Redd was an orphan adopted by a master sorceress when she was just a baby. She has learned a few spells specialized in offensive tactics, to protect other people from supernatural menaces. She believes that life, as is, is chaotic enough, and is willing to help others in need against the creatures of the Underworld. After joining the Legion of Sorcerers in her adulthood and starting her training, tragedy struck her life when an unknown attacker killed her mother. With a scar as a reminder of the event, Redd suffered a deep trauma, which left her confused and depressed, pushing away her best friends and teammates.
When Brock City is under invasion, she will use everything she learned to fight along the Legion and defend the innocent, learning new spells in her way to stop this nightmare. But this event may put her abilities and strength at test until its last consequences: moreso, her true believings.
Join Redd’s journey to stop this supernatural invasion and the mind behind this nightmare.

Rocket Cave Adventure
Brand new adventures
Explore procedurally generated levels every time you start a run! With each area bigger and stranger than the last, you’ll have to pay attention to your surroundings to survive!

Randomized skill tree
Throughout each run, you will be given a skill tree that will be populated with different skills each time you play! However, you won’t know the skills you are given until you unlock them by collecting enough XP from enemies- so don’t rush too fast through the levels.
Meta progression
Gather gold throughout your runs and spend it on long-term upgrades back at the starting hub. Upgrade your starting health or increase the size of the skill tree for your runs!

CreatorCrate
This game has incredible movement with a super fun momentum based physics system and I absolutely love it. It has been incredibly satisfying to improve at this game and experiment with all the various items and techniques as well as game modes. The base game is not overly difficult so it’s fairly easy to get in to and there are quite a few compelling alternate game modes.
I give this game a huge recommend and I believe it deserves way more attention than what it has gotten. If you are into movement games, roguelites or platformers of any kind creatorcrate highly worth checking out.

DollKart
Do you like a challenge? A race game? What about a race against time? Well when you buy this game I assure you that you will inevitably fall or harm the driver; but with great sacrifice comes… (add inspiring stuff here). Back to the point: It’s a challenging game but enjoyable nevertheless. The new update added new “karts” to play around with also bug fixes! Hurrah!
I also really like the aspect of having millions of tracks to try; a new game always has a fresh taste.
So overall its a fun game, reccomended.

Serious Scramblers
After almost 20 hours of playing this game, I find it in 3 words to describe it.
Marvellous, Exciting, Enjoyable.
Oh, you read that right. Those 3 words summed it up.
[GRAPHIC]
Okay, thing is, this game is really enjoyable. But how it is enjoyable? First the retro vibe and simple graphics are already mesmerizing. I mean, in this age now, how many of us can still enjoy some good old-school style game. This one does, so it’s great!
- CHECKED!
[MUSIC]
Music wise, absolutely catchy and melodic. Sure, it’s a bit repetitive but old-school games are like that. Plus, it’s not some dull and boring musics but rather, it fits the gameplay very well. Personally, I like it. And importantly, it brings me back to my younger days when I was playing those NES games. So yeah, it’s cool, good and memorable.

first impressions (updated with new info):
-
great pixel art and music.
-
gets you on the edge of your seat in the way a good arcade-type game would.
-
fast-paced, no waiting around to restart your next fall.
- a very important element (that you can go from one edge of the play area to the other a la Pacman) isn’t taught to you except as a loading screen type tip (which I didn’t see until after I’d learned it by myself), so I figured you couldn’t go to the sides at first. this made some jumps that would otherwise have been easy hat frustratingly appear impossible to avoid. I kinda wish that info were relegated to an info tab or something in the menu, rather than as an obscure tip.

Patterna
An enjoyable puzzle game, Patterna kept my attention for dozens and dozens of hours. You need to determine which cells are or are not marked as part of ‘the pattern’ based on given distribution/adjacency information, somewhat akin to Minesweeper or Hexcells. Like the latter of those, all puzzles are set up in a way that you never strictly need to make a random guess.
The thing that’s really singular about Patterna in my view is the robustness of the random level generator. I was able to find settings that generated interesting random puzzles more often than not. The only issue is that sometimes the chain of reasoning was difficult enough that I needed to break out pen and paper and brute force the next move, which generally felt more like bookkeeping than entertainment. On the whole, though, the game did a good job of hitting a reasonable middle ground of difficulty.
– Real player with 97.6 hrs in game
In short: Patterna is a challenging hard-logic puzzle game with a steep learning curve. The mechanics are varied and the replayability infinite, but it is very rough around the edges with poor and sometimes frustrating implementation. If you have a low tolerance for bad UI, stay away. If you can stomach that and are a seasoned veteran of logic games, Patterna is well worth buying at full price.
In long: The developer himself compares Patterna’s mechanics to Hexcells, and one can immediately see the inspiration. But Patterna is far from a knock-off, does its own thing and expands gameplay well beyond the scope of Hexcells. Nodes may be revealed or not, may be part of a pattern or not, may carry information about nodes around them up to a distance of 3, may describe the length of the chain they are part of, may have up to 4 colors, may be unlinked, linked or directionally linked, etc. The complexity is smart and truly awe-inspiring, but comes at a cost:

Virus Blast
This game has infected me like a Virus.
I love it. It’s incredibly addicting. I purchased it two seconds after Shattered Rift’s stream. We’ve been competing for the leader board. I can’t get enough, and I’m pretty sure I robbed the developers and need to buy more copies for people or find a donate button.
All of my thanks for such an addicting game. Props to y’all.

June 21st Edit. Virus Blast is a strong candidate for my choice of Indie Game of the Year 2020. If you enjoy non-traditional games, it’s fantastic. The learning curve is a bit steep, but every upgrade you unlock feels incredibly satisfying.

I’m currently ranked 3rd on the Leader Boards, and the video above shows why Virus Blast is as satisfying to play as it is to watch.
