Want your game's steam desktop icon to show up big on desktops?
Go to Edit Steamworks Settings>Installation>Client Images and upload an ICO under Client Icon that is 512x512px.
A lot of indies miss this.

One of the concepts I learned early on in game dev is making games "less accessible". Giving players a unique and legitimately rare experience can feel magical and have a huge impact on the player.
(Think more like easter eggs, not NFTs)

One of the game design mechanics I'm proud of in Duelists!
Duelists of edenの毒は上手く調整されていると思う
毒を与えると相手に毒が蓄積し、毒が０になるまで継続ダメージ
ここまでなら普通
毒の蓄積と同時に相手の最前列に毒治療ゾーンが発生しそこに行くと毒が早く治る
ここが秀逸
相手は前に行きたくなるので、そこを逆手に色々出来る

RoA did a good job I think, it's a whole different aesthetic of course. But you're right, it's a big reason why fighting games moved to 3d models

Is this happening to any other devs? They've already made 3 different websites/domains that copy mine and lead to malware.
Here's "DuelistOfEden dot com" vs my real website ""
(notice their url is missing the S at the end of Duelist"
Apparently someone is making copies of my website and leading visitors to malware!
The game is NOT available to freely download! Please do not download anything that is not on Steam.

Normally I'm not a fan of re-launches. But I think giving the next generation a chance to try out some classics is awesome!

Indie games don't have to be financially successful to be "good". They can just be innovative or interesting or tell a story. Indie games are art.

Putting this in a game, much less a TRAILER is wild.
Special Heroes who are racking their brains over a winter-festival assignment will be featured in an upcoming new summoning event: Holiday Lessons! Also, 5★ Hero Claude: Yuletide Schemer will appear as a Score Reward in the next Tempest Trials+ event!

Indie devs don't care if you pirate their game, they just want more people to play it! Just tell your friends to play it too.

Name one studio that's starting a new Unity project after today.
So what do I think will happen to Unity?
- The change mostly impacts AA/AAA studios. The amount of $ in question is not enough to push them to another engine (+alternatives are currently insufficient)
- A % of current Free users will leave the Unity ecosystem. Unity plans for it

Marketing is important, but it won't turn your game into a success.
If your indie game is a fire, marketing is like kindling. It brings new players in.
But if the fuel (the game itself) is weak, players won't stick around. The fire will burn out.

I tried to help a streamer playing my game. He would give up and facepalm everytime he missed a spell (which you have infinite of) because an enemy moved. Enemies move in timed patterns! What kind of mindset is this?

Yep, meta progression goes against my design values, but it's a strong incentive and gives players a bit of progression indefinitely. It's like the MSG of roguelites.
A game that is fun doesn't need meta progress to convince you to play more of it.

One Step From Eden's focus/brand system was inspired by the Warcraft III Custom Map "Pokemon Defense," where you could set two "pokemon finders" to a type, (grass, water, fire, none, etc.) and only those pokemon types would appear next round.

Used Photoshop to make pixel art animations for the longest time (I came from a UI/graphic design background)
If anyone is still using Photoshop for pixel art, I would highly recommend trying aseprite or anything else.

Just spent hours debugging because Germany and other countries change how float.Parse() works in C# (Unity).
It ignores periods in float numbers because regionally they use commas "," as decimals. This means any float like 3.4 becomes 34. 🤦♂️

Achieved a dream of going to GDC! I never thought I'd actually have an opportunity to go there. I distinctly remember how out of reach it felt when I first started developing, and it had felt that way until I saw the acceptance email from Indie Megabooth. This is awesome.
One Step From Eden is officially part of

When you're planning your Kickstarter achievement rewards/stretch goals make them things you ALREADY plan to do. Then when you have to cut things for scope, don't cut those things.
