Put the campground's money into a fountain and some flowerbeds instead of, you know ... showers 🚿 No regrets so far 🤷‍♂️ #ScreenshotSaturday #CampingKeeper #tycoon #simgame #cozygame #indiedev #indiegame #gaming

Alpha day!!! Ten people are opening Camping Keeper for the first time today, with one instruction: play the first half hour alone and tell me where you got lost. Closed alpha, demo early 2027. Wish me luck 🏕️ #indiegame #tycoon #simgame #indiedev #devgame

Tomorrow, a handful of testers get Camping Keeper! ⛺ First time the game runs on a machine that isn't mine 😍 Closed alpha, so no keys to hand out here, but wishlisting is how you'll hear about the demo in early 2027 🏕️ #WishlistWednesday #tycoon #indiegame #indiedev #simgame #steam

#TrailerTuesday Camping Keeper: you lay out the tent sites, the paths, the water and the power lines, then a few hundred campers show up and each of them decides for themselves what to do with the place. Alpha coming this month. Demo early 2027! Wishlist on Steam now :) #tycoon #simgame #indiegame

Campfire hour🔥 Four campers, two benches, one log, and nobody sitting. The river right there. Alpha testers get the game next week, so these are the last quiet evenings before everything's broken 😂 Camping Keeper, a campground tycoon. #screenshotsaturday #tycoon #simgame #indiegame

Today I'm showing you profile creation. You give your manager a name and a look. Do you like this kind of detail? Does it help you make a game your own? #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #IndieGame #steamgame

Setting the alpa Playtest today. First time I hit Play on Camping Keeper from my own Steam library instead of from my IDE!!! Same build, same game, but it boots like a real game now 😍 Solo dev, still a lot to fix before the playtest opens. #indiedev #gamedev #tycoon #campingkeeper

Tutorial 2 in Camping Keeper is the one about water and power. Pipes and cables are buried, which is realistic and completely unhelpful when you are learning. So the lesson teachs how works electricity and water layers. #ScreenshotSaturday #tycoon #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Before / after: my ponds were just blue rectangles sitting on the grass, and my rocks were marbles 😅 Now the ponds are dug into the ground and the rocks got actual facets. And... I love the new fountain (editable by player). Camping Keeper #ScreenshotSaturday #tycoon #simgame #indiedev #devgame

Solo devs: how do you teach a network system, pipes, power, coverage, etc., without a wall of tooltips? Rebuilding the Camping Keeper tutorial this week, and every solution I like starts with letting the player break something first. #gamedev #gamedesign #indiedev

My sister playtested Camping Keeper this weekend. She stayed way longer than planned, which I'm choosing to read as a good sign. Closed alpha in September 🏕️ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #tycoon #managementgame

#ScreenshotSaturday 🏕️ Stress testing the reception: a few hundred campers all show up at the same time. Nobody falls through the floor, they all queue properly. The last one in line is in for a long wait. Camping Keeper, every camper simulated one by one. #tycoon #simgame #indiedev #gamedev

Spent the last few days on the barbecue. 🫕 Every group of campers has its own way of eating: grilling, snack stand or shopping at the grocery store. If the one they like isn't in the camp, they don't starve, they just fall back on something else. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #tycoon #simgame

Night on the campground, and a bit of weather rolling through 🌧️ Every camper down there is simulated one by one, with their own needs and their own budget. Camping Keeper 🏕️ #tycoon #simgame #indiegame #gamedev

Cranked the litter rate way up in Camping Keeper to see what happens. Two things are obvious now: it's far too much 😅, and my trash doesn't read as trash, it looks like confetti. So the bins stay and the models get redesigned 🤭 #indiedev #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #tycoon

7am at my campground. Two toilets for the whole site: one broken, one nobody will go near. And a queue forming. Nothing scripted here, I just managed badly. In Camping Keeper, every camper is simulated. What's your worst campground bathroom memory? #tycoon #simgame #indiegame #citybuilder

Some small glow-ups for the power transformer and the water stations 🔧 In Camping Keeper, your campground runs on real water and power networks. Overload them and the showers run dry. #WIPWednesday #WishlistWednesday #tycoon #simgame #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #devlog

New this week: paths! Five surfaces to build with: flagstone, gravel, packed dirt, boardwalk and (reluctantly) asphalt. Campers walk faster on them, and each one changes the mood of a corner. Which one gets the path to the showers? #indiedev #gamedev #tycoon
