Developer of Popular Survival Game 'Vintage Story' Released Malware to Players

140 comments • reddit.com

It was recently discovered that Maltiez, a developer on the survival game Vintage Story, and creator of several popular Vintage Story mods, hid malware in one of his most popular mods. At the time of writing, his mod ‘Config Lib’ has over 650k downloads, and is a prerequisite for a multitude of other Vintage Story mods.

Config Lib contained intentionally hidden malware, which crashes your Vintage Story client if it detects that you are using it in conjunction with mods that Maltiez considers “cheating,” as well as other mods unrelated to cheating, such as one that adds a radio to the game. This was discovered when the creator of ‘Caves N Caverns,’ a mod which simply tweaks the caves within the game, discovered that Config Lib caused Vintage Story to crash and cover its own tracks if used alongside their mod.

This is a more detailed explanation of how the malicious code in Config Lib functions and disguised itself:

For now, SteamDB carries on as normal whilst we work with xPaw on the transition and start putting the team and resources it needs into it. Everything currently available for free will remain free, the browser extension will continue to be maintained, and the Discord and Steam group will remain purely SteamDB community spaces. Nexus Mods and SteamDB will also remain completely separate services, so you won’t need a Nexus Mods account to browse it.

OpenCritic - 83 average - 96% recommended - 23 reviews

Critic Reviews

A Gaming Network - Sami-Jo Perruzza - 9.5 / 10

Orbitals took me completely by surprise. It is charming, creative, visually gorgeous, and constantly fun to play with another person. While its story is a little too familiar at times, nearly everything else, from the music and animation to its clever puzzle tools and varied levels, comes together beautifully. If you want a co-op game that captures the feeling of watching a beloved retro anime with a friend while still delivering fresh, satisfying gameplay, Orbitals should absolutely be on your radar.

But Why Tho? - Eddie De Santiago - 9.5 / 10

Whether it’s the visuals, a puzzle’s solution, or bumping into a screaming alien creature, Orbitals is awe-inspiring.

CD Projekt Red: If you want a cost-driven development, you cannot make The Witcher 4. CD Projekt Red never considered charging for The Witcher 3 Remastered, talks Cyberpunk 2077

239 comments • reddit.com

From The Game Business article and talk show today, they talk about Witcher 4, Cyberpunk 2077 and Witcher 3 Remastered:

“Everybody has a biology built into them. We were like, ‘if we keep doing things the way we do, and we have a lot of ideas, we’re only going to make X, Y, Z before we retire, or naturally retire from this place’,” says CD Projekt Red joint CEO Michał Nowakowski on today’s The Game Business Show.

“So how can we do more, but not compromise on quality? This was the predominant thought behind that. And then we started thinking, ‘Okay, what’s the business around that?’ This is my biggest wish. I’d like us to look back and say, ‘Okay, we did it, we told two, three stories instead of just one within that moment, and all of them were top-notch’.”

The cynic might suggest that there’s another, more commercial reason why CD Projekt Red would want to develop multiple major games at once. But Nowakowski believes financial growth isn’t entirely down to making more games. The …

Sharp writing, forgettable combat: The Blood of Dawnwalker is a solid vampiric RPG worth playing for its story and quests alone, if you can stomach the gameplay jank.

So I recently started playing Factorio and been quite obsessed with it.

Last night when I went to sleep all I could think about was improving and expanding my rail network in Factorio.

I was constantly picturing placing intersections and signals over and over again in my head like having sleep paralysis but instead of not being able to control your body, not being able to control your thoughts.

I’ve had this several times when I’m obsessed with a game for longer than a few days or a week.

Hi there, r/Games!

💣Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2671210/Minesweeper_Collector_2

💣Trailer: https://youtu.be/7T5wSi_l5tM

💣Platform: Steam and mobile

Yesterday marked the game’s 2nd anniversary on Steam! And I released a major update 2.2.0, featuring a new quest system and two new chapters in the story! While testing the quests, I realized just how much the game had been missing this feature and how much more interesting it made the gameplay. I’m really glad I finally got around to this and added/fixed a bunch of little details.

I’m very grateful to the players for their feedback and comments, as they help me notice things I might otherwise overlook. I’d also appreciate any suggestions or comments here.

Wandering Alchemist - Vlyn - Fully free, no ads, offline GPS walking game [Android/iOS]

10 comments • reddit.com

Hey, this is a solo hobby project of mine I recently released for both Android and iOS. Fully free, no ads, no data collection, no in-app purchases (except “Support the Developer”, feel free to ignore it) and playable offline.

Video footage for a walking game was a bit tough, but here’s some gameplay of a harvest minigame (there’s a whole bunch), brewing a potion and selling it.

Android Play Store

iOS Release announcement

What’s it about?

You walk in the real world, collect resources and brew potions for merchants. The game has a building system, so you can decorate your neighborhood however you like. It has a day/night cycle, lighting effects and a procedurally generated map (playable worldwide). Optionally you can download a street map for orientation (one-time download, no data usage afterwards). Only GPS is needed, it’s fully offline and singleplayer :)

Always eager for feedback, let me know what you think 💚

Michael Test — a horror game where you find the lie hidden in a painting (Steam demo out now)

3 comments • reddit.com

You listen to an audio recording of someone’s final moments. Then you look at a painting that shows that exact moment — and find what’s wrong with it. Something missing. Something that shouldn’t be there. Once you find the lie, you restore the truth.

That’s the core loop of Michael Test, a first-person psychological horror game about observation and listening.

The demo is now live on Steam. It covers the early part of the game and introduces the atmosphere and basic mechanics.

Steam:

I’m the developer, and if you give the demo a try, I’d really appreciate hearing what you think.

Thanks for taking a look.

Hey r/pcgaming, 2B from PatchRadar here!

We’re back with another big update. First off, a huge thank you to everyone who checked out PatchRadar through our previous posts and shared feedback with us. A lot of what we’ve added and changed since then has come directly from suggestions we’ve received from this community.

For anyone who hasn’t seen our previous posts: we started PatchRadar because we wanted a dedicated place for keeping up with the games we actually care about. Instead of checking different social media accounts, websites and stores just to find a patch note, update or release date, PatchRadar brings official information from developers and publishers together in one place. No social media algorithms, no clickbait and no ads.

We have quite a few things to share this time:

The Web App is finally live!

This has probably been the most requested thing since we first posted PatchRadar here: you can now use PatchRadar directly in your browser.

Grand Theft Auto VI Netflix Showcase Mega Thread

2073 comments • reddit.com
Hello r/games

There is a Grand Theft Auto 6 gameplay reveal happening soon. Unfortunately, due to our rules not allowing links to paywalled sources, which would include Netflix, the actual video can’t be posted here. Additionally, trying to play wack-a-mole with people reuploading the video to YouTube and then getting it copyright struck doesn’t really appeal to any of us (and also breaks a different rule). Especially since Rockstar will be posting the video itself to YouTube six hours after the Netflix premier.

So we decided to make this megathread. You can talk about the Netflix video here without actually having to post it.

As a note, things we will allow to be posted:
- The actual video once Rockstar uploads it to YouTube
- Articles about the Netflix video
Things we will not allow to be posted:
- Reuploads of the Netflix video that are not from Rockstar
- Individual threads about your personal opinion of the reveal. Keep those to the comments of relevant threads. …

Critic Reviews

CBR - Mark O’Callaghan - 9 / 10

Star Wars: Zero Company is an incredible Star Wars experience. The exploration, along with some of the grittier aspects of the Clone Wars, is enjoyable. The moments that happen, which we won’t spoil, are incredible.

CGMagazine - Chris De Hoog - 9 / 10

Star Wars Zero Company is strong as a strategy game and as a Star Wars story, but truly shines through its high customization and replayability.

COGconnected - Mark Steighner - 84 / 100

Star Wars Zero Company is the overlapping center of a venn diagram with Star Wars in one circle, and XCOM-style tactical combat in the other. It doesn’t take either one in bold, new directions, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. This is not XCOM in a Star Wars costume, because the mechanics, setting, and narrative …

Foxhole and the beauty of the classic MMO

120 comments • i.redd.it

-

An HD album of screenshots I made in-game.

I wanted to post my review of Foxhole to raise awareness of it, since it is my belief that the game is a hidden gem, and I’m genuinely baffled how almost no one has heard of it. It is an MMO that has been running for almost ten years.
No AI was used here since I find no need for it.

-

Foxhole is a strange game. It is an MMO about a world-war era conflict between two fantasy countries, that at this point has been raging on for centuries.

It looks like a strategy game with its birds’-eye view camera, but every soldier fighting, every truck driver, pilot, factory foreman, helmsman for a large warship, his gunners and damage control staff, is each a single player.

Barnburners is my attempt to bring back semi-realistic arcade hockey to PC

60 comments • i.redd.it

Hey ya’ll, I recently released the demo for my hockey game, Barnburners, ahead of my original goal of at Octobers Next Fest. I did not want that to be the first time a lot of people played it, discovered game breaking bugs, and never touched it again. Releasing it now gives me time to keep updating it, find the bugs I have missed (or make sure online is working), and tune the hockey around actual player feedback.

I love games like Tape to Tape, but I have been missing a different style of arcade hockey, something that takes me back to NHL 94, and the NHL Hitz games. Full 5v5 play with a real bench and line changes, penalties and power plays, my take on fights, and online. The full game is also being built around a franchise mode that features all the things I would expect from a franchise mode, albiet a tad bit simpler, and even an online franchise mode to play with your friends (though that is still very early on in development).

The demo has four teams, short 1:30 periods, …

Do you feel like video game graphics today compared to 2017 - 2019 has advanced enough to justify only optimizing games around the latest hardware?

127 comments • reddit.com

For the record I think game devs should to the best of their ability optimize around as much hardware as they can I’m not the biggest fan of spending thousands of dollars every few years (especially with these current prices) just to play the latest major titles (although I seldom play the big studio games anyway) at 1080p 60fps without the game looking like crap since imo we’re getting diminishing returns in terms of graphical advancements going from 2018 to today is nowhere near as big of a difference as going from 2010 to 2018 same gap.

All I ask for is this. If your game on High settings 1080p looks like it could’ve came out in 2018 then it should be able to run at 60fps, 1080p high on hardware that could run 2018 games on the same settings.

If your game looks slightly or moderately better than games from 2017 - 2019 then it should only be slightly or moderately more demanding

Valve is now 30 years old.

Valve was officially founded on August 24 1996 by Gabe Newell and Mike Harrington.

In 1998 they released Half-Life, which was revolutionary for the FPS genre.

noclip produced a great documentary for its 20th Anniversary that I highly recommend.

Valve then kept working on some things, which also included hiring the creators of Counter-Strike and turning the mod into a full-fledged game.

And then came Half-Life 2, which was another big step for FPS due to the integration of physics. While that was a big thing, the more important aspect to HL2 might arguably be the requirement of Steam.

While Steam was already a thing since 2003, it was HL2 that brought it to a wider audience due to the game’s popularity. The requirement caused a lot of criticism, because HL2 basically acted as a trojan horse to establish Steam.

Kaperfahrt - Kleinod Games - Open-world pirate sandbox where you rise from a single sloop to a feared legend in a Caribbean of 200 rival captains

31 comments • reddit.com

Announcement Trailer

Hi r/Games, I am Leon, a solo developer from Germany. Kaperfahrt is my attempt to build the successor that the great pirate sandbox from 2004, Sid Meier’s Pirates!, never got.

You start with one sloop and an open Caribbean. Board ships in close naval combat and keep what you take, up to four of them sailing at your side in formation. Run trade between five rival houses and watch prices move across the map when you blockade a harbor. Hunt the 23 named pirates of the Blacklist, each with their own crew and fighting style, and work your way from a nobody into a name people know.

What gives those choices weight is that the Caribbean does not sit still around you. 200 captains sail their own routes, trade, scheme and go to war on their own. The sea you sail into on hour twenty is not the sea you started in. Some of that is their doing, the rest is yours, and the map keeps both.

Status. The Steam page is live and Playtest signups are open on the store page. The …

I'm making a speedrun-friendly puzzly platformer where you play music to create platforms (SongRunner)

4 comments • reddit.com

Hello! I’m making SongRunner, one of the winners/favorites in the 2025 GMTK game jam, and I’ve been working on it since then, so a little over a year now. SongRunner is a 2D platformer where you need to play music to create platforms. No musical knowledge is necessary though! Your notes fit right in with the soundtrack, and the stages often feel more puzzly than musical. My goal is that you have at least a few moments where you stop and admire a neat little bop that you made before moving on to the next room.

This demo is a short standalone section of the full game, featuring 5 condensed versions of worlds from the full game. Each world has its own original song, instrument, and mechanics. All of the stages are handcrafted - no generation or randomization and definitely no AI anything. The fifth stage in particular was a huge undertaking to add, but I’m so happy with how it turned out.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 is another home-run release by Konami, which continues to do a great job of making its back catalog available on modern systems.

Console-Tribe - Simone Cantini - Italian - 65 / 100

Metal Gear Solid Master Collection: Volume 2 is yet another sign that Konami is coasting on Snake’s legacy, relying on a brand that keeps shining despite everything. The three included games remain heavyweight works, still capable of telling a crucial chapter of gaming history, but the package around them is so lazy it makes the already modest Volume 1 look almost committed. The bare‑bones upscale, recycled assets, blurry cutscenes, and total lack …

Decimation: Sci-fi Tower Defense with ARPG-like hero combat [Early Access Release post]

1 comments • store.steampowered.com
Hello r/pcgaming! Developer of the game here. Decimation just recently launched into Early Access after about 26 months of solo development and just wanted to share it with the community.

It’s tower defense at its core, but placing towers well isn’t enough to win. You directly control a hero on the field with ARPG-style combat, where you’ll be dodging attacks, timing 4 active skills and picking up power-ups while your towers hold the line.

Elite enemies also drop special effect orbs that pause the fight and let you pick from random battle effects (damage boosts, speed manipulation, etc.), so no two runs play quite the same.

What’s currently in the EA version:
- 8 campaign levels across the first 2 of 4 planned Acts (3.5 hrs of actual level gameplay in the campaign)
- 2 of 3 heroes playable, 5 tower types, RPG-style leveling and equipment crafting
- 2 Endless Challenge levels
The game also has a demo, if you’d like to try it out:

Changes/Fixes that the game now has:
- Implemented a lightweight wrapper to resolve modern hardware incompatibilities.
- Added native widescreen and ultrawide support for all modern resolutions and aspect ratios.
- Implemented camera scaling that automatically adjusts the field of view (FOV) based on monitor aspect ratio.
- Added a multi-monitor mouse lock option to confine the cursor to the game window.
- Added an FPS limiter to lock the frame rate to a chosen value.
- Introduced a lightweight, real-time in-game overlay (press F11 to open, ESC to close) for instant adjustments to FPS limits and FOV multipliers.
- Locked the main menu to its original 4:3 bounds to preserve hard-coded UI assets.
- Capped the manual FOV slider at roughly 110% on ultrawide displays to prevent engine stretching and graphical glitches.
- Verified stability.

Critic Reviews

Analog Stick Gaming - Jordan Andow - 9.5 / 10

Mortal Shell II is my favorite Soulslike since Elden Ring, and considering the titles that have released since then, it’s my highest recommendation that I can make. Cold Symmetry knew the assignment, and absolutely nailed it.

Cerealkillerz - Christoph Heick - German - 8 / 10

Mortal Shell 2 doesn’t reinvent the Soulslike genre, but it excels in the details. Its fast, dynamic combat, tactical Shell system, and flexible builds make for an enjoyable experience, even though the limited weapon variety and talent trees leave some room for improvement. The difficulty feels well balanced for newcomers, while experienced Soulslike players may find it a little too easy. What stands out most, however, is the …

Critic Reviews

Analog Stick Gaming - Jeff M Young - 9 / 10

The Sinking City 2 isn’t quite a true sequel or that it feels as part of its heritage, the steps made to evolve the series into something more financially viable is a smart play and Frogwares has done their homework, or at least peaked over the shoulder in front of them to create a very impressive attempt at the genre.

But Why Tho? - Mick Abrahamson - 7 / 10

The Sinking City 2 is difficult and pushes you to your limits. Yet every time it sings and embraces the incomprehensible Lovecraftian nightmares, Faye and Calvin’s story brings it all down.

Medic Mayhem release date announced: This friday!

6 comments • i.redd.it

I verified this with mods before posting.

Our first commercial game launches in couple of days. A game called Medic Mayhem, which I made with a couple of friends, is launching on Steam next Friday.

It’s a local co-op/PvP action chaos brawler where players race around in toy ambulances, trying to rescue as many little toy soldiers as possible while preventing the opposing team from doing the same.

The game is fully supported on Steam Deck, and we’ve also tested Steam Remote Play Together. It works great for playing together over a LAN, although over the internet the latency can be too high unless you have a fiber connection and the players are relatively close to each other.

You can support the game by adding it to your Steam wishlist. The algorithm gods will appreciate it:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3543300/Medic_Mayhem/

The game has been developed by a three-person team for two years, averaging about 3 hours per week alongside our day jobs, so roughly 1,000 person-hours …

Wagotabi is an educational RPG that teaches you Japanese from scratch. As you progress through the adventure, English is gradually replaced by Japanese, until almost all content is fully in Japanese.

Leviathan: Rhino - Amortiz Games - Psychological horror about an old man living in a dying village that will soon be crushed by a giant Leviathan.

1 comments • reddit.com

Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4784510/Leviathan_Rhino
Trailer: https://youtu.be/IZXj20tSxzo

The game is the result of a collaboration between two indie developers. Solo developer Andrey Amortiz made a small but deeply atmospheric horror game with a great visual style, and had no idea how to tell anyone it exists. Solarsuit Games has already shipped several horror games, so we helped Andrey put the trailer together and offered to take on the announcement. The themes of the game and its atmosphere got to us.

You play as an old dying man, and a colossal leviathan is bearing down on his village. Everyone who could leave has gone, but you have nowhere to go and no reason to.

Leviathan: Rhino is a short psychological horror about the last days of a man who stays. He drinks with the neighbour who also stayed, walks the yard, keeps an eye on the cow. And the closer the thing outside gets, the less the world bothers pretending to make sense. There is nowhere to run. All that …

Sucks to be in the sticks - coAction - 2D vampires in a post-Soviet decaying town

2 comments • reddit.com

Hey all!

I’m a solo dev from Finland behind the game! I grew up in the middle of nowhere, in the north and as a child, I dreamed that someone would write a book/make a film/make a game about the place. I grew up and just made it myself.

Check it out: Steam page | Trailer

The game is about a newly turned vampire who lives in a small rural post-Soviet town. There are a few vampires, a few humans, and a ton of things to do. The conflict starts with you getting addicted to drinking blood, while you should really be drinking energy, like all the good *khm* vampires around you. How would that turn out?

Gears of War E-day PVE and PVP free open beta starts in 5 hours! Most fun I've had with the series in 15+ years.

48 comments • store.steampowered.com

It has the same core, but feels modernised.

Tldr: I really like it. I hope people give it a chance. PVE mode is really nice. Almost no monetisation, earned unlocks. Series are always great co-op games with your best bro and has a surprising amount of heart. Gameplay is solid. Don’t give up if the first games online are tough. Hope this post convinces some more people to try it.

I like the direction it is heading and hope lots of people give it a proper chance. Not to mention they are going down the route of almost everything being unlockable through normal gameplay. It’s so refreshing to see this in a modern multiplayer game and I hope more people join the grind. The fun thing with Gears is that you are always making progress, even if you aren’t the best player. It may take a little longer, but we all get there in the end. Based on the beta, it seems that progress counts in PVE and PVP for lots of stuff too.

There are two modes to try, Horde Siege (PVE) which is an …

Review Aggregator:

OpenCritic - 76 average - 77% recommended - 13 reviews

Critic Reviews

8Bit/Digi - Stan Rezaee - 9 / 10

Agent 64: Spies Never Die not only recreates the experience of playing GoldenEye 007 and Perfect Dark on the N64, but it is a reminder of why they are among the best games of all time.

Console Creatures - David Pietrangelo - 9 / 10

Agent 64: Spies Never Die is an impressive retro shooter with plenty of modern touches across the visuals, music, level design, and gameplay. It’ll be a great time for anyone who grew up playing late 90’s shooters.

Game Sandwich - John Hansen - 6 / 10

Agent 64: Spies Never Die likely won’t win you over unless you have played and enjoyed the games that inspired it. If you don’t have a history with GoldenEye 007 or Perfect Dark, I wouldn’t recommend you try it because the …

Calamity, Terraria largest content mod, is ceasing development due to most developers retiring or moving away with the recent drama regarding the owner.

TL:DR: the Owner of Calamity was recently caught in a drama involving grooming kids on Discord, and many of its mod developers are feeling both uncomfortable about the owner, and have lost the passion to continue developing the mod since this is their 2nd time the owner was caught grooming, (even worse that it was under a different owner first, and now this owner too).

I just wanted to make a post about this game in hopes that I help the player base grow.

The Darwin project is a battle Royale that came out years ago, but who’s servers died a long time ago.

However they released an update to it a couple of days ago and now the servers are back online!

If anyone has never heard of this battle Royale I highly recommend giving it a shot, it’s F2P and the mechanics of it are unique. The only weapons you have are a bow and an axe.

I’m so glad they revived this game it is very addicting!

Katanaut - Voidmaw - An action-roguelite with a cosmic horror twist!

18 comments • reddit.com
🎥 Katanaut Trailer
🎮 Steam Page

Hey r/Games, I’m the solo developer behind Katanaut.

It’s a cosmic horror action roguelite set on a massive space station falling apart around you, with fast melee combat, guns, skills, implants, and a lot of build variety. The easiest pitch is Dead Cells-style runs with Katana Zero pacing and Ninja Gaiden resiliency, wrapped in a Dead Space atmosphere.

Its been a pretty surreal few days for me. Ive spent years working on Katanaut mostly alone in my room, and a couple days ago it was featured on the front page of Steam as a Daily Deal. Seeing it sitting there after all that time was honestly pretty hard to process.

I knew the Daily Deal was coming, so I didnt want the occasion to just be about putting the game on sale. I spent the last few months building the biggest update Ive made since launch and released it alongside it.

Update 1.2: Into the Void adds:
- Warp 4, a new endgame difficulty where the station runs in reverse and new …

I’ve been working as a programmer for more than seven years. I balance two jobs with my dream of making a game, and I work on it in my free time. Every time, I either didn’t have enough money, didn’t have enough experience, or simply didn’t have the energy. Life kept getting in the way.

Dungeons of Shalnor: The New Age - Johnny Ostad - Dark Fantasy First-Person CRPG

5 comments • reddit.com

Hello there,
This is the first time I’m showing this game on r/Games.
If you are into old-school Dark fantasy, RPGs then you will love my game.

My name is Johnny an I’m a solodev, I’ve made a lot of games but nothing like this before.

In this game you create your own character with a unique set of skills. You get to explore the world and delve into perilous dungeons. As you level up you will find many powerful items and equipment.

You can also learn professions such as Alchemy, Inspection, Mercantile and more.

Each Race and Class comes with its own unique set of skills, but how you build your character further is entirely up to you. You can choose to play as a Knight who specializes in Fire magic, or as a Mage who equips heavy armor and wields a large hammer, or perhaps even a noble and righteous Templar who has mastered Lockpicking.

How many gamers actually use photo mode creatively?

135 comments • reddit.com

I feel like photo mode is one of those features that a lot of people open once or twice and then forget about.

But there’s a whole community of people who basically treat it like photography inside a virtual world.

They play around with composition, lighting, focal length, depth of field, camera angles, and timing to create shots rather than just capture what happened on screen.

That’s usually called virtual photography.

I’m curious how common it actually is outside that community.

Do you ever spend proper time creating shots in photo mode, or is it mostly something you ignore while playing?
I’ve spent 7 years making a Choplifter-inspired game in my spare time. Choppa: Rescue Rivals launches August 13!

10 comments • youtu.be

I’m Antti, founder of a small game studio in Finland. Since 2019 I’ve been making Choppa: Rescue Rivals in whatever hours I could find around a day job and small kids. It’s finished, and it’s out on August 13.

It exists because of Choplifter. I know Dan Gorlin wrote the original for the Apple II in ’82 before it got everywhere else but the version I actually put hours into as a kid was on C64 (which was the most popular home computer in Finland at one point). I got really invested in the chopper phycis, instead of anything else in the game. The chopper movement felt like such a revelation back in the day.

So when I sat down to make my own for the PC, I asked what would happen if I focused a bit more on the physics and made a physical ladder as well, that the “hostages” could grab onto. There are no guns in Choppa. You can’t shoot anything, not even the enemies, and you can’t hurt the people you’re there to save. That’s deliberate design choice, not a limitation we ran out …

A year ago I shared A Game About Penguins here. Tomorrow, it finally releases on Steam.

2 comments • i.redd.it

Some of you might remember this game from when I first shared it here about a year ago.

Back then, A Game About Penguins was a much smaller project. The original idea came from something pretty simple: a lot of our friends had moved to different cities and countries, and we missed having a game where we could just hang out, talk, mess around, and make stupid memories together.

So we started building one ourselves.

Since that first post, the game has grown quite a bit. You can now explore the island with up to 12 players, fish and collect different sea creatures, customize your penguin, decorate your home, find pets, complete NPC quests, race, play arcade games and minigames, swim underwater, build things in the sandbox, and of course slide around and cause unnecessary penguin chaos with your friends.

Seeing people here compare the early version to things like Club Penguin and Webfishing was honestly really fun, and it helped us realize that the social side of the game was what …
Any tips with WASD?

45 comments • reddit.com

I do want to say that I am primarily a console gamer. Controller has always been my forte and I am very well aware that the vast majority of games exclusive to Steam or otherwise available through the PC variations of console, libraries, support controller, that’s mostly what I’ve been using and will probably use for the most part.

That being said, in spite of simply being able to use my controller for all of console and 90% of PC games on Steam, some don’t support it or games like VALORANT (which I don’t intend to play, but nonetheless, I’m using as an example) give a much better experience on mouse and keyboard.

After making sure, my game doesn’t run like shit since I’m using a laptop I played quick play with my friend on overwatch and holy crap not only is my aim bad but I cannot stray left right or back for the life of me nor easily access my abilities. Are there any tips? Or should I just stick the controller if the game allows it?

I want to say that this is not about hardware, …

Katanaut - Major Update Trailer

36 comments • youtu.be

Kind of a surreal day for me.

I’m the solo dev behind Katanaut, a fast action roguelite that’s basically my attempt at smashing together the speed of Katana Zero, the runs and progression of Dead Cells, and the atmosphere of something like Dead Space.

I’ve spent years working on this game alone in my room, and today it somehow ended up on the front page of Steam as a Daily Deal.

I’m not gonna lie, seeing it sitting there is a little overwhelming. There were a lot of points over the years where I genuinely had no idea if this game would ever go anywhere, so having a moment like this feels absolutely massive to me.

I knew the Daily Deal was coming for a little while, and I really didn’t want the day to just be “hey, my game is on sale.” I wanted there to actually be something new for both returning players and anyone discovering Katanaut for the first time, so I spent the last few months building the biggest update I’ve made since …
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Multiplayer Mod — First Public Release (v0.11.5)

3 comments • reddit.com

I’ve been reworking a multiplayer mod for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II with a small group, and this is the first time it’s going public outside the Discord.

TLDR;

The KCD2 Multiplayer Mod has been reworked and released on Github! It features many new things, such as shared aggro, combat, a custom working Dice minigame, custom faces and more. There are many features to come since this is still a Beta release, but progress is flowing smoothly.
It operates similar to an MMO currently. You are playing your own save, but you can mess around with your friends while you are at it. Enjoy the world together or at your own pace!

The most important thing to understand first:
This is not a shared open world. Every player keeps their own full save and their own story, similar to an MMO. Everyone’s playing their own solo game, but you can see each other, fight together, and mess with each other (or the Troskowitz Chickens) while doing it. Nobody’s quests, choices, or …

After reaching over 5000 CCU on Steam earlier this year, the first major Update for my game "Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot" is out now!

5 comments • youtube.com

Hi!

I’m ichbinhamma and I’ve worked on this game solo for over 4 years. This first major update, after the full release earlier in January this year, starts a new Season! A new Season encourages players to start a new clan of dwarves, as only new clans qualify for the seasonal leaderboards - but it’s completely optional. All content and personal progress persists throughout Seasons.

The game turned out to be a “relatively giant hit” (source: gamesradar), managed to sell over 300 000 units and gathered over 2 500 ‘Very Positive (82%)’ reviews on Steam (Steam starts showing regional ratings after 2 000 reviews, so this number might vary for you if you check). This success has enabled me to go full time and found my own indie studio (Hamma Studios) last year!

We’re a Ukrainian studio making Hollow Home, a narrative-heavy CRPG about the war we’re living through - our final Kickstarter is live and we’re giving away four $25 Steam Gift Cards

55 comments • reddit.com

Hello everyone,

I’m Valerii, head dev of a Ukrainian indie studio based in Kyiv, currently working on a narrative-driven CRPG about our war, called Hollow Home.

We started this project in 2022, in the months after the full-scale invasion began, and we have kept at it because we believe it is a story that people should hear. And in the months and years since, we are glad that there were others who believed likewise.

This is our story

Hollow Home is a story driven narrative RPG where you play as a 14 year old boy named Maksym, and the story begins during the last quotidian day of his childhood. You get to take a stroll through the neighborhood and get a glimpse of everyday life before the siege and bombings start reshaping the city into a much harsher and colder place.

To survive, you have to navigate this new environment and choose who you can trust, who you want to help, and which actions are most likely to secure survival. You also can’t help everyone, and giving aid to one …

Review Aggregator:

Critic Reviews

Analog Stick Gaming - Jordan Andow - 7.5 / 10

Beast of Reincarnation is a good action RPG with some excellent ideas, but it needed a more focused collection of systems and a stronger final act to become the exceptional experience it occasionally threatens to be.

But Why Tho? - Abdul Saad - 9 / 10

Beast of Reincarnation, despite some of its flaws, is a well-designed, beautiful, and engaging action RPG with several unique, well-executed elements. It succeeds in almost everything that it set out to do and, if done well, could be a great new series for the developer.

COGconnected - James Paley - 75 / 100

Hi, I’m a solo developer from Germany and I’m working full-time on this game for about 15 months now. Probably, it will take me another 2 years until release so what you see here is rather an alpha state.

TLDR; Manage survivors’ needs (hunger, fatigue, injuries), assign them to tasks (generate energy, build upgrades, repair and customize robots, and more). Go on expeditions to salvage resources, find robots and survivors, and fight the Nadir.

You are Ada Dupont, and you are searching for lost research protocols to find a solution against the Nadir. Search for survivors, customize combat robots, and build a powerful squad to explore multiple locations. Gather resources while the Nadir are attacking relentlessly. You can revisit locations multiple times and plan ahead on how to handle different tasks.

The game is divided into two parts:

What Makes a Hero - Divine Entertainment - A Pixelart "Papers, Please"-genre fantasy shopkeeper game where every customer is a puzzle

2 comments • reddit.com

Gameplay trailer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV6NOKVXy8g

Hi r/Games! Happy Indie Sunday!

We’re a two-person indie team working on What Makes a Hero, a narrative-driven fantasy shopkeeper game inspired by titles like Papers, Please.

Imagine you run a weapon shop in the province of Caspena - a fantasy land of adventure and opportunity, serving adventurers preparing for dangerous quests. Instead of simply choosing an item from a list, you have to listen to their stories, examine the information they provide, consult your Adventure Codex, and figure out what equipment they actually need.

Sometimes, however, giving customers what they ask for may not be the best choice.

The adventurers you equip can succeed, fail, disappear, or return later - and the decisions you make behind the counter gradually become part of a larger branching story. Some customers will also bring unusual problems, questionable offers, and opportunities that have little to do with ordinary shopkeeping.

Lunar Flight is one of those games that never really left my head. I wanted more of that hands-on, physics-driven lunar hauling - so I started making Void Cargo.

You’ll transport cargo across hostile terrain, face dangerous hazards, and make tense decisions when things go wrong. Complete contracts, earn credits, upgrade your ship, and use that progression to tackle tougher and riskier jobs.

Palm Sugar: A Village Story releases August 12 – Meet the world of Bellampakam!

3 comments • youtu.be

Hi r/pcgaming!

We’re the developers and publishers of Palm Sugar: A Village Story!

Palm Sugar is a narrative driven indie game set in the fictional village of Bellampakam which was inspired by rural South-India. You play as Seenu, a young man determined to protect his village from a dangerous drug cartel, while meeting memorable characters throughout the journey like his girlfriend, Geetha and his best friend, Ramana!

We wanted Bellampakam to feel authentic, so the game features an original soundtrack inspired by the setting and features voice acting in English, Telugu, and Hindi, with subtitles available in additional languages.

The game launches on August 12, and we’d love to hear your thoughts or answer any questions about the game and its development!

PoE2 video addressing graphics issue crashes
I spent 7 years and my personal savings making Satelital. I love space and puzzles, so I decided to combine them into a game that rewards curiosity over tutorials. Even the engine was written from scratch.

57 comments • i.redd.it

I’ve always loved games that make you think and let you discover things for yourself. That’s what inspired me to spend the last 7 years making Satelital.

I made everything myself: the engine from scratch, the puzzles, the programming, the art, the music, and every other part of the game.

It’s a space puzzle game where nothing is explained. Every mechanic is something you discover through observation and experimentation.

The demo will be available this September and I’m planning to release the full game at the end of 2026.

If you’d like to take a look, here’s the Steam page:

After years of solo work I’ve released my co-op automation/terraforming game Skyformer in 1.0!

Skyformer (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2305210/) is a terraforming/automation/survival game that I’ve been making for the last few years with my own game engine and handmade art. Last year I released it in single player early access, and since then have been working hard to address player feedback and support multiplayer co-op.

Today I’ve launched it in 1.0 with up to 4 player co-op supported!

Check out the co-op / 1.0 trailer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZzEhP3KO3U

Some of the new features since early access include:
- Highly customizable game modes/settings, with anything from pure creative to hardcore.
- Jetpack + multi-jumps for improved building and navigation.
- New automation features (e.g. planting system automation).
- More creative control over the world (ability to plant/remove individual plants in the wild).
- Countless new QoL features.
- Improved world design, game balance, and tutorial.
- Revamped UIs to be simpler and easier to use.
- Many new base-building …

Metropolis 1998 - Yesbox Studios - City Builder - 90s Aesthetics, Modern Features

10 comments • reddit.com
Steam | Subreddit | YouTube

Hey everyone! Over the last 4.5 years I’ve been working on a modern city builder with 90s/00s aesthetics, inspired by the pixel art simulation games of the 90s and 00s, Cities: Skylines, and Dwarf Fortress. Check out my subreddit for clips!

Features:
- The game features granular demand, based on the needs of your citizens. No more “build more commercial zones”. Instead you’ll see the specific demand for each type of business
- Individual agent simulation. Agents will have schedules, visit friends, go to work, shop, eat, etc.
- Real time traffic, just like Cities: Skylines
- You have the option to design your own buildings, save them as blueprints, and share with friends
- You can see interior and exterior views of all buildings
- All the classic city builder features
Also, I am excited to share the game is now in alpha, and the demo has been updated (last update was about a year ago)!

Hey r/Games,

If you’re looking for a chill, meditative indie experience with satisfying gameplay loops, check out A Game About Chopping Trees, it just launched on July 15, 2026!

Grab your axe and lose yourself in peaceful forests. Chop down trees with weighty, physics-based swings, process the logs, sell the timber, and invest in upgrades like a sharper axe, better stamina, stronger grip, and more efficient techniques. No timers, no pressure, no stress, just pure rhythmic satisfaction.

When you’re ready for a new grove, hop on your handcar, pump the levers, and enjoy a relaxing ride through serene landscapes. After clearing an area, you can plant saplings to help the forest regrow and keep the cycle going. It’s wonderfully wholesome.

Key features:
- First-person relaxing simulation with great chopping feedback
- Progression through meaningful upgrades
- Solo or online co-op
- Handcar travel between biomes
- Replanting for that satisfying living-forest feel
- …
Hollow Home - Twigames Inc. - Isometric narrative RPG about a city under siege, inspired by real events during the siege of Mariupol, seen through the eyes of a teenager trying to survive the horrors of war

7 comments • reddit.com

We are Twigames, a Ukrainian indie studio currently working on a narrative RPG about our war, Hollow Home.

What gave us the strength to tell this story were the myriad experiences of real, regular people surviving the harsh conditions of a city under siege. But unlike most games on the topic of war, we did not want Hollow Home to be about soldiers, generals and their battles, or the grand games played by those in positions of power.

Instead, we wanted to tell the stories of ordinary civilians and the destinies of those who have to continue on with their lives while their city is consumed by the fires of conflict.

What Hollow Home is About

Hollow Home is a story-driven narrative RPG where you play as a 14 year old boy named Maksym, and the story begins during the last normal day of his childhood: you get to take a stroll through your neighborhood and get a glimpse of the everyday life you had before the siege the next day, transforming the city into a much harsher and colder place. …

Thoughts about Early Access in Digital Deluxe editions of games

10 comments • reddit.com

So right off the bat, I’ll just say I am not really a huge fan of this idea of holding a game back a few days and charging for it. I understand from a publishing point of view this is basically free money - but something about this feels incredibly slimy to me. But it just kind of hit me right now while looking at the new Halo Campaign Evolved on Steam. It’s currently been out for over a day and a half in its early access period and yet the Digital Deluxe edition is still the same price.

So in my opinion, the early access is a part of that price tag. I understand that you’re also getting skins, gun models, enemy models, different osts, whatever it may be. But a part of that price is the several days of being able to play the game early. However if I wanted to buy this edition at a later date, that early access is useless. So effectively I am paying the same price that someone else paid for which they received more.

In my opinion the price should lower after those …

Nintendo IP co-owned with other companies, a list and full explanation of the matter

16 comments • reddit.com

I don’t think a thread like this was done before so I thought it would be interesting to point out the franchises that Nintendo doesn’t own alone. Most people don’t know this but multiple of their series are co-owned.

First we need to establish some things. Ownership comes in two forms, copyright and trademark, and here I’m going to talk about copyright, which is what is divided.

Before going into the co-owned IP, here’s some of the IP Nintendo owns alone: Mario, Zelda, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Splatoon, Metroid, F-Zero, Starfox, Tomodachi Life, Famicom Detective Club, Brain Age, Brain Training, Super Smash Bros, Astral Chain, ARMS, etc so the majority

Between those, you have spin-offs like Mario Tennis and Mario Golf which are co-owned by Camelot, or Paper Mario which is co-owned with Intelligent Systems. But Overall the Mario IP is Nintendo, with sub series having their own situation.

Now going into the shared IP, here they are:

I'm making a post apocalyptic, run-based, safari park tycoon with a simulated ecosystem called Captain Contraption's Safari Park and have just opened up the Steam playtest!

I’m one half of a two-person studio in Wales. We’ve run three closed playtests of Captain Contraption’s Safari Park, and this week it’s open to everyone on Steam.

The idea has been rattling around in my head since I played Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis… What happens if you make a zoo game with no fences and let the animals eat each other?

Every creature in the game has a mind of its own with needs and wants. Predators hunt, carnivores fight over food, and you’re just trying to get visitors close enough to see something interesting without them becoming part of the food chain.

The creatures aren’t entirely animals, though, because the game is post-apocalyptic. You work for a pompous robot called Captain Contraption who is trying to understand humans by building the things they loved. Problem is he’s …

Hello r/pcgaming!

We are happy to share that our demo is finally out 💛

Bottled by Bears is a cozy management idle game about a family of bears running their honey farm, finding diverse bees, bottling honey, and decorating your farm. Total demo playtime should bee (heh) around 30min.

Indie Arcade Gallery Shooter - Nova Swarm

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4765070/Nova_Swarm/

If your game interest includes the old Galaga family of vertical, wave-clearing, screen-based arcade shootemups, you may want to check out the recent indie entry Nova Swarm on Steam. Gallery shooters are a small and little serviced niche, so it’s especially exciting for an old arcade player like me to see a tiny powerhouse like this really claim some space for itself. One of the game’s features is a dedicated developer who seriously soaks up feedback, and has been relentlessly upgrading the game, despite the $5 pricing, since release in early June (not early access, but be warned things can change from day to day). It’s definitely feeling due for some wider attention.

Another key aspect is a rather outlandishly off-kilter arcade-oriented personality, which I’ve found surprisingly charming. That kind of thing doesn’t normally play well for me, so maybe give it a chance before you turn voices off :) …

OpenCritic - 82 average - 88% recommended - 50 reviews

Critic Reviews

A Gaming Network - Marcel Dee - 8 / 10

Halo: Campaign Evolved is a strong modern remake of one of gaming’s most important campaigns. It looks great, feels familiar in the right ways, and brings enough new content and gameplay options to make the return worthwhile.

AltChar - Semir Omerovic - 8 / 10

For newcomers, this is genuinely one of the best entry points the franchise has ever had, and it’s a chance to understand why Halo mattered enough to standardise so many console shooter conventions in the first place. For long-time fans, it’s a faithful, gorgeous retelling with good bonus missions on top of that.

But Why Tho? - Mick Abrahamson - 8.5 / 10

Our studio was started by a Reddit post, and today we are releasing our first original game thanks to another one. Doomsday Diner is out - post-mortem & AMA.

3 comments • reddit.com

https://i.redd.it/ubizi3ry5zeh1.gif

Edit - ITS LIVE!!

Hi, I’m Zsombi from Space Rock Games, a small indie studio in New Zealand, and we would not exist today, if it were not for Reddit.

Doomsday Diner, our first original game, releases today, so it felt like a good moment to look back at how we got here and then answer any questions you may all have.

So, the beginning. Back in 2020, me and my co-founders graduated from university in the middle of the Covid pandemic. As you can imagine, it was a great time to be looking for a job in the middle of a hiring freeze, so not having better alternatives we decided, why not just start our own studio - how hard could it be.

We started working on our own game, but very quickly realized that it would be hard to finish anything if we struggle to even feed ourselves. Therefore we decided that we would help other studios make games and get paid for doing it.

One of my friends who also founded a studio at about the same time told me that …

Game Title: Splatoon Raiders

Platforms:

Trailer:

Review Aggregator:

OpenCritic - 81 average - 74% recommended - 19 reviews

Critic Reviews

Console Creatures - Bobby Pashalidis - 8 / 10

Splatoon Raiders is a genuinely great twist on the Splatoon formula. Going in, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but as I left the tutorial, I knew this was a game that I find far and above more my preference than the mainline games. It might not have the deepest story, but what Splatoon Raiders does have is a sense of adventure, and the island hopping in search of treasure does just enough with its story and characters to keep you entertained through to the credits.

Digitec Magazine - Domagoj Belancic - German - 3 / 5

Splatoon Raiders is a solid looter shooter with brilliant core gameplay. Blasting enemies with ink, swimming through it, and aiming with precise gyro controls feels fantastic. A wide range of weapons, gadgets, perks, and mods …

While The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante told the story of a man born into a world where his fate was already decided, Prince Jerian offers a look at the same world through the eyes of someone who may one day have the power to change its rules.

As the heir to the throne, you will have to find a balance between the interests of the nobility, the Church, and the common people, knowing that every decision comes with a price. Just like before, the heart of the story lies in moral choices, their consequences, and the question of whether it is possible to change the system without losing yourself in the process.

Space Savory - Official Release Date Trailer

3 comments • youtu.be

Space Savory is a hand-drawn, darkly comedic cooking game set in a suspicious roadside diner in the middle of cosmic nothingness.

After crash-landing on an unknown planet, a stranded astronaut must earn enough money to buy fuel and find a way back home. Unfortunately for the customers, they also happen to be the source of the ingredients you need.

Abduct strange aliens, collect what’s inside them, and prepare bizarre meals, desserts, and drinks through a variety of cooking mini-games. Serve your creations back to hungry customers, meet unusual characters, manage your inventory, gamble with shady space-flies, report wanted criminals, survive pirate attacks, and more.

Space Savory launches on Steam on October 26, 2026.

At launch, we’re planning to include an Endless Mode and a Rogue-like Mode alongside the main Story Mode.

Hey, this is Kev, game director of Box Dragon. Since launch last May, We’re 9 major updates into our Early Access, and we’ve got another major update coming this week with Update 10 which features some big strategy loop changes. We also recently got Steam Deck verified!

We currently have our deepest discount yet (-33% off, $13.39), so now’s a great time to pick it up if you haven’t already: As We Descend on Steam

Why join during Early Access? Not only do we regularly update with monthly patches, the game is already content rich with tons of replayability. We’re sitting at 1259 reviews with 87% Very Positive review score.

Right now, we’re focused on adding some bigger features into the game:
- The third player Origin, the “Sacrosanct”
- Better controller support so everything can be played with just the controller

Jenny the Witch - Catbird Soft - Sci-fi hack & slash where you fight a horde of robots in the sewers below New York City. Launching this Wednesday!

6 comments • reddit.com
Hi! I’m Ben from Catbird Soft, and this is Jenny the Witch. Like I said in the title, we’re launching this Wednesday, July 22.

The game

Jenny the Witch is a hybrid third-person shooter / hack & slash with spectacle fighter elements. That’s a lot of genre words to say:
- You shoot things! You’ve got a palm blaster and a set of homing missiles.
- You smack things! Jenny’s rocket-powered broom is designed for smashing robots to bits.
- You have super moves! and airdashes! and lots of other cool tricks!
Put all together, it plays a bit like a hybrid of Gungrave and DMC. You’ll move fast and try to keep enemies under control with a mix of ranged damage and devastating melee combos.

The mission

Four maintenance workers have gone missing in the Brooklyn Understructure, a sprawling network of sewers, waste management facilities, and power infrastructure deep below New York City. Mech-suited mercenary Genevieve Marconi (aka Jenny the Witch) has been …

Trailer

You’re a spoilt princess whose kingdom has been overrun by the creatures of British and Irish folklore, all of them ravenous. No army, no prince, just a talking cat with a recipe book. You don’t fight the Horrors, you cook for them. Draw your cards, work out what each one is craving, and serve the right dish before it reaches you. Get the flavour wrong and you’re the meal.

Every Horror is a real creature from British and Irish legends and myths, from the Banshee to Black Annis to Jenny Greenteeth, and every dish is a genuine dish from British and Irish cooking.
- Satisfy each monster’s craving instead of killing it
- Build a deck around five flavours, craving chains and cookware synergies
- Meet legendary characters pulled straight from folklore
- Hand-pixelled pixel art with an original soundtrack

Hi Indie Sunday. We’re VoltekPlay, a two-person studio (my wife and I). Ministry of Order is our narrative puzzle game, and the short version is: Papers, Please, but the documents are newborns.

What you actually do: babies arrive at a state maternity ministry, and you match each one to the right parents by reading inherited traits - blood type, eye colour and so on - against the paperwork. Get it right and you’re paid; get it wrong and you’re fined, and a wrong match can quietly erase a family. The regime keeps changing the rules about who “deserves” a child, so the puzzle and your conscience slowly drift apart the longer you keep the job.

It’s story-rich and noir: letters, radio broadcasts, a nosy neighbour, late-night knocks at the door. Your choices shape the regime around you.

Where it’s at: we’re deep in a …

Most historical strategy games place you above the map. You control a country, start wars and redraw borders.

Salt and Soil approaches history from the opposite direction. You guide one ordinary family living through nearly three centuries of North American colonization, from 1609 to 1900.

Major historical events happen without your permission. Wars begin, borders move, settlements and trade routes appear, and relationships between different communities change. You cannot rewrite those events. You have to deal with whatever eventually reaches your home.

Each turn represents one year. You manage food, materials, money, livestock and scarce family labor; build and improve the homestead; trade with nearby communities; and decide which risks the household can afford.

3 comments • reddit.com

Hi I’m one of the co-developers of The Duke is Dead, an upcoming indie detective game coming to Steam in November.

Inspired by games like Return of the Obra Dinn and Case of the Golden Idol, you play as a detective unraveling the conspiracy behind the duke’s murder. You’ll collect clues, connect the dots, and puzzle your way to the solution. Put your deduction skills to the test in a series of 10 interconnected crimes.

The Duke is Dead now has a demo on steam (PC and Linux builds available) - https://store.steampowered.com/app/4592030/The_Duke_is_Dead_Demo?utm_source=reddit

Doom 3 - still one of the most atmospheric shooters ever.

I love the attention to detail of this game. The way you slowly get the story fed to you through the environment, emails etc. The whole game just feels so oppressive. The claustrophobia, the lighting, the jump scares, the music. Its incredibly intense. The fact it was made at a time where memory was limited means they squeezed the absolute maximum out of both the graphics and the maps.

has anyone else found themselves where i am now?

so a couple years ago when i was a kid i used to spend 10-12h a day on competitive games/ multiplayer games, counting back i have well over 4k hours on ark survival evolved (which was worth it imo considering the memories i created), 500ish on rust, thousands of hours in fortnite, a thousand or so in apex legends, then another 1k in COD and siege, and then a final 2k ish in CS2. which counting it all up at a rough estimate is 10k+ (counting other games too)

ive spent years getting good at something that doesnt matter, years of just trying to feel the dopamine of killing another play/raiding someone elses base or coming out on top of a conflict in a videogame.

and now since july of last year ive literally not played a competitive/multiplayer game alone, since then ive only ever played once or twice a week with friends. its so much better, its probably the best decision ive ever made in my life, the feeling of being able to just play a …

The Sims is money hungry

29 comments • reddit.com

I recently got a Windows PC, and have previously been playing Sims 4 on my old Xbox One. It is very slow, and I was excited to finally have a pleasant experience playing. Unfortunately, I found out the hundreds of dollars I’ve spent on packs means absolutely nothing, and I cannot use my packs on pc since the original purchase was for Xbox, and vice versa.

Is anyone else incredibly upset with this? It’s just such an unnecessary spit in the face to simmers, especially when most other games have a cross-platform feature. Is there anything I can do? I really don’t want to pirate, but with this kind of behavior it’s ridiculously expensive not to. Am I overreacting?
For those of you who were hyped for No Man’s Sky, to audibly disgusted after its release. What do you think of the game now?

49 comments • reddit.com

As someone who recently started the game and loving it. I’m just curious of how it’s perceived now and if there are some who won’t play it because of the disappointment?

Also was wondering if what was promised was actually kept or if some things that the developers made still haven’t made it to the game?

Crimson desert still not allow players to reconfigure the movement keys 4 months after release

61 comments • reddit.com

Pearl Abyss Black desert online game as WASD rebind since more than 10years.

Yes there is “work around” but when even a 9$ game has WASD rebind, it should be a basic option in a AAA like Crimson Desert.

Thrid party software can create input lag, changing keys via keyboard software requier to constantaly swich profil which is a real hassle.
And you lose proper in game key prompt.

Pathogenic - Cellular Roguelike Shooter - Out Now

26 comments • reddit.com

Hi everyone!

We’ve just launched our game Pathogenic on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3808690/Pathogenic/

The demo for the game was played by over 150,000 players and had an Overwhelmingly Positive rating and we’re pleased to announced the full game has now been released.

Here’s the launch trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jg2fsVUYBeg

What is Pathogenic?

In Pathogenic you are a disease. Infect the human body as a lone pathogen in this cellular roguelike shooter. Collect organelles to evolve your parasite in a microscopic arms race against your host’s immune system. Conquer a beautiful, procedurally generated world of tiny proportions.

Will I Like Pathogenic?

Think the cell stage of Spore mixed with the crazy synergies of something like Noita. Binding of Isaac and Enter The Gungeon are also quite similar in style so if yo like those, or games like it, you should like Pathogenic.

SECTOR ZERO - Ondrej Angelovic - Half-Life & Portal inspired physics-based action-adventure

2 comments • reddit.com
Steam Store Page | Gameplay Trailer | Story Trailer

Hi everyone!
I’ve shared my game here multiple times during the development process, so I wanted to share it here one more time now that it is finally out on Steam.

About SECTOR ZERO:
SECTOR ZERO is a first-person, physics-based dark sci-fi adventure. The game takes place inside a massive asteroid being mined for its resources by human colonists. You play as a tiny fragment of an alien hive-mind entity buried deep within asteroid’s core. Human mining operations woke you up from you nap and now you’re angry.

The core mechanic of the game is your ability to corrupt and control human-made machinery. This power helps you navigate the world, solve physics-based puzzles, and overcome platforming challenges.

- Full controller support

- 100% money-back guarantee, since the main story can be finished in under two hours \^\^

The Zorbonians are a perpetually struggling backwater of a vast galactic empire, and after several thousand years of patience they finally won the Imperial Lottery. The reward: the right to abduct one exquisite individual from anywhere in the known galaxy to fix their economy. The selection committee reviewed your file with great care. They were particularly impressed by your demonstrated capacity to coordinate the movement of standardized containers across continental distances.

So now you run Trade Terminal 7-G. The populace requires goods. You will provide them.

I.T.C.B. - Interstellar Trade Compliance Bureau is a tongue-in-cheek galactic management sim. It plays out on a single screen: build production, manage supply against demand, sell surplus on a galactic market that lurches around on events happening across the empire, and keep an entire alien populace fed, clothed and content; all while resources arrive as untranslated alien glyphs you have to decipher before you can do …
Vampire Mistress - Velvet Labyrinth - 18+ gothic vampire dating sim with visual novel romance and 3D castle exploration

15 comments • reddit.com
Trailer | Steam

Hi r/Games! I’m working on Vampire Mistress, an 18+ gothic vampire dating sim, that mixes character-driven visual novel romance with point-and-click 3D exploration.

The story begins when Morgana, the Vampire Queen, falls into a deep sleep. Her daughter Celestine sees the empty throne as her chance to finally enjoy power for herself, and her rule quickly starts causing trouble for everyone beneath her.

To bring Morgana back before the castle falls apart, you are tasked to recharge magical items tied to the women living under Celestine’s rule, all while exploring the castle, the village and the forest nearby - while spicy moments occur. Each girl you met has her own place in the castle’s growing mess, her own secrets, and her own reason to help, resist, or complicate your attempt to wake the Queen.

The main cast has six romance routes:
- Morgana, the passionate Vampire Queen
- Celestine, the bratty Vampire Princess
- Marien, the earnest Guard Captain
- Lyrielle, the kind …

Sent my GPU (RTX 4090) for repair within warranty, the retailer claimed Gigabyte destroyed it and wanted to refund me the original price which was not enough to buy a new 4090. Almost had to sue them.

137 comments • reddit.com

TLDR: GPU had eisen in price, sent for RMA within warranty with easily repairable problem but was destroyed by manufacturer instead, according to the retailer. I was preparing to sue the retailer to get broken GPU back to have it fixed by third party repair shop. Manufacturer eventually gave me a replacement GPU after media attention. Make sure you specify you want your repairable product back if you send something for RMA that has risen in price!

I bought an Gigabyte RTX 4090 from a major Dutch retailer that came with 3 year warranty. 2 years later the power connector melted. (the new 12vhpwr connector).

I used a Cablemod angled power connector, one that was officially recalled, which I missed. So I was prepared for a denied warranty claim. I contacted Cablemod first and they said they would refund a repair at a third party repair shop if retailer and gigabyte denied my RMA request. That was nice of them.

I did not consider that sending a GPU for RMA might mean Gigabyte would …

A handy way of getting about, once you’ve explored further on the island 😄

This is my upcoming game on Steam. It’s an exploration puzzle game about helping an inventor start an untested ( and very unusual ) reactor. Be aware, there is no Lore or books to read, but the Inventor does talk to you via intercoms scattered around the island. He tells why things are the way they are, and offers encouragement and background as the game goes on.

Scary Cave Diving Releases July 14th — Trapped in a Dark Underwater Cave With Something Hunting You

3 comments • youtu.be
Hey r/pcgaming,

Scary Cave Diving is a first-person survival horror game where you’re trapped in a procedurally generated underwater cave system, running out of oxygen, with a shark stalking you through the dark. It releases July 14th on Steam!

What it’s about:

You wake up deep in a flooded cave system with one goal: find the exit before your air runs out. Every dive generates a new layout, so there’s no memorizing your way through — you’re navigating blind every time.

Features:
- 🔦 Glow Stick Navigation — Mark your path and light the way through the dark, but be careful what the light reveals
- 🦈 A Predator That Hunts You — A shark that can hear and smell you patrols the caves; avoid it or fight back
- 💀 Permadeath — Get caught or run out of oxygen, and you’re starting the dive from scratch in a fresh layout
- 🔫 Limited Defense — Scavenge for a rare flare gun, your only real line of defense against the shark
- 🥊 Shark Cage Mode — A separate arcade mode where …

But Why Tho? - Matt Sowinski - 8.5 / 10

Gamers in China successfully sued for the right to inherit their deceased relatives’ game accounts

104 comments • reddit.com

With all the recent talk of digital ownership rights eroding, I thought it might be useful to share some good news on the digital rights front from China that western gaming audiences are almost certainly unaware of.

With the help of my wife, who is a Chinese lawyer and a certified Chinese-Engilsh translator, I’ve collected multiple rulings from Chinese courts where gamers sued gaming companies for their right to bequeath and inherit gaming accounts and won. While digital rights in China are still in a legal gray area, in practice Chinese courts have already sided with gamers multiple times when it comes to digital asset inheritance.

TLDR: Chinese courts view game accounts and microtransaction purchases as something of monetary value, and therefore gamers have rights related to those assets. Chinese courts reject the idea that standard non-transferability clauses can stop you from inheriting or bequeathing a game or even individual microtransactions (of the same nature as csgo …

Pillars of Eternity - VaultVox Text-to-Speech Accessibility Mod Updated to version 1.3

28 comments • i.redd.it
Hi Folks.

I’ve been working on a Text-to-Speech Accessibility mod/framework for Pillars of Eternity and just released version 1.3.

Video Demo of Mod: https://youtu.be/Jn_OwYzoSZ4

Nexus link: https://www.nexusmods.com/pillarsofeternity/mods/425

It reads most of the game’s unvoiced text aloud in real time (dialogue, journal, tooltips, UI, etc.), basically making it feel much closer to a fully voiced RPG.

Why I made it

The main reason is accessibility.

My wife has dyslexia, so this started as a way to make text-heavy RPGs easier to follow without having to fight through every line manually.

The mod/framework uses a Windows SAPI speech bridge to give a plug-and-play solution.

New Features in v1.3 include:
- Added varied NPC voices: each NPC gets its own voice from a pool, in barks and dialogue. The same NPC stays consistent across save/reload, and NPCs near each other won’t share a voice. Uses your better neural voices and skips the old robotic and child ones.
- Added …

Omelet You Cook - SchuBox Games - Chaotic cooking roguelike "Balatro meets Cooking Mama"

20 comments • reddit.com

Hello chefs,

My name’s Dan Schumacher and I’m one of 2 developers making Omelet You Cook, a roguelike cooking game where you assemble omelets for a demanding giant chicken principal.

The game is all about creating synergies with ridiculous ingredients and arranging them so number go up. A lot of our reviews mention that it gives them that addictive Balatro feeling. We were also inspired by Luck be a Landlord, Ballionaire and cooking games like Papa’s Pizzeria.

We launched earlier this year and we’ve had a few major updates with more to come later this year. Plus we’re 30% off throughout the summer sale!

I’m happy to answer any questions on anything related to the game or our journey. We’ve had a lot of fun making it :)

Happy cooking, chefs!
What's the Password? - TrampolineTales - A minimalistic puzzle game where you decode 4-digit passwords (Out now!)

4 comments • reddit.com

Hi /r/Games!

Who are you?

I’m Dan, you might know my previous titles: Luck be a Landlord and Maze Mice. I released a game called What’s the Password? about a month ago.

What is it?

What’s the Password? is a puzzle game where you have to determine 4-digit passwords from simple visual prompts.

You’ve probably played a game where you had to figure out the 4-digit code to open a locked door. What’s the Password? is an entire game of just those puzzles!

There are 109 puzzles in the game and they can be completed in about 2 hours.

Where’s the trailer?

Here’s the release trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lMwu1ZSmqA

Where’s the Steam page?

The Steam page is right here.

You can also get the game on iOS here and on Android here.

Thanks for reading. If you’ve got any questions about What’s the Password?, feel free to AMA!
Seer's Gambit - Unleash the Giraffe - Draft a party that shouldn't work and build crazy hero synergies.

1 comments • reddit.com

In Seer’s Gambit you recruit heroes like Claudia who sends her pet cloud to harass enemies or Burnard who randomly combusts and gets reborn to kill again.

There’s a huge map full of upgrades and additional heroes to unlock and an Endless mode where you can test just how far you can go with a party centered around your favourite hero.

The game is 35% off right now and all through the Steam Summer Sale.

We’ve built the game around really weird combos and with the design philosophy that you should be able to explore and exploit synergies and it is so much fun when people find a new crazy build. If you pick up the game. We’d love to hear what your favourite party setup is.

Marble's Marbles - Destined - A love letter to the classic marble games like Marble Madness, Ballance and HamsterBall

13 comments • reddit.com

Hi, I am James the solo dev from Australia of this game. Recently I did crossover with 5 different indie games where I made levels inspired by other indie games in the Marble’s Marbles style.

You can see the trailer here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j7JxsSx9Rw

The game itself is a nostalgic love letter to the classic marble games of the past, reimagined with modern visuals and satisfying physics. If you have ever wondered why there are no good modern versions this one might for you.

It is currently on sale on steam here https://store.steampowered.com/app/4137920/Marbles_Marbles/

Call me crazy, but wasnt there supposed to be a new Valve game released along side the steam machine, that people hoped would be Half Life 3? Was there ANY title drop at ALL? I asked google and theres literal absolute silence to the point that im thinking me crazy and traveled to another dimension where it never was supposed to happen.

Is Sony pulling away from PC actually short-sighted? Or is it the right move?

83 comments • reddit.com

I’m an exclusive PC gamer. Will never own another console in my life, Nintendo Switch 1 was my last and I purchased that at launch. PC has too many advantages over console for me to justify the cost for a few games nowadays.

But are Sony making the right move in ditching PC? Isn’t there an argument to be had that when ‘why own a PlayStation when the games are on PC?’ becomes a common sentiment, it is indeed hurting the brand?
Streaming will be the future. Agree or disagree?

95 comments • reddit.com

With Sony’s move to end production of physical media starting 2028 and the state of the industry, I think we’re inevitably moving towards a future where the next step is renting computational power via subscription, in my opinion.

Taking away the storage medium is just the first step and sooner or later the hardware itself will follow.

Prices are still rising, or at least not going down and will leave behind anyone that can’t afford hardware.

What’s your opinion and how would you feel about this possible future?

If you disagree, which direction do you see the industry taking?
Should games cost 150 dollars for jobs in the gaming industry to be stable, pay decently?

I was reading a conversations about the current situation in the game industry ad someone said that the problem comes from customers being unwilling to pay more for video games and that for people working int he industry tsituation would be better if video games cost 150 dollars. Do you think that this is accurate? Would such a rise in prices truly benefits developers and average workers in the industry?

What are we doing about GTA VI console release?

147 comments • reddit.com

Its looking like itll probably be 1 year+ before we see GTA VI on PC, probably more with them wanting to milk online, so what are peoples ideas who want to play it before then without shilling for a next gen console that’ll only get used for that one game until it releases on PC and we buy it again anyways.

I have heard emulators are a possibility, how soon do people think those will be up and running in a playable state? if at all? im not that clued in on the topic.

This post is for ppl genuinely interested in playing GTA VI soonish after initial release, I’ve seen a lot of “Oh i just wont, id rather play my farting sim roguelite cos im a PC player and hate AAA😏” which is great for them but not helpful.

So, any hope for us or are we doomed to wait an eternity longer for the most hyped game of this century. I can see myself becoming one of the above mentioned copers if so lol.

**EDIT** this is why people hate PC gamers DAYUM yall toxic lmfao

11 comments • reddit.com
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMZi4yg632E

Hey everyone!

After more than 3 years of development, Maseylia: Echoes of the Past is finally available on Steam!

(The game actually released about two weeks ago, but I had to wait before posting here because my launch announcement was less than a month ago, and the subreddit rules require waiting one month between promotional posts.)

Maseylia is a true 3D Metroidvania inspired by Metroid Prime, Pseudoregalia, Hollow Knight, and the worlds of Moebius, focused on fluid movement, exploration, sequence breaking, and interconnected world design.

The game features:
- Non-linear 3D exploration
- Advanced movement abilities (360° Air Dash, Grapple, Double Jump, and more)
- Movement-based progression
- 6 unique biomes to explore
- Atmospheric sci-fi environments
- Steam Deck & Linux compatibility
- 10–15 hours for the main adventure, with plenty more for completionists
The game is available now for $17.00, with the 20% launch discount ending tomorrow …

Game Title: Rhythm Heaven Groove

Platforms:
- Nintendo Switch (Jul 2, 2026)
Trailer:

Review Aggregator:

OpenCritic - 84 average - 88% recommended - 16 reviews

Critic Reviews

CGMagazine - Jordan Biordi - 10 / 10

Rhythm Heaven Groove is not only incredibly fun, backed by an amazing soundtrack, but it’s so unbelievably accessible practically everyone can play it.

COGconnected - Jaz Sagoo - 80 / 100

Quote not yet available

Cerealkillerz - German - 7.5 / 10

Rhythm Paradise Groove is not an easy game to evaluate, as it is a collection of rhythm-based minigames with extremely simplistic gameplay. Nevertheless, we could not completely resist the series’ unique charm and found ourselves coming back for “just one more round” time and again.

Depending on the type of player, however, your enjoyment may vary considerably. Perfectionists who want to master every minigame and leave their mark on each one will get much more out of Rhythm Paradise …

Interesting to see 1080p is still the preferred gaming resolution, at least on Steam

61 comments • i.redd.it

I’ve had people try to mock me before about still using 1080p 60fps, saying that 4k is the new standard. I regularly stream and record gameplay, and I’d much rather have a stable 60fps whilst playing indie games and early access titles than worry about frame drops and poor performance.

When I looked at the stats a couple of years ago, I noticed that most players on Steam (who have chosen to share their data) are still running 1080p as their primary display, and it’s barely changed in the last 2 years.

I’d be interested to know what the community prefers, and why?

IO Interactive starting layoffs after Project Fantasy is affected by ending relationship with an external partner

100 comments • reddit.com

https://x.com/IOInteractive/status/2072005107797893315

Dear gaming community,

For a good while, it has been all positive news from IO Interactive. We remain humbled and honored by the response to our latest outing with a young, unproven Bond. A bold new story and a take on one of the most famous characters in entertainment, which the world has embraced with love.

However, today we have to share some more downbeat news. A relationship with an external partner on our own IP, Project Fantasy, has come to an end. This means we have to adapt to this new reality and its short-term consequences, including staffing decisions, which is what is happening as we write this update, and we are fully committed to supporting those affected through this challenging transition.

Project Fantasy is a game, a world, and an IP that we absolutely love and remain 100% committed to, now and in the future. This wonderful universe will see the light of day.

Replaying the same games as we get older

Is anyone else more excited about replaying their old favourites than new releases as they get older? Going into my late 30s with limited gaming time, I find myself more drawn to replaying classics like Neverwinter Nights, Mass Effect, and Guild Wars 1 than I am the big-name new releases like Expedition 33. I’m sure it’s a fantastic game, but I just don’t have the motivation to emotionally invest in a whole new world when I’m already burnt out by real-life responsibilities.

Hello r/pcgaming,

I’m Olivier from 2Frogs Software, the small indie team making Hell on Earth.

We just launched our Kickstarter, but more importantly, the Alpha version of the game is available for everyone to play on Steam for the duration of the campaign. The Alpha focuses on one full level of the game and lets players try the core combat, progression, inventory, and story introduction.

Hell on Earth is a dark fantasy action roguelite built around short, intense 15-minute runs. You fight through large enemy hordes and bosses with unique mechanics while building persistent progression through loots, gold, weapons, armor, and gems that can be upgraded between runs.

The current Alpha includes:
- One full playable level
- The Paladin class
- Boss encounters
- Large enemy hordes
- Persistent gear progression
- Weapons, armor, gems, chests, inventory, and store systems
- Solo play for the current Alpha. (Multiplayer exists, but it is not fully supported yet)
Our longer-term goal is to expand the …

My experimental clicker game Flufftopia: Fluffmazing Edition got a big 1.1 update today!

3 comments • reddit.com

Hey,

Flufftopia: Fluffmazing Edition is a cozy little clicker game with a story. That is what you see at first glance. But it is more. It’s an experimental game where you can explore a lot if you are into that.

At first, you are tasked with transforming your little Flufftown into Flufftopia. Improve your buildings, hire workers, all for your big goal … but wait, there is something strange.

Today, Flufftopia: Fluffmazing Edition got the big 1.1 Flufftastic Update. It improves the game in many ways and is a substantial update. Without spoiling too much, there is even a new music track. How often does it happen that an update features new music?

The game is best experienced spoiler-free but there are many videos made about the game you can watch online.

Key Features

- Cute world

- Multiple endings

- Relaxing soundtrack

Right now, Flufftopia: Fluffmazing Edition is 30% off on Steam. You can get it for less than 4$! …
Please support Ukrainian language localization in Total War: Medieval III — here's the case for it

10 comments • reddit.com

Hey r/pcgaming,

With Total War: Medieval III in early development, I wanted to raise the topic of Ukrainian localization — and I think the numbers make a strong case.

According to Steam’s hardware survey, Ukrainian is the 14th most used language on the platform at 0.73% of all users — ahead of Italian and Czech. Ukraine ranks 17th globally by Steam gaming audience, above South Korea and Italy. With ~132 million monthly active users on Steam, that’s roughly 1 million potential players.

Ukraine has a population of approximately 39 million people with a large and active gaming community. Major titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur’s Gate 3 have already added Ukrainian localization and received very positive feedback for it.

Worth noting — Total War: Pharaoh was the first entry in the franchise to drop Russian localization entirely, which shows Creative Assembly is already making conscious decisions about which languages to support. Ukrainian would be a natural and …
Unpopular Opinion: Valorant is a Fundamentally Flawed Game

38 comments • reddit.com

I’ve recently tried getting into Valorant after playing other class based, tactical, and arcade shooters my entire life. I’ve played them all at differing skill levels but the common denominator between them is that the gameplay and shooting had always felt consistent and rewarding independent of the properties of those specific games. Valorant’s gameplay on the other hand just feels so unrewarding and contradictory.

When I shoot a rifle in Cod or Fortnite I understand the game’s shooting mechanics are more arcadey and the higher variability in the guns bloom makes sense. When I shoot a usp or cavieras pistol in cs or siege respectively the guns feel consistent and when I lose an aim duel I usually can easily pinpoint why. Valorant’s gunplay on the other hand feels extremely contradictory and limiting as the high amount of variability of the gun’s accuracy doesn’t make for fair and consistent gameplay given the low time to kill and marketing …

If this happens to you as well then how do you deal with it? Right now, I spent 1 hour researching best options to cut in ep 3 of Dispatch…went through all the spoilers and everything on a bunch of sites just to get a “it doesnt matter” in the end…Now, i’m so tired of it that I dont even want to play it anymore. Happens with all the story games…I start…google the outcome…and then i play through it…a bunch of times…get tired of doing the same thing again and again…drop the game…start an anime or a show.

I barely play anymore during the week cause of work and when i get time during the weekends, i dont wanna play games anymore.

I dont even remember the last story game that i ever fully finished.

This is a very special moment for us. This project started modestly, in our free time, between two workdays, with the simple desire to tell a story that was close to our hearts. Little by little, scene after scene, background after background, dialogue after dialogue, the game took shape.

For a long time, me and my friend worked on it in the evenings, on weekends, whenever we could find a little time and energy to dedicate to it. Then, over the last few months, we decided to devote ourselves to it full-time in order to give it all the attention, care, and quality it deserved.

This is our first game, and it means a great deal to us: years of learning, doubts, difficult choices, but also many beautiful moments of creation. We wanted to offer a sincere, handcrafted adventure, entirely hand-drawn, with a strong atmosphere and a story that we hope will leave a lasting impression.

We also want to thank everyone who supported us throughout development. Your support truly mattered. ❤️

After a lot of early hype, has VR gaming died? Or has it just gone quiet?

515 comments • reddit.com

Title pretty much sums it up - I feel like 6-8 years ago everyone (including myself) was hyped about VR headset gaming. I played Super Hot and Tilt Brush and was blown away by both. But over the past 5 years I stopped hearing about VR entirely. Literally one person out of many of my gaming friends owns a VR headset (the PS one) and he hasn’t used it in years. I never see posts about VR games in the big gaming subreddits.

Did VR gaming rise and fall already? I thought VR was super fun and always wanted to buy a headset, but if there still isn’t much a library of great games/experiences being developed on an ongoing basis, it seems pointless.

Cerealkillerz - Steve Brieller - German - 8.4 / 10

Visually and acoustically, Star Fox impressed us across the board. The overall atmosphere is more intense, more immersive, and still retains that essential sense of nostalgia for longtime veterans. All the more disappointing, then, is the lack of additional missions to expand the relatively short single-player campaign. While the Challenge Mode is a nice extra for achievement hunters, full-fledged missions or even a second campaign would have added significant value to the remake. The multiplayer mode also suffers from a limited number of maps and mission types, even though the core gameplay is enjoyable. We hope that Star Fox marks …

Couchpit: use any controller as an Xbox pad in your games and run your whole PC from the couch

37 comments • reddit.com

Hi r/pcgaming. I’m a solo dev, and this is my release post for Couchpit.

A bit on why I made it: I’ve been gaming on my PC from the living room couch for years, and as much as I love it, it always came with friction. Controllers that won’t work in half my games, having to reach for a mouse to do anything on the desktop, tweaking settings before every session. I’m a developer, but a PC gamer long before that, so at some point I just built the tool I kept wishing I had, shaped by my own setup and the exact things that tripped me up. That’s Couchpit, and with all the living-room and Steam Machine momentum lately it felt like the right time to share it.

Here’s what it does:

1. Any controller, seen as a standard Xbox pad. It makes non-Xbox controllers (DualSense, DualShock, Switch Pro, 8BitDo, Steam Controller and Steam Controller 2, and more) show up as a standard Xbox pad, so they work in any game that supports Xbox/XInput controllers (Game Pass, …

Driving Rogue - Arcade driving meets roguelike runs!

28 comments • youtu.be

We’re making Driving Rogue, a roguelike arcade driving game built around score chasing, near-misses, upgrades, and surviving as long as you can before one crash ends the run.
Here is the gameplay trailer!

The pitch is: what if an arcade driving game had the structure of a roguelike? Instead of traditional races, each run is about pushing your luck through traffic, drifting through tight gaps, chaining near-misses, collecting cards/upgrades, and trying to build a better run than your last one.

We’ve been thinking a lot about how to make driving games replayable outside of normal racing formats. For Driving Rogue, that means:

Procedural runs instead of fixed tracks
Different cars with different strengths
Upgrade/card choices during the run
Risk/reward scoring from near-misses, drifting, and slipstreaming
Leaderboard-style score chasing
A run-ending crash system

The demo is live on Steam, and we’d really appreciate feedback from PC players. We’re especially interested in whether the …

Hello all! I’m Thomas Mackinnon - I made games called THE CORRIDOR and It Takes a War!

Translation via Google Translate:

A light aircraft crashed Friday afternoon, June 19, in a field in the town of La Baule, killing two people, Loire-Atlantique firefighters announced.

Upon arrival at the scene, “the aircraft was on fire and the flames were spreading to the surrounding vegetation.”

Contacted by Ici Loire Océan, the mayor of La Baule, Franck Louvrier, indicated that it was “a Cessna 421, a twin-engine propeller plane with eight seats, which had departed from Rennes.”

According to information from Ouest-France, which we can confirm, Claude Guillemot, co-founder with his four brothers of Ubisoft and owner of the aircraft, was one of the two victims.

The Breton leader was expected this weekend in La Baule for a gathering of over a hundred aircraft. The other …

Link to the invitation describing the event.

The invitation seems to still indicate a 2026 launch, although it does not have a specific date and it would be quite close to a GTA VI release.

Nonetheless, as someone who has never played Star Citizen but has followed it because following a potentially doomed project is interesting, it seems like the single player portion of their commitment may actually happen in the near future.

An event like this is not something they’ve done before.

Obsidian Entertainment Facing Class-Action Lawsuit over California Labor Violations

You can check it out on the OC superior court website but there’s a court paywall, case info here, images here:

EDIT: you can read the pdf of the filing and Obsidian (and Fisher Phillips) legal response here.

The Steam Next Fest is back again for the second time this year, with some big games from the last few weeks of announcements and many others besides. Let’s give our favorites the flowers they deserve!

Some of the most notable participants this time around include:

- Screenbound, a mixed-perspective platformer where you’re navigating both in 3D and 2D simultaneously.
- Valor Mortis, a first-person soulslike from the developers of the Ghostrunner series.
- Echoes of Aincrad, a new Sword Art Online JRPG that has you set out as your own created character instead of following the show’s protagonists.
- EMPULSE, Splitgate developer 1047 Games’ take on Titanfall’s multiplayer combat.
A few others that caught my eye have been:
- Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World?!, an oddball driving game from Strange Scaffold where you run over people to have them …

Strange Seed - Chronicle Games - Evolve in a Spore-like RPG world; Daily Deal and Ocean update today!

0 comments • reddit.com
Strange Seed is a bit like Spore’s creature stage, but instead of a simulator, it’s an RPG with a semi-linear adventure, characters, a story, and a lot of challenges to adapt to!

We just finished a huge (but free) Ocean stage expansion where you can swim around and pick up weird DNA sources like jellyfish, sea urchins, squids, sharks and something freaky in the deep abyss.

Also, Steam gave the game a Daily Deal slot today so it’s 30% off right now, the highest discount to date.
- Steam page
- Trailer
Strange Seed comes from a wish that Spore had been more like an older creature evolution game, E.V.O.: Search for Eden.

Evolved parts should actually change gameplay and be used for specific tasks, for instance:
- Become small enough to crawl through a tiny tunnel
- Become big enough to push a heavy boulder
- Balance your wings with stamina bonuses to get through a platforming segment
- Load up on shells and spikes to become a defensive creature, or claws and teeth for a …

Duo Heli Combat - SyrBor Games - Helicopter action with local co-op, strategy elements & a demo on Steam

3 comments • reddit.com
Hey r/Games, I’m a solo dev making Duo Heli Combat. The demo is one mission: intercept an enemy bomber. Play solo or in local co-op on the same screen - pick your weapons, call in reinforcements, and decide how to approach the fight.

What’s in the demo:
- Intercept mission with tactical freedom (choose objectives, call allied units)
- Build your own weapon loadout - unlock machine guns, rockets and mix them to your style
What’s coming later (the heart of the game):
- A unique co-op mode where two helicopters are tethered by a fuel hose - forced synchronisation, shared fuel, walker boss fights - missions impossible alone
- Full campaign (prisoner rescues, convoys, base captures) and 1v1 PvP
I kept the demo focused so players could nail the basics first. I’d love feedback on how the helicopter feels, if the loadout choices work, and how local co-op plays for you.

Cheat Death - GG Studio - Roguelite + dice poker + horror: Every roll can save you or end your run (Slay the Spire meets Inscryption)[DEMO]

4 comments • reddit.com
Cheat Death is a dark strategic roguelite where your only opponent is the Grim Reaper himself! You play dice poker against Death: every hand is a risk, every roll can save or end you.

If you like: Slay the Spire’s deckbuilding tension + Inscryption’s creepy cabin dread + dice poker (pairs, straights, full houses) — this one’s for you.

Key features:
- Dice poker as combat – Build hands to deal damage, heal, or stack bonuses.
- Gamble with your soul – push your luck for better rolls, but one bad hand can be fatal.
- Unlock cursed perks – each run changes your strategy.
- Horror atmosphere – Candles, shadows, and Death who knows your odds better than you do.
It’s a roguelite. It’s horror. It’s dice poker with Death himself.

Demo is available now on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4202000/Cheat_Death_Demo/

Watch the Latest Trailer:
https://youtu.be/h7NEyQi_hl4

I’d love to hear your feedback — does the dice poker combat feel fair? Is the risk/reward balanced? Try the demo and …
Exark - Robot Cat Games - Eclectic engine builder on a giant ark (demo available)

0 comments • reddit.com

Hi all, I’m making Exark, a retina-burning engine builder / auto-battler set on a giant flying ark! You build buildings, hire crew, and collect relics to generate resources and morale, while staving off attacks from sky-pirates.

Steam

Itch.io

Exark is essentially an inventory management autobattler at its core, with a few key differences - it’s a purely single-player game, and borrows a lot of elements from 4X games - unlike most autobattlers, a purely peaceful, builder approach is viable.

If that sounds interesting, please give the demo (launched just ahead of Next Fest) a try! Any feedback and suggestions are always appreciated.
Timebound - Michal Kluz - Inspired by Outer Wilds and The Talos Principle, a puzzle adventure with layers of secrets hidden in plain sight

3 comments • reddit.com

Hello r/Games! I love games that give you a genuine feeling of discovery and respect your intelligence, so I’ve been making a game just like that for the past three years. It’s called Timebound and it’s a rule-discovery puzzle adventure with no handholding, you’re just dropped into a world and left on your own to explore. My wife Patrycja makes all the art, and our friend Fabien creates music and sound. We have a demo that’s already packed with content and layers of secrets to explore. While Outer Wilds and The Talos Principle are the biggest inspirations, players often say that playing reminds them of The Witness, Taiji and Tunic.

Features:

- “Aha!” moments - puzzles are designed to seem impossible at first glance. You need to level up your brain to solve them.

- NO upgrades, NO unlocks, NO items - the only progression is your knowledge of the world

- Meta puzzles - “jailbreak” elements of one puzzle to “cheat” …

I've spent 4 years making a dark fantasy metroidvania inspired by the legend of Elizabeth Bathory. The Steam Next Fest demo is finally live.

25 comments • youtube.com

I’m a solo developer and for the last four years I’ve been working on Blade of Mercy: Bloody Countess, a dark fantasy metroidvania inspired by the legend of Elizabeth Bathory.

The game focuses on exploration, interconnected world design, tactical combat, and hand-crafted pixel art. One of its more unusual mechanics is that beer restores health, but excessive intoxication can become a serious problem.

Most of the art, animation, design and programming have been done by me.

The demo is participating in Steam Next Fest and I’d genuinely love to hear what gamers think about the combat, exploration, difficulty and overall feel of the game.

I have built CS Manager. The demo is live on Steam.

11 comments • store.steampowered.com

Hi everyone

CS Manager puts you in charge of an esports organization. You must make decisions on your roster, backroom staff, finances, and tournament schedule to bring your team to the top of the circuit. Players’ skills are only one part of building a squad. Their roles, map pool, languages spoken, and personalities all determine whether you will have success. A well-drilled and cohesive team of lesser skill can easily take down a team of badly organized star players.

You can simulate all your games and focus purely on management if that is most to your liking, but the game also features a real-time match engine where you can watch your players and tactics in action, call timeouts, and make adjustments to improve your winning chances.

The demo is live and can be found on Steam:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4482650/CS_Manager_Demo/

On a personal note, I have drawn a lot of inspiration from other manager games such as Football Manager and Motorsport Manager while …

Invisible Steam games - June 4th to June 12th.

14 comments • reddit.com

Disclaimer : since it wasn’t clear to everyone last time, I’ll try to make it shorter.

I don’t play these games before listing them. I don’t claim to offer any expert opinion either, I just skim through SteamDB to check games that release every day, take the time to read the pitch and the reviews when there are any, watch trailers and do a bit of digging around online. This takes me 6 to 7 hours to do.

My Picks

🇧🇪 Swan Song, €7, demo available, 64 positive reviews out of 64 (100.0%). Relaxing musical puzzle. You compose melodies in a magical music box to activate platforms and guide a swan back to its nest, all wrapped in a poignant story about family and grief.

🇧🇷 Shepherd Knight, €13, demo available, 8 positive reviews out of 8 (100.0%). Open world adventure. You play as a shepherdess who, with her faithful dog, guides and protects her magical flock through ruins and temples, wielding a sword and solving puzzles. The vibe the concept and its aesthetic give …
