Buried Treasure changed my life - doubt I'd be working on game#2 if it weren't for the 'holds up against Prey' headline. A small contribution to keep a distinguished, artful and amusingly controversial (or controversially amusing?) video game writer type person in business, you'd be mad not to.

I never ask "would you play it?" because I'm making it regardless. I also don't like "What do you guys think?" because that's too needy. Good points though. If I start drafting my CAE2 reddit post now it should be approaching perfection by the time I have something to say!

Why is it recommended not to mention game's name? That seems the most obvious thing to do from my POV - if people see only one thing as they scroll past, they see the game title.

I unashamedly use it to knock up quick tools (that don't run in-game) - I find it very impressive technology. It gives the illusion of 'understanding' the code / my spec in ways I did not expect. it's also a useful learning + reference resource.

Low stakes frustration, but it's bothering me how the Immersive Sim tag on Steam has been rendered absolutely useless by the amount of [Whatever] Store Simulator games tagging themselves with that, rather than the Deus Ex, Thief, System Shock inspired games. A tag flooded by hundreds of clones.

I tried to promote my game on there (and a few other subs) around launch time with the same result - feels like everything is stacked against small devs at times.

A really good indie one is Ctrl Alt Ego, which has SO many ways to solve problems. And also a huge achievement list for doing absolutely unhinged stuff. You can apparently complete the whole game without even unlocking the jump button. The developer tested some absolute pervert stuff.
