The Shadow of Shadows
I made a little game for Mystery Game Jam 2024 and I need some feedback on what to improve if anyone is willing to give it a shot! :)
You are Lilith, a young shadow that wants to become a light. You decide to go to the Sun Palace to ask the Sun Queen how light is made.
As you enter the Palace you find some little creatures named Photons, They are really playful and like to fly around as fast as they can. You play with them a little before proceeding to the Throne Room. There, the Sun Queen tells you that light uses Protons as carriers but their final fate is either to be killed by some object they hit or be consumed by the Iris King. Lilith cannot believe such a cruel fate awaits these happy creatures. Will you help her find a solution?

New Word Game - 3Fall Puzzle
The word game 3Fall Puzzle (3FallPuzzle.com) is the brainchild of Anne Stone, a 75-year-old puzzle maker who's been in the business for over 40 years. Ann's goal for the game is to be "a fun, free escape." 3Fall has been described as a cross between NYT Connections and Wordle. It's a game that makes you think, and it's encouraged to use hints if you need them.
It's been a pleasure to get to know Ann as we've worked together in the post-production process. Her longevity and dedication to the craft are inspiring, especially to a newbie puzzle maker like me. We released the game yesterday after two months of beta testing, and it would be welcome and constructive to get feedback and thoughts from this board. Thank you for this great community!

After 5 years of development, ColorBlend FX: Desaturation is set to release soon. There's a demo and a limited closed beta.
Hello gamers, I'm PeterSvP, avid gamer and game designer. In the last 5 years I have been working on my first serious game, a 2.5D puzzle platformer metroidvania.
ColorBlend FX: Desaturation features a deep post-humanity story represented in a more child-friendly way. The world somehow suffered an apocalypse, and the new intelligent habitants of the planet are now curious potato gnomes, The Splatians. And one evening the evil villain, Lord Ashen, decide to consume everything colorful from the world.
Gameplay wise, think like Super Mario meets Portal (without the portals) in a non-linear place that lacks colors, then imbues some Limbo, Inside and Spelunky vibes. You explore, solve puzzles, squish juicy slimes, get yourself colored, activate security devices that react to your color, overcome challenging parkour obstacles, deal with electricity & lasers, drive trains and minecarts and hopefully don't rage on the bosses.
There is a free demo available on STEAM: ColorBlend FX: Desaturation Prologue on Steam
I encourage you to play it and stream/record/spread the word about this if you like it.
And there's a CLOSED BETA running, it happens in our discord that is linked in the Steam Store.
The full game will release on 19 April 2024.

Prado Circle: A Daily RPG for Healthy Living
TL;DR: Level up your character, defeat monsters, and collect loot while building healthy habits!
Hey everyone,
I'm excited to share with you all some updates for Prado Circle: Slow RPG. It's a mobile RPG that encourages players to get outside and develop healthy habits.
Short Recap:
- Choose your Class: Pick from three distinct jobs - Magician, Thief, or Warrior - each with its own unique skills and play-styles.
- Dungeon Crawling & Loot: Dive into 12 different fantasy dungeons with dozens of monsters, and take home bigger and better rewards!
- Progress and Grow: Your character's growth is linked to your real-world activities. The healthier you are, the stronger your character becomes!
We've made a bunch of improvements since last time:
Introducing VITA:
Vita is a new in-game currency used to power new activities like Foraging and Hunting. You earn VITA by simply completing daily quests. (Note: VITA cannot be purchased with real money.)
Foraging and Cooking:
Spend your VITA to start a Foraging activity and go for a walk outside.
The further you walk, the more herbs, berries, and mushrooms your character will gather.
Turn your foraged goods into delicious meals and snacks that restore mana or hp in your dungeon runs.
Welcome to the Shop:
Check out our new shop where you can buy and sell crafting materials and unload those unused items from your dungeon runs.
(Note: Again, NO real money transactions are supported.)
UI Refresh:
We've squashed a bunch of bugs and made a slew of quality-of-life improvements to the UI to make your gaming experience smoother with fewer clicks necessary to complete daily goals.
Some screens of the new foraging & cooking mechanics
Availability:
Prado Circle: Slow RPG is currently available on the iOS App Store: Download here
For Android users, the game is not yet released on the Google Play Store, but you can PM me for a closed beta invite.
Feedback is greatly appreciated, as always!

The Legend of Athea Feedback Update
I got a lot of good feedback from here on Reddit so I just wanted to post an update with the additions/fixes. Thank you for the help!
The Legend of Athea v1.0.2 Update:
-Pause menu added.
-Easy mode added.
-Now able to replay the tutorial.
-Building reference page added.
-Minor fixes.
The Legend of Athea is a mix between a breakout-style game and a strategy game. There is also some hands on action mixed in to keep the player always engaged. The main gameplay is that there is a battle between your army and the enemy army. Throughout the battle a fireball is flying around the battlefield, hurting everything in it's path. You must use your magic shield to reflect it or it will destroy the defences you have built up.
If you enjoy the game, comments or reviews on the game page are very helpful! Download link: https://pig-hippo-games.itch.io/the-legend-of-athea

"Kiosk" - My Post-Soviet Balkan Kiosk shop simulator
Hi everyone, let me share my 2D Unity project. :)
I'm developing 'KIOSK,' a game set in a post-Soviet Balkan. It's all about the challenge and of managing a small kiosk, with a good dose of strategy while working against ridiculous government decisions, corruption, crime, black market etc.
I'm at a stage where I am really have to make decisions that will affect the final game and your feedback could really make a difference. Any idea or thoughts on the story or events you'd love to see?
If you're into simulation and strategy games, especially with a narrative twist similar to Papers Please, I think 'KIOSK' can resonate with you. I'd truly appreciate it if you could share your ideas or join my Discord (https://discord.gg/SWkTSRTN) - it's a bit of a ghost town at the moment so don't be surprised :D
I will do a twitch stream doing the art for the game tomorrow (08. April) from 21:00 GMT+1 - I am also very new to twitch streaming so don't get hard on me please https://www.twitch.tv/blindflsh
Thanks for reading, and I hope to hear from you.
I'm looking forward to hear every tip and idea and possibly chatting with you soon!

Wanted to make a story game about a killer duck, but decided to make a survival game first. What type of story games appeal to you?
Google play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.MykhailoBabii.HyperDucksSurvival
This is a top down shooter. Endless enemies, random map. For kills you get xp and improve the duck. Everything is simple. But after death, life is not restored)))) But there is a timer in the menu that does this gradually. You can even start the game with 1 HP!

Making EXCEL based games
Now this is slightly different to the rest of the posts here.
One thing I haven't seen a lot of are games made using Excel - obviously there are graphical limitations, the coding can be a bit clunky, but I have been having a whole bunch of fun making them (mix of formala and VBA).
Would love feedback on some of the games I have made (note I am using Youtube as a means to showcase them to a wider audience)
- DnD style/ Baldur's Gate style game : https://youtu.be/jhsi9EnbzkY?si=gkP-ZmIRhbEeM2q5
- Adventure game in style of Oregan Trail : https://youtu.be/sdi73Pr7-jI?si=bmkLYTWX18I94VMd
- Pokemon battle style game : https://youtu.be/L0Jbef84p00?si=Ivbu7BW1Jzd9K9Mv
- Wordle in Excel : https://youtu.be/5Ier4ttf-5M?si=Iiiodzrbt-5fKVx3
Warning I am not an excel expert - but really enjoying using my skills doing something slightly different. Please have a play and provide feedback/ thoughts.

Gravity Grid - Chess with gravity - A casual puzzle game
Hello everyone!
I have come across a game named Chessformer not long ago and I loved the idea. There the chessboard has gravity and the aim is to capture the black king with the pieces you are given. I felt like it was a great premise for a puzzle game, even though the current execution did not explore the idea enough.
So I added my own twist to expand on that idea. In Gravity Grid, black pieces will capture you (and chain it) if a white piece is in line-of-sight. That alone creates so much unique challenges throughout. Later levels introduce different blocks and a new piece, adding to the difficulty. This is my first complete game really, so I would love to have some community feedback on it :)
Some other relevant remarks:
- The game is completely free with no ads!
- You don't need an account to play! Registering will save your progress though.
- Currently 65 levels, but I am working on a level builder where people can share levels!
- It's a browser game, so both mobile and desktop devices are welcome!
- There is a leaderboard. The less moves you take to finish a level, the higher you rank!
- The game updates twice per week for now.
- If you have any questions, suggestions or bug reports, you can contact me via comments or messages.
If you'd like the challenge, hop to https://chess.berkefiliz.com and see if you can beat the current leaderboard players. Good luck!
And thanks a lot to you for checking the game out in advance :)
