r/AutoBattler

In response to this post, I thought it would be good to start some conversation about fun autobattlers but with no self promo allowed. If you are a dev, surely its because you love playing autobattlers.

So, what is everyone playing or looking forward to playing?

I try to keep up with the genre as much as possible. The most interesting one I tried recently was the open playtest of Alchemortis.

It's single player and uses an inventory management mechanic similar to backpack battles. It offers a tree no navigate like slay the spire, and has a cool alchemy mechanic where you mix things together and they either improve or get cursed. I didn't get too deep into it but it definitely left an impression and left me wanting to learn and play more.

The one I've been keeping an eye on and want to try soon is batomon showdown. I was watching retromation play it a lot and its high on my list of things to try next.

How about you all?

I am a software engineer who has always wanted to learn how to develop and make games but I had one issue. I didn't have an idea.

After playing 9 kings shortly after it's release I sprouted the idea for my game, it has a few aspects inspired directly from 9 kings as well as Balatro. Mainly the auto battling from 9 Kings.

It started with a simple concept of building a space fleet to battle against enemy space fleets, while enhancing your fleets with Planets and moons.

I have been developing this game for around 12 months so far and have opened a playtest. With my game being of a very similar genre I would love to know get some thoughts and feedback from die hard 9 Kings fans to see where I'm hitting the mark and where I am falling short.

Keep in mind the game is pretty early in development and is a little unbalanced right now as well as some additional features still in development.

If you read this far thanks for hearing my story and if you love 9 Kings check out my game it would mean a lot to me!

Hammered Heroes is in early development. There are 200 procedurally generated levels (with 15 different bosses) and an end game where you kill legends to unlock more characters.

Lots of roguelike DNA.

You can try it for as long as you want here: https://facewongames.itch.io/hammered-heroes

Let me know if you think it’s fun!

That's pretty much it! We're making a fantasy auto-battler with RPG vibes called "Claw and Conjure." Currently on Godot 4.4.

I was playing/testing and capturing new screenshots for steam tonight and really felt like I was having fun with the game and was proud of how it's coming along, and wanted to share with someone!

Ever since sinking way too many hours into Hearthstone Battlegrounds, TFT, and Backpack Battles, I've wanted to try making an auto-battler. This is my first real shot at the genre, and I could really use some feedback.

The game is called Shatterforge. It's an item-synergy crafting auto-battler where you forge your loadout, dismantle gear for parts, and match up against opponents' builds.

I just opened the Steam store page for my game ANANKE: Roguelike AutoBattler
It’s a single-player auto-battler combined with roguelike mechanics. I'd love to get your honest feedback on the overall vibe and how the gameplay looks!

After three years of solo development, released my first commercial game.

Kind of feels hollow - may just need to take a nap.

The game is good, and has true innovation with the market-balancing system, but it's not on the path to commercial success (or recouping costs). I think I'll keep developing it though - I want to see the world grow and there are some truly dedicated (obsessive?) players that keep me excited.

Just so many confusing emotions right now.

Hey r/PixelArt ,
I'm solo-dev one man army working on incremental pixel RPG.
Art is not my main spec but it's so fun to do. I just like the symbolism it requires.
So frame by frame animations, enemies design, attacks, UI, icons etc. I've done it all.

I may not look like, but the design and coding part was huge here. It's already done, project is available in early access to smooth things out.

So I'm at the stage when finally I can focus more on ART!
Before I go to more enemies etc. I want to upgrade current assets.

- For sure a combat summary looks poor.
- Some icons are in different resolution like Prestige Point Crown vs Coin.
- Ascention has a little photo-story sequence of lore, which is nice, but the overall UI needs some love.
- Prestige Buff info popup is weak.
- I re-use a label art, just stretching it with unity 9-slice and with colors.

For sure you're better experts on art and pixel style so any feedback would be golden for me.
Roast it, give tips and tricks, give ideas, you name it.
I don't mind it because my goal is to upgrade the overall quality.

So far in scope of first 300 players no one complained on art yet.
Genre is also more focused on the incremental upgrade progression than art so some things are forgiven to me.
But well, it's far away from perfect yet ;p
I don't want to do the minimal effort, I want to give my best shot.

Let's talk it out folks!

Hey everyone. I have had a game ive been working on that i posted on the steam workshop page for rpgmakerMZ. Im looking for people to just casually play the game and give me feedback. Ive only received one comment out of several people trying the game and it was when the game had JUST started so it wasnt really all that insightful but still appreciated.

Im not looking to inflate numbers or anything like that. I genuinely want feedback more than anything. Im a solo dev that cant code and really need help trying to make this game the best it could be. Ive had several people try it and crickets. I just dont have all the time in the world to keep going through trying every single weapon/equipment combo every skill etc.

AutoRPG is a pretty linear RPG where your characters autobattle choosing their own commands. Everytime you beat a boss a new dungeon appears on the world map and the shop updates with a new tier of items. The goal is to loot/buy equipment and build different classes into a build path you want. If this sounds like something youd like- please give it a try and please give me some feedback on balance maps music etc. Anything would be appreciated.
