Announcing: Forbidden Solitaire DLC! It's 2020. Robyn Cierra excavates hidden files in the remnants of a cursed 1995 CD-ROM. A bizarre graveyard of scrapped content lies entombed, deep within the code. You thought your sister was beyond saving. Until now. store.steampowered.com/app/5238350/...

Information: This is for 720 games released (see start of thread). So 8.6% hit 100 reviews, which might mean they are doing OK, depending on budget. And 1.4% hit 1000 reviews. Those games are probably successful (or will be in the long term) but it all depends on team size, time taken etc.

Unfortunately me and a lot of other programmers have been made redundant. A lot of talented people I've had the pleasure of working with over these past 4 years have been affected as well. If anyone's looking for gameplay programmers, designers, audio, etc. please do reach out to us 🙏🖤

Environment diorama/concept art for Glimmer, a puzzle game. It features a lighthouse and tiles of different biomes, such as quarry, beach, grass, thorns, etc. The colours are warm.Pixel art. It's a window to someone's living room, full of plants and moving boxes. A person and a dog look to the outside, where birds fly around a tower of light.Pixel Art.
