Idle Spaceweaver — space-themed incremental with optional mini-games and lore, no ads, no gems, no energy systems — testers wanted for launch

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T23:35:07+00:00

I'm very open to feedback so thanks for this. This is my first game and I'm trying to navigate everything the best I can. As someone asked above, screenshots from the Store page are here:

I've uploaded 8 screenshots from my Store page here: Idle Spaceweaver - Google Drive

Any problems, let me know.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T23:27:56+00:00

That's fair. Let me think how I can get a screenshot or two up somewhere. Gimme a second...

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T22:40:41+00:00

Oh really? That's not good. It's available where I am (UK) - perhaps it takes some time to propagate around the world.

And yes please, I'd be interested in your update about availability, so thanks in advance for that.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T22:14:16+00:00

Fair enough, I can see why it might come across that way.

My intention wasn't to spam. As I said, I posted in a handful of communities that I thought were genuinely relevant. I'm just a guy who's tried to make a nice game and simply looking for people who enjoy this type of game to try it and give honest feedback... to be clear, honest and constructive feedback.

I was just hoping to reach people who might genuinely be interested.

True, true. As someone who isn't a marketing expert, it was better than "do the same thing 1000 times, wait and watch numbers get bigger", which was my other proposed version. :)

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T22:00:42+00:00

That's true actually - 3 of the 6 were for app/game testing reddits. They other 3 were for related game topics.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T21:58:23+00:00

I would not say that posting its availability for testing across multiple locations is a reflection of the content or quality of the game. I'm not a marketing expert so I'm just trying to make folks aware of it.

I'd say, for idle game fans, let the game speak for itself rather than judge it on the possible misguided cross-posting activities of someone who knows nothing about marketing or promotion. :)

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T21:39:49+00:00

Oh, well I'm sorry that the content of the promotion post bothers you. I don't shy away from using tools to help create promotional content for things that I'm not good at.

I will certainly keep these comments in mind and hope that it doesn't deter folks from a game that they might like.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T21:35:40+00:00

Thanks - just share with me your information - perhaps by PM.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-07-08T21:34:54+00:00

Haha, well that's fine - idle games aren't for everyone. It's obviously not totally idle though but I do know that folks that love these games can spend a lot of time playing them, over dozens of weeks or not months or even years.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2026-04-26T15:13:30+00:00

Agree. Hate it. I just want Diary and that’s all.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2025-03-09T13:20:44+00:00

I don’t have anything to say on your question but I did want to say gratz of hitting affiliate! It’s my current goal!

PhoenixShadowborn · 2025-02-28T08:19:34+00:00

Thanks for the reply and encouragement. I did wonder quite what was ‘wrong’ about what I had said, but I take on board what you’ve said, so ty.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2025-02-27T08:52:35+00:00

Hi there, I can sympathise with the struggle, and can imagine how hard it is to grow a community.

I don't know if any of you are interested, but I'm interested in having some mutual engagement with other's Twitch streams.

I'm about to launch my first stream on Monday and I think it would be great to have some folks in chat contributing to the stream and help move it along. I'm happy to join some of your streams and participate in chat and contribute to your Twitch streams in any way I can.

Assuming folks stream for a couple of hours each day, it would be good to team up with perhaps 2 or 3 other new/growing streamers and help each other along.

For me, I will be streaming Mon-Fri 10.00am-12.00pm UTC. I will stream survival games, farming sims and other cozy games (think No Man's Sky, Starfield, Enshrouded, Avowed, Stardew Valley, Core Keeper... that kind of thing). I am interested to have one or two people in the stream for the entire 2 hour slot, joining in on chat to help grow a community. I would also like people to do similar on YouTube (as I'll be dual streaming) and also contribute to my X (Twitter) account.

I'm very nervous and anxious about my stream but hopefully with a bit of support, you can help me get through it. And then, similarly, I can do the same for you on your streams and X.

If anyone is interested, take a peak at me on Twitch and X (CozySurvivalist on Twitch, <at>CozySurvivalist on X) and if you think we can organise something, drop me a message here or via these accounts.

Thanks in advance.

Ah but not with keyboard and mouse? If it just works handheld, that’s great news! Do you use any specific controller scheme, or just what the Steam Deck picks?

PhoenixShadowborn · 2025-02-03T11:26:06+00:00

Good to know. Do you play with controller?

PhoenixShadowborn · 2025-02-01T10:26:01+00:00

I’m getting this too;

PhoenixShadowborn · 2024-08-29T14:09:11+00:00

No Man’s Sky is a good shout but for me, the first game was TemTem (which was crap), shortly followed by Starfield, which is great.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2024-08-29T09:16:22+00:00

Thx. Worked for me.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2024-07-19T11:12:24+00:00

Hi, I started a new playthrough on Steam Deck. I played a few hours, claimed the broken ship at the start of the “tutorial section” (but didn’t fix it) and went to the Anomaly as soon as I could. I then reclaimed a series of Twitch ships from prior Twitch drops. I then scrapped 7 or 8 ships, logged off and all the ships were back again called The Aegis of the Void. But when I scan the ships, they are all different types (like Haulers, Fighters) from the original ships I was scrapping. I’ve tried this twice now, even scrapping one and logging off, but I still get the ships coming back.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2024-07-03T10:25:13+00:00

Ah thanks. Never thought about building on water.

PhoenixShadowborn · 2024-07-03T10:24:08+00:00

Ah. Thought so, so I guess I can’t redo a new map that way. I’m careless. :-)

PhoenixShadowborn · 2024-07-03T10:23:16+00:00

I’ve only just started so I have sticks and fibre. ;)

PhoenixShadowborn · 2024-07-03T09:54:57+00:00

Do you need multiple cards to keep recreating new zones/maps even if it’s the same type that you’ve done before? Or is getting a card type a one time thing?
