#CloneOptimizeSacrifice Update
The full game loop is rocking and rolling
It is still an early prototype, but it has expanded to cover close to the full demo content
I would love it if you could check it out and drop me some feedback. #gamedev #solodev

After many prototypes I have settled on my next game that I will work on for 2026.
Clone. Optimize. Sacrifice.
Part city builder, spreadsheet RPG, and auto-battler.
You can try the very early prototype now on itch.
hulgarth.itch.io/clone-optimi...
A long way to go, but I am loving it.
Greetings;
My next prototype is ready for feedback.
"Mandatory Overtime" a simulation-style game where you manage a giant harvester to gather resources on alien planets while defending against alien creatures and managing systems.

Ya, I have seen that as well at times. It doesn't make any sense to me. No one knows your game better than the players. Most of the best ideas in my games have come from player ideas and suggestions. I am a solo dev, but I don't work a lone. My players / community is my QA team and creatives.
Thank you, and ya bluesky is a rising star of a platform. I might be early, but I think more coming as X has really dropped off for a lot of us indie's at least. And thank you, I am very happy with the reviews so far. I still got a lot of work planned, but it is a fantastic starting point.
Honestly, discord is my number 1. But I drop tweets on X, but it sucks these days. So, I been mixing in Bluesky posts as well. I also post on reddits for each of my games, but discord is the best interactions I get. Reaching new players is always very hard for small self-published indie.
#SurvivingCeres Update📢
Just dropped some new 1.2 hot fixes that should tackle some lingering issues.
I also just overcame an annoying technical issue. We are looking good to move on to work for the 1.3 build 🔥🔥

The retail sim genre has a lot of asset flips and AI slop following the success of some titles.
However, today I saw an entry that was crafted with love, thought, and high quality. "Teddy's Haven"
