Wishlist my game, Solaire! - https://store.steampowered.com/app/4441110/Solaire/ _ Brisbane 🇦🇺 // Game Dev Person _ They // Them _ Banner by @meltted.bsky.social

Currently asking friends for feedback on WIP music for Solaire and I'm having to preface my strange instrument choices with the fact the brief I gave myself was "Battle bgm for when Queen Elizabeth comes back from the dead and oh no she's got a gun!!!!" Game dev is awesome

The main design goal of Solaire has shifted in the last few months from "make cool rpg with fun gameplay mechanics that add depth" to "use that to engineer as many scenarios for funny faces as possible" and like I hope there'll be like one or two that people other than me find really funny.

a large blue slime creature recoils in...disgust? agony? I'm honestly not sure at this point...

Solaire broke 30,000 wishlists over the weekend. I don't know where people are still coming from, but I am glad people are excited for the game! Thank you all so much! I'm working hard on getting the demo out soon :)

Wishlist Actions Steam page for Solaire.

~30.5k total wishlist adds, 254 deletions. Total of 30,298

I think above all else I'm really glad people seem to like (or at least not dislike enough to say anything) the music in Solaire's trailer because composing is by far the thing I find most challenging. I only really started doing it this year.

Solaire's steam page hasn't even been live a full week and we just cracked 25,000 wishlists!?!?!?! HUH??? I don't even know what to say... so I drew a dumb comic instead. Thank you all so much! I can't wait to show you what I've been cooking up!

Header text says "Thanks for 25,000 wishlists!!!"

Comic below of Piper and Claire eating cake. Piper says "Where did they all come from?". Claire replies with "IDK dude, just eat your damn cake"

Is there one of these for people making cool RPGs cause if not I might get on that 👀

Cheeky monkeys! Been a while since I shared my #SHMUP #STG starter pack. #gamedev in the genre and wanna be included? Reach out! Also opening it to streamers that do mostly SHMUP exclusive content. No AI in your stream, artwork, music or design! Passable if in the game engine such as Godot, etc.

The comments on all the coverage of Solaire has almost unanimously been really positive but I just saw someone call it "womanslop" and now I just really want to end up on that "woke games" steam list.
