GIMMIKO I think by @tombdude.bsky.social & @pruttemusic.bsky.social Happy pre-game day! A fun, over the top dice game. Throw your dice at enemies. The different faces trigger various things, like shooting bullets or summoning an ally to help defeat enemies. #indiegame #gamedev #indiegame

Songs of Silence by @songs-of-silence.com Currently half off in the #steamwintersale! It's a pretty fun strategy style game. Move units around a world map and then use cards to help direct units in auto-battles. I also quite like the art. Defo give the demo a try! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

The Spirit Lift by @prettysmart.bsky.social Releasing next month, give this #roguethingie #deckbuilder a try! Explore a haunted hotel, and use the magical elevator to get to the top. It's 1st person, but doesn't bother me too much since it's essentially on rails. #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Killbeat by @kalmagames.bsky.social This #roguethingie #musicgame is quite fun. Unlock a variety of items and weapons to use against enemies. Shoot, kill, and reload in time with the beat. You can even import your own custom songs! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

War Tortoise This is a neat #idlegame where you summon a variety of smaller critters such as mice and hamsters that ride and fight alongside a giant tortoise battle tank. Explore a 3d world while you do typical #idler things, like upgrading skills, armor, and weapons! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

ShapeHero Factory This #indiegame has 2 parts. First, you must build your defenders in a factory with conveyor belts within a limited time. Then, the #towerdefense ensues, #autobattler style! It's an interesting game loop that I found challenging and fun to play. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Fatermyth Yep, back on my #cardgame bullshit 🤣 An interesting #dicebuilder #deckbuilder game with a story based in Chinese mythology.The dice are used to play cards which require certain combination of faces. Give the demo a whirl! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Steam can't seem to decide on how many demos I played this year, but here ya go. I do play the demos I post about! I am not a bot! I also play a lot of demos I don't post about! I don't doom scroll, I demo scroll, and add more demos to my backlog! I'm at 415 RN! (halp 😭)

Scarlet Deer Inn by @evanavratilova.bsky.social Heeyyy, look, it's a break from card games! Beware, there is no saving in this #demo! The embroidered style of this #adventure #indiegame is quite neat. Interested in continuing the story when it's released! #indiedev #gamedev

Raiders of Blackveil is officially live in Early Access 🎉 We’re so grateful to finally share this world with you - and this is only the beginning 💚 🎥 Watch our trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2e9... 🎮 Play on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3352240/... #gamedev #indiedev #steam #roguelite

Union of Gnomes published by @herocraftpc.bsky.social Yesss it's another #roguethingie #deckbuilder. What can I say, I enjoy 'em! This has a demo & a prologue? Try them both? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Cute art, lead the gnomes in a revolution against snow white! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Vault of the Void Give this interesting #roguethingie #deckbuilder demo a try. 4 classes, 440+ cards, 320 artifacts, and an interesting shield mechanic. Always know how much damage is going to be done, no need to maths! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

StarVaders by @starvaders-game.bsky.social Play a mech fighting off an alien invasion in this #deckbuilder #roguethingie. Game is played on a grid, and enemies march toward you. Turn-based, and you can also rewind time. I found the demo quite fun, and enjoy the art! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Coridden published by @ansharpublishing.bsky.social Took a lil while for me to get used to the controls, but I enjoyed this #indiegame #arpg. Play a shapeshifter and level up both your human & beast form. Swap between both to use an array of powers. Also has 4 player co-op! #indiedev #indiegame

KAZ by @kalinarm.bsky.social This #minimalist #indiegame is simple, yet hard to stop playing. You play on a grid and you move from square to square, running into things for points. Only uses 4 buttons, and has 20 second levels. Love the art. Give yourself a hand cramp! #gamedev #indiedev

Tiny Terraces by @vuvuuinc.bsky.social Just in time for #taskbartreasureweek! This genre seems to be making a big comeback. Aging myself, again, but does anyone remember Catz/Dogz? Anyway, assign lil guys to build & decorate your terrace and farm. Nice and cozy! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Magica Planta Botanica This is a pretty neat take on a #roguethingie #deckbuilder. You use your deck to grow a tree, and roots. You have to fight off pests, and also expand your roots to get water. I'll for sure be keeping an eye out on this, try out the demo! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Decktamer published by @assembleteam.bsky.social An interesting #roguethingie #deckbuilder that takes some getting used to. You tame enemy cards, but don't get attached... there's perma death. If you run out of creatures, game over, so don't forget to tame! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Sizzle & Stack Sadly, no more demo. Discover recipes, stack ingredients, cook dishes, and feed customers in this #cardstacker #indiegame. Things can get pretty hectic, so make good use of the pause button! Or play hard mode and....don't 🤣 #indiedev #gamedev

Noobs Are Coming by @overboy-games.bsky.social Play as an MMO final boss in this #roguethingie #endlesshorde #indiegame. The "players" taunt you in typical online troll fashion. Bit silly, but I was amused. Sadly, the demo has been taken down. #gamedev #indiedev

Tiny Sticker Tale by @ogrepixel.bsky.social Absolutely adorable & super fun! Almost everything is a sticker. Put items from one area in your sticker book, and take them to another to solve puzzles. As someone with 0 energy, the puzzles are nice & not overly complex! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Do No Harm by @novruzj.bsky.social I found this demo interesting, however, there are a few QOL issues. The tutorial doesn't explain things well. I still had fun & quite liked the game idea. Brew potions & treat a variety of illnesses while trying to keep your sanity! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Game RELEASE!!! We are thrilled to announce our first #indiegame ! It's been such a journey and we couldn't come this far without your support! Check out the game ^ ^ store.steampowered.com/news/app/361... #Steam #SteamGame #gamedev #indiedev #MBTI #gamerelease #16CP-Survivors

Emoji Shooter OK, hear me out. I know it looks cheesy. But this #roguethingie is oddly satisfying? Place emojis and items on a grid, then slide the grid around to improve your strategy. Merge 3 of a kind for upgrades. IDK, just give the demo a try!🤣 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Count of Monte Clicker by @traversdeporc.bsky.social Sadly, there is no longer demo. It's a fun and short #incremental #indiegame with a beatable storyline, and several game modes to help you escape the Chateau d'Idle. Created be the #indiedev of 'Journey to Incrementalia'. #gamedev

Yollen This #idlegame is a bit grindy. But that's the point. Make number go up. And up. And up. And get a different number, and make it go up. I find it fun, but it's probably not for everyone. Luckily, you can give the demo a try and see how you like it! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Rack and Slay by @ludokultur.bsky.social I'm not big on pool, but I like the art, and this #roguethingie version is a blast! Upgrade your ball and knock the enemy balls into traps or pockets. A full run is a quick 20-30 min, try it out! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Wordatro! by @poulet.bsky.social Sure, I'm posting about a #roguethingie again, but this time it's also a #wordgame! Use bonuses to increase your points and multiplier to reach an ever increasing score goal. Also has a daily challenge! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Playing my Morse Code game but with a pair of DK Bongos 🥁🥁🦍 --- --- .... .... / --- --- .... .... / .- .... #hamradio #donkeykong #morse #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #indie #altctrl #indiedev

Decks of the Damned by @thoriangames.bsky.social Still dunno what to call this type of #roguethingie game...#cardstacker? Anyway, gameplay similar to #stacklands. Here, you'll play a vampire trying to rebuild your castle. Try it out! #indiegame #gamedev

Well, thanks to #steam and #BulletHeaven festival, I have breached 400 #gamedemos. FML ;__;

Everwayne An interesting #deckbuilder #roguethingie where you can control up to 4 characters with tactical positioning, interactive environments, and environmental hazards. Multiple endings! Needs a bit of QOL work, but I'll be keeping an eye out! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Rana Card published by @indieark.bsky.social Sadly, no more demo for this #roguethingie #deckbuilder #indiegame Play a farm manager that must meet KPIs (key performance indicator) for a tech corp. Use 300+ cards, 200+ trinkets to place plants, earn money & points ala Luck Be A Landlord #gamedev

Super Tax City Similar to Luck Be A Landlord, but, instead of rent, collect taxes in this #roguethingie #citybuilder. Features 100 different buildings, and 100 different items to meet your tax burden with a variety of combos! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Trainatic by @ryanforrester.bsky.social This is a fun semi-#idlegame where you build a long train with weaponized cars. Collect resources to upgrade. The demo is still up, but it might be a bit hard to find. It's in the right hand column. Give it a try! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Draggin' by @draggingame.bsky.social Gonna really age myself here, and say this #roguethingie #indiegame sort of reminds me of #Qix, which is great. Click & drag to make a box to capture cute "draggins", but enemies can interrupt the capture! Hard to describe, so try it out! #indiedev #gamedev

Monsters x Pit is here! In case you missed it, we teamed up with @kennysun.com for an awesome limited-time bundle. 🔥 Grab it now and enjoy 4% off both games! store.steampowered.com/bundle/63416...

Fischer's Fishing Journey Unfortunately, the demo for this adorable #idlegame has been removed. A cat fishes away for you, and you can set it to be a live wallpaper, or just chill and watch (does that sound creepy?) Collect fish, and upgrade your tank! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

I actually got a bit teary coming across this: Someone posted to the MORSE Steam forums this beautifully assembled homebrew Iambic telegraph key. JUST LOOK AT THE INTERNALS OF THIS THING #hamradio #ham #radioham #gamedev #morse #indie

Steve's Warehouse by @probablynamedsteve.bsky.social TIL the term #suika game! Items fall into a container. If 3 of the same items touch, they combine into a bigger item. Don't let them overflow! Earn points to meet a growing goal, similar to Luck Be A Landlord. #roguelike #indiegame #gamedev

Void War I had fun commanding my starship in this #FTL and #warhammer 40k inspired #strategy #rpg. Recruit crewmembers from 6 different factions to help fight your way across space. Try out the demo! If you pick it up on itchio you also get a steam key!

Insider Trading by @naiivestudio.bsky.social Number go up! Manipulate the stock market in this fun #roguethingie #deckbuilder. I found it quite challenging, trying to balance perks. Meet a deadline, similar to Luck Be A Landlord. Try the demo! #indiedev #indiegame #roguelike #gamedev

Dice Legends by @andriylukin.bsky.social & @rjaki.bsky.social I think? A #dicebuilder and #deckbuilder wombo combo with 160 lovely hand drawn cards. Features 3 chars that use a certain die: a D6 paladin, D8 assassin, and a demon summoner D12. #indiegame #roguelite #roguethingie #gamedev
