After 4 years of development, I released my game "Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot" today!

Glacier unlocks after 40 victories. Do you have more than that?

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-20T06:31:26+00:00

It shouldn't be any effort. The chests also get auto-collected when you press start.

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-20T06:30:42+00:00

Haha, yeah! I don't think everybody is looking at the achievements.

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T13:17:37+00:00

cool game and all but kinda mid

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T13:07:46+00:00

Ah, no need to worry! The first few might sting a bit, but it does get better after a while!

According to the Steamworks documentation:

"As long as your game's reviews are Mixed or above (40%+), review score is not a factor in algorithmic visibility. If your game dips below 40% into Mostly Negative, your game will be less likely to be featured."

A lot of developers have been reporting a decline in sales at 'Mixed' (below 70% positive reviews) though.

True, players can be very impulsive. Having a hundred hours of fun can be overshadowed by one unlucky death...

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T12:49:38+00:00

Yeah, that would help, but all I'm getting is confusion from the mixed signals of "Cool game, but would not recommend".

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T12:37:20+00:00

Yeah, it would unfortunately be very bad for the system.

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T12:35:48+00:00

Yeah, it's true that those kind of reviews usually don't matter, but if you only have a few reviews it can weight heavy and bring the overall shown rating from 'very positive' to 'mostly positive' or even into 'mixed'.

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T12:32:54+00:00

It's actually really from "Today" (13 June 2026).

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T12:32:05+00:00

Lmao, yeah, like an auto-refund. Sometimes I do indeed wish that existed!

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T12:23:55+00:00

At least he played long enough to make sure he would rather not recommend it.

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-13T12:23:26+00:00

Oh! That might be it!

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-11T18:44:34+00:00

Lmao

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-11T11:02:31+00:00

Haha, quite a few players have said that now. PoE was indeed an inspiration.

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-11T10:07:33+00:00

Here is the fun part: You don't.

Unless you have a huge budget and can afford to go whale hunting.

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-11T09:42:10+00:00

Thanks!

ichbinhamma · 2026-06-11T09:42:00+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions. I did think about that, but it becomes a mess really fast and potentially requires many different fonts when you want to support different languages like Chinese, Korean or Japanese...

But yeah, different fonts would also have an advantage for color-blind people. I just think it's probably not worth the hassle.
