I've been building an online & couch-co-op multiplayer falling-sand-physics roguelite game called Signs of Danger using Macroquad for the last 2 years, and I just announced the game and launched the Steam page today!

You can wishlist on Steam here.

If you'd like to support the game, please like/repost the Announcement Teaser Trailer, the Bluesky post and/or the X/Twitter post, and consider signing up to my devlog newsletter (which tbh is mostly gifs with a smattering of bad jokes)

wow that reddit preview link embed thing is quite out of date - I'll just hide it

#

anyway, the game:

  • networked and local multiplayer using ggrs under the covers
  • macroquad so opengl based graphics
  • lighting is radiance cascades
  • rigid body physics is rapier of course
  • and falling sand engine is all custom

This looks soo good!

Depends on if enough people ask for it to justify the work - I have heard that listing to another store is nowhere near as trivial as one might expect, you have to keep updating it with every new game update of course, and (I vaguely suspect but am not sure that) with GOG comes the additional expectation of being able to work without depending on steam's various services, which is potentially a lot of dev work.

Then, devs also get very little additional revenue from listing elsewhere - this graph I saw at a gamedev conference says that if I do say 100k revenue on Steam I'd make about $500 from listing on GOG, which would very much not be worth it (financially, at least - I do like GOG's moral position). Obviously if you do 10M in revenue that picture looks a lot better but we all know how vanishingly unlikely that is - supposedly even Tiny Glade has only done 7-8M

Out of curiosity, how is it depending on steam's various services ?
