Couple of pics from the recent Blackshift “lore update” for #ScreenshotSaturday.
Until now, Blackshift has been pretty abstract, but now interested players can hunt for lore tablets to learn more about the game world.

1. Steam sales
If you haven't participated in a Steam sale, try it! There are themed sales that your game has to fit in with, but also unthemed seasonal sales like the Winter Sale where anything goes.
YMMV, but I've found this to be a good way to get a revenue boost for a couple of weeks.

The other thing I released semi-recently is Hapland Trilogy, which you might enjoy if you liked those infuriating Flash puzzles from the 2000s that didn't give you any help or tell you what to do. It's on Steam.

Recently released a big update for my puzzle game Blackshift.
