Hi everyone!! \o/\o/

I'm finishing up my first game! I like the cozy genre! I've realized that when I sit down to play a game, I just want to have some fun and relax, not get even more stressed, hehe.

So I decided to make a puzzle game, but with that same easygoing feeling that cozy games can bring.

Looking at the trailer, do you think the game gives off that relaxing, cozy feeling?

The gameplay is about fitting pieces onto a board. There's no time limit, and some puzzles have more than one possible solution. The game name is JUST A PIECE, already has a steam page, but I'm finishing to polish some things before launch.

If you want to take a look at steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5342700/Just_a_Piece/

I don't want it to be the kind of difficult puzzle game that stresses you out, but something you can take your time with and enjoy while listening to the game's music, a podcast, or even your favorite song.

What do you guys think? ^^

Hey everyone! I'm a solo indie developer from Malaysia, and my game Too Many Animals! is finally out on Steam!

Imagine a librarian sorting game, but with 300 cute animals instead of books! 🐱

Pick them up, throw them across the room, and reunite them with their families!

What's your favorite animal IRL?

AI Disclosure: AI was used only for localization. No generative AI was used to create game assets.

I’m an architect, and I’m making Patternbook, a game where clients write to you asking for a house. When I posted it here a couple of weeks ago, the top comment was “Man I’d be all over this if it was floor plans instead.” Fair point, so I've added them in!

Give it a try if you're interested - would greatly appreciate your input and II love seeing what people come up with.

There’s a free playtest on itch open right now until Sat Oct. 31st, for mouse or trackpad (not phones): https://arcadesquirrel.itch.io/patternbook

If you’d like to follow it on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5407220/Patternbook/?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=cozygames2

What kind of house would you want a client to ask you for?

And I'm obsessed! Yeah there's some indie game jank but the building took me by surprise by how good it is. Anyone else enjoy this one?

Hi everyone! After a long stretch of building, shredding and recycling, we finally have a date: Scraplings launches into Early Access on November 5, 2026.

Scraplings is a cozy, side-view factory and trade game. You build your factory in layers on top of an endless sea of trash. Belts, elevators and tunnels move everything around, and bulky waste slowly turns into something useful.

We're a small indie studio and this is our first game. We'll keep building it together with our players during Early Access, so feedback means a lot to us.

If it looks like your kind of game, a wishlist helps us a ton:

Happy to answer any questions in the comments!

Hi everyone! We’re AssurePath Games, the developers of Kettle Street, and we wanted to introduce our little town of Kettleby.

You move into a mostly empty flat, find work and gradually make a life for yourself. The jobs are playable: drive the number 12 bus, deliver parcels, serve customers at Café Rosa or pull pints at the Red Lion. Your wages go towards rent, furniture and making the flat feel like home.

Between shifts, there are neighbours to get to know, ducks to feed, a Saturday market and trips home for Sunday dinner. Mum also has opinions about your spending habits.

The town follows the real calendar, so autumn brings fallen leaves, pumpkins and Bonfire Night fireworks.

It’s available on Android, iOS & Steam coming soon. Your first in-game week is free, then there’s a one-time purchase to unlock the full game. No adverts or subscriptions, it plays offline and we have already added tons of player suggestions to the game since launch.

Find Kettle Street on Google Play

Happy to answer questions about the game and if you give it a try, we’d love to hear how you get on in Kettleby.

Hello! I'm the solo developer behind Savory Seasons: Brizmere. 

Long story short, I lost my fur baby earlier this year, and that's a big part of how Brizmere came to be.

Brizmere is a little town in the afterlife where animals get to grow up and become human. I like to imagine that if my little guy is somewhere out there, he's in a place like this, enjoying a warm, happy life of his own until we meet again.

I'd love to hear what you think. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.  I'm also bringing the game to a local game expo this December, so I'll get the chance to watch people play it in person and see what needs work.

Hi! I'm a solo dev making Gardenkin, a relaxed game about bringing an overgrown community garden back to life, bed by bed.

• Weeding is a little hands-on moment: drag the weeds out, swipe the aphids off and leave the ladybugs alone, they eat the aphids.
• Cooking is done by hand at the preserves table: peel, chop, stir, pour to the mark and bake. The first time a recipe shows you every step; after that you cook it from memory. There are nine dishes, from berry jam and pumpkin soup to apple pie and honey pears.
• Seven neighbours come back one by one. You carry the harvest to them yourself and build things together: Theo's shed, the old pavilion, a pier over the pond.
• Little helpers join in later: rabbits harvest ripe beds, a hedgehog takes the surplus to market and a frog waters the beds near the pond.
• Nothing is lost: no combat, no energy bar, no daily login, and crops never die. A forgotten bed just turns into compost.

It's in eight languages and coming to Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5454520/Gardenkin/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=cozygames

Which would you cook first: berry jam, pumpkin soup or apple pie?

I really liked Thrifty Business and I’ve had Sticky Business in my wishlist forever but I’m still not sure if I want it or not. Any suggestions?

So I was always wondering what "Tiny Glade, but you craft the sky" would look like. A game that flips the camera around and gives you full control over the horizon line and the literal atmosphere. Here's my attempt so far :)

Sunset Painter on Steam

Feedback is welcome! (I already know that it needs some trees)

I’ve tried supermarket together and the UI and organization drives me insane (re: needing to go back and forth for objects to organize the store) and doesn’t really have controller support. You can input controls for a gamepad but it’s really awkward.

for reference, I have a tremor and typically prefer using a xbox pro controller for my steam games and have some joint issues in my hands as well. I can do transactions in game with my mouse if needed, but for the main game I need controller support.

I tried the demo for better mart and liked it, don’t like that you can’t stack multiple things on the dolly (I’m a little meh that you have to take care of the crates yourself instead of them disappearing), but I DO like the ui and pretty much everything else and it was easy to use my controller until it came to using the register (which, eventually can have cashiers and I just switched to my mouse for the meantime which was fine, I just can’t do it for long). I also like that it has multiplayer but it’s not a deal breaker. I really liked that people asked for help (it was really funny when they would tell me they forgot what they needed or a dude asking me if I could see how big his arms are) and that they use carts and carrying baskets. I really like you can turn off cash transactions and turn them on for extra xp. the xp is a little addicting dopamine wise— definitely love the xp and unlocking things over time.

I noticed though that it doesn’t matter what I put out, everything is going to get sold anyway, and that’s a little frustrating since I have to replenish so much stock all the time.

I also have megastore simulator on my wishlist and it looks really good to me, but I don’t know how easy it is to use a controller (not steam deck) and there’s no demo. I like that you can stack crates and that there’s multiple departments and how the register is set up. Not crazy that you have to input the number for the credit card transactions, but that’s pretty typical in these. it wasn’t a thing in better mart and was really nice.

and of course there’s also supermarket simulator— no demo for that, either. I’ve seen the ui and it looks a little frustrating just because of how the grid works when setting things up and things not always lining up, and it’s really frustrating that there’s a lot of paid dlc, but I know it’s one of the top supermarket sim games. I do like that all tools are basically in your pockets instead of having to run back and forth with them like supermarket together. It also looks like it’s multiplayer? (can anyone confirm?)

I’m really not that interested in the card market game, just to note. I did also try leafy corner and it was super cute, in case there’s tiny ones like that one to try out.

I did look through the reddit btw and a lot of posts are pretty old and don’t go over the good and ugly of each game, just how they compare to each other. If anyone can provide quality of life features they’ve noticed in these i’d really appreciate it! hopefully this post will help other people w the same questions I have too :)

thanks!

Sorry for the confusing title; I just don't know a good way to describe it. I'm looking for a game where you do one thing over and over again, like mining, cleaning, fixing, exploring and collecting, etc. PowerWash Simulator is a good example of this. More examples are like the "tidy up " games and some incremental games. Mostly, I'm looking for something relaxing and satisfying. Thanks in advance!

Hey!

Hidden Capybaras with Orange is a series of hiddenobject games - a bit like those cat-finding games, but with capybaras instead! We also have nighttime levels where you can shining a light around. Everything is hand-drawn by an actual human being :D

The games were already available on Steam and Switch, and now, thanks to being selected for a GOG event with my new game, I also got the opportunity to release Hidden Capybaras on GOG.

Hope you'll enjoy them! :)

A silly and relaxing little incremental I'm working on were a little critter collects pencils, sharpens them, and makes shaving soup :)

Hi everyone! I've been making this little game on my own for 3.5 months, and today the Steam page finally went live.

You're a mother duck, and a storm has scattered your ducklings across the islands. Waddle, swim and glide around to find them, solve little puzzles, and lead them back home. No combat, no timer, nothing can go wrong.

I'd love to hear what you think! 💛

Hey friends, I developed this game and for achievement hunters its for best, easy collect achievements and listen music drive car collect radioactive object get chill and cozy :)

Hi cozy gamers! My wife and I are a small indie team, and we've been making Harvest Dice Profit, a farming game with a little twist: instead of growing ordinary crops, you grow dice and use their rolls to build up your farm!

We've just released our biggest update yet, and it includes some features we've been wanting to add for a while:

🌱 A Prestige system for long-term progression
🎲 More dice to discover and farm
⚙️ New AOE tools to speed up your farming
✨ Performance improvements for smoother gameplay

Making a game as a tiny team has been a learning experience, and it's lovely to see the game continue to grow through updates.

If dice farming sounds like your kind of cozy game, you can find it here:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4583230/Harvest_Dice_Profit/

Thanks for taking a look!

The game is CozyCatTree if you want to download it. Here's some info:

1. Ads every one minute but not too long

2. Tutorial is a little boring

3. I downloaded this on Android, I'm not sure if it's on PC

That's all Cozy Gamers!

Next Fest is over, but our demo is still free to play and we're continuing to update it. There's still a lot to improve and we've got a lot more features planned before release.

What's been recently added to the demo:

• Dig channels and irrigate your fields
• More character creation options
• Give gifts to villagers, each with their own likes and dislikes
• Enhanced graphics mode with water reflections and softer lighting
• Now in French, German, Spanish (Spain), Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese and Japanese

Give it a try and let us know if you have any feedback, we're constantly trying to improve the game and make it better.

In your guys honest opinion which is the better game? I’ll be playing on the switch and just want an enjoyable game. Thank you!

Hi! I'm the dev behind Spectrakin, a monster-taming RPG inspired by the GBA+DS Pokémon games and Digimon World. The core gameplay is centred around three key pillars:

• Team-building: Catch, train, and build a team of unique Spectrakin, with growth systems that influence their strengths in and out of battle, as well as their evolution paths.
• Adventure: Explore the diverse region of Eidolia, uncover the tragic history of the world, encounter strange elemental factions, and discover what lies beyond the boundary between worlds.
• Town development: Meet humans and Spectrakin on your journey, help them with their troubles, and convince them to join your town to unlock new facilities and upgrades.

Once a thriving civilisation, Eidolia was abandoned following a mysterious catastrophe that brought humanity's ambitions to an abrupt end. Now, generations later, people are slowly returning to its ruins, unaware of the secrets that still lie buried beneath them. As you explore in search of your missing brother, you'll piece together the events that led to Eidolia's downfall, and discover that the forces behind it may not be as distant as they seem.

Please consider following my Kickstarter page and hitting the "Notify me on launch" button if you're interested, it really helps me out! You can also wishlist on Steam.

A big accomplishment for our team of two making this and other games together. We do not use any gen AI and try to utilize our skills to create some fun and worth while experiences. We're the devs behind Too Many Toys! which was very well received and so we followed closely in it's footsteps to create an even cozier game and had 200 players online so far right after launch! 🎉

If you're looking to relax, you can organize over 4,000 items on our cute farm. Vegetables and fruits are scattered across the fields, tools are lying everywhere, flowers are piled up, eggs are rolling around, and even the animals are running freely. It's a big mess that needs cleaning up!

(There's even hidden collectables you can find for a surprise...)
