I'm starving for reviews for the Demo of Steinstern: Spacewar. 😰 It looks really bad (still no review for a demo from 2022), because I just enabled the separate store page for the demo some weeks ago.

@lgr-yt.bsky.social hi, I am a solo game dev from Austria and I really like the style of your videos! I don't know, if you ever did a review of a game that isn't at least 20 years old, but my game might be something for you: store.steampowered.com/app/1538030/...
(There's a demo or PM me for a key)

Well, only in the dead ends inside a room. (max ~20 cells) There'll be a crate with some loot in each dead end though.

I'm not sure what you mean by backtracking amount.

The door locks are placed at the farthest possible spot away from the doors in a room. But, when you open them new enemies can spawn in.

You can go back as far as you want, but you don't really have to. If you die you'll respawn at the start.

The generation happens in moderately sized rooms and every room has only one entry and one exit point. Some walls get further removed inside the rooms get removed. So, you don't really get lost. But, the doors are locked and you need to open them, so sticking to a wall doesnt help much.

I'm completely overhauling the level generation in the game.

After receiving some criticism for the capsule image I went back to the original top-down view as it's easier recognisable.
