Loki's Revenge out now in Early Access: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2936750/Lokis_Revenge/

owlgame.dev
Updates for my pomodoro idle game:
- UI shows what train (or work) cycle you're on
- Gold is earned while in a train cycle
- Gold can be spent to purchase a new cosmetic
- Can't really tell in this video, but the window becomes always on top and flashes white until you focus it

It's coming together! Cleaned up the UI a bit, added a shop screen for cosmetics, and added some little Z's during the breaks.

Pretty fun to have something come together so quickly because of its simplicity and my experience level.

I used a bunch of Chevy's fonts in Loki's Revenge! They're great, you should get the pack!

Been taking a break from working on Loki's Revenge to make a little pomodoro desktop timer toy. Quite refreshing to work on something new after staring at the same game for nearly 2 years! #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Incredible, thank you for doing this!

This is a screenshot from Loki's Revenge, my Norse survivors-like that just launched this past Monday!

Not sure if it’s just me or my phone or something but looks like images broke?

The reviews and player feedback on the Steam forums for Loki's Revenge have been really positive, helpful, and constructive.

Feels really good to have made something people are enjoying their time with, and really lucky that I've got such a nice group of players so far!

Looking back at old screenshots of Loki's Revenge, wild how far the game has come over the 1.5 years I've spent on it. I started in November of 2024, finally shipping Early Access in June 2025.

The game has changed a ton both visually and mechanically in that time! Biggest game I've ever made solo.

Full Next Fest results are in - Loki's Revenge is now sitting at nearly 1000 outstanding wishlists

This completely exceeds my expectations heading into launch. Huge thanks to everyone who played the demo and wishlisted!

If you haven't yet, demo is still live! store.steampowered.com/app/2936750/...

For the Loki's Revenge demo in #SteamNextFest Odin is finally playable!

He's a "glass cannon" character. His ability summons Geri and Freki, his legendary wolf companions. They run across the screen dealing high damage.

Play the demo and wishlist here: store.steampowered.com/app/2936750/...

Can you tell where Day 1 of Next Fest is?

Looks like Loki got 136 net new wishlists on Day 1 of Next Fest. Small potatoes compared to other games, but that's a huge bump for Loki. My expectations were really low, so this is a really nice surprise.

Loki's Revenge will be in this upcoming Steam Next Fest starting June 9th!

The long-awaited Odin will be playable in the demo during Next Fest!

Here's the Steam charts for the same period.

The UTM reported WLs and the actual count is different. My avg WL/day is 1, so I'm pretty confident it can be attributed to mobile users not being logged in when they click the ad, then searching manually on desktop to WL

Here's some screenshots from the reddit ad campaign itself. I targeted subreddits that were in the same genre niche, stayed away from big ones

Also targeted non-US regions a few days into the campaign. Didn't localize the ad.

One thing I'm doing differently with Loki's Revenge is having all of the maps be hand-designed, and filled with secrets and set pieces. One of the types of secrets you can find are special boons - once collected, they're added to the broader level-up pool

Writing up a postmortem on a Reddit ad campaign I ran for a week for Loki's Revenge

Main goal was to validate if I've got something people are actually interested in or not. Turns out I outperformed average campaign stats?

53 net wishlist gain, $0.73 cost per wish

Loki's Revenge has officially hit 350 wishlists! It may be small, but it's still wild to me that so many people have seen the game and are interested in it!

If you're not one of the 350, wishlist and try the demo here: store.steampowered.com/app/2936750/...

If you go the commissioned route, I’m happy to connect you with my artist that did the Loki’s Revenge capsule. Super reasonable rates, super talented dude.
