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 !

@wawe @games Nice, congrats!
Congratulations, completing a game and getting it out the door is no mean feat!
Thank you!
Well done š„³. I wish you all the best
Good luck!
Thanks!
Awesome work. Out of curiosity, what engine did you use and how was your experience with it?
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.
Hooray and congratulations! Thatās quite an accomplishment.
@wawe @games Bought!! And congratulations, it looks sweet!
congrats!, bought because of the linux support
It works out of the box on steamdeck.
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
Ok.
Two things I noticed : The green blob appears semi-transparent on the screen score, but not in game. When the powerups appear, there is a square appearing from one or two frame at the center of the level.
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!
I will once on my computer.
And it could be fun to have a semi transparent blob in game too.
I like how it looks, I bought it and will try it later. Best of luck!
For anyone who enjoys seeing how the sausage is made, OP also has some devlogs up on YouTube, Iāve been following for a little while. youtube.com/@PaahtimoGames
Congrats on the release!
And cleared from my wish list, Iāll check it out when I get home. Nice work!
Thank you! Hope you enjoy the game! Leave a review if you have any feedback or want to give it boost for steam algorithm :)
Donāt worry, steam reviews will fix that.
Jk congrats on the game! Canāt wait to check it out
You got rid of imposter syndrome? Like, for everyone?
We found the universe simulation devā¦

Iāll get a few hours in and leave a review for sure! Also, thanks for making it Steam Deck compatible.
Thank you and no problem! Steamdeck is one of my favorite consoles!
God for you chasing a dream, making people happyā¦ Good for you!
Thank you! After years of working on corpotate job, I wanted to do something that I have always dreamed!
Congratulations on your game release!
That Mushy guy looks really cute. Hope to see more games in Mushy universe š
Thanks you! We will see :D.
interesting
Great game. May I add some ideas of improvement?
Otherwise very entertaining. I left a positive steam review. Good job.
That looks awesome man! Congrats!
Bought, will review after I play it in a bit.
Did you posted in lemmy.world/c/linux_gaming@lemmy.ml and lemmy.world/c/linux_gaming ? As it is a native linux mode, if I understood correctly, you could post there too. And in gamedev communities too.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesnāt work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml, !linux_gaming@lemmy.world
Thanks for sharing! I will post there as well in the future!
@wawe
Just bought and played it and had a lot of fun! I love the frequent powerups and the variety of the monsters. The first time I saw the toad was truly terrifying! Lol. I'd love to see some kind of powerup that helps with arial enemies. Maybe the plants can shoot upwards, too? Or you can? Or a flying plant? Or a second bullet that goes up at 45 degrees? Anyway, well worth the super low asking price. Looking forward to playing more! It works perfect on the #SteamDeck, too!
