Hey! I just played the play test for Soulchain and was consistently blown away by its puzzle design and vibes. Really REALLY excited for this one now.

Here's what I had to say about @tophatstudios.bsky.social published Well Dweller during next fest. With a release this month I'm hyped as hell

September has begun, and with that here's the games I played over the past two months! Some really great entries in here. This has already been a good year for games, and now we reach the "avoid GTA" release window!

Star Wars Zero Company is pretty fun. My friends and I are playing the same character entirely differently. I'm really having a blast. Fun clip in the replies (Character spoilers for up to cycle 25)

You gotta play this game. I might replay it through on hard mode since I just loved it so much. Just a really great 8-ish hour rog It has heart, jokes, great characters and some just really phenomenal music. Give it a shot!!

By the way, I think everyone should try weird demos, even if they think they might not like it. EMUUROM is certainly in the running for the best game I've played this year and I almost completely skipped over it due to some word of mouth i heard and not "getting" it from the trailer.

Now having beaten the full game (and a majority of the post game content) this really lived up to my hype. I was worried that the demo showed too much since the "main game" content is a little light, but the breath of challenge levels easily made up for it. A must play for precision platformer fans

Here's another upcoming indie game I'm extremely looking forward to, the demo impressed me so much I went out and bought the developer's previous game Crypt Custodian. Go play this right now, it's a Metroidvania with some positively gorgeous and grim art.

This is the main reason I made this account. I think we need to talk about what we love, and share it with people. I love games so much and I want to experience them and share them.

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

I've been playing EMUUROM for the past week and it has blown me away. it has its hooks in me, and I can't stop thinking about it, I'm nearing 20 hours and I there's still so much more to see and do. if you like metroidbranias and you're hungering for more, this is a MUST BUY. I can't get enough.
End screen for EMUUROM, end time 19h 33minutes

EMUUROM is a non-violent puzzle platformer in the metroidvania sub-genre. It really is stand out and I NEED more people to play it so i can talk to someone about it

If you liked Animal Well, especially in how it had layers of puzzles hiding in plain sight, you gotta play this one.

Cryptic nonviolent exploration like in ANIMAL WELL... with a scanner like in METROID PRIME... And yet, this game is like no other. EMUUROM - Document an ancient paradise before it's lost forever.

This game is beautiful, scary, heartbreaking, funny. But ultimately, it is a love story. Please do yourself a favor and play this one. It deserves your time

This is not close the announcement I'm most hyped about from these showcases. Cassette Beasts is fantastic and Bytten has never let me down

"The Remake of The End of The Greatest RPG of All Time" moved me in a way I wasn't prepared for. I was bundled up on the couch wanting to play something bite sized, but instead I was met with layers of mystery and a slathering of sincerity I can't say much because spoilers, but please play it!

I was really inspired to write something upon playing Yacht Club's newest release Mina the Hollower. Its sense of difficulty and unique lives system made me feel completely in control of my fate, and the punishments felt deserved. Here's some yapping I did about it!

Playing Mina the Hollower really has me inspired, I've decided to pull the trigger and write some thoughts about it! Hopefully this is a fun journey 🤞🏽
