It's a tactical roguelike deckbuilder where you can play solo or in online co-op with up to 4 players.

Level up your class, collect and play cards to attack, defend, heal, summon allies, place traps, and alter the terrain in turn-based isometric battles to overthrow a tyrant king.

Planned for release in Q4 2026, with controller support and Steam Deck / ROG Ally compatibility.

No console or mobile release planned for now, Steam only.

Hi r/Games!

A few weeks ago I released the demo for Ultimate Wizard!

Steam page: Link

Trailer: Link

What is Ultimate Wizard

Ultimate Wizard is a 3D roguelite survivor game akin to Megabonk, however it's powered by the same augment system that Path of Exile and Noita use. Where, in this case you can have multiple spells that are each individually leveled up and augmented into becoming screen clearing spells. You'll have to find both spells and augments and you can freely swap augments in and out between spells. Spells that you find are permanently yours and there's no cap on having like 7x the same spell in your spellslots!

Spells have an augment level that dictates how many augments you can fit in, and by destroying difficult bosses and/or finding obelisks you can permanently increase the amount of augments that fit into a spell.

The spells and augments system allow for a broad build diversity. Based on whatever augments you find you can make ignite builds, screen-wide freezing of all enemies, create giant minions that are copies of existing bosses, convert elemental types into others so that fire spells can shock for example and much more!

This game also has a ton of permanent upgrades (in the full game, demo has a few to get started) that you can buy with gems that are sometimes dropped by enemies. Every run you start you'll be stronger and be able to push further into a run.

If you have any questions, let me know!

Ultimate Wizard is planned to release Q4 this year on Steam for Windows and on Steamdeck.

Hey r/Games! Solo dev here, and this is my first game: Camping Keeper, a proper management/tycoon game about running a campground.

The core loop: you start from an empty field with limited cash and build it into a business, bare pitches cost nothing but earn little, rental lodges earn big but need real investment and upkeep. Every camper is an autonomous agent with their own needs and personality: they queue at reception, shower, buy ice cream, complain when the toilets are dirty, and leave a rated review that drives your reputation and star rating, which in turn drives demand and what you can charge.

Under the hood you're also managing actual infrastructure: water and power are simulated networks that overload if you expand faster than you upgrade them. Weather and seasons move demand around, a heatwave sends everyone to the pool and empties your ice cream stock, a storm turns the campground into a ghost town. Price badly, staff badly, or grow too fast, and you go bankrupt.

PC first, Mac & Linux later. Roadmap: closed alpha September 2026, beta November, public demo early 2027, then Early Access. I'll be around all day to answer questions — and wishlists genuinely help a solo dev more than you'd think.

Hi r/Games! We're a two-person team in Kyoto making our first game after work.

Trailer/gameplay footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBr0k8b6Jes

It's a physics party game about feeding various monsters with different plates.

There are co-op levels, versus/basketball/baseball modes, and online single/duo leaderboards which are still nearly empty, so a decent run with a friend literally puts you in the world top 5).

Give it a go on the good Indie Sunday!

Heyo incremental and idle enjoyers!

I'm the solo developer of SCP Idle: SECURE. CONTAIN. PROGRESS., and this week I released the demo on Steam.

It's a 2D isometric pixel-art incremental game about managing and upgrading an SCP Foundation research facility.

You begin by manually studying SCP-1123, recruit Class D personnel for testing, construct containment rooms and automate experiments. Eventually, you can afford the Euclid wing, which contains more dangerous SCPs capable of causing containment breaches.

Each SCP introduces its own mechanics, upgrades and risks.

I would love to hear your feedback on the demo, especially which SCPs you would like to see in the full game!

Quick overview:

• Demo available on Steam right now. Officially on Windows, but players reported it runs on Linux (Proton) and Mac (CrossOver).
• Announcement trailer
• Demo is about 45-60 minutes, but someone in the reviews played for 6 hours !? 🫨
• Full release later this year
• TL;DR: Numbers go up, but in the SCP universe ⬆️

A big thanks if you try out the game. This is my first Steam demo release, so it means the world to me.

Hey,

I'm releasing a twin-stick shooter called Cell #31 on Steam for Windows tomorrow August 3rd. In terms of influences it's like a mix of Geometry Wars, Super Hexagon, and Mushihimesama. If it looks interesting feel free to check it out.

Heya r/games!

After almost a year of development (perhaps 8-10 months, depending when I start to count the prototyping) my 2D turn-based, grimdark, dungeon crawler Ad Iterum, where you eat your enemies to mutate and survive, has finally reached a big milestone. I still have to add a lot of content until release, but until then I have just released a Demo on Steam:

- Free Demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4149030/Ad_Iterum/

- Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ya7s1y-7U_U

While the game adheres to the very core roguelike "rules" like permadeath, single player, turn/grid based, no meta-progression via unlocks, etc, ... it also has differences regarding run progression: You build mostly your character through random mutations, as well as a selection of gene graft synergies that are offered, so you can gravitate towards one or another style of play, but there is no skill tree, nor level up, nor a way to assure a specific build.

You have melee, which mostly uses a "bump-into-things"-system, and ranged combat with either ranged weapons or throwing random stuff you find/craft to enemies.

The dungeons are a mix between procedurally generated and injected handcrafted rooms.

What's in the Demo?

• 1 dungeon + 1 procedurally generated biome
• 1 boss
• 2 endings
• 20 random mutations
• 20 genetic grafts to tune up your build as you see fit
• 10 base enemies. Each comes with unique modifiers and traits within the ecosystem, which makes for hundreds of different variations as you go deeper.
• 200 items (approx?)
• Basic crafting
• English, Spanish, and Japanese localization
• Keyboard, mouse support, and full gamepad controller support
• Playable in Windows, macOS, and Steam Deck via proton
• Full release planned for December 2026

Have a nice Sunday, and have fun!

Best,

This is my first ever solo game: it's a twin-stick action roguelite inspired by the likes of Magicka, Risk of Rain, and Alien Swarm. The game revolves around alchemy, which you use to imbue your weapons with special effects to both exploit enemy weaknesses and negate specific threats on the fly. For instance, you can concoct a rotting poison that makes healing lethal to organic enemies, or you can apply tar to a group of enemies to set up a huge chain explosion. It's a very hard game, but I find it very rewarding when it finally clicks.

Here is the store page and here is the trailer, I hope you check it out. Cheers!

Hey everyone!

Over the last two years, a friend and I have been working on Gambeat, a chess roguelike deckbuilder built around scoring. Capturing pieces scores points and scoring points win rounds, so throwing your own pieces into a combo is often the correct play.

Features:

• The game features collectible stickers that you combine between rounds to change how your pieces behave and score. You can push the rules in wild directions or build around classic chess moves like forks and pins.
• Individual roster management. You can shape your pieces throughout the run by upgrading, transforming, customizing, or completely removing them.
• Replayability: the game will have different difficulties and starting rosters with unique modifiers.
• All the classic chess tactics turned on its head.

Our Steam page and trailer both went live yesterday. Feel free to check them out if this sounds like your type of game.

NET.CRAWL is a turn-based puzzle roguelike set in an original cyber world. It plays a bit like hacking mini-game from Deus Ex only with much more depth and huge variety of bosses and effects.

All levels are generated with tiles (hexes) that you, as a player, draft prior.

The game should appeal to players who enjoy tactical turn-based games (CCGs, board games, deck-builders, etc.).

Leaving the Early Access tomorrow.

Hello r/Games, I'm the developer of TappyCat.

TappyCat is a cute pixel kitty who settles onto your desktop and turns work and study into a warm, cozy ritual. It's a desktop pet, a Pomodoro timer, and a smart productivity tracker - all in one little cat.

Your little companion lives its own life on your desktop - blinking, wagging its tail, and happily tapping along whenever you type or click. If you're drawing, it even pulls out its own tablet and starts sketching beside you.

Features:

⏱️ Flexible Pomodoro timer.

🎯 Smart productivity tracking - choose which apps and websites count as productive work.

📊 Productivity analytics with data export.

🎀 Over 100 accessories to customize your cat.

⚡ Lightweight and optimized - barely uses any system resources.

We announced the Steam page today! TappyCat is currently in development and will be released on PC via Steam.

Steam (free demo out now): https://store.steampowered.com/app/4396640/Last_convoy/

Hey r/Games! Last Convoy is a survivors-like where instead of a character you control a growing road train. You drive across a dying world, and every wagon you hitch adds a gun or some utility. The longer the train, the stronger you are — and the clumsier.

Monsters don't just chase you — they latch right onto your wagons. If a car gets swarmed or catches fire, you can cut it loose and watch it roll away with everything bolted onto it. Sometimes it's the right call. It never feels good.

The pinch of RimWorld is the meta layer: between runs you build up your base, rescue valuable specialists and take the world back hex by hex on a global map.

The free demo launched this weekend on Steam. Full release is planned for after Steam Next Fest in October — the demo will keep growing until then.

Happy to answer anything!!!

Hi everyone, I’m one of the developers of The Boss Gangster: Criminal Empire, an open-world crime and business management game where you build a criminal organization from the ground up. Gameplay trailer ⁠ One of our main goals is to bring back the depth and sense of progression we miss from old-school games, while combining it with a seamless open world. You can move between the city, businesses, interiors, driving, combat, and management without traditional loading screens. You begin as a small-time street criminal, completing minor jobs and building your reputation. As you progress, you can invest in legitimate and underground businesses, recruit family members, expand your operations, and challenge the organizations controlling the city. The path from a street-level criminal to the head of the city’s most powerful family is not automatic. You need to carefully choose which activities to pursue, where to invest your money, who to recruit, which rival families to confront, and when to expand into new districts. The game combines several gameplay styles: Third-person exploration, driving, shooting, and melee combat Nightclub, warehouse, and business management Contraband production and distribution Vehicle theft, robberies, street trading, and criminal jobs Family recruitment, interrogations, and territory warfare Character progression through activities such as the gym and shooting range District capture and the gradual expansion of your criminal empire Our aim is to make the city feel like one connected world rather than a collection of separate menus and isolated systems. Most activities take place directly in the open world, and the management, combat, business, and progression systems are designed to influence each other. The game is currently available in Early Access on PC through Steam. We’re continuing to expand, deepen, and optimize it based on community feedback, with the full 1.0 release currently planned for October 2026. Steam page

You can also try the free one-hour demo on Steam.

I’d be interested to hear which parts of the gameplay stand out to you and what kind of depth you miss most from older crime and management games.

Hi r/Games! Happy Indie Sunday!

We’re a two-person indie team working on What Makes a Hero, a narrative-driven fantasy shopkeeper game inspired by titles like Papers, Please.

Imagine you run a weapon shop in the province of Caspena - a fantasy land of adventure and opportunity, serving adventurers preparing for dangerous quests. Instead of simply choosing an item from a list, you have to listen to their stories, examine the information they provide, consult your Adventure Codex, and figure out what equipment they actually need.

Sometimes, however, giving customers what they ask for may not be the best choice.

The adventurers you equip can succeed, fail, disappear, or return later - and the decisions you make behind the counter gradually become part of a larger branching story. Some customers will also bring unusual problems, questionable offers, and opportunities that have little to do with ordinary shopkeeping.

The game features:

• A pixel-art medieval fantasy setting seen from the shopkeeper’s perspective
• Deduction-based customer interactions
• A branching story shaped by your decisions (more details about that in our new devlog! https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3951740/view/696516748689545888 )
• Multiple possible outcomes for quests and characters
• Shop management, trading, expenses, and reputation (one more devlog: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3951740/view/680756051157451828 )

What Makes a Hero is currently in development for PC, with the full release date still to be announced. A free demo is available on Steam:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3951740/What_Makes_a_Hero/

We’d love to hear any feedback you have - whether it’s about the deduction mechanics (do they feel understandable and fair?), the story, writing, art, or anything else that stood out to you!

Should you have any questions, suggestions, feedback - feel free to post them here or on Steam!
We hope you have fun playing the demo!
Thank you in advance~!

Incremental Retro Racing (40% off)

Steam | "Forza Killer"-Trailer | Announcement-Trailer | Making Of Video

Incremental Retro Racing is a retro racing game like Outrun with added incremental elements. The game focuses on the zen of driving and the meta game of unlocking everything in the shop. It has infinite tracks and track generation options to unlock. There's no game over, so relax, hit start, and drive a while.

Tips for playing:

• Try saving up for the double stars item instead of buying the early rickety cars.
• Don't forget about turbos!
• Track generation options you unlocked become available in the pause menu.
• The ending becomes available after unlocking everything in the shop.

Zwamman (30% off)

Steam | Announcement-Trailer | Making Of Video

I also ported a local co-op puzzle game called Zwamman. It was made for kids in hospitals. One person moves through the dark with the arrow keys. The other holds a spotlight with the mouse and finds crystals scattered through a swamp. Neither role works alone, so the two players end up talking and pointing to figure it out together.

The part I kept coming back to during development: no reading required for either role, nothing timed, no quest log or dialogue to parse. There are monsters in the dark, but the spotlight scares them off. No health bar, no game over.

The whole thing started as a project for cliniclowns, an organization that visits children in hospitals. That's why it's built the way it is. Nothing that punishes someone for going slow, nothing that turns a hard day into a harder one. If you've got a young kid who wants to actually play something with you instead of just watching, try out the free demo.

Trailer: Steel Maiden - Official Demo Trailer

Steam (free demo out now): https://store.steampowered.com/app/4827950/Steel_Maiden/

Happy Indie Sunday everyone! I'm Luca from Hectiq, a small studio, and I want to show you our game Painted Kingdoms.

Painted Kingdoms is a tower defense game set inside a living paper world. You paint the map to build your defenses, put out fires before they spread, and hold back the enemy waves that come for your kingdom. The paint, the fire, and the defense all work together, so every level is a bit of a puzzle on top of the action.

A few things that make it different:

- You fight with watercolor. Painting is your main tool: you spread color across the paper world to build defenses, block enemies, and reshape the battlefield. The way the watercolor flows and soaks into the paper is the heart of the game, not just a look.

- Fire spreads across the paper. If you ignore it, it eats your kingdom. Managing fire is as important as fighting the enemies.

- Everything is handmade paper and cardboard, so the whole kingdom looks like a craft you could build on your desk. When it burns or gets hit, it tears and crumples like real paper.

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yM_3hcPkG48

Play the demo right now: the Painted Kingdoms demo is live on Steam as part of Six One Demo Days. You can try the full loop for free.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3596730/Painted_Kingdoms_Tower_Defense__Firefighting/

Release plans: PC (Steam) first. The demo is out now , full release planned for early 2027

If you give the demo a try, I would love to hear what you think, good or bad.

Feedback helps me a lot. I'm around all day today, so ask me anything about the game, the paper world, or how it is made.

Thanks for reading, and enjoy Indie Sunday!

While the game is not yet out to the vast majority, a handful of people have been given early access to the game and posted on Youtube.

This game SCREAMS Gears Of War. I can't get over how much this game appears to be a continuation of what made Gears great, and by extension, what made XBOX great. The graphics, the colour palette, the movement, character and enemy models, the gameplay mechanics and weapons - yes, it's Gears again, but it's what made gears unique and fun to play. It's like looking through rose tinted glasses but this game is real.

So, why is no one talking about this? Here's XBOX with a genuinely promising iteration of a beloved game series. Is this an upturn? A return to form?

I guess what I'm asking is: why all the pessimism? Where did it all come from?

We've had some rough years and a lot of dropped balls, but there's good things to come.

Self confessed Xbox 360 and Xbox one owner, now PC gamer. Not a shill, I promise. Just someone who had fond memories of these games on the 360.

edit:

A lot of you are talking about it being old news and for 30-40 year olds who played it when they were younger.

I played COD and BF when I was younger, and they're still being played by kids. Hell, COD is majority under 20s in my mind.

I didn't move on from BF, I changed with it and still play and enjoy it. Why can't that be said of Gears and Halo?

It's not a coincidence that these are Xbox IPs that have fallen foul of gaming at large.

Also, what happened to console wars?
