The hardest part about indie game marketing for me is staying consistent🫠 I kinda forgot to write here for couple of days.. So today I will say: The Red valve reached 160 wishlists on steam! Yay. Hope I will remember to find something to post here tomorrow as well😵‍💫 #GameDev #IndieGame

The first thing that came to my mind when I saw it was "I want to collect them all"

I was so busy working on my game recently that I totally missed 2 big things that happened this week! I got to 100 subscribers on YouTube! And one of the best Unreal Engine content creators (CobraCode) have gave me a shout out on his video!! Things like that give me some hope🥹 #GameDev #IndieGame

Today my mind was kinda blown away! I made a post on reddit about looking for a composer for The Red Valve.. and i didn't really think i will get any reply on it. But suddenly dozens of composers have started reaching out to me!🥹 they are all so talented and amazing!!! #GameDev #IndieGame

And again... was to busy working on the game so wasn't active here today. It really feels nice to finally be productive and actually spend the week working on my game. Especially after couple of weeks experiencing imposter syndrome and creative block while barely doing anything #IndieGame #GameDev

Was to busy working on my game... so I didn't have time to think what to upload here today😔 So I will just put here a link to the steam page in hope someone will Wishlist it. I heard every wishlist makes a random person very happy! (Me) store.steampowered.com/app/4983590/... #IndieGame #GameDev

The Red Valve on Steam

You, me, and a single red valve. Just spin, win, and move on. Don't overthink it.

Everybody is talking about the big Valve leak now... But no one talks about the big Red Valve leak 😞 #IndieDev #GameDev

I can't really show a lot of things from my game because almost every little part of the gameplay will be a major spoiler.. its hard to advertise "Stanley-like" games.. So for #ShowcaseSaturday and #ScreenshotSaturday I have random picture related to the game with no context #GameDev #IndieGames

Tal DS @tal-ds.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

1300 people downloaded my game on @itch.io Almost anyone who played compared it to the Stanley Parable. Some people even started calling it a Stanley-Like game. But actually my biggest inspiration was "The Corridor" by @freeze.ltd #indiedev #gamedev

I pressed the first button 2 weeks ago to publish my first steam page. Still have some time until I need to press the final button😞

Gamedev is just an act of doing a chain of simple things to create something complicated, so thats indeed a good start🙂‍↕️

I redesigned the mouse icons in my game to look a bit more like actual mice I feel like it's less confusing this way😌 #gamedev #indiedev
