Skateboarding games, while fun, have two main issues: one - it can be tough for newbies from the get-go. Two: the places you skate in seem pretty barren. Enter OlliOlli World, a super-bright and cheery (albeit weird) game where you pull off skateboarding tricks for points on a 2D plane. Simple gameplay and controls, but its course design and cha...
We played Dreamscaper during its Early Access phase, and it was pretty sweet and melancholy in its delivery and mix of action RPG roguelike combat.

I...

Indonesian developer stellarNull is making a game similar in c...

Platform(s): PC (Version played), Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One Genre: 2D Shooter Tribute To Metal Slug, But With A Goose Sometimes, simplicity is the best policy.

Platform: PC Genre: Isometric action-adventure bug mecha-piloting chillax odyssey We know that mechas and mechs are huge lumbering walking death-dealing machines. However, the indie action-adventure game Stonefly (made by the same folks behind Creature In The Well) might change that perception. In this world where humans are Lilliputian in scal...
Platform: PC Genre: 2D Action Game At first glance, the Malaysian-made indie 2D platformer The Company Man starts off jovial and satirical.

Platform: PC Genre: Outspoken adventure game for your extended lunch break If you were to rate the indie title Say No! More just on its length alone, it gets a failing grade. The adventure game will take you at least two hours or so to beat in one playthrough. Despite its length, Say No! More wears its "one word, many languages" linguistic arca...
