​Finally, I've my Eldritch - Lovecraftian arcade beat'em up available at Steam:

You can get the demo, or the full game here:

Store.steampowered.com

​​It has been a long and hard work, but as a solo developer, I'm quite satisfied with the result. And very important, during the development I have learned a lot of new things about game design and programming, that I an use on a possible sequel of the game.

If you like old school beat'em ups, give it a try, download the demo, and if you enjoy it, go for the full game!

Thanks a lot!

Why 2 profiles for the same engine here in IndieDB? And why both relate it as a proprietary licensed engine if documentation says it's an Open Source engine under LGPL v3 (at least the core and distribution parts, the parts that interest to indie developers)?

Game Develop isn't a proprietary licensed engine. it's an Open Source engine where the IDE is under GPL v3, the Core is under LGPL v3, and the extensions are under zlib/libpng license. So, please adjust the profile.
