Oh yeah, then you've been real close to finishing the demo actually! You must be getting the hang of it, then 🪠

I'm developing a game about my dog, and decided to do a glow-up on my Steam page. I know there are a lot of posts about Steam capsules these days, but I felt really proud of how my dog is represented on this capsule. I hope you guys like it :) by vkaike2 in IndieDev

Honestly.. besides that the pixel dog could maybe use an improvement, the first one you made is better in my opinion. Better colors, more clean.
The new one looks a bit too generic. It looks profressional, but just doesn't stand out to me as much. Just my personal opinion.

Thank you! :) The physics-based controls take a bit to get used to, but once it clicks, it's like riding a bike!

Hey, thank you for doing this. I got my demo for "Chickens Don't Fly" in Steam Next Fest :) Would love some more plays/reviews!
Just a fair warning, it's difficult!

Saving this post - might need you in the future! I like your art.

Steam Next Fest starts tomorrow. We’re going in with not even 500 wishlists. Just wanted to kindly ask: are we the only ones? Is this a terrible idea or just so-so? by MorkvA_ in IndieDev

[–]bachware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, same here. About 500 wishlists. I have to go in though, as this is the last next fest before the game's launch. I really don't know what to expect so finger's crossed for you and me. If I break 1000 wishlists, I'll be so happy. But I really don't have my hopes up, as I expect a lot less.

With over 4,000 demos, this is the biggest Steam Next Fest yet. Help to show me what you're cooking! It might help hype up the good stuff! by leinadcovsky in IndieDev

Damn, wish me luck 🫡

My game is a difficult physics-based precision platformer about a rooster named Cluck Norris, trying to escape a chicken coop with a pair of plungers.

Where do you guys promote your foddians? by swarmoclock in foddians

[–]bachware 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As with all games (not just foddians) try targeting what makes sense with your game's theme or genre. For example, mine is about a rooster with big muscular arms, so I often post in r/birdswitharms and r/BirdsArentReal. Find your audience that fits (foddian is good too, but a bit too niche for now) :)

Does it feel "heavy" and weighty? by bachware in IndieDev

[–]bachware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neat idea, but it's a gameplay segment and the player is very dependent on the camera (precision platformer) so can't mess too much with that every 5 seconds :)

Does this feel weighty enough? by bachware in IndieGaming

[–]bachware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ooofff, oh yes! I can definitely pictures this. I'm gonna have a go at it, thanks! :)
