Hey folks, I’m Brian - the solo developer behind the Erenshor project. Since my last update a month ago there’s a lot of new news!
Intro to the project: Erenshor is a single player RPG, developed in the spirit of classic MMORPGs. The combat is strategic and deliberate, the world is populated by a mixture of NPCs, monsters, and Simulated Players who fill the role of the server population.
The SimPlayers will remember you, invite you to things, join your groups, trade in an auction house, and more. They’ve also been a great way to drop hints for the player in global chats to help point him towards world secrets and quests.
Here’s a trailer that many folks may have already seen.
The news: I’m currently taking signups for a closed beta play test on steam. I’ve brought in the first group of users already and we’re digging up all the obvious bugs with intentions of opening it up to more folks soon in order to track down the more obscure stuff, …
Hi everyone!
For the past four and a half years I’ve been developing my own city building game, Scorchlands. I worked as a solo dev and recently I released the 1.0 version, leaving Early Access with 95% positive reviews and I’m quite happy with how the game turned out. I want to tell you all about it!
If you’re interested, it’s currently 50% off on Steam at 6$.

So Scorchlands is a city builder / puzzle game in a setting full of rudimentary magi-tech. We lead an expedition to the moon performed by a bird-like species called Givi.
Gameplay is a cross between balancing production numbers and a zen sand garden of arranging your buildings. There are no stockpiles, resource consumption is just limited by production of other resources. No building costs, rebuilding and moving is free. Everything is instant. You’re free to fiddle with things and lay out your production …
We are big fans of alien horror movies. Signs, X-Files, The Fourth Type, Dark skies, The Gracefield Incident etc. But where are all the alien abduction horror games? So, we decided to make our own. With lots of references!

But upon arriving at the farm, Taylor is faced with much more terrifying events. And what exactly is going on at the military base nearby?!

“Slam And Roll is a tribute to the ‘stage clear’ arcade games of the 90s, seamlessly blending nostalgic gameplay and a unique art style with modern standards. Enjoy battling endless enemies, challenging bosses, bonus stages, puzzle stages, and hidden secrets.
The world’s most renowned landmarks are under threat, and the usual defenses are useless against the alien attackers. But fear not! The sports club, armed with advanced sporting gear, and the ingenious Dr. McLabby are ready to fight back and save our planet!
Embark on a journey through over 200 stages, across 8 worlds and 4 game modes.”
We know arcade is kind of dead but we’re trying to release something good enough for everyone to enjoy in 2024. What to do you think guys? Does the game, via looking trailer and screenshots, show that there is a lot of content? Do you think the game looks too old school?
Game and a free demo are already available on Steam: …
Lost Lullabies - The Orphanage Chronicles is a Co-Op horror game set in 1980, inspired by the real stories of an orphanage ruined by a fire in 1960 Lowell. Playable with 1-4 players, the goal is to identify and expel malevolent spirits alone or with your team.
The main difference between our game and classic Phasmophobia-like games is that you can experience the story on your own. We have made every effort to strengthen this aspect.
Additionally, we’ve included the link to our gameplay trailer and the Steam link below :)

Hello,
What makes you return to single-player games you’ve played and/or completed previously? Is it the feeling of comfort you get from playing something familiar? Is it to re-experience a good story ? Is it the satisfying gameplay ?
There are several games I keep coming back to.
Prototype 1⁄2 for the fast-paced world traversal, the incredible power fantasy the game provides.
Mafia 1⁄2 because the story is just super good and I’m a massive fan of the gangster genre.
Monster Train and Slay the Spire because they’re fun deck builders. It’s fun when you can pull off broken combos and it’s easier to do on games I’ve already played before.
From time to time (5-6 years) I go back to playing some really old multi-player game that’s peer-to-peer and the multi-player is still alive. Stuff like Worms Armageddon, HoMM 3, the old Counter-Strike 1.6.
I sometimes even get the desire to go back to stuff like Adventure Quest or other …
Such a forgotten stunning childhood games i barely even remember anything, I wondered if their will ever be Lost Planet 4 ive found nothing to it online, just a raw rumors but with todays engines like Ue5 a revive of this games series could potentially be insane. It was graphically insane for its time… and i loved the coop and the story in the second game i truly hardly remember anything but i remembered back then it was a blast, even bossfights and decent coop with a hard but fair difficulty in the second game… and from what i remember even the third game was awesome but not as good as Lost Planet 2.
I find it amazingly accurate for the main quest completion time. I’m usually within +/- 25% of that figure.
So for me, that site’s contributors are filled with people like myself who progress through games in a similar fashion.
Use this thread to discuss whatever you’ve been playing lately (old or new, AAA or indie). Don’t just list the names of games as your entire post, make sure to elaborate with your thoughts on the games.
Make sure to use spoiler tags if you’re posting anything about a game’s plot that might significantly hurt the experience of others that haven’t played the game yet (no matter how old or new the game is).

Besides GTA 5, The Sims, and Fire Pro Wrestling World the ones i know
Even though its funny to see the sims dancing to like Screamo or something
I’ve been collecting several Microsoft rewards points for a while partly thanks to Game Pass and I collected enough points to be able to buy Dragon Quest XI S at a pretty good price (or if I keep saving I’ll go for Dragon Quest III 2D-HD), but I don’t know how good it is to buy the game on the Microsoft Store than on Steam, I mean it’s not the first time I play there because I’ve played a lot of games there and I’ve finished one or another and I don’t feel that the Xbox app is so bad or at least not to the degree of Epic but it’s true that nothing like playing from Steam and I’ve bought in the past some GP games on Steam.
Both versions at least have the plus of having a second type of device where to play (MS on Xbox Series and Steam on Steam Deck) so what do you think, should I opt for the Xbox app version or the Steam version?
