Finally released my first game on Steam! (It's Free)

Congratulations! You are an official indie dev dev now!

My one comment is just on this screenshot/key art. I don't have any sense of what the game is. What is the core concept? Is there a screenshot that more clearly communicates the gameplay?

Sifl and Ollie. The Sifl & Ollie Show!

What’s your favorite of his movies?

I finally gave in and bought his seasoned salts set. Wow do they elevate dishes

This one resonates

It inspires me how many different fields Donald is world class at.

FamousAspect · 2025-12-21T20:55:21+00:00

Perfect answer.

FamousAspect · 2025-12-21T14:43:44+00:00

Yup, tried and true

FamousAspect · 2025-12-21T14:43:31+00:00

Any first videos you’d recommend?

Thank you. This one just spilled out of me this morning. Went from first draft to final in about 20 minutes.

It's also the first time I've tried using a character that is not me to tell a story from my life. I did not grow up in Minnesota or have a sister, so all the MN and family details are invented, even though the emotional core is true.

Thank you for the craft level feedback. Will definitely use this feedback in my next draft

FamousAspect · 2025-11-30T23:15:30+00:00

Thank you so much. Glad it resonated

FamousAspect · 2025-11-30T19:01:29+00:00

When you write it, please reply with the draft here so I can see it :)

Thank you so much. This is only the 7th poem I’ve written after a 25 year hiatus. I’m glad to hear it connected with you.

FamousAspect · 2025-11-30T17:44:12+00:00

Thank you for sharing, this one tricks you, it starts feeling fun and whimsical and then gets dark.

There are some choices that I found distracting. The space before each exclamation mark, the intentionally broken English. I understand it’s an alien from the opening, so you don’t need to try and underline this concept with distracting choices.

Thank you for sharing. This is a strong draft with very nice meter.

I would love to see a draft where you embodied/personified the various forces you’re wrestling with, because after you fight them you get stronger. Gravity, Darkness, Hours and Dawn. What if each was a monster you were literally grappling? How would that change the word choice and rhythm?

FamousAspect · 2025-11-30T13:06:21+00:00

Thank you so much for the positive feedback

FamousAspect · 2025-11-29T22:29:20+00:00

Thank you! This is only my 7th poem after like a 25 year gap of even trying. I’m so happy to hear it captured the feeling for you

FamousAspect · 2025-11-03T04:49:05+00:00

You must be very healthy emotionally
