We are excited to present the first free DEMO of DEEPLANDERS, our game.

It will be available for a limited time, whoever wants to try it, take advantage now and if you like it, please don't forget to add it to your wishlist, it really helps us a lot!

Steam: http://steam.pm/app/3192550

Thank you for your support! 

PS: In this case, it was not developed in GS, that's why I put it in this category.

We have launched the mobile edition of Ultimate, for iPhone and iPad, enjoy it :)

As I mentioned before, I have a game studio company, currently developing games in Unity (I use GS in my personal projects with my son) and I wanted to introduce you to a new game we released today in early acce (yes, I know... pretty active these days ! )

Now we are proud to present our new game: Slidemagi!

Slidemagi is a turn-based strategy game in which units move by sliding the lines of the board. You are a Mage who, using your deck of cards, can summon spells or create units with unique abilities to fight under your control.

You choose how to have fun: Immerse yourself in adventure mode, earning new spells and units, or compete in tactical online magical duels, where your strategic use of your Mage's deck determines your success against rivals.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2347340/Slidemagi/

We invite all to become a part of Slidemagi's development by joining our Discord community or leaving your comments in the Steam discussions area.

Thank you for joining us on this journey! We hope you enjoy this new adventure as much as we enjoyed creating it :)

We hope you can have fun, and as always, we'll be looking forward to your feedback and constructive comments, which help us improve.

Thanks!

Stay safe :)

I'd like to introduce you my upcoming game, called: Singles' Generation.

It will be a visual novel-sitcom hybrid, inspired by fan favorite TV shows like Friends or How I Met Your Mother.

The focus will be on a group of young friends, and their everydays.

Becoming an adult and finding our own happiness is always an interesting topic, and it couldn't be more relevant now than ever: since the internet and social media is almost as important part of their lives like breathing, today's young generation has to face a lot of things, which their predecessors didn't. Online dating, online bullying, influencers are all important present-day topics that will be covered in the game (among others). Of course, the approach of these topics will be much more lightweight than dramatic, since the game's goal is to bring the sitcom experience from the TV screen to our PC's monitors.

To make the story and the characters more believable and lifelike, I've decided to go against the genre standard anime-like graphic style and I've hired more than 40 models to participate in this project. We have made hundreds of photos in several outfits to cover all possible emotions, and to be able to change the characters' clothes constantly as the story progresses and the season's changing from summer to autumn, then winter.

The first season will contain 10 episodes and in each episode we'll get the chance to take control of one of the characters. We'll learn more about them and the player will have the chance to manage their dialogues which can make small changes in their side-stories.

A character introduction video was made as well, please check it out on YouTube:

The game is coming to Steam this year, and the planned release date is somewhere around May.

If you like the concept, please add it to your wishlist on Steam, thank you.

Also, since the game's quite different from most of the visual novels out there, I'm really curious what you think about it. So if you have anything to say about it, please don't hesitate.

Thanks,

Mark

I made my first mobile game made with GameSalad 12 years ago, and my first adventure game made with GameSalad, The Secret of Grisly Manor, was released 11 years ago.

And now I am excited to announce the release of my latest adventure game, Curse of the Cobra!

This game wasn't made with GameSalad, but I still know so many of you here that I figured it was ok to post about it :-)

I still lurk on the forums, and I still miss this community.

Anyway, here are some links to the game if you want to check it out:

Apple App Store:

Warm regards,

And here are some screenshots from the game:

I just set up a Discord server last night so people can discuss my games, adventure games in general, or anything in between.

My first adventure game, The Secret of Grisly Manor, was originally made with GameSalad back in 2009! 😮

Everyone is welcome to join, hang out, promote your own games, get feedback, recommend other games, discuss the app industry, whatever.

I'm also planning to release soon a series of YouTube videos on how to create adventure games. Game design, art, animation, programming, and sound effects, publishing to the app stores, etc.

Here is the link to join:

Hope to see you there!

Warm regards,

Joe

Basically, I managed to produce a fun, complete and quirky, smooth-running game, so no issues at all with GS, once ironed out - it really is a testament to what can be achieved with GS given enough time and lateral thinking...)

PS - Be careful with Chartboost, guys - Courier Chaos has been available for over 12 months now, and lots of people are confirming that they're watching LOADS of video reward ads on it, but still - 49 CENTS is all it's earned?!... that figure hasn't increased or changed in 6 months.... Hmmm....

...So anyway... I've moved on, as I wanted to break into Steam, plus my projects were getting bigger and more ambitious (in terms of processor usage and AI coding, etc), and THIS is my latest release:-

TetraLogical!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/814420/TetraLogical/

If anyone fancies taking a look, it's currently available on PC/Windows Steam (Mac and Linux to follow, then mobile), and I have plenty of free keys for my fellow GS'ers...)...

Just express interest here or via PM, and I'll PM you a key for the full game, the current release of which, can be downloaded right now on Early Access... (TetraLogical already plays a full game, has Human or AI CPU opponents, a level editor, and achievements etc, I'm just adding LOADS more stuff to it in the meantime...)

If anyone would be so kind as to also leave a review on Steam for me after playing it, that would make my week!

Best regards,

Den / Japster

It is not done with GS, but I still wanted to share it because you are “my community”

Thanks

All I can say now is; it is an open world platformer where you are able to explore lots of different trails, western villages, mines etc., it has an incredible day and night cycle system with different types of weather that changes dynamically (inspired by alto's adventure). besides the open world exploring there are super awesome roguelike/arcade battles in the mines. My music composer knew by accident one of the best harmonica players in the world, which really helps making this game as authentic as possible. And ofcourse there is a wondefull story which is one of the key components of this game. I actually went to the USA last summer to do research in Arizona for this game.

Anyways, great stuff is happening, I hope everyone is doing well here, and I hope you like it!

I made my first mobile game made with GameSalad 9 years ago, and my first adventure game made with GameSalad, The Secret of Grisly Manor, was released 8 years ago. Sheesh!

And now I am excited to announce the release of my latest adventure game, Thickety Creek!

This game wasn't made with GameSalad, but I still know so many of you here that I figured it was ok to post about it :-)

And I still lurk on the forums, I miss this community.

Anyway, here are some links to the game if you want to check it out:

And here are some screenshots from the game:

In ‘The War of Genesis: Battle of Antaria,’ players can command their own airship and gigantic combat machines called ‘machinas’ in battles against players from all around the world. There are over 80 heroes from the original series. Players can train and strategize their heroes against enemies and other players using various types of heroes.

The War of Genesis: Battle of Antaria is released in Korea and is having an ongoing soft-launch in 11 other countries including Canada, Philippines, Indonesia, Australia, Singapore, and Norway.

‘The War of Genesis: Battle of Antaria’ has not only incorporated stories from the original series, but also added sub stories and custom stories. In custom stories, players can recreate their favorite scenes from the original series or be creative and make their own stories.

Main Story
‘The War of Genesis: Battle of Antaria’ incorporated stories from the original series. The main story begins by introducing the Pandragon royal family, the main protagonists of the first and second series, who are trying to rebuild their lost kingdom. There are currently 6 acts released.

Sub Story
Sub stories include settings and details not explained in the main story and guides players to new content in the game.

Custom Story
Players can make their own unique stories.

The War of Genesis is a turn-based SRPG where players will carefully assemble allies that can consist of any hero from the main and sub stories or even the very monsters they do battle with. Thе gаmе also оffеrѕ соntrоl of аnсіеnt mасhіnаs (combat machines), which сould turn thе tіdе оf battles. Eасh hеrо іn thе раrtу bеnеfіtѕ from dіffеrеnt airships оr machinas аnd thеу аrе customizable to suit the рlауеr’s рlауѕtуlе. Building a team is not as easy as it seems since players can build teams not only based on heroes’ specialties but also based on heroes’ types, which make the game more interesting.

Aside from building teams, The War of Genesis gives each player their own airship that can move and explore the huge Antarian continent freely. This airship is the base camp where all research and upgrades for heroes and machinas take place in.

On top of that, players will be able to recruit G.S., Eiolin, Rashid, and Duran, and other heroes from The War of Genesis on their airship. There are currently over 80 heroes in The War of Genesis: Battle of Antaria. All heroes in the game have one of 5 types: Water, Fire, Wind, Light, and Dark. Each type has its own advantages, so players will have to strategize before commanding the heroes to battle.

Now this is what makes it more exciting - as you travel all of Antaria with your airship, it reveals the world map under the fog. There are 16 places you can go in Antaria. The airship has a variety of facilities such as the Radar, Forge, Laboratory, Resource Dock, Control Room, and many more. Each facility can be upgraded to provide benefits for you and the team.

Protective Deck - Form a defense team to protect the airship.
Forge - Craft gear for heroes and the airship.
Laboratory - Run all kinds of research in categories like Leadership, Battle, Resource, Hero Gear, and Airship Gear.
Resource Depot - Store and protect resources.
Radar - Detect information from approaching enemies and search for monsters and Dark Armor.
Hangar - Upgrade and research machinas.
Resource Dock – Collect resources.
Capsule Chamber - Earn Psi Energy from heroes placed in sleeping capsules.
Aedura System - Collect treasures to use various enchantments.
Archive Room - Watch stories.
Control Room - The most important facility in the airship. Use airship buffs, craft buffs and check hero rankings.
Trade Ship - Access the Private Shop, Stock Exchange and Bazaar’s Shop.

In The War of Genesis: Battle of Antaria, players also use ‘machinas’ in battle.

Machinas can be upgraded and researched at the Hangar. Players can unlock machinas by raising their admiral level.

Machinas transport player's hero teams to the battlefield.
Players can only summon them once per battle to deliver a deadly blow.
5 machinas become better as they are upgraded and researched.

All 5 machinas have unique qualities.

Asura. Type: Fire. Machina Trait is Movement Speed +35%. It’s battle skill is Asura Incendiary Blast (Damages all enemies. Decrease the enemies’ DEF by 50% for 2 turns).
El Gennaro. Type: Water. Machina Trait is Durability +35%. It’s battle skill is Photon Beam (Damages all enemies. Heal all allies’ HP by 20%).
Janus. Type: Wind. Can be used at admiral Lv.15. Machina Trait is Crit DMG +10%. It’s battle skill is Janus’ Evil Eyes (Damages all enemies. Increase enemies’ debuffs by 1 turn).
Arbalest. Type: Dark. Can be used at admiral Lv.25. Machina Trait is Capacity +20%. It’s battle skill is Lawless (Damages all enemies. Stuns the enemies for 1 turn at 35% chance).
Alondite. Type: Light. Can be used at admiral Lv.35. Machina Trait is Machina Flares +20%. It’s battle skill is Enforce Justice (Damages all enemies. Delays the enemies’ turn by 1).

In The War of Genesis, players can prove themselves and be the strongest by participating in battle with other players in the following ways:

PVP
Kashumir Joust is a 4 on 4 combat system that allows users to virtually battle players from all servers.
Organize heroes for Kashumir Joust and obtain Honor Points by fending off enemies.
The replay feature allows players to review and share the battle for future strategic planning.

Test your strength and battle with other players. Prove that your team is the strongest!

Massive Guild War
Massive PVP Guild War in real time over territory

Guild vs NPC (PVE): By attacking Dark Armor, a hostile NPC that acts like real users, players can plunder resources and materials to upgrade hero skills.
Guild vs Guild (PvP): Active interaction between guild members is needed for tactical and time sensitive attacks and defense, especially when it involves multiple players.

Most of the time in The War of Genesis will be spent on exploring and deciding what to upgrade. Don’t use up all your time on coming up with which strategy will be best. Open up the map and look for new enemies, allies, and also resources. Collecting resources and battling will naturally reveal advantages to fend off attacks from enemies or other players.

The War of Genesis: Battle of Antaria is released in Korea and is having an ongoing soft-launch in Canada, Philippines, Indonesia, India, Australia, Singapore, New Zealand, Malaysia, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. For other countries, please download it through the link below.

Google play has made some drastic changes to their algorithm on 6/21. This caused a massive reduction in installs as far as 80-90%. There's a unity thread that was started on the topic, and there is also a discord thread where over 1,000 Indies are chatting about what changes google has made, and if this is a bug or an intentional change.

https://forum.unity.com/threads/sudden-drop-in-number-of-daily-installs-on-google-play-store.537467/

In a nutshell, the issue is related to the Similar apps and Recommended for you sections. Google play has seemingly reset or changed those sections to favor large developers. We have also inadvertently learned that these categories drive thousands of installs, and keywords are only a small portion of user acquisition.

It's too soon to tell, but it could be just a new algorithm in progress, and not the final result. I've seen some recovery on some apps today, so it could be that this new algorithm is just propagating, and working. I wouldn't panic over it just yet, but it was a very scary update to see many developers suffering 80% drops in installs as a result of this change.

Just wanted to show some screenshots and progress of the latest game that I am working on - Thickety Creek!

This will be the fifth adventure game that I have made since making The Secret of Grisly Manor in GameSalad back in 2009/2010. (!!!)

I hope everyone here is doing well, I still obsessively check the GS forums - a hard habit to break!

I've been working on Thickety Creek for a little over a year now.

Thickety Creek would definitely have been done by now if not for the release of Zelda Breath of the Wild. My son and I were totally addicted. :-)

I'll let you know when the release date looms a little closer. For now, here are some screenshots to whet your appetite!

Warm regards,
Joe
