Tiny Brutalism – Thanks to HN it's on Steam

I had a hard time applying for steam with a new profile. I ended up annoyed and asked for a refund. I think steam officially got too big and the AI influx made things impossible for them to actually handle.

Bought it on itch. Nice little game for a quick break

Oh, that's cute. It's like Tiny Glade from hell. Those games are interesting studies because of the user interface. It's a 3D creation system where the interface is incredibly helpful and creation is fluid. You don't have to line up vertices or objects. It mostly does the right thing for you. Archimatrix was perhaps the ancestor of those games.

Hey! Can I contact you? I've been building a game for the past 3 months, and I'd really appreciate just a chat with someone who managed to pull it off.

This looks neat. Per the previous HN post, there's also a non-Steam version at https://placeholders.itch.io/tiny-brutalism . Time to build Geisel Library. Edit: Bought it and happy with it. Don't know if Geisel is actually possible because it's more guided than that, but I really like how fluid it feels.

Nice! All it needs is a way to sprinkle Grunts, Fiends, and Shamblers throughout and people can make their own QBJ levels. Quickly! To Claude!
