Don't have a steam page yet, but here's some footage of Spectral Express, a cozy resource management train driving game (where there will eventually be ghosts)!

Sounds are in! I forgot to turn the music on, but the game already feels so much better with all the lil noises in place. A bit of balancing left needed, but overall done!

The detachable arm in #DekaDuck is your best and more versatile weapon!

Is this the spiritual successor to Mega Man that we have been waiting for?
