AFTERPLACE - A PLACE YOU'LL NEVER WANT TO LEAVE!

AfterPlace Developer: Evan Kice Publisher:  Evan Kice Released: July 23rd, 2024 Price: 14.99 USD Afterplace is a short 10 hour multi-ending calm and relaxing adventure centered on a floating island in the sky, filled with terrifying interdimensional beings and friends! It was certainly a journey as it's one of the few Indie games built by a single developer who truly wanted to create a fun and everlasting experience that encompasses the feeling of making you feel like you would want to stay in this universe forever, rather than to leave or continue forward to the end of the game. You don't want it to ever end or to cause harm in this simplistic world that feels more like a resting spot when you're done with all of your other games, after a hard days work, it'll be here for you waiting with a lot of dark secrets to be discovered around every nook and cranny.

THE APP ICON IS NOT ART - IT IS PSYCHOLOGY

Most indie devs try to make icons that “look cool.” I did the same for years, and it cost us thousands of downloads over time. The app icon has one purpose, and one purpose only: Trigger enough emotions so that the player clicks your listing. Here is a few things I learned about creating the perfect app icon: 1. Bright colors win Your App Icon competes with thousands of others, stronger colors will make your icon stick out. 2. Angry or Sad faces convert better than happy ones. This is something I actually learned from YouTube Thumbnail theory. In my old company we boosted visitors by 24% by JUST going from Happy -> Sad face. 3. Simplicity beats details The icon is so small so it is important that the icon isn't too cluttered. For Monkey King: Legend of Heroes, we first used a clean blue icon with our main character(see the image) Then we swapped it for a bright red icon with an angry Monkey King… Store listing visitors increased by 109% in one week. It is quite simple: your app icon is not a decoration. It is an emotional trigger that decides if someone will visit your store page or not.

WINDBLOWN REVIEW - IT WILL BLOW YOU AWAY!

I haven't had this much fun with an Online Multiplayer Roguelike; these days, games like this are generally only available in Local Co-op, making it difficult to make new friends or play with anybody other than close pals in real life or through your friends list. It's fantastic to see the Dead Cells creators working on something entertaining! Consider following on other Social Media platforms for, Giveaways and more:

Retro Future Racing | Android

Back to the retro-futurist.. 📖 Historical Notes: In the fifties and sixties of the twentieth century we thought about the future in a much more optimistic way than in our times due to the economic boom that involved both America and Europe and thus the union of the terms "retro" and " futurism" with the need to be able to easily identify a whole series of works characterized by futuristic (or "futuristic") visions chronologically moved backwards with a retro taste not to be confused with cyberpunk which has despotic settings compared to the utopian retro-futurist One of the greatest technological visionaries, representative of this current, was probably Norman Bel Geddes, with his work "Futurama" with technological highways, underground parking lots, floating airports, majestic skyscrapers and various means of magnetic levitation, etc sponsored by General Motors which had sought to show a vision of the world twenty years ahead (1960).

Silent Reverie | Android

It is a narrative-driven mobile experience developed by an emerging indie studio, designed to deliver a deep and emotionally immersive journey on Android and iOS devices. Blending psychological themes, exploration, and environmental puzzles, the game focuses more on storytelling and atmosphere than fast-paced action, offering players a reflective and meaningful adventure. 1) STORYLINE: The story follows a nameless protagonist who awakens in a mysterious world suspended between dream and reality. There are no immediate explanations or guidance—only silence, fragmented memories, and symbolic imagery scattered across haunting environments. As the narrative unfolds, players piece together the protagonist’s past through cryptic dialogues, environmental storytelling, and hidden clues. Each location represents a different emotional state: fear, regret, sorrow, and ultimately hope. Gradually, it becomes clear that the world itself is a manifestation of unresolved trauma, a mental landscape shaped by guilt and loss. The deeper you progress, the more personal and emotional the story becomes. Broken relationships, painful decisions, and a life-altering event are revealed layer by layer. The ending remains open to interpretation, yet it delivers a powerful emotional resolution that invites reflection long after the credits roll.

Rabbiman Adventures: Secret Room | Android

We will set off, in the shoes of a hero named Yasha, on a journey to a world equipped with time portals that will allow him to access secret places that, with the help of his friends, he will have to try to save the Great Forest from drought. It will not be easy to bring it back to life because the forest is full of aggressive creatures! Our hero, gradually will walk into the forest, will soon learn to fly with a talit and defeat the creatures by throwing, like a boomerang, with his magic hat. Each time we free a portal we will unlock new levels to win valuable prizes: New magic hats that we can customize. In addition, we can go to the library and understand what type of use that hat can have. It is accompanied by melodies full of catchy motifs that are never obvious. Here the mechanics evolve, the world expands and with each level we learn more about this mysterious place. The story evolves with us and the next level brings new challenges. There is no single path here, only our will will lead us to continue or stop.  How far are you willing to go to discover all the secrets?

4 years accomplishment, please help us with feedback!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3990570/The_Melty_Way/ Hello everyone! We’re two friends who always dreamed of making our own game. Today we can finally say mission accomplished, we get to share a first look at it with you. The demo for The Melty Way is now live and if you enjoy tight platformers with personality, we think you’ll have a blast playing The Melty Way. Our game looks cute, but don't be fooled, it definitely knows how to challenge both your reflexes and your big beautiful brain. The whole game revolves around size management. Your slime melts and shrinks whenever you move, jump or dash, but be careful because your size literally represents your health. Melt too much and you go SPLOOOOSHH bye bye. To grow bigger, you need food scattered around the levels, but it is limited, so you're going to have to do a diet because you can’t just snack on everything. The more you eat, the bigger you get. Big slime has more health and can activate heavy switches, but moves like someone after a leg day. Medium keeps things perfectly balanced as all things should be. Small is fast, snappy and perfect for precise platforming, but one mistake and you'll become a decorative puddle. Each size changes how you deal with puzzles, traps and movement, so deciding when to melt or when to eat becomes a crucial part of the strategy. We have a lot of handcrafted levels scattered across different environments. Each area brings its own special mechanics, surprises and new dangerous traps. Some levels lean into puzzles. Some push your speed and timing. Some mix everything together just to keep things interesting. And a few levels are us thinking outside the box to give you more unpredictable and diversified experiences. There’s also a small story woven through the game. It’s nothing overly complex, but you’ll meet a few warm characters during this somewhat lonely journey, each adding a bit of charm, guidance or humor along the way. A few parts of the world and its mysteries are left open to interpretation too, so you can read into things however you want as you explore. The game also features our own original music. Some tracks are chill, some are more energetic, depending on the environment and what the level is asking from you. We tried to shape every piece so it reflects the emotion and vibe we feel in those moments. Enjoy the soundtrack and let it carry you through the world as you play. The demo gives you a small taste of all that. It’s not too hardcore, just enough to give you a good feel of what the game is going to offer later. Try it out, play around with the movement and see how well you manage your size with the limited resources each level gives you. The full game release is planned for March 2026. Most of the content is already finished and we’re polishing everything until then to make the whole experience as smooth, fun and satisfying as possible. If you enjoy the demo, wishlisting helps us more than you might think. And if you want to show the game to a friend, we won’t complain. Thanks for being awesome. Have fun!

AFTERPLACE - SOLO INDIE DEVS ARE SO DAMN TALENTED!

YOU'RE MISSING OUT ON THESE HIDDEN GEMS!

If you love bullet-hell, great storytelling, and, of course, above all else, games that are free and very fun to play, than Wolfrush is a game you need to check out now! If you enjoy story-rich games with a diverse cast of vibrantly colored characters, Mondealy on the other hand is one of my all-time favorites. It was a casual game with no fighting, just a lot of walking and running around hugging cute boys, meeting people, and assisting them with their problems, as well as all the references, memes, and characters to other games and TV shows. There is so much to love about this, that isn't being appreciated.

Crhunchyroll: Pepper Grinder | Android

It's a fast-paced action-platformer developed by Ahr Ech and published by Devolver Digital. It's a high-speed 2D action-platformer where the centerpiece of the experience is... a "Grinder" drill—and it's not just a weapon, but a true multi-purpose tool! The protagonist is Pepper, a young and determined treasure hunter who is shipwrecked on a mysterious island after losing all her loot. On the island, a band of bizarre enemies called Narlings steals what remains, including her precious mechanical drill called the "Grinder." Determined to get back what's hers, Pepper manages to recover the Grinder and begins her adventure through increasingly varied and dangerous environments. From sandy beaches to underground caves, industrial structures, and surreal landscapes, Pepper faces hordes of enemies and gigantic bosses, each with unique mechanics. The narrative is simple but effective: there are no long dialogues, but rather a story told through fluid animations and dynamic cutscenes.  Pepper's journey is a constant race for revenge, in a colorful yet hostile world, where each level represents a new step towards the final showdown. The drill allows Pepper to dig into the ground and "swim" underground, launch himself into the air at high speed, attach himself to mechanisms and activate platforms, and create incredibly fluid movement combos. The control system is surprisingly responsive, especially on high-performance devices. The gameplay is based on rhythm and precision: the more you master the drill, the more spectacular the experience becomes. The enemies are varied and well-characterized. Some require timing, others strategy. The boss fights are one of the game's highlights: dynamic, intense, and often divided into multiple phases, the levels are full of secrets, alternative routes, and collectibles. In short, it encourages replayability thanks to timed challenges, hidden object collection, and routes optimized for speedrunning. Its detailed pixel art style and fluid animations make the title visually captivating. The music is energetic and perfectly complements the frenetic action.  It's not a casual game: it requires precision, reflexes, and a little practice, but it's incredibly rewarding.

PSYCHOPOMP GOLD — IT ISN'T A SEQUEL SADLY

If you love it, support it. I didn't like it very much cause I was expecting something that wasn't just a slightly remastered version of the original. I'll still support the dev, I still like what the original had to offer and the rest of the content that was added in is sure to appeal to the die hard fans, but this wasn't for me and I don't think it would be for most people, who want more than the free version offers.
PSYCHOPOMP GOLD — IT ISN'T A SEQUEL SADLY

A hidden gem for sure. Worth every penny.

I’m really into indie games these days. How did I miss out on this before? Nice story, very fun gameplay and also quite funny with good characters.

Dungeon Munchies
A Hidden Gem That Deserved More Attention Downstairs is one of those rare games that quietly hides far more depth than it initially shows. At first glance it may look like a simple indie roguelike, but the longer you play, the more you realize how many systems, secrets, and emergent mechanics are layered underneath. What makes this game special is how items and weapons interact in unexpected ways.
