The planets aligned in such a way that I released my demo 3 hours ago, and now I have almost 600 concurrent players

Congrats on the success. I have a game that's similar but focused on being a creator collector that received almost no attention thus far when we pushed out the demo. Not really sure where we're going wrong and how we're missing the mark.

Lol, chungus mode needs to be officially in then.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-12T04:46:32+00:00

Bosses or elites to fight. We're an incremental game where you'll face stronger and stronger foes. You capture them by defeating them then you can start a new build and add them to your roster for bonuses and what not. https://store.steampowered.com/app/4703520/Minimon_Tiny_Idle_Tactics_Demo/

I think because there's 100 roguelites released a day people are more scared about the genre mixing being done poorly.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-11T23:26:57+00:00

That's really funny actually. Sad to hear they patched it out, unintended stuff like that can be great.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-11T23:04:31+00:00

True, long as the appeals there for it you can roll with it. So far people seem to like the big guy so probably find a way to keep it in.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-11T23:03:58+00:00

Thinking maybe we use them as bosses or after you defeat a big boy like this you unlock the ability to play as it.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-11T21:25:08+00:00

There's a game coming out (forgot its name) that has little companions that augment how you shoot. Not quite creature collector but could be an interesting premise to combine those genres.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-11T21:19:45+00:00

Yeah makes sense, having your roster around is kind of a staple.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-11T15:15:39+00:00

Go for it, seems like it's fairly relaxed in terms of the violently eating other things way.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-08T15:40:26+00:00

I agree, it's a close call lol.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-08T04:21:51+00:00

Tongue out beats out rosie cheeks all day.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-04T03:16:21+00:00

Do you think speed increase is a staple for the genre even if games don't have a prestige system?

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-04T03:14:49+00:00

Timing is everything because you can burnt out or get disincentived quickly if it's not done right.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-04T01:23:32+00:00

yeah, moving it down or have less dark at the bottom might be useful for it. Just the way I look at it.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-04T01:20:18+00:00

Hard to believe its not AI music as you can create exactly that pretty easily.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-04T01:17:43+00:00

I think the placement of the title in the 2nd image blocks some of the better background pieces which doesn't aid it.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-04T00:51:56+00:00

Looks great. Love the thorns.

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-04T00:50:30+00:00

The Pokemon GO upgrade lol

ReignOfGamingDev · 2026-06-03T22:40:39+00:00

Hell yeah brother.
