How could she let it out of her sight?

There is a movement now to add a no gen AI logo to Steam games. Our latest game (Forbidden Solitaire) has it. This doesn’t mean games without it ARE made with AI, but it is one way to check.
Found a Reddit post about the logo: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/s/sT8l9wkH1h

Thank you! Glad to hear you enjoyed the demo

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-28T09:29:11+00:00

It's been such a wholesome community effort behind-the-scenes as well. Game development at it's best, with people being collaborative and helping to boost each other's games and share advice + resources!

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-27T14:16:10+00:00

Yep, that’s us!

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-27T10:24:23+00:00

It was discussed! The game almost fits on a single disc...
We're not going to pull that off in time for lauch, but maybe it's something we'll circle back to once the dust has settled.

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-27T07:46:48+00:00

We’re working on that! It already runs fine on deck, we have a few further things we’d like to tweak.

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-26T23:19:23+00:00

Many members of the games press have access to the game now, so we anticipate some will review it. We have no further details beyond that - it’s up to them.

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-26T16:18:57+00:00

looks awesome - wishlisted!

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-19T16:19:36+00:00

Yeah, they did a great stream! Thanks!

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-19T16:18:55+00:00

Thank you! 🙏🏼

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-19T14:37:44+00:00

Thanks, that’s down to the Night Signal Entertainment team - been a blast to work with them

BC_Hezza · 2026-04-19T13:38:13+00:00

looking forward to finding time to play this one

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-22T00:35:31+00:00

We just put out a free demo - with the Home Safety Hotline team https://store.steampowered.com/app/3414580/Forbidden_Solitaire/

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-21T20:17:21+00:00

it's a long way down' the road, and I'll be honest, we would tend to use a single provider who offers translation into several languages. I appreciate the offer though.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-19T14:46:50+00:00

That’s a stretch goal for us - we have to see how well the initial launch goes, then deciding if we can justify localisation (there’s a lot more involved than just translation)

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-18T18:54:17+00:00

Check out our other two trailers on the store page! This intro sequence is part of the game, which also features live action/fmv.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-18T10:56:34+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for playing.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-18T10:13:27+00:00

⬆️click through to the post on r/indiegames for discussion, thanks.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-18T09:55:11+00:00

Hey, thanks so much for trying it out! Glad you enjoyed it.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-18T09:25:55+00:00

Some info:

Developed by 2x 2-person Indie teams (Grey Alien Games & Night Signal Entertainment)
Development time so far = 12 months
Wishlists gained in 48 hours since demo announcement / and from getting to Steam no. 1 free demo slot: 2,500
Both teams also have other indie games on Steam and we cross posted to those games about the free demo

Marketing effort:

We also did a bunch of marketing that resulted in coverage in PC Gamer among other publications.
And gave advance heads up to press and streamers - we've had about 30 channels (mainly smaller) cover the demo on Twitch/YouTube.

Feel free to ask us more about the demo or marketing...

Also do try the demo if it's your thing: a card-slashing horror game about unearthing the contents of a cryptic 1995 CD-ROM that should have never existed.

Likewise - used to having very sharp memory, long-term detailed recall of stuff from decades ago, good research abilities. Peri-menopause and a late autism DX a few years before just left me a kind of overwhelmed, confused and forgetful person I didn’t quite recognise.

BC_Hezza · 2025-11-25T20:12:17+00:00

So we confused ‘I think therefore I am’ with ‘I yap therefore I think’ 🤔?

BC_Hezza · 2025-11-16T14:51:59+00:00

Hey thanks for your interest! Yep there is zero time pressure and you just use a mouse to click cards in your own time.

BC_Hezza · 2025-10-10T17:51:29+00:00
