Hi everyone! I received some more feedback yesterday—thanks to the reasonable people who left comments with constructive criticism.

I read everything, even if I didn't reply to you.

Topic: I'm trying to choose a new character design that people will like. Here’s what’s been done so far (last changes):

1. Many people mentioned liking long hair, so I added that option. You can choose to keep it or remove it for any pose (need to polish).

2. The breasts were bouncing too much—I checked some references;) and toned down the amplitude of the movement.

There’s also a version where they don’t move at all (though I find that one boring, not because I’m obsessed with boobs, but simply because it looks a bit empty without the movement).

The animations aren't polished yet. And, oh! I just realized I forgot to add the shell casings)

That’s about it. Thanks everyone, and a shout-out to the people who specifically visited my sub just to downvote all my posts; watching that was actually pretty funny))

Hey everyone, I'm back with a new trailer for my post-apocalyptic game. I spent two hours making it, so please rate it.

Started working on a new area for my game and i feel it looks quite unique. The amount of layers in the background reminds me of hollow knight but in pixel art and with more color! If you have any thoughts or feedback, please let me know! I'm very new to pixel art. This game turns traditional 2D mini golf into a fast paced roguelike! Collect powerful items that stack and create crazy builds! If this sounds interesting to you, Wishlist the game on steam, its called Grandpa Golf

Hey everyone,

I am desperately looking for some feedback! I have been developing my casual RTS game Plebs for a number of years as a hobby, but my refund rate on Steam is terrible.

Unfortunately I don't get much feedback for why they didn't like the game or what they felt was the reason for returning it, so I am looking for some help to find out what is missing or what people don't like about Plebs when they first start playing.

Maybe the game isn't unique enough, or learning curve is too steep, or maybe people don't feel the Steam page accurately reflects the game.

If you could help me it would be greatly appreciated! Here is the Steam page with a demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1902180/Plebs/

Hi everyone! I’m Tony, and over the past year I’ve been building Ninjora.

This is the first public trailer for Ninjora, an online action MMORPG. The trailer showcases fast-paced combat, open-world exploration, villages, boss fights, PvP, character progression, and a glimpse of the world players will be explore during the first public playtest on August 1.

Ninjora draws inspiration from games like Ragnarok Online, Conquer Online, RuneScape, and Rust while trying to create something that feels like its own world inspired by Naruto.

I’d genuinely love to hear what MMORPG players think. What stands out to you the most, and what would you want to see before the playtest?

From a recent update to my Chroma Noir Arctic assets. Hope you enjoy the scene, cheers!

Today I noticed something that made me smile.
My app Quiet Lines generated its first earnings on Google Play. It’s only €2.12, but seeing that someone found enough value to subscribe is an incredible feeling.
A few months ago I was learning, fixing bugs, improving the UI, posting for feedback on Reddit, and wondering if anyone would ever use it.
This isn’t life-changing money, but it’s proof that building something people are willing to pay for is possible.
If you’re working on your own app, keep going. Small milestones are still milestones.

I wanted this drill to feel less like a normal drill bit and more like a concentrated plasma weapon. The visuals are built in Unity with code-driven layers: a glowing core, animated beam, contact flare, particles, pulsing light, and scripted motion instead of a pre-rendered animation.

It is still being tuned, but I’m pretty happy with the outcome so far.

been grinding this for over a year and have a lot of cool like world generation and base building and shit but no game. looking for some feedback and suggestions on where I should head with it. <3

Hi,

It's my first solo steam game, so i would really like to get any kind of feedback.
- Did you like trailer?
- How is my store page?
- What do you think of the art? I drew it myself, but I'm not an artist.
- Does the game look interesting? Would you play it?

And about the game Duco:

Duco is a card-based survival roguelike set in a post-apocalyptic world with zombies.

You have to draw from location-based decks to gather resources, loot, craft, build, and survive.

On Release, you will be able to unlock new characters and maps, combine them with traits to create unique runs and interact with NPCs while building and managing your own settlement.

It's inspired by Project Zomboid, but reimagined as a card-based survival roguelike.

You were created five minutes ago.

The god who made you is watching your every move.

He's called the Sky King, and he abandons every world he builds the moment something new catches his eye.

You're the first creation he's made with the power to change that. Eight arms, a grappling hook, a sword, ink.
Eight endings, genre-shifting worlds, existential dark humour.

Happy to answer anything about the game or the solo-dev process. I'm also the music composer :)
I've spent the last 3 days working every day on it, ! hope you get something out of it!

I don't know if this helps anyone, maybe if you guys don't want to buy from fab or looking for a cheap workaround. I first downloaded a control-panel reference image from Google, then cleaned and enhanced it in Photoshop so the details looked sharper and clearer. After that, I brought it into Blender and used it as a material on a cube mesh. The cube was slightly deformed and adjusted so the image would sit properly inside the cabinet shape instead of looking completely flat. I also added some extra mesh details and cube frames like dividers and borders to create depth. Then I added two glasses, one translucent blackish shade and one with the rain effect on top, and used an angled perspective/parallax effect to make the flat image feel more 3D.

This is a development preview of my new upcoming game - Vikings Vs Romans. I am a senior Vfx artist working in Houdini and Godot.

The game is played with realtime physics, storms and bad weather. The water I can fully control and vary in any shape, and the ragdoll physics is working well now. Next week (week 8 of dev) I will hopefully get approval for the Steam page and you can expect a playable demo in October.

Please let me know what you guys think and what kind of weapons you would like to see in the game. I have sharks that will eat the swimmers and there will be special weapons like a giant squid.

My next big development hurdle is the destruction of the boat. We must be able to destroy the boats. 💥

Hey everyone,

I'm sharing a major update on my psychological horror adventure game. While the project was originally inspired by Over the Garden Wall, I’ve decided to pivot and expand it into an entirely original universe and story.

To reflect this creative shift, the game is officially changing its name from Unknown’s Shadow to Woodbound.

Woodbound focuses on surviving a dark, mysterious forest where players must navigate deception, rich lore, and deep atmospheric horror. Building an original world gives me the freedom to craft unique gameplay mechanics without any boundaries.

If you were interested in the early concept, thank you for the support. Follow my account to stay updated on Woodbound as development continues!
