For the last two years I’ve been developing a programming game where you use real Python code to automate all kinds of machinery in different environments. It is inspired by Zachtronics’ games, While True Learn, Human Resource Machine, Robot Arena and a little Factorio / Mindustry but in realistic 3D environments with simulated physics.
In preparation for Steam Next Fest I just published the demo version for you to check out:

I first announced JOY OF PROGRAMMING here on r/games’ Indie Sunday in January and it was met with an overwhelmingly positive reception. So I hope the demo version meets your expectations and you’ll have fun with it. Please don’t hesitate to share your feedback and I’m happy to answer any questions.

Am I the only one that really hope that Valve will update Day of Defeat to use the Source 2 engine.
I loved that game - probably one of my favorite WW2 games.
Ahoy! I’ve dedicated my past five years to making Seablip, it is now close to a release.

Seablip is an open-world pixel art pirate RPG.
My main sources of inspiration are FTL for ship battles, but Seablip is a lot more story-driven game with a focus on exploring. This can be overlooked a little since it also is an open world; allowing you to switch between an action-packed pirate path or a more calm explorer path.
So the spoiler-free premise of the game is: Dive into a lengthy intro, grab a ship, and sail off to pirate glory or explore islands. You will soon, face a looming threat up north, a bit like Game of Thrones!
Seablip is my debut game and I work as a solo developer.
Any question or feedback from the demo, I am happy to answer! :)

Such a great game. It feels good in combat. Story is good. Atmosphere great.
I cant remember a game with this high challenge level.
Beating the game on hardest difficulty level in all the categories seems super challenging.
Much more than the typical souls game.
Enemies hit hard. Use cover. And the time limit of 10 hours with semi permadeath. Puzzles are no joke on level 3!
