Hey r/Games!
Ghostlore is an isometric action RPG inspired by popular 90s games such as Diablo. It features:
▶ Southeast Asian monsters, like
🧟♂️ Jiangshi - Chinese hopping zombies
👿 Rakshasa - shapeshifters like the D&D monster of the same name
🍌 Pontianak - female ghosts who live in banana trees
▶ Detailed item and character customization
▶ Unique skills and multiclass system
▶ Crafting and food system
▶ Tetris-like glyph system
▶ Procedurally generated maps
If you’re from Southeast Asia, a lot of these elements should be familiar to you! If you’re not, come find out about our rich culture, which is extremely underrepresented in games. Or just come for the pure hack and slash fun 😄
The main dev (u/Ateo88) has been working on it for over 3 years now, and I recently started helping out as we prepare for launch. There’s an old browser based demo (link below), but an updated demo will be out on Steam soon, and Early Access in March. Localization is planned …
Yo /r/Games!
I’m the solo developer of Crow Story, a short (~45min) 3D platformer about a cute little crow. It’s intended to be a mechanically-simple game with a light mood and great art.
Crow Story has you playing as Kuroh, a young crow that can only Jump and Dive. The game features 8 levels and a boss fight. The levels progressively build upon mechanics and obstacles from the previous such as moving platforms, jump pads, momentum, lava, and spinners.
The game is completely playable with keyboard and partially playable with controller (menus are a bit awkward with controller). There are also speedrunning features such as a timer, death counter, and skins unlocked via short completion times!
Best of all, its free!

Dogfighting seadogs! :)
Ahoy mateys, I’m the solo indie dev behind Pirates of Gravitae, a roguelike that takes the dogfight action of Luftrausers, mixes it with the campaign progression of FTL and Hades, and presents it in 2.5D views. It is coming to Steam Early Access in Spring of 2022, but you can check out the demo already:

And you can watch the trailer I put together here: https://youtu.be/uvTSPoyG7xc
My aim has been to infuse the frenetic action with sim like features, like physics based movement and AI, dynamic weather and flight conditions (watch out for storm winds that’ll toss you around like a leaf), and with energy management for activation of combat abilities (like you would with a MOBA). So you’ll need strategy and tactics on top of good reflexes.
The game has been in solid playable shape for a while, a good deal of major combat and campaign mechanics already implemented. I am aiming …
Hey r/Games
My name is Jordan and I’m one of the developers at Lanthanum Studios. We are a new indie studio developing our first game Soul Split!
Soul Split is an action-roguelike where death is not the end. We have a unique mechanic where you can fight alongside your spirit that will perform all your past actions leading up to your death. If you retrace your steps and conquer your past self you earn another life.
We’ve been working on this game for just over 8 months now and just released our first trailer! It would mean a lot to all of us if you checked it out, and if you like what you see and want to further support our development the best thing you can do is wishlist the game on Steam.
Thanks everyone, hope you all had a great holiday!
Hi /r/Games!
I’m David a solo developer working on Hexagourds.
Hexagourds is mixture of a builder, a puzzle, and a tile-matching game where you place tiles on a grid to make your own pumpkin patch! You can do fun pumpkin patch things like grow pumpkins, feed animals, and pick apples as you gain points for rotating, placing and connecting different tiles.
I made Hexagourds as a calming, relaxing alternative to the high-intensity multiplayer games that I usually play. So if you’re looking for a game like that, I think you’ll like Hexagourds.
Also Dorfromantik and Islanders were big inspirations for this game - So if you like those games, I think you’ll like Hexagourds.

Thank you everyone!
Rain is my favorite weather in real life and I always wondered what games are considered to have the best rain effects?
Horizon Dawn surprised me a bit with the weather changing.
Hey everyone. Im sure the question has been asked many times. What is or are, the accessories or hardware that helped improve your gaming the most.
Optional read I was going through chemotherapy last year and since I was home 24⁄7, my lovely wife decided to buy me a game laptop. That was a mistake on her part 🤣 while I know laptops are not ideal for gaming, its what I have. Its an Acer Nitro 5 (model# AN515-54-588t) and im wondering what people would suggest the best hardware upgrades for gaming and some accessories. I play mostly first person shooters. Right now 100% overwatch lol.
Btw I’ve now been cancer free for 6 months.
Thanks yall
There are steam discount so I’m looking for games to buy, i love games like the witcher where you fight lot of creatures, monsters and magical species or even aliens.
You know any game like that?
Just curious to know what games have been patched/updated for a really long time and which ones have the longest record. Below is a short list for ones I noticed when I started checking out of curiosity a few days ago. All release dates are based on their respective Steam page.
