Dark Roll 2 - boss fight gameplay! Honest opinion? uwu

So as some of you probably know already, I’ve been cooking up this soulslike-inspired marble abomination.

After way too many hours of suffering (mine, not yours… yet), I finally finished the first boss fight. Here’s some gameplay.

Is it balanced? Probably not.
Is it fair? Also no.
Will it emotionally damage you? God, I hope so.

I’m looking for feedback! Toast it, break it, tell me what feels like complete garbage and what doesn’t. If this thing’s gonna ruin people’s evenings, I want it to do it properly.

If you’re curious (or just have poor life choices), more here:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4417060/Dark_Roll_2/

Wishlists help the game not get buried alive by the Steam algorithm, so yeah - appreciated if you’re into this kind of nonsense. And it's gonna be cheap, I promise.

Ps. First Dark Roll is out an about, available for free on Steam, though it's been released 7 years ago, and it's been the first game I released, so approach it cautiously.

Northgale | Folklore platformer now playtesting!

Hi, I am the creator of Northgale and I recently went live on Itch with a early playtest version.

Itch : https://myte-interactive.itch.io/northgale

Steam : https://store.steampowered.com/app/4056820/Northgale/

Playtest is currently only available on Itch, but will soon also be playable on steam. I am really interested in hearing what people think about the game, so if you choose to actually play it or ney I would greatly appreciate your thoughts !

The game is a 3D adventure platformer game where you use the powers of the Northwind through your kite on a mission to restore its powers which has been spread all across the kingdom.

Thanks in advance to anyone who just have a look or give it a go <3

Somehow ended up speedrunning this random climbing game in 26 minutes

Picked this up recently and didn’t think much of it at first, but it turned into one of those “just one more try” games.

After a lot of falling and restarting I ended up doing a full run in about 26 minutes, which I honestly didn’t expect to be possible when I started.

Here’s the run:

Curious if anyone else has played it and how far you got I feel like most people would quit way earlier, i think im the first one to speedrun it

When everything is lost, only One Last Knight remains — my first game is now live!!

They captured every knight.

One knight managed to escape their clutches and is now on a quest to free the others. They probably regret…

Letting the One Last Knight get away.

Fevercide vs. Crimson Desert: how indie-devs and AAA devs solve the same problems

u/RBlackSpade — 7 days ago

We're looking for playtesters for our precision platformer!

We're working on a physics based, challenging 3D platformer, where you'll be a depressed chain-smoking bunny on a pogo stick, trying to fetch a drink for your wife. The mechanics and level design of the game give lots of room for skill expression, skips and exploiting the levels. Perfect fit for speedrunning too. The setting is a bit wonky cartoony world.

We're setting up a group of testers interested in the genre for the whole production (the launch is set for early 2027). During this time we'll be sharing builds, mainly looking for feedback on level design. The aim is to make the game approachable for a broader audience, while having enough options to speedrun and express tight controls.

Everything is non-binding, but we'll be awarding dedicated testers with a Steam key for the release, your name in the credits (if you wish) and an opportunity to affect how the game evolves.

If you are interested in joining, please send an email to coniferdigital@gmail.com and let's make it happen!

The video reference is from our alpha state, and while the skill expressed there might look daunting, the only thing we're looking from our testers is genuine interest towards the genre! :)
