Nyakuza Games | ニャクザ・ゲームズ

Sure! I applied on Nov 8 but was denied on Nov 13 since I hadn’t released a game under my solo studio yet.

I reapplied after Happy Hotel launched on Steam (Dec 5), and got approved Dec 18.

Maybe my dev experience helped. Dev kit’s not cheap, but rest went smoothly!

Hope it goes well for you too!

Happy Hotel is now on the Nintendo Switch eShop worldwide! 🎉

My first solo project under Nyakuza Games is now out on all 3 major platforms: Steam, PS5, and Switch. 🎮🐰

Thanks to everyone who supported it! 🙏

Just search “Happy Hotel” on the eShop to check it out. 🔎

On to the next. 🚀

First launched on Steam, now making its console debut! Seeing it on PlayStation feels surreal.

Check it out on PS5 today & let me know what you think!

And here are some pics from the event! Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, and the Toads bringing the holiday vibes. 🍄✨

Yes please! Solo dev here. Love starter packs if you have the room! Thanks! :D

⏳ Happy Hotel opens in 3 days!!! 🏨✨
No time for long games? Happy has doubts. He's judging you now.😒
Good news: It’s short, spooky, and costs less than one of those tall caramel frappa-whatsits you humans seem to love. ☕👻

As promised I present the Game Dev BOOSTER PACK | comment below with an image/video if you'd like to be added to the pack!

I just looked it up. Are you talking about the sweet chili pepper one? That sounds kind of awesome! 🔥😋

Corn pizza from Saizeriya in Japan. There's a LOT of corn.

Bluesky feels like it has 3 main posts that pop up in my feed outside of my usual #indiegame content:
1️⃣ Wolves 🐺
2️⃣ Moons 🌕
3️⃣ Pizza 🍕
Just me? Cool cool. 😅

My contribution: Went to Saizeriya for sausage pizza, but they were out. Panic-ordered this corn pizza instead. Was the whole can necessary? 🌽

Solo game dev with a game releasing on Steam this week! Would love to be added if you've got the room. Cheers! 👋

I've made a little starter pack of some cool indie devs and game artists making some really cool games if you are new here & trying to find your people :) 🦋

For years I tried to explain mine to people and everyone looked at me like I was nuts. Luckily mine don't get the headaches and are pretty infrequent. Only discovered what they were in the last couple of years. Feeling seen (unless you've got one right now) 😜

I still get these like once every 1-6 months but never knew what they were until the last year or two. I feel seen!👁️ (...or not, if you have an active one right now) 😅

was inspired to make another indie dev pack.

all indie devs are welcomed. including members from the previous pack.

just comment below.
i'd love to hear what games you're making too!
