Sorcery Showdown, a 1v1 reflex tapping wizard duels with a little roguelike aspect
Playable Link: https://groups.google.com/g/sorcery-showdown-closed-alpha-1 (You'll need to join this Google Group in order to then have access to the game on Play Store through the link in the group's discussions).
Closed Alpha trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yky99iTw8uo
Sorcery Showdown is a 1v1 online PvP wizard dueling game that challenges players to react quickly. When the "FIRE!" signal appears along with a snapping sound, it’s a race to tap faster than your opponent! Simple, right? But to add a strategic twist, I’ve incorporated roguelike elements: after each round, players choose from a pool of power-ups that can impact their own gameplay or hinder their opponent's. Don’t like the choices? Use gold to reroll for better options. The first player to drop to zero health loses the match.
Worth noting that the game is only multiplayer at the moment since i'm currently working on the single player aspect.

Automatic Messiah has an early demo! (post-apocalyptic turn-based RPG)
Game title: Automatic Messiah
Playable link: https://woootbm.itch.io/automatic-messiah
Platform: PC (Windows download)
Free to play status: Demo
Involvement: Solo dev
Hey all! The latest update features a lot of polish, QoL, and work bringing it closer to the final version. This is a great time to check it out if you want to get feedback in during a time when the game is in a malleable state.
Try it today! Any and all feedback is welcome, even if it's just a rating on Itch. Thanks for checking my game out!
Please note: this game features AI art in a few places (including the key art), this is all placeholder and will be replaced during polish stages.
It is simply being used as a tool to help this early build feel more public-facing than it otherwise would be.
Description:
Content warning: features profanity, violence, and sometimes touches dark themes (fascism, sadism, slavery, etc.) due to post-apocalyptic setting.
You are an ambassador from a distant solar system. Your mission is to establish diplomatic relations with a primitive planet called "Earth." After your hundred-year journey you arrive to find that the world has been destroyed.
Now you must explore this wasteland and try to finish the job... one way or the other.
Features:
- Strategic turn-based combat with different player builds.
- Fight using either lethal, non-lethal, or diplomatic methods and change how the world perceives your character as well as unlocking different skills based on your path.
- The benefits of both party-based and single member RPG's as you are a single synthezoid but have turns for your built-in computer and onboard fabricator.
- A large, interconnected map with non-linear exploration (current available content not reflective of this).
- 3 difficulty settings to allow the player to choose their experience.
- An objective system that both guides the player on the main path and provides side quest distractions.
- Generous auto-save that prevents progress loss but also protects against save-scumming to encourage players to live by their choices

RalphGame: an action RPG with pixelated humor
Playable Link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2008670/RalphGame/
Platform: Windows
Description: RalphGame is an action-adventure RPG where you play as Ralph, a sailor who has to save his friends, stop an evil organization, and have fun doin' it. In the wake of adventures like Uncharted 4, Indiana Jones, and Metal Gear Solid V, this 2D side scroller mixes combat, stealth, and humor into an unforgettable adventure. The demo is available on Steam, which I'm worried is too hard for new players, and would like some feedback specifically on the difficulty of the demo. Please feel free to be critical and tell me exactly what you don't like, especially for a demo

We humbly invite you to join the playtests for our upcoming base builder - The Whims of the Gods!
Game Title: The Whims of the God
Playable link: https://discord.com/invite/Dv2azj5zFs (need to apply through our server)
Platform: PC, Steam
Description:
At its core, The Whims of the Gods is a city management game with a co-op option whose themes and aesthetics are significantly influenced by a blend of Mesoamerican (and other) cultures — particularly Mayan and Aztec — but also brimming with fantastical, non-historical elements of our own design. That is to say, the game has quite a bit of mythological and fantastical flair to it that takes it out of the realm of realism, but more importantly — makes the setting fun and whimsical!

Eldercraft: Mountaineers [ Exploration, Survival] (Also provided some feedback to some other games)
Game Title: Eldercraft: Mountaineers
Playable Link: https://derivativesynergistics.itch.io/eldercraft-mountaineers-demo
Trailer(WIP): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4nA1LRq72E
Wishlist Link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2963640/Eldercraft_Mountaineers/
Platform: Windows
Description:
Heya all. The idea of this game is that you must climb a fantasy mountain.
Survival on the ground is easy but once you get up on the mountain a well supplied backpack or a stocked outpost nearby is a must. Storms are ready to chill you to the bone and starvation constantly clawing at your stomach.
Failures and missing supplies cascade and with a rucksack full of loot poor planning will see it all go to waste.
The actual low down:
I've been working solo on this for about a year now and I'm at the point where I want external people to play it, break it and give me feedback before I join a Next Fest.
Mainly I'm looking for feedback on the core loop of the game, if it's fun to play. I'm also looking for feedback on bugs. With that said any feedback is good feedback. "Even if you're just yelling at me that you've stubbed your toe while playing my game and it's all my fault."
Feedback I've given:
In the spirit of give and take I've provided feedback on two other games. It'd be cool if any gamedevs reading this are a little encouraged to pay it forward and review two other games when posting theirs.
I just sorted the sub by new and played the first two.

Hi!
My first project is nearing it's release date, been working for 1.5 years. It's a ball rolling puzzle-platformer, inspired by my childhood classic - Ballance.
Tried to recreate the zen-like atmosphere but also add something new mechanics-wise :)
Any feedback is welcome, here, on Steam or within the in-game feedback form!

Looking for feedback on the demo for SIDE ALLEY, a horror point-and-click/visual novel on Steam for PC
Playable link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3085660/Side_Alley/
Hi! I'm kind of desperately looking for feedback on a game in the rather narrow genre of "horror first person 2D point-and-click visual novel". The demo is greatly improved compared to the one appearing on the recent Steam Next Fest. The game is very story-oriented.
Is it interesting? Creepy? Atmospheric?
We are a very small team and I've written the story. I would greatly appreciate any feedback or comments!
