It’s refreshing to learn that even at Nintendo, difficulty tuning comes down to “if one guy who is kind of important and kind of bad at games can do it, it’s probably balanced” lol

I combined precise card playing, strategic deck building, and chaotic auto-battling to create Become the Moon! Try the demo now: store.steampowered.com/app/2862890/... #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

My name is Ben! I'm a game developer working on Become the Moon, a deckbuilding autobattler game. We just launched a brand new demo on Steam! It's like the old demo but BETTER IN EVERY WAY! Play it on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2862890/...

I adopted a cat a few months ago. She’s a bit of a menace, but look at her.

I love this and was compelled to make my own list. Here's my top 15 free games. It was originally a top 25, but I wasn't all that compelled by the bottom 10, so I removed them.
