Wrote quite a bit of text about how my demo launch went down last week. Spoiler: Not at all as expected! There were quite a few surprises, both bad and good 😊 Give it a read over on Reddit if that sounds interesting to you: www.reddit.com/r/IndieDev/c... #indiedev

The Greenening is participating in the Cozy Job Simulators event on Steam! I love how multifaceted (and cute) the games in this event are, make sure to check it out 😊 store.steampowered.com/curator/4568... #CozySimFest #indiegames

Huge thanks to everyone who played, shared & gave feedback on The Greenening demo! 💚 The response has been kind, constructive & way bigger than I expected. Lots to think about now, but it's a great place to be in 😊 Haven’t tried it yet? 🌱 store.steampowered.com/app/3634980/... #indiedev

Today is the release day of my demo. It's also the day of a major power outage in the south-east of Berlin - where I live and work. I'll do it anyway. Wish me luck 😊

Incredibly excited to announce that The Greenening Demo will be out TOMORROW on Steam! 🌱 Can’t wait to hear your thoughts about this wholesome incremental journey I've been building for the better part of the year 😊 store.steampowered.com/app/3441280/... #indiedev #indiegame

This just in 😮 Probably still two or three weeks until the actual release to polish and fix things, but it's coming soon! I'm pretty nervous and excited already, can't wait to hear what people think 😊 (Gamescom was really nice and affirming in that regard) #indiegames #indiedev

Really happy to be a part of the #BackToSchool games celebration happening this week on Steam! It features lots of awesome educational and nature-themed games (the latter category hosting The Greenening 😊) Check it out here: store.steampowered.com/curator/4469... #indiegames

Imagine my (very pleasant) surprise to see my #godot game featured in this #unity newsletter that I've been subscribed to for quite some time! 😊 (and stayed after my engine-switch because there's also a lot of general #indiedev goodness in there)

I'm at #gamescom! And The Greenening will be publicly playable for the first time ever at the Amaze booth in the middle of Hall 10.2 (E030). It takes the spotlight today between 2pm and 4pm, come by and say hi if you like ☺️

Updated my website today to be more concise, responsive and, well, just nicer overall 😊 Have a look if you like: erkberggames.com (did this mostly in preparation for gamescom for which I already printed some business cards with a website-link on them to force me to finally update it ^^)

As we all know the game industry is going through very turbulent times, unfortunately this has also affected several members of our collective. The silver lining is that one of the largest rooms in our coworking space in Berlin will be available from September 1st. More info in thread...

Here’s something special: The wonderfully wholesome new game from my friends at Spellgarden! ✨ They really put their hearts into this one and it shows 🥰 And I did too! (during a couple of months of dev support) So, do yourself a favor and play it - it’s a really lovely game 😊

Just noticed that the wishlist comparison descriptors for the three thingies I got on Steam are beautifully colorful 🎨 Can you guess which one is which? 😊 (options are my upcoming game The Greenening, my first game Recollection and the Recollection soundtrack)

Super happy that both Recollection (at its lowest price ever) and The Greenening are part of the "Games Forged in Germany" Steam event! Please check out these amazing games by awesome devs from Germany (among them many friends of mine 💚) store.steampowered.com/sale/Games-F... #indiedev #gamedev

The #SteamSummerSale2025 is in full swing, and Recollection is now available at its lowest price yet! If you're longing for a relaxing and introspective night walk on these hot summer days, then this game might just be for you 😊 store.steampowered.com/app/1804610/... #indiegames

Added a new gameplay mechanic to The Greenening this week: Water clusters! They can be charged and explode when full, clearing a big area. They can also be chained together, which is quite fun 😊 (new colorful bushes in there too) store.steampowered.com/app/3441280/... #screenshotsaturday #indiedev

The Greenening is a short incremental game about exploring and revitalizing a forlorn world 🌱 🔍🗺️ Discover your hidden surroundings ⏫💧 Upgrade your versatile watering abilities 🚀🌺 Grow a cozy space garden store.steampowered.com/app/3441280/... #pitchyagame

Updated the trailer and Steam page for The Greenening today to reflect the latest changes and especially to incorporate the main character of the game (most likely named Sparkle😊) Feedback and shares much appreciated! 💚 store.steampowered.com/app/3441280/... #indiegames #indiedev

Has it been 2 years already since the release of Recollection? Time sure does fly 😊 Here's two special presents to celebrate 1. Permanent price drop from 4.99 to 1.99 $/€! 2. Soundtrack now available! store.steampowered.com/app/1804610/... erkberg.bandcamp.com/album/recoll... #indiegames #indiedev

The Greenening just got some shiny new effects! ✨ The cloud trail, dust particles and watering effect are subtle enough to not be distracting, but make the game feel much more alive, I think. How do you like them? store.steampowered.com/app/3441280/... #indiedev #indiegames

#INDIELiveExpo is live right now, showcasing a ton of awesome #indiegames! The Greenening is making an appearance too 😉 www.youtube.com/live/iQM26fw...

Adding a trail to my cloud, first try might be "a bit" much but looks pretty cool in its own way 😁 #indiedev

We love games that calm you down – and quietly pull you in. That’s why we’re excited to be publishing Lyca – a small incremental game where you help a magical wolf restore a barren land into a blooming meadow 🐺🌸 Created by solo dev @syphono4.com. Launching April 7. #indiegame #incrementalgame

Am I a #solodevsurvivor? Not sure, as I make most of my income from freelancing and only a small fraction from #indiedev. But maybe that'll change (at least a tiny bit) with my upcoming second game The Greenening, a short incremental game about water, life and discovery. 🌱

The devastating news of the day: The studio I worked at for more than 4 years before going solo is shutting down 💔 Their games and the time I spent there were amazing and will always mean a lot to me. They're such talented and lovely people and I hope everyone lands safely!

The wonderful news of the day: The demo for Ritual of Raven from my friends at @spellgardengames.com is available now on Steam! I did quite a bit of freelance development for the game and can heartily and very personally recommend checking out (and wishlisting) this gem of cozy gaming!
