Announcement!
Rift Riff releases on May 9.

It's a tower defense game with a strategic mix of juicy tower loadouts, varied monster behaviors, and merciful mechanics. Jump a rift, fight off monsters, and plunder their world.

Yes please!!
Awesome! Gonna show my kida right now...
Awesome Richard! Nice vibey track.
I started modular during covid times, and am around 250HP in. That Joranalogue gear you got is some of my favorite. Check out the local conventions, as they will visit with a full Joranalogue system. It's bliss to play on. :)
Last year we had a student create a game about 'what it feels like to be late for a bus and having to decide whether to sprint (and narrowly miss it) or giving up'
That resonated with me so hard. In public transport I'm either sitting waiting or sprinting like a madman with my huge backpack :)
I'm teaching a 2nd year university course on game concepting, and then @gamemakerstoolkit.com strikes again! Marvelous video Mark, I can cancel tomorrow's lecture and show your video instead :)
After 14 months of development, I am proud to share with you that my game is finally released on Steam! Go solve puzzles, have headache and enjoy the final product!
I do not ask often, but please share this!

Extremely low key and chill. Play around with all kinds of animals in a nice settings. We're not making a lot of progress, just swimming around mostly :)
Though it also pans out that I pick cozy games a lot these days. I enjoyed Naiad, Little Kitty Big City, or Short Hike so much, as I play them together with my kids. Saturday morning on the couch under a blanket is pure quality time :)
I am personally always interested in innovative game mechanics or playful systems. It's more compelling to me than a new compulsion loop or game narrative. So I pick my games mostly if they try new stuff in their core gameplay. Short loops = shorter play time.
I agree with your second point on playing "not quite good" games too. If it's not 'perfect' then it's easier to discuss what I would change, or how things could pan our differently. UFO50 is a great example for me, as it is a collection of really cool ideas, without being polished to death.
Yes good points. I think your first point of play time depends on the gameloops you're interested in researching. When you master a game you get a real good feel of the social mechanics and high level play, and how a game services a community for a long time. It's the long game loop in that case.
Play 1000 games for an hour, instead of 1 game 1000 hours...
Please @valvesoftware.com let us do more with our developer followings. Let us ask polls and have a little timeline.. let us share our develop snapshots.
Let those followers mean something and make that page meaningful.
Cool! Check out Moritz Klein YT channel. I breadboarded and built alongside those videos and learned a ton...
We are going to share a lot of news this year!
Be sure to wishlist us on Steam to catch every update. 🥳

We shouldn't have to worry about losing progress in videogames.
I've seen the UX issues of saving and quitting in many games, and I think as an industry we can do better.
