Demo Swap is live! 🎮 WOW! I've been overwhelmed by the number of demo play requests. Thank you all, everyone who replied has been added to the list! ❤️I will still be doing one a week, but for this week I might knock a few out! I know I said 10 minutes, this one went slightly longer at 16 mins 😅 First up: A Dark Cave by @thewaveswatcher, a dark text-based incremental. My honest feedback is in the video below. #indiedev #gamedev

I’ll kick things off - I remember playing Star Wars: TIE Fighter for the very first time using a mouse and it was extremely difficult to steer the ship! 😂
If I had to guess which intro appeared most often on my profile, I'd bet it was this one. "The Empire is on the verge of success. Soon, peace and order will be restored throughout the galaxy."

Hey Stuart! ❤️ I’m the solo developer behind REFLECT89, a little arcade game I’ve poured my heart into! 🥹 Your shield is your weapon, your reflexes are everything, and there’s even a World Ranking to compete in! The free demo is already available on Steam. I’d be incredibly happy if you gave it a look! store.steampowered.com/app/5…

Ok, friends. Today is a big step. I got an email this morning from Steam letting me know no blockers were found in my demo. So, after much sweating anjd hand-wringing, I have pressed the button to release the Ethral Demo to the public. Here is the Steam Release Trailer. Link to the game on Steam is in the first comment.
