Added game difficulty selection to my incremental game. It is quite rare to see this in incrementals but I want both people who want to relax and looking for a bit depth to enjoy Lux Anima. Maybe other indie games could do this too! chillfoxgames.itch.io/lux-anima

My game's code versus a bowl of spaghetti. I can't tell which is which anymore and everytime I look at my game I feel hungry. 😀 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

A small example of how much lighting and color can change the overall feel of a game. Since releasing the Lux Anima demo, I’ve been gathering feedback and continuously iterating on the game, and the changes go far beyond visuals. Thanks for all the support so far! #gamedev #indiegame

New profile photo! This is me as the Pajama Spirit from my game Lux Anima. He’s always in his pajamas, always a bit sleepy… which is basically me while coding. Yep, I definitely based him on myself 🙌

I really enjoyed designing this cutie as an enemy. Her bomb is my favorite part, it gives her a lot of character.. You can try the demo and wishlist Lux Anima on Steam! #gamedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

As you upgrade the Spirit Dog, I designed it to grow stronger and eventually unlock lightning damage that hits multiple enemies at once. You can try the Lux Anima demo on Steam and itchio, wishlists are always appreciated! #gamedev #indiegame

Your beautiful flowers both defend the core and attack incoming enemies. One of the deadliest is the Fire Lily, it fires deadly projectiles at incoming enemies. You can play the Lux Anima demo on Steam and itchio. Don’t forget to wishlist! #indiegame #gamedev

In many incremental games, skill trees tend to grow into one large system over time. They offer depth, but can also become overwhelming and harder to navigate. I tried a different approach in Lux Anima, what do you think? #gaming #indiegame #gamedev #devlog #cozygames #steamgame #itchio

Do you like playing games that require strategy, or ones you can just go with the flow? In Lux Anima, both playstyles are supported. You can plan everything, or keep it simple and relax. Don’t forget to wishlist Lux Anima on Steam! #indiegame #gaming #freetoplay #cozygame #steam #towerdefense

I’ve always loved listening to lo-fi and Japanese music, and making it as well. Both the game design and the soundtrack of Lux Anima are heavily influenced by that passion. If you like the vibe, don’t forget to wishlist it on Steam! #indiegame #gamedev #cozygaming #music #pcgaming

This game starts slow and calm. As you trust the progression, the system begins to take over. In Lux Anima, the player role evolves, from active control to higher-level decisions through automation. Try the Lux Anima demo on Steam and itchio! #indiegames #gaming #towerdefense #idlegame #cozygame

One of the spirit types in my game is the Bomb Spirit. Her cuteness is inspired by a real person, but in the game, she’s still someone you’ll have to defeat. The Lux Anima demo is on Steam & itchio, let me know what you think! #indiegame #gamedev #cozygames #incrementalgames

Good game design isn’t always about showing more and making every player decision strategic. In Lux Anima, attacks are automatic, and there’s no clear indicator for when they trigger. It’s about flow, not micromanagement. #indiegame #cozygames #incrementalgame #towerdefense #freetoplay #gamedev

One of the main inspirations behind this game is simply water. Its calmness, clarity, and sense of purity make it my favorite element. Even if it’s not blue, I think black completes the feeling of night perfectly🌚 #gamedev #indiegame #lofimusic #minimalistart #cozygames youtube.com/shorts/5caLP...

I think it’s still too early to say in my case, I don’t have enough data to make a proper comparison yet 🫠 On YouTube, vertical videos seem to get slightly more reach than my horizontal ones. So they might be performing a bit better in terms of views, but I’m not sure about the CTR yet.

What do you think about these kinds of vertical videos for promoting a game? Any ideas on how to make them better in general? youtube.com/shorts/9i9nV... #gamedev #gamepromotion #marketing #indiegame

Why do people believe 2D art is easier than 3D modeling? With modeling there are assets to use and modify, and tools for modeling are very strong and capable. On the other hand, 2D is all about abstraction and art. #pcgame #gamedev #gaming #pc #games #steam #indiegames #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart

How to keep a game peaceful when every action has its own sound? In Lux Anima, monsters spawn every sec. You defeat them, flowers bloom, seeds drop.. they all make sounds. Yet, game never loses its relaxing feel. If you want to give it a try, the demo is available on Steam! #indiegames #devlog

I wanted to create a game that feels calm instead of stressful. In this game, you grow flowers, fight spirits, and try to keep everything alive while slowly building your strength. #towerdefense #cozygames #incrementalgame #gamedev #indiegame www.youtube.com/shorts/gD2xh...

This is a good point. I have taken a note of this and will try to come up with something.

Chillfox Games @chillfox-games.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
Hmm I don't know how to improve that. I really don't want to implement a hard tutorial which I am not a big fan.

One question if I may ask, did you notice the tutorial tips below after you fail a level or should I make it more highlighted for more people to notice?

Chillfox Games @chillfox-games.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
Your energy always run out. The purpose is to survive untill you fill your lantern if you can do that you pass to the next prestige(difficulty). You unlock more powers/rewards by doing so.

Chillfox Games @chillfox-games.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
Thanks for trying out. Everytime you fail you see tips on the bottom of the page written in pinkish/purple explaining all the stuff you said. I though that would be enough but would you prefer a tutorial? Flowers produce essence that fills your lantern.

Managers in this case would still create scrambled dependencies. Don't get me wrong I am not against singletons or SoL's. It is just that for this case dependency injections using strapper classes gave me more control. I plan to split it into different assemblies which would lower my compile times.
