Updated my Steam demo for Mancalero! My strategic marble-builder roguelike inspired by Mancala:

🎲 Unlock and sow special marbles with roguelike progression
🧠 Build synergies and win with strategy
🎮 Best bosses that alter the rules

#gamedev #indiedev #roguelike #screenshotsaturday
Also, we officially reached over 130 wishlists for Mancalero! 🥳

Thankful to get my first 100 over time before my demo launch and entrance into the personal calendar- but this is unreal considering the early days of barely getting to 25!

It’s #trailertuesday!

Really encouraged as I share this trailer for Mancalero (improvements upon my old one) which recently was professional reviewed and rated as a 8.67/10!

It looks like Steam continues to improve visibility for #indiedevs and #gamedevs continually- whether with public announcements or shadow updates.

I find this interesting video in my daily dev searches /briefings! Thoughts?

Sorry for the delay, the Mancalero demo is live with some various fixes and changes!

I may push another minor patch later today as well. Otherwise, I’m gearing up more for the full game and NextFest!

The demo is still being updated with changes/fixes to localization (especially for the tutorial and how to play section), as well as consistency with the store page.

Sorry about that, but thanks for the feedback!

Early post for #WishlistWednesday but also an important milestone for Mancalero- thank you all for 100 Wishlists!!

Just a month ago I was sitting at 50, and prior to that it was hard to pass 20...

Applying some more changes to Mancalero bit by bit
* altered and consistent scoring bar
* curved pits for sleek look and to better resemble Mancala
* flavour text of enemy removed for space (click on the enemy to read instead)

Fixed a few glitches on this gif too.

Trying a new thing- indie devs share three devs / indie games in development that you’re excited for, big or small! 🎮

For me it’ll be @ozashborne.bsky.social, @perridot.bsky.social and @mioramagames.bsky.social

Working on The Ashen Oz, Oh!Ware and Particle Collectotron!

You can take Mancalero away from me on vacation but not Mancala! Here’s my win at the beach!

It is so nice being on vacation but I miss working on games quite a bit- sometimes it can be consuming like a black hole. Do devs relate? Is that a good or bad sign? 🤣
