Hey folks, just thought i’d share this project im working on! Super early development but this is Pharmystery, a narrtive crime adventure game, Set in the crime filled Los Angeles of the 90’s, We follow Freddie Falcone, a former mob enforcer who vowed to leave his criminal past behind. But when his father, Benito Falcone, calls for help, Freddie finds himself pulled back into the dangerous world he tried to escape. Now, in a gripping cross-country chase, Freddie must race against time to save his family from the shadows of his own past.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this genre/concept

Would you say that there is a place for traditional PVP Shooters in the indie market, or are AAA high budget titles sucking up too many casual players for that?

Made a video of my game, SpecFreq
SpecFreq is a top-down multiplayer shooter without many players, so it’s just me vs the bots right now. They’re not perfect, but it’s still fun to fight against them. Game mode is currently Capture The Flag, but in this video I was just messing with the bots.
I have a free demo up on Steam. The demo is pretty much the full game, just with a smaller focused map so I can keep refining the game features. The full game has a map that’s about 8x as big. I’m also working on a map editor so people can make their own zones. Game is made in Godot 3.5.

increase your points and dodge harzadous objects .

Hello guys! Check out the new feature in my game Coin-Op Vice: valuable items that can only be collected in the special Neo-N mode. It's like being in the matrix. You gather everything there, and when you return to normal mode, the collected items are awarded to you.
