are to keep the radar running.

I’d be incredibly grateful if you checked it out and dropped some feedback!

​My first experience working in a team

Hi everyone!

​I wanted to share my first experience working in a team for a game jam.

One day, I just realized I was tired of being a lone wolf and wanted to try collaborating on a project. A game jam felt like the perfect testing ground for that.

​I found a programmer in a Discord channel and reached out. The guy turned out to be super helpful and easy to work with.

​To my surprise, everything went smoothly. In just 3 days, we built a prototype of our game. He handled the scripting, and I focused on the 3D modeling.

Of course, we didn't manage to polish everything - the game is currently held together by duct tape, hope, and a massive amount of bugs. But honestly? It was an amazing experience.
