One Last Sacrifice Closed Beta is coming. Join us on March 13. #indiegame #autobattler #gamedev

Tuned my creature placement animation. First boring. Then snappy. Now snappy and impactful. Quite happy with the result. #indiedev #autobattler

Mockery forces enemies to hit your taunt. Meanwhile your Vultureblade sits on a flanking position picking off their weakest unit. Positioning games within positioning games.

Genuine question for auto-battler fans: how important is lore to you? Do you care WHY you're placing creatures on a board or is the gameplay enough on its own?

Which sounds more fun? A) Sync PvP -- both players live B) Async PvP -- play at your own time again a real board, just not live OLS has both. But which one would you actually play more?

Balatro proved a card game with weird mechanics can find a massive audience. That gives me hope every single day. What's the weirdest game mechanic that actually hooked you?

What's the ideal match length for an auto-battler? Reply with a number in minutes. I've got playtest data but I want to see if it matches what you actually want.

I wanted a fantasy world that felt genuinely alien. Not "Earth but with magic." Not "Tolkien but darker." Something where you look at a creature and think "what IS that." What game world felt the most genuinely strange to you?

What's more satisfying? A) One massive creature destroying everything B) A full board of synergizing units working together Wrong answers only.

Storybook Brawl was the best auto-battler ever made and its shutdown left a hole in the genre. I'm not trying to copy it. I'm trying to fill that same feeling of "my choices actually matter." What did SBB do that no other auto-battler has matched?

I keep a "bad ideas" document. 47 pages. Highlights include: "creatures that evolve based on real-world weather" and "a faction that only works on Tuesdays." What's the worst game idea you've ever had? I need to feel better about mine.

Today's solo dev schedule: - Morning: fix matchmaking bug - Afternoon: design new creature - Evening: answer Discord messages - Night: wonder if I should've just made a platformer What does your dev day look like?

Creatures in OLS have two upgrade tiers. Not just stat bumps - actual ability changes. Splitspawn Blob starts summoning 2/1 Bloblings on death. Fully upgraded? It summons copies of itself. Same creature, completely different threat. What's the wildest unit evolution you've seen in a game?

No elves. No dragons. No pay-to-win. Just tactical creature combat where your decisions actually matter. And your creatures carry between matches. What would make you try a new auto-battler right now?

Thinking about running community tournaments during the closed beta. Would you rather see 1v1 brackets or 8 player eliminiation style tournaments?

What's your biggest frustration with current auto-battlers? Serious question. I read every reply and it directly affects what I build.

After years of following and supporting #indiegames and #gamedev, it’s finally happening: Our game "Kernelbay" has a "Coming Soon" page on @steampowered.com and we're part of the Fishing Fest! 🎣 It would mean the world if you could wishlist & repost🙏 store.steampowered.com/app/3686480/...

A strong start carries you far #gamedev #autobattler

Poll time. What kills an auto-battler fastest? - Bad balance patches - Lack of content updates - Pay-to-win mechanics - Toxic community

When I started this project, "persistent creatures between matches" was supposed to be a small feature. It changed everything. The meta, the economy, the drafting. It redesigned the entire game. What's a "small" feature that ended up taking over your project?

Solo dev from Germany. Building the auto-battler I always wanted to play. 5 factions, persistent progression, no pay-to-win. Beta in March. What's the one thing you wish auto-battlers did differently? #WishlistWednesday #indiegame

Tag someone who misses Storybook Brawl. I have something for them.

What a beautiful name for my sibling.

Made this entire game in Godot. No regrets. The engine is free, the community is incredible, and "made with Godot" just sounds cool. What engine are you using for your project?

When your creature dies in One Last Sacrifice, it drops a sacrificial resource. Soul essence. You use those to fuel your semi-permanent deck. So yeah, losing a unit isn't always losing. #indiegame #gamedev

Working on One Last Sacrifice today and one of our card combos accidentally wiped an entire board in a single turn. We're keeping it.

I’ve spent months tuning how units in my auto-battler. On paper, the math works. In practice? I need your eyes to tell me if it truly feels good. PM me to Join the playtest this Thursday (Feb 5). Break my systems, find the fun and friction. #Autobattler #HSBG #Cardbattler

Strategists Wanted! I’m running a playtest for my PvP Autobattler, One Last Sacrifice, next Thursday (Feb 5, 20:00 - 23:00 CET). Game is playable in browser. PM me for a link to the playtest build. #IndieGame #GameDev #Playtest

Working on Steam capsule art is humbling. My first attempt looked like… well, something unlikely to sell. After hiring a professional, it actually communicates my game better. Curious what folks think about readability at small sizes and the new version hinting the genre? #indiedev #gamedev

The new mushroom-themed RTS-inspired autobattler Beyond the Grove is coming to Early Access, coming out on Steam this November. #indiedev #indiegame

Testing the dice rolling revive mechanics in my game autobattler game. It needs some juice, but i like it. #GodotEngine #inventorymanagement #indiegame

I miss the times when the internet was still innocent. 100% signal and no noise. Ironic I'm posting this on social media... #goodoldtimes

Running a playtesting session for my autobattler OLS later today, 8pm - 11pm CET. Send me a DM if you want to participate. Game can be played in the browser. #Autobattler #Playtest #mtg

If fortune favors you, my game may grant the "Defensive Deployment" Arena Perk: boosting a creature's stats by +0/+1 with each summon. This synergizes well with creatures that duplicate or create units, as the defensive boost applies with each new card added to your field! #Autobattler #Arena #mtg

I've added Crafting to my Card Battler! After a match you receive Crafting Materials to improve the creatures in your Deck - and come back stronger. The additional modifiers unlock new tactics and reward you with a sense of progression. #autobattler #cardbattler #mtg #tactics

People in my hometown meet to eat pudding with a fork... Might as well find some crazy people, playing my whacky Autobattler =) #pudding #autobattler #fork #indiegame

I'm adding a POE like Crafting System to my Autobattler "One Last Sacriifice" #Autobattler #Indiegamedev #IndieGame #mtg store.steampowered.com/app/4019040/...

OLS Faction Reveal: The Order Civilization demands sacrifice. Under Maevor Atra, "harmony" is enforced, not negotiated. They'll outlast you with defensive buffs and turn their endurance into domination. Wishlist now! -> Profile. #autobattler #indiedev #mtg #cardbattler #nop2w

Meet the Splitspawn Blob. My game world is more on the side of harsh and unforgiving. Yet my wife calls this little thing “cute”. Not sure if I should change the picture. #autobattler #indiegame #cardbattler #mtg
