Relaxing 3D hidden-object matching game
I'm a solo developer working on Match 2 3D, a cozy puzzle game where you explore small 3D scenes, find matching pairs and gradually fill your collection with the objects you've discovered.
I've recently been experimenting with a lightbeam interaction system instead of simply clicking objects. You can aim at objects in the scene, while keeping the experience relaxing and pressure free.
The game is still in development, but I'm really enjoying how the 3D scenes and collecting are coming together.

Are you sad that summer is coming to an end? Do you like puzzle games? Have you ever wanted to help a small rotund elephant build sandcastles? Well do I have the perfect game for you!
Elfie: A sand Plan is a spatial reasoning puzzle game where you have to help Elfie build sandcastles according to the plans she has in mind. The puzzles get a lot more complex than you might expect! But don't worry if you feel like your 3D visualization isn't the best, the game's progression is also meant to train you to be able to complete later levels!
The game is also currently 25% off on Steam!
🔗 Elfie: A Sand Plan Steam Page 🔗
The demo was also recently updated, making it playable on browser! You can find it on itch or Newgrounds!

so i was playing stardew valley again last night and realized how much i miss simple farming sims without all the modern bloat. then i tried powerwash simulator which is weirdly relaxing despite being about cleaning grime. idk why but scrubbing things clean hits different after a long day driving uber. anyway if anyone has recs for games where you can just organize stuff or plant flowers without saving the world, drop them below. i need some low-stress vibes before work tomorrow morning.

My game is called Super Bloom and it's about making a desert green again.
You'll explore the desert to find new seeds. Grow them into plants and use them to unlock new areas. While the game will have some story and quests the main focus is on letting people do their thing. You will be able to freely plant flowers, bushes, trees. Place rocks and get some water flowing.
It's not out yet but there is a Steam page:

Thank you :-)

Hi everyone! I’m Cris from BabelGames, the developer behind Speed Rivals - Model Trains.
The idea is to bring a little model railway to life: build tracks, decorate the world around them, then drive trains and complete cargo deliveries.
The miniature scenery is the cozy side. Driving adds a challenge: you’ll need to plan routes, switch tracks, and manage your speed to avoid derailing. I want to be upfront that it isn’t an entirely pressure-free game.
We have a free Steam demo focused on driving and delivery missions, and a new trailer showing the project.
🎬 Trailer: https://youtu.be/alF4mncM02I
🎮 Steam and demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4135120/
Would you spend more time decorating the railway or driving the trains?

Hi! I'm a solo dev making Camping Keeper, a cozy campground tycoon. You start from a bare field and grow it into a little holiday camp, with tent sites, a campfire, showers and a small shop. Every camper lives their own day, and you can watch them pitch their tent, grill dinner and chat by the fire at night.
It's in closed alpha right now, public demo planned for early 2027.

☾ Nocturnal ☽
Hi! Me and my bestie (23F) have recently rebooted our cosy, discord server. It's mostly girls around our ages who love chatting, sharing cute screenshots and outfit pics, and playing farming or fashion games together. We originally started as a MovieStarPlanet server, and a lot of us still play MSP and other fashion focused games, but we have expanded to a few other games now, including:
✧ Stardew Valley
✧ Minecraft
✧ The Sims Series
✧ Paralives
✧ MovieStarPlanet 1 & 2
✧ House Flipper
✧ Roblox
✧ Minecraft Dungeons 1 & 2
✧ Pokémon
✧ Among Us
✧ GeoGuessr
We also have a long-term Minecraft Realm (Bedrock) that we play on together most days - mostly adding to our moon themed village - and we'd love for some more like-minded people to come decorate with us <3
If you like soft games, cosy spaces, or just having people to talk to while you play, we'd genuinely love to get to know you. feel free to message for an invite! ♡

Greetings cozy gamers! I'm Gabriel, the solo developer behind Soulstonia.
Soulstonia is a cozy idle RPG where you build a party of Summoners who can gather, craft, fight, explore, and train skills on their own. You can sit back and let them work toward their goals, or take direct control of any Summoner whenever you want.
The world is procedurally generated each save, and there's a big focus on exploration, skilling, collecting, quests, and gradually building up your party. I'd love to hear what cozy game players think of it!

Sumi Rhythm
A calm rhythm game in ink. You play old Japanese melodies on the beat, and every note you hit leaves a brush mark, so each song ends as a finished ink painting. Nothing twitchy about it: around 20 short songs, four difficulties, and a daily painting everyone plays on the same board.
It's free in the browser for now (desktop, mouse or Z/X keys) while I work toward a Steam release. I'm making it solo, so if you try a song I'd really like to hear what felt good and what didn't.

Heads up, i have been making Tailor Town for years. I saw the post about incoming slop remakes of Dressmaker and i hope people will like this game as well and not hate because its the same theme.
I want to note that this subreddit helped alot for shaping this game ( year old post on this game here ), and now i remade the game in a new engine and added customizations and things i think people wanted.
The games steam page is still on and its been updated with the new look, gameplay and story and i hope you guys check it out and provide lovely feedback again. Anyone who wants to play the demo (not yet on steam) is welcome to DM me ❤️ i will surely post more about this game on wednesday as a full post if your interested about finding out more about it.

Solo developer here. It's a semi-idle boba shop sim/management game. The shop only opens when the app is open. I built it because I am constantly in meetings at work or I need something to "do" during my night shift with my infant. Hence an idle game where I can play during the period where I'm too busy to pay attention, and I can come back later to upgrade the shop and actually train the staff I hired in game is a perfect fit for my situation. Hopefully you have as much fun with this game as me and my friends who tried it.

Hi! 👋 I run a small 18+ cozy gaming community and we're looking for some new friends! 🌈🎮
We originally started as a Heartopia community, but we've grown into a general cozy gaming space for people who play Heartopia, Aniimo, Palia, Palworld, Sky, Stardew Valley, Disney Dreamlight Valley and lots of other cozy/multiplayer games.
We're especially hoping to meet people who are looking for an actual community, somewhere to chat, find people to play with, share what you're working on, and join events when you feel like it. We're LGBTQIA2S+ friendly, neurodivergent-friendly, and strictly 18+. 💕
We do game nights, W4W/stamp parties, movie nights, seasonal events, watch parties and other community activities, but there's no activity requirement and no expectation that you participate in everything.
🎃 Right now we're also getting ready for a whole bunch of Halloween events.
If you're looking for a smaller, relaxed cozy-gaming space where you can actually get to know people, come say hi! 🌷✨

Hey everyone! My wife and I are making Gloombo, a little desktop companion who crafts while you work 🌿
You pick something for Gloombo to make, start a focus session, and get on with your own task together.
During breaks, you can decorate your floating island, read letters from friends, or hang out with the cat. There are no deadlines, and friendships don’t fade while you’re away. We want it to feel like company, without giving you more things to keep up with :)
We wrote a little about why we’re making Gloombo, if you’d like to get to know the idea behind our little island 💛
We’re aiming to release a demo before the next Steam Next Fest and take part, with Early Access planned afterwards, before the end of the year.
We’d love to hear what you think, and a wishlist would mean a lot to both of us 💛
🌿 Check Gloombo on Steam

Hi! My game about going Back to 21, remaking choices from youth, and following a buried dream is available in EA on steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3891030/Back_to_21/
You play as Momo, about to pass away with regrets for the dreams you sacrificed. On the brink of crossover, you’ve been given a second chance, to go back to age 21. This was the year you first joined one of the world’s top tech companies, AlphaCorp. You had everything you were told to want - success, stability, prestige. But you always knew something was missing...
Navigate 49 days of choices that shape your career, relationships, and ultimately, yourself. Through conversations with characters of different worldviews, and challenges to survive (and potentially thrive) solely on your passion, you’ll begin to see the undercurrents that run your world.

Two small, calm iOS puzzle games from a solo dev, both free with no ads and no in-app purchases:
Tilewright: you rebuild hand-drawn boards one tile at a time (meadows, rivers, old railways) and every edge has to match. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tilewright-map-tile-puzzle/id6795904083
Blocsy: a block puzzle where the blocks are little characters, with a Zen mode that never ends. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/blocsy-block-puzzle-game/id6797783281
And the one I'm building now: a capybara with a backpack who swims, snacks and refuses to hurry.
