I released my first game on Steam and got rid of impostor syndrome!

My first game Mushy Score is out on Steam! I have been creating games since I was a child but never felt like a real game dev. Now I finally have a game that I can show to other people.

Mushy Score is a 2D Roguelike where you fight against endless waves of enemies. Collect points and try to get a high score! I am super exited for the release !

Thank you! I used Monogame and it was interesting experience trying out framework instead of engine. As a long time Unity dev I liked the full freedom with framework and liked creating everything myself. It is probably not best fit for beginners but for someone with C# experience it is something that I would recommend.

As Linux user myself I want to promote Linux gaming!

Most of my testing/playing have been on steamdeck! In my local game events I just walked to people and gave them my steamdeck to test the game :D

Thank you! Leave a review if you enjoy the game or have some other feedback ;)

Thanks for feedback! I will take a look at these! I think I made the green slime transparent in the score screen so it doesn't cover all other enemies, but power up thing sounds like a bug!

If you want to help game get visibility, writing review on steam would be really helpful!

Yeah, my first problem is getting people to notice the game, but getting all negative reviews would probably be depressing :D

Thank you! Hope you enjoy the game!

I would also say that most of the walking simulators that where mentioned here:

My mentions would be The Last of Us, Spec Ops: The Line and Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Also The Stanley Parable depending on what you consider "completing" that game.

League of Legends: I try to get diamond before Riot removes Linux support.
Mushy Score: I a lot of testing before releasing the game.
Spiritfarer: Just to have something relaxing alternative.

Do you find open source games interesting/good thing as a gamer?

@games I am a game developer working on game called Mushy Score. I decided that my niche would be to create open source games. I think these could be helpful for developers or teachers to teach about games and how they are made. Most open source games are small game jam games, but there are few “real games” that are open source like 0 A.D. and Doom. As a non-developer do you think open source games could be good thing?

@guntha @games That is kinda niche of my game studio. I will still try to make games that are good and fun experience for the players.

@B0NK3RS Thanks for sharing!

Yeah, that is my current approach, the code is open source, but assets needs to be bought (that's how for example Doom is "opensource"). There are many ways to do open source and I guess I need to find out what is best way for me.

Examples of different types of open source games: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open-source_video_games
