After a year and a half I can say...
💎DRILLBOUND is OUT NOW 💎
It's my take on the incremental genre, crafted to have you crushing layers of rock.
Leaving a review or a like helps a lot to an (almost) solo developer like me. I hope you enjoy it♥

"you could vibe code an alternative in a week"
Says CEO of company that has been unable to make a good alternative after years of trying, and vibe coded an even worse alternative.
"Valve has held gaming back"
Says CEO of company that brough exclusivity contracts to pc.
Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney says Valve "has held gaming back for years."
Sweeney was replying to Kiaran Ritchie, a former principal animation programmer at Epic, who criticized Steam's 30% cut and said "You could vibe code a Steam alternative in a week." Sweeney wrote that Valve locks developers' PC games into "Steamworks' social walled garden where players can't talk to other players on iOS, Android, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, or even other PC stores."
A community note was added saying many games use Steamworks only for authentication to allow crossplay and handle the rest themselves. Sweeney called the note "fake," saying Steam Datagram Relay "isn't related to the things I cited: social, and players talking to each other across platforms."

If you think speed is where you can take users from Steam you are comically clueless
We vibe coded the Epic Games Launcher to be faster than the other guy.

I keep seeing indie devs giving up on their dream & passion because "AI can decompile & clone any game now." Maybe it can, but my dream is to create my own games so I'm going to do that & if I become a hobo, starve & die, whelp at least I did it chasing my dreams I guess.
Bueno pues hoy @EvilAFM ha jugado a mi jueguito y en stream y le ha parecido: terrible... Ha ido por una ruta en el skilltree que no había visto en la vida y por ello no ha avanzado. Toca asegurarse que no le pase a nadie más.
Como dijo una vez un sabio: te caes, te levantas.

Drillbound from @TimeSeekerDev has passed 100 reviews!
Thanks to all those who joined the adventure and are pushing the Drill further in the depths, to incrementally reach the core of a mysterious planet.
Join the roughnecks in this pixelated excavation!

For context, Steamworks simply does not give every game the option to request a compatibility test from the get-go.
But one hour after this happened in Drillbound's discussions, Valve automatically made a request for me for a Steam Deck compatibility test. 10/10

Si os gustan los juegos incrementales echadle un ojo a Drillbound, un pequeño juego español que funciona como un tiro. Tuve un par de problemas jugando prelanzamiento pero ya están corregidos, así que muy recomendado el juego de @TimeSeekerDev 🪨
