The Monster Breeder - developer_themonsterbreeder

Hi All,

This small update adds five more quests to the mid-late game. You will get generic quests if you miss the three early druid quests. With this change, you won't miss the opportunity of getting more exclusive goods at the druid's fair. The other four new quests provide new species or subspecies:

Sapphire Beetle has a new ability called Flawless Attack. This type of attack is always successful. Only the Flawless Defense ability neutralizes it.

Cave Arachnid Queen has the Fire Breath ability. I am trying to add better traits to the new insectoid monsters making them more valuable because insectoids are the less popular class according to the Steam Achievements stats.

Giant Bear and Greater Northern Lizard are the bigger and stronger subspecies created by the druids.

Bug fixes:

Missing food supplement slots at the Hatchlings window when the creature's growing-up time is higher than 15. Hatching and growing-up time is now maximized at 15 turns.
Tooltips show incorrect values for the Greater Energy Steal at the Skill Upgrade panel.
The monster upkeep cost is not recalculated after implanting the Segmented bowel.

I am also working on the new creature models for the full release. I hope I will be able to show some of them in the next couple of weeks.

Raiding Zone in the Third Dimension

Raiding.Zone - klg71

I gathered a lot of critics and advice for my game. I concluded that I could not market my game as a 2D-TopDown game. It’s not appealing enough to gather any audience.
So this is my first teaser for the 3D-Version.

The level in the video is the only playable right now. It has all features that are present on other levels. The server calculates the map in 2D, but all textures and effects are now in 3D.

My plan for the oncoming weeks is pretty simple. I will create a bunch of voxel models and rework the remaining 2D-Effects.

After finishing, I will release the new 3D version. In the meantime, you can still play the 2D variant.

I use MagicaVoxel for creating my voxel art. The tool is pretty simple and effective.

To import it into Unity, I used the MagicaVoxel-Toolbox.

The toolbox is cheap for the number of things you can do with it.

I also omitted the Lobby-Level. The default screens now show your equipment.

I’m still searching for motivated people to develop the game with me. Particularly I’m interested in people with experience in voxel graphics or particle effects. I would be more than glad to share my profits with anyone who can contribute.

New Anti-Cheat, Improved Game Controller Support and Bunch of QoL

Industry Idle - FishPond

0.20.3-build.327
- New anti-cheat mechanism: previously repeated trades with cheating account will result in an anti-cheat ban. This process involves a lot of investigation and takes a lot of effort. Now this will result in a trade suspension - you can resume trading after returning all the profits made from trades with the cheating account. This can be resolved automatically in Player Trade UI (@FishPond)
- Add a page showing past player trades (by @FishPond)
- QoL: New settings menu (by @GrayTheWanderer)
- QoL: New batch mode action: Downgrade - All/Cluster/Adjacent (by @GrayTheWanderer)
- Add Turkish translation (by @Readrift)
- Improve Steam Deck support (@FishPond)
- QoL: Add support for game controllers: use left joystick to move camera, right joystick to move cursor, trigger buttons to zoom/scroll, right shoulder button and X button to click. Joystick sensitivity can be adjusted in settings
- QoL: Add support for camera edge pan (@FishPond) - Activate in Settings -> Input
- Add support for moderator to remove suspicious player trades. Resources will be refunded for removed trades (@FishPond)
- Improve stability of Steam Cloud integration (@FishPond)

Shopping Center Tycoon : Will Be Released On February 27th!

Shopping Center Tycoon - TheCurseOfBeast

Greetings,

My game Shopping Center Tycoon will be released on February 27th, it's a very exciting wait for me and I wanted to share this excitement with you.

It's been a really long development journey for me. Part of this adventure is now complete. Although I think my game has enough content now, I plan to add new content.

Let me tell you about the newly added content :

* I added three new maps.
* I added a new path-finding algorithm so there is a chance for more product sales.
* I added new customer face effects.
* I added new NPCs and effects.

I solved the bugs and extra overlooked bugs in the demo. To mention briefly :

* I fixed the bug where the carpets go out of the map in window mode and close the game.

* I fixed the game closing bug that occurs in product refill.

* Fixed some visual bugs when switching to a new game after a saved game.

I hope you enjoy my game, if you want to contact me please feel free to open a topic in the "Community Hub". I have also added the e-mail address below where you can reach me for your ideas.

E-mail :

If you are interested in my game, please don't forget to add it to your wishlist (Thanks <3)

谜题姐妹 Puzzle Sisters - 冷笑黑妖

谜题姐妹之前完成度我不满意，现在我正在用RM推翻重做。
重制版的抢先体验版已在谜题姐妹原版上覆盖更新。
玩法还是简单的答题而已，也没想往复杂了做，我打算抽出20个小时（项目投入时间）做完。所以大家不用有太高的期待，还是主打个轻松加愉快。
只要答对题目就可以获得成就，谜题姐妹的成就可以和寇莎梅特组合使用，风格一致。
想添字的朋友可以在任意地方留言，我都会去翻看。
目前整体完成度大概30%，仅实现了基础功能，首发只有20道题，正式版打算加到200题以上。
最近可能会有比较频繁的更新，BUG也很多，着急尝鲜的朋友可以进游戏看看，不着急的朋友还请等游戏转正式版后再买再玩。
