Weekend update: I’m shipping a darker “Dune” desert map variant for Alien Grounds.
Same arena fights, but a moodier sky and harsher silhouettes.
Does this vibe read “Alien Grounds” to you?

Black-and-white photo of a calm fjord with rippling water in the foreground, steep mountains on both sides, and low clouds hanging over the peaks.

Doubtful Sound - boat wake in quiet water, heavy sky.

Bright daytime desert scene, hard sun, warm highlights, deep blue sky.

Same scene in dark lighting with muted highlights and heavy shadows.

Same scene (cyberpunk alien place), two moods. Which tells a better story to you - Day or Dark?
#photography

Wow. That sky is alien.

Perfect!

Same - it’s like a perfect little wave pool, even on a rough day. I haven’t been to Clovelly Beach - I mostly surfed around the Northern Beaches.

Sunset over Piha tidal lagoon, New Zealand - waves curl into a round sandy basin between dark rocky cliffs, with dramatic clouds and sun rays over the ocean.

Piha tidal lagoon - the ocean poured in like a bowl.

Congrats on the Steam page - this looks super polished. I always think I’ll make an educational game too, and somehow it turns into a shooter or horror. Kurt Vonnegut vibes.

First two robots down - and the run has barely started.

Thinking about Exit Dream 2 - feedback welcome.

Did you play Exit Dream (or bounced off it) - what should ED2 lean into:

More dream logic (less real-world logic)?

What frustrated you in ED1?

Should ED2 be spoiler-resistant with more variation?

Exit Dream - official 23s trailer.
A short, free surreal puzzle-horror where dream logic is the point.

Totally agree. Faking gameplay/demos to crowdfund is straight-up fraud. AI just makes it easier.

A powerful new tool arrived overnight. We can’t ignore it. But we’re still learning how to use it properly.

Nah. That’s just the warm-up.

Post your cleanest horde-delete clip (any FPS) - I’ll repost a few favorites.
Here’s mine from Alien Grounds.
