Here's my next game, ROTETRA, a tetromino stacker where you spin the whole board and juggle multiple pieces at once! It's a little bit cursed, but I've been having fun making it! Play the demo (and wishlist 👉👈): store.steampowered.com/app/4306820/... also, on web: sharkwithlasers.itch.io/rotetra

Shout out to Chomp Garden! This game wasn't on my radar at all, but I had a delightful time with it on stream the other day. Short and sweet sokoban-style game. 100% with all achievements in ~2.5 hours

Chomp Gardenは各問題を通して暗黙的にルールを開示してくるタイプの倉庫番系。謎の植物が良い感じに妨害してくるので、植物の動きを上手いこと誘導してゴールに辿り着く必要がある。デモは12問のみだったけど、その中に魅力が分かり易く詰まっていたので大変良かった。 store.steampowered.com/app/4457150/...

it would be appreciated if you just help spreading out about this. honestly, I haven't been donated for my curations for the last two years and now I must look for real work. I’m not sure how long I could keep continuing my contribution with making a balance of my life. your support means a lot!
