"Adorable Hand-Drawn"?!?! Could that be Key Fairy??? The world's only Key-type game!

I guess you'll just have to find out.... store.steampowered.com/app/2878580/...

If you somehow have the energy to be doing PAX today, please say hi to our wonderful friends @busalonium.bsky.social, @abandonedsheep.com, & @bendroste.bsky.social if you see them at their booths, and maybe check out their games โ€” I hear they sound pretty good

Hahaha perfect ๐Ÿ˜‚

Great choice of music too as my ultimate fashion goal is to look like a jojo character

Ah, I suppose I'm not quite social media savvy enough to have thought of that ๐Ÿ˜…you'll just have to image flight of the Valkyries playing

I love going to Melbourne for the MIGW (Melbourne internttional games week) and getting a few extra days of wearing winter clothes

It's a nice break from the Brisbane heat

Looking forward to PAX and GCAP!

It's the art steam uses to represent a game

Decided to update my capsule and would love any feedback

Do you think the blue background is an improvement?

Or do they both stink and I should just hire a capsule artist? ๐Ÿ˜…

I updated my level transition effect
Now with 100% more 90's vibes

L8R SK8R temporary tattoos came today!

23.09.2025 02:45 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 6    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Thanks for the feedback!

That's a fair call

I am trying to lean into that over the top 90's aesthetic, but perhaps I've gone overboard a little

08.09.2025 08:33 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah, I have no idea how it's going to look IRL

I just have to cross my fingers and hope it translates well ๐Ÿคท

Thanks for the feedback!

I've decided to stick to just selling temporary tattoos at PAX (maybe some fridge magnets too?)

What do people think of these designs? Which ones are the best? The worst? Would appreciate any thoughts โ˜บ๏ธ

Was getting ready to go buy some groceries. Didn't realise what I'd done until I saw myself in the mirror. I'm going to have to change...

08.09.2025 04:13 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 14    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 4    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Well, they look neat!

I feel like I would have got one if you had them at your booth and I definitely didn't

Good haul
But most of that was free wasn't it? ๐Ÿค”

03.09.2025 07:28 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah, I'm leaning away from pins, or at least only doing a small batch

I don't think I've seen anyone do tattoos before, so hopefully I'm the only one๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘‰

Yep, a few people ruin it for the rest of us I guess ๐Ÿฅฒ

Apparently people were putting stickers on places at the convention hall and then PAX had to pay to get them all removed๐Ÿ˜”

03.09.2025 03:21 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Interesting! Thanks for the advice! Pins do seem like the best option

Unfortunately stickers are banned at PAX Aus this year

I can see how that game does well with merch, probably having a cute dog character really helps ๐Ÿ˜„

Are there any indie devs here who have sold merch at PAX?

What kind of merch did you find sold well? How much did you sell?

Or just in general, what was your experience selling merch?

Would really appreciate any thoughts on the matter, as I'm kind of lost deciding what to sell, what prices, etc

03.09.2025 01:21 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 5    ๐Ÿ” 2    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 4    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I'm messing around with making it more of a pin appropriate design by giving it a background
