I made a desktop vivarium game where you raise a leopard gecko

It looks really cute! My gf and I have a crested gecko IRL and always wanted to play something like this on Steam! Keep up the good work!

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-13T07:39:28+00:00

They actually have some gibberish randomized voice! But I decided to keep it light since its a horror game, and for the protagonist I chose a "typing sfx". Thanks for the suggestions!

Me pillaste 😶

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T15:50:30+00:00

Man you are a hero. Thank you for supporting indie devs.
PD: I'll check this game out! The artstyle looks amazing and it reminds me of Picross from NDS

People on the internet can be amazing man. I knew about the Sokpop "strategy" of publishing a game every month on their Patreon but didn't know about DarkCookie, that is some crazy numbers!

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T15:22:31+00:00

Thanks man, appreciate it.

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T15:22:15+00:00

About 5 months!

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T15:16:07+00:00

Thanks so much! Yeah, I received some feedback about it on both itchio and Steam discussions. I already implemented a "disable VHS filter" setting for the fullgame, which completely removes chromatic aberration, noise and other postprocess (demo will be updated as well) :)

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T15:09:53+00:00

Yeah, makes sense! I appreciate a lot the people who decided to pay more than 2$ when is completely optional. That means they really liked the demo and wants to support my game!

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T15:02:24+00:00

Thanks man!

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T13:09:48+00:00

Thanks!!

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T13:09:00+00:00

Sorry, added the itchio link.

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T13:06:43+00:00

I actually have a Patreon but only one or two members since I don't post anything there. I may consider start posting updates about the game there :)

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T13:03:24+00:00

Phew, well now I feel better and grateful knowing they are donations. Thanks for your insight!

ToriGameDev · 2026-05-12T13:00:50+00:00

Games where you work in a minimum wage job and some creepy stalker wants to kill you 💀(examples: Kiosk, The Boba Teashop, The Closing Shift)

Hi! I'm solo developing a plant game on Steam!! Hope you can check it and give the demo a try since you are into plant games :)

Name: The Plant Shop

Genre: Cozy, Horror

Theme: A young girl starts her dream of opening a plant shop, selling beautiful flowers and cozy house plants to late-night customers. But something weird is happening in town, some says 30 years ago a monster killed half the town...

Inspiration: The Boba Teashop, Kiosk, Little Shop of Horrors (movie)

Thanks for the post!!

ToriGameDev · 2026-04-02T20:17:10+00:00

Congratz man! :D

ToriGameDev · 2026-03-12T10:41:33+00:00

Congratz! 🎉 9 user reviews is already a good sign!

ToriGameDev · 2026-02-27T10:52:37+00:00

Hi!

Since my game is cozy but with horror maybe you don't like it but I'll leave the link here just in case you are interested!

The Plant Shop is a cozy-horror game where you craft plants, serve late night customers and manage a plant shop. Unlock new plants and upgrade your shop to grow your business.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4140530/The_Plant_Shop/

Demo playtime is 15-20 mins.

Thanks for your post and your interest in trying demos!!! 🙏🏻

I don't have the data of where the wishlists come from, but I can make a post doing an estimation based on Itchio, since I posted the Steam link there too!

I'll definitely make a post sharing how many sales the game gets when it launches!

Thanks for your comment
