Here my out. Valve did this for us.
Here's the link to official Valve's Dropbox with templates, ready to use, properly prepared.

Steam developers --
🖼 Here's an infographic that shows (most of) the capsules/banners that Steam requires. (Includes an example capsule for Witchmore, my game.)
Do you have any tips for making images that fit within the very different image sizes?

On a totally unrelated note to my tweet that has moved outside of my circle:
Check out some articles on Indie Games made by human people on some websites I run:

And not even a week later, the v0.8 update is released.

In this messy discourse of ai-slop this, slop that, what's real gamedev, ceos etc.. I want to remind all developers of this.
Do not buy into the fear mongering that #indiedev is dead. The amount of games you compete with is _the same_, literally hasn't changed in years.

It's been a day since A Weird Village's Steam page went live, and I thought I'd share some numbers.
260 visits (bots excluded).
50 wishlists.
It can't always be sunshine and rainbows ☺️
I had very different expectations for day one, and this has been my first real reality check. I'm actually questioning quite a few things about the project right now, especially since this isn't some slop I threw together over a weekend 🫠
At the same time, I want to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has wishlisted the game already. The support I get from so many of you still blows me away every time 🥹
Now I need to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

We’ve teamed up with Jordan from O. & Co. Games!
In this tutorial, he's showing us how to make platformer movement feel smoother, more responsive, and more organic.

⚙️ More map assets are coming...
Save time. Build worlds!
ALT A preview of a hand-drawn modular medieval village asset pack. A large vectorized black-and-white timber house is shown in the foreground with visible vector paths, while dozens of different medieval buildings appear behind it. The assets are designed to be combined into custom fantasy maps for tabletop RPGs and indie games.

It took a bit doing, but game is completely playable with keyboard now ⌨️
Will try to find the Xbox controller from storage and get that working next.

Started working on controller and keyboard support.
Instead of setting what menu option is selected directly, I reposition and snap pointer to the next/prev option, works pretty well.

AI companies are single handedly ruining one of your escapes. Microsoft and Sony will be next.
Ya gotta get louder son.

Bane of Antagon is in the making! The overland exploration for my new heroic-fantasy hex-crawler prototype is coming together nicely. Towns, combat encounters from easy to boss, and plenty more.
