Hi, I'm #NewHere
I'm an indie game developer, and I just released “Little Brats!”, a fun casual PvP action game where you play a kid having fun in a playground.
I'll be posting some artwork, technical stories, behind the scenes, etc. Stay tuned

Hi everyone! I'm Detha, a new member of Beige Party-goers with #AuDHD from #Indonesia, #TootSEA.
I'm currently in my late-20s and a #polyglot — I speak three languages fluently: #Indonesian, #Javanese, and #English. I've also been learning #Japanese, currently trying to memorise Hiragana and Katakana letters.
I work in #education as a high school #teacher, teaching #ALevel #mediastudies. I'm married to a fellow teacher, but he teaches primary English.
I love playing #videogames, despite me being quite bad at it lol. Some of my all-time favourites include #ResidentEvil, #DevilMayCry, and #TheSims. I play #GenshinImpact and #HonkaiStarRail as well. I also like being a backseat #gamer and watch other people play games (mostly my husband and YouTubers). My favourite video game genres are #RPG, #simulation, and #casual.
Other than that, I love reading #manga a lot. Currently I'm making it my mission to read older mangas from my childhood, like #DetectiveConan and #Hellsing. I like reading in general, just not "actual books" haha — my attention span can't handle it.
The music that I listen to are mostly the loud stuff, but my favourite genres are #Hyperpop, #Metalcore, and #Hardstyle EDMs like #Trap and #Dubstep. I actually have a #tattoo of #AvengedSevenfold on my left forearm!
I guess that's what I can think of for my #introduction for now. I have a lot more scattered interests though, so you'll be seeing more of it on my account.
Thank you to @theropologist for accepting my request to join this instance, and nice to meet you all! Beige-bless
Wow, I get to redo my #introduction

- The current love of my life, #Dimension20 (and #ttrpg in general)
I'm looking for folks with shared interests to interact with. Hit me up!
Jan 7, 2023 - Day 7 - NewPlay Bonus Review
Total NewPlays: 10
Game: Gardens Inc. 2: The Road to Fame

In a world where game sequels can take years to be released, it's a breath of fresh air to see a sequel released [checks notes]... 58 days later.
OK, it's a casual game, and they seemingly decided to cash in on the popularity of the first one. The sequel suffers from the same "fixed resolution forced to full screen" as the predecessor, but does have a couple of small quality of life changes that improve upon the formula.
Same frustratingly addictive gameplay loop that keeps me coming back to replay the level to try and beat the clock and get the gold award, but I consciously made the decision to not let it eat up my entire Saturday.
Again, the fixed-resolution-forced-full-screen is the only thing keeping this from an "excellent".
4: Good
Edit: In an odd twist, there are two more sequels (3 & 4), but not available on Steam, only through Big Fish Games, or on mobile. 1 & 2 aren't available on mobile. I thought they felt like mobile games, and they are *very* suited to the iPad screen.
Oh no...

I've looked at this game sitting there in the 2017 group a few times, and bounced each time.
"A gardening game?" Another day. Today was that day. It's an almost nine year old game; classed as a "casual strategy" game, when they go into 800x600 and get blown up to full screen, with no options for high res, you know you're going to have a bad time.
I figured I'd suffer for the 15 minutes, and then write up the review.
[4 hours later]
I can't believe it sucked me in like that.
It's got a typical casual/mobile game cheesy storyline, with staged levels feel. You're running against a clock, and you've got to fix a few things in each garden, and you need to do some upgrades, and managed resources, and I'll just play this level one more time to beat it.
My initial rating for Gardens Inc. is:
4: Good
The only thing that stopped this cartoonish casual game getting an "Excellent" was the low-res graphics and resolution shift.
