Turbo Hatchback Time Attack from @ekenz.bsky.social is pretty satisfying once it "clicks" and you get the hang of how to keep a good flow of boosts

I give my full recommendation to this bundle, and I am definitely not biased in any way whatsoever 👀

I've set up a bundle with Go Kart Island, if you have that then Turbo Hatchback is only £2.69! £4.78 to get both games if you have neither at the moment, which is basically FREE.

Thanks for letting me know, and checking out the demo! The Discord's a bit of a ghost town tbh (probably cause the link was broken 😂) but hopefully this one works discord.gg/CPpmqnXccn

We're still a bit too close to launch for me to have an objective view of causes etc, but safe to say Into the Slimy Mines has 28 100% positive Steam reviews, but hasn't done nearly what we hoped sales-wise. So any shares are massively appreciated store.steampowered.com/app/3639440/...

Absolutely love setting up Steam tags. I had 3 of the 4 games I wanted already, tried tweaking it to include the last game, made it worse, and now when I go back to the original tags and order it only shows 2 of the games. SO MUCH FUN THANK YOU STEAM! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev

No updates. With Turbo Hatchback I wanted to make something I could easily update if it was successful, would be pretty easy to add new cars and tracks. I thought I'd learned a lot with the promotion but it's still hard! Started earlier, contacted more press, doing more posts myself this time.

Ewan McKenzie @ekenz.bsky.social · 29/05/2026
I had the separate page on my last project but I'm not sure if it actually did anything or not once I got 10 reviews, so I just decided to try the single page approach this time. No idea what is better!

Ewan McKenzie @ekenz.bsky.social · 29/05/2026
I only realised it wasn't on by default when I released my demo and had to figure out how to turn it on!

Yeah Windows, just with a PS5 controller, I had been using it since the main menu but I may have used the mouse to change window to write notes. Once I exited the elevator to the next area it showed the PS5 button prompts. I finished the 2nd battle, and the 3rd member of the team had just joined.

Ewan McKenzie @ekenz.bsky.social · 29/05/2026
- In the very first area, the button prompts were showing PC keys (I was using PS5 controller) - Some SFX / impact effects during the battles would help the "feel" I only managed to play 15 minutes but it looks like there's a good amount of content from your store description! Hope this helps.

Ewan McKenzie @ekenz.bsky.social · 29/05/2026
Managed to give it a quick play! I like the 2D/3D combination you have going on. - You can add a bigger download demo button on your main Steam game page (Store Page Admin > Special Settings > Associated Demos)

Thanks a lot! I made the golds quite tough to add some replayability, otherwise you could probably complete the game in like 30 minutes 😂 The PM might not work since I'm in the UK. They banned them, or something!

Works pretty well! Small mistakes cost proportionately more time, and it's shorter so restarting over again isn't as much of an issue. I spent half an hour the other night trying to beat one of my mate's times!

Sakura Park doubles up as a tutorial level, so I kept the layout of that one pretty basic in comparison. To be honest, the names were just me trying to come up with more interesting sounding names than just "Japan" and "California", I think it adds a bit more character!

Had the misfortune of stumbling on a Reddit thread checking how busy a tea shop next to Rockstar North was (cause Scotland is next to England, and English people prefer tea to pizza) as some kind of sign something about GTA6 was being announced. I hate the world.
