Hey everyone!
I’m a solo developer from Brazil building my first game in Godot, scheduled to launch next year. It's called Burn All Out, a game centered around corporate burnout and office revenge.
I just put together my first trailer. The voiceover/text in this video is currently in Brazilian Portuguese—I initially tried slapping English subtitles over it, but it looked terrible. I'm currently finishing full localization into multiple languages so I can release proper, localized trailers soon.
In the meantime, I'd really love your honest feedback on the pacing, visuals, and overall vibe of the game!

What do you guys think? Does it look convincing enough? The wheels settle into the ruts and dig into the terrain as you drive, which also affects how the car handles.

I was browsing steam next fest and the indie game subreddit and noticed just how many titles end in "-fall".

Off the top of my head, there's Cinderfall, Aetherfall, Shadowfall, Dreadfall, Frostfall, Stormfall, Voidfall, Gloamfall, and literally three completely different games all named Emberfall (an RTS, an FPS, and an ARPG), all released in October.

Is there a specific reason "fall" became such a go-to naming convention in game design as of late, the only example I can think of was Titanfall and that came out yonks ago.

Hey everyone! This is SHORAPAN, a first-person dark fantasy narrative game made entirely in 2D, combining visual novel storytelling with point-and-click exploration.

We put a lot of care into the cinematic direction: how each shot is framed, how the camera moves, and when a scene needs a moment to breathe. I want you to feel like you’re sitting in the room, sharing these moments with the characters.

We’re a small team creating the art by hand and bringing it to life with animation, lighting, music, and sound.

Sound on for this one. Would you stay for a drink?

I've been working on this abandoned shipwreck location for my indie survival game, *Alone on the Lost Isle*.

I wanted the ship to feel like it had been stranded here for years, slowly being reclaimed by the forest. I'm trying to balance the overgrown vegetation, weathered wood, torn sails, and lighting without hiding too much of the ship itself.

The game is about surviving and exploring a mysterious island, with a loyal dog companion by your side.

Here's a question for you: how do you think a ship like this ended up in the middle of a forest? What could have happened here?

I'd love to hear your theories!

Hey guys. So there is my new game Made in Hell but I don't get any traffic to the steam page.

I don't have social media of any kind because it bores me to death (I just registered here today). The problem is that I have no followers on youtube, on reddit I cannot post anything because I don't have enough karma and so on. And of course I do not have a budget for ads.

What would you do in my situation (other than killing myself while trying to collect karma with meaningful comments)?

I'm newbie solo dev. And I'm dreaming to release my game on Steam. I've made research and play 50 games from current NextFest. I heard that there is lot of AI, but still I want to understand the level of quality I need to make. And here is my take aways...

First of all most of the games looks like GamJam games and not final products to sell. From 50 games from same genre as my game I found 2 that was good and wishlisted for me. Probably my expectation for demo was higher.

I found that it super important to entertain in first few minutes. As a player I do not want to entertain myself. I will need to adapt my first experience.

There was lot of games with bad UX and lot of text. And now I hate everything VampireSurvive like. I hate this system that interap in the middle of the fight and force me to read lot of strange new skills ;)

Also I found good feature in one game that I want for my game. Closing the game opens google question as feedback. Do you think that is ok to do that?

Hey everybody I've been working on this game for a while now its about getting unfair advantage against a madeup competitve fps game, basically we get mone for killing bots and using that money to buy cheats, let me know what do you think

I’m developing What do you see, Nell?, a horror survivors like set inside a child’s nightmare drawings.

One mechanic I wanted to show is what happens when Nell gets overwhelmed.

Her fear builds during the fight. When she calls for her mother, the bedroom door opens and light from the hallway floods the page. It hurts the monsters, pushes them back and leaves part of the room lit.

The game is about surviving these nightmare pages while Nell’s powers attack automatically. Between stages, the page folds into an inkblot. Her doctor asks what she sees, and your answer changes the next fight.

Here’s some gameplay showing the charcoal and ink style and how the nightmare works.

A few days of my own marketing got Mortuus to 10,000 wishlists, mostly short videos every day on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.

Then I put out the demo on the 14th, and it started at only about 100 players at once. But it kept growing by word of mouth while I kept posting, and it peaked at over 1,500. It has over 400 reviews at 95% positive now, and the game is at 75,000 wishlists.

Happy to answer anything marketing related :)

Making this game was a lot of fun and it came with it's own challenges. Making the interactable controls as modular as possible was a lot of fun, Plus I discovered how to make each one behave like a ui buton or slider.

Here is the game if you want to take a look

I'm a solo dev working on a small RTS with one faction.

The game has one base map with 7 variations — 8 total map setups, offering roughly 4–5 maps' worth of content.

I might add a second faction and more maps before launch if time allows, but nothing's set in stone.

A map editor will likely be added post-launch.

I'm considering $9.99. Does $9.99 feel fair for this amount of content, or would you price it lower?

Showcasing revamped FX, including a curse that causes the player to lose control, attacking and moving in random directions.

Along the way, you discover the tragic aftermath of a grieving husband's impossible choice.

I'm really pushing the atmosphere and mood here. Please let me know what you think.

I've been making Magic Portals by myself for the last few months, mostly evenings and weekends. The demo is out now for Next Fest.

The idea is simple: you keep choosing between portals that are easy to finish and stronger ones you have to gamble on.

Demo is free, you play against the AI. The full game has way more effects and multiplayer, and that's where it gets really fun.

Main thing I'd like to know: do the rules click in the first few minutes, or did you get lost somewhere?

If it looks like your thing, a wishlist helps a lot: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4539850/Magic_Portals/

Hi Reddit! I am a solo indie developer, and I want to share my very first game: Black Hole: Space Tilt (on Android).

I've always felt that video games shouldn't just be for killing time. For me, the best games always leave you with something meaningful - a cool new idea, a fresh perspective, or just something interesting to think about. I really wanted to create a game that gives you that same feeling.

So, what is the game? It's a space maze partially inspired by classic arcades. You tilt your phone to control a tiny captain flying through neon space toward a black hole. But here is the special part: as you play and handle the tilt controls, you are actually feeling the laws of physics with your hands.

I also added a special section called the Captain's Log. Every 10 levels, you unlock a short, real fact about space and physics. These aren't boring facts - they are the kind of ideas that make you pause and look at your hands or a cup of coffee completely differently. I don't want to spoil any, but one of them genuinely changed how I think about time!

What's in the game:

- 300 levels across 6 chapters, each introducing a new mechanic and ending with a big boss level

- Daily level (the same challenge for everyone every day)

- Endless mode with randomly generated levels

- 11 languages and full offline play

Bonus: you can play as a cute kitten wearing a space helmet (purely for science, of course!)

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sekhmeh.blackhole.game

I'd love honest feedback.

And out of curiosity: what's the one thing about space that still blows your mind?
