So, my weirdo Stanley Parable inspired game finally made it to Most Wishlisted Steam Games. And I'm pretty sure a lot of you are to blame... (lemmy.world)

Hello guys, I’ve noticed a lot of people here are hungry for more games like the Stanley Parable. After playing the O.G. game and the Deluxe edition I’ve found myself wanting more of this. More of these meta, narrator led, weird humour games! I started work on my called Do Not Press The Button (To Delete The Multiverse). You can check it on Steam and give a wishlist if you want to encourage the development.

Anyway the other day I'm randomly checking Steam Most Wishlisted games and DNPTB is on there! How wild is that?

Wishlisted.

Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Thank you! Legend of the game :)

Merry Christmas

What, no this is not acceptable. It's flaming October, we haven't even had Halloween yet, you can't be wishing people merry Christmas yet.

Merry Xmas

Currently enjoying the demo. I've definitely wanted more nonsense like this in gaming.

One simple thing to fix is widescreen FOV, which is fortunately trivial. Simply add the following lines to Engine.ini in the config files and it should handle any screen width just fine:

[/script/engine.localplayer]
AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV

Love me straightforward films like that. Just good old fashioned bug killing, no fancy satire or any kinda of stuff like that

[–] [email protected] 43 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Certainly no underlying political message.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Definitely not, I've seen some liberal suggestions that Buenos Aires was an inside job, but it's all bull

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Bug rocks don't melt steel beams

no fancy satire

🤣

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

Upward and onward!

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I can't wait to not press that button.

Or maybe I'll press it, not sure yet.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

You know damn well the very first thing you'll do is press it.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I have been following it for a long time. Congrats

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's insane to read that someone is interested in something I'm making, thank you so much :)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

💜

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

First time seeing this but you got me, now I really want to press that button. Why am I so easily manipulated?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

Hm, if you want try the demo, it's not the full game but a standalone level meant to mess with the player in ways they maybe don't expect.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The lemmings united!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

YES! Heroes of the modern age!

I guess I'll be the one to ask. Since we are on Lemmy...

Linux support?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

The Steam page just says Windows. ProtonDB has no reports.

However, there is a demo, so maybe someone can try it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

It'll most likely work through proton.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Congrats, just added another wishlisting! Maybe this was answered somewhere else already, but do you have any details yet on how well it will be playable on Steam Deck?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Completely playable.

As long as you don't push any buttons.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Unless they're doing something on a proprietary engine (which I highly doubt) , I imagine it's playable. I guess it also needs controller support to be "Steam Deck Compatible" but that's likely not an issue either.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Doesn't need direct controller support, just a suitable steam deck controller layout that works well I think.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I don't a Steam Deck but maybe I will get one at some point and optimize for it

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's awesome man! I'm super happy for you. I'll go ahead and add it to another wishlist. Unfortunately it will probably be a long time before I will be able to actually play it, but it is great to see you succeeding

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Thank you nontheless :)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What's the original picture there? I want to see the little guy's face!

Good advertising on your side

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So does the Steam backend tell you how many people have wishlisted a game?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Yes it does

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

guilty as charged. I played the demo a while back and I've been waiting patiently for the full version ever since

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I just wishlisted the fuck outta this bitch

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Loving the vibe of this comment :D
