With how hit and miss big devs have been for the recent forever bit of time, indies are always fun to look at. So...
Are there any indies you're hyped for that you would wanna share? Why are you interested in them?

I'm personally really hyped for FriendOS, it looks like a really fun/cute party game with an aesthetic I absolutely dig.

Fun landscaping architecture fact #2: Did you know that during renaissance Italy, there was a trend for the nobility to install hidden fountains that would be activaited via a lever? Their whole purpose was to splash water on unsuspecting visitors.

I really need to keep up with indie titles because I feel like most of the new AAA releases just aren't doing anything for me aside from like RE9, but that's because it's RE9 and I am legally obligated to be hyped for it.

Where are you all keeping up-to-date on indie games?

I'm really excited for Big Walk. It looks like it's got a lot of potential for cooperative fun, with the right friend group.

I am not much of a gamer, but I used to play the underrated Shadow Hearts series back when I had a PS2 and I'm hoping Penny Blood, a spiritual successor by the same devs, pushes through. It's an RPG with a unique alternate history setting moxed with fantasy/comedy-horror elements and a strange ensemble cast like the original games.

Unfortunately the game still doesn't have a publisher to fund it and has some bleak prospects. They have an associated spin-off game Penny Blood: Hellbound (more of a casual roguelike than a story-heavy RPG) and novels expanding on the world that I also enjoyed, and I hope the main game gets through the gutter.

Habromania!!! Admittedly I haven't played the demo yet, but I absolutely love the art style and gameplay based on the teasers. Plus, I love pretty much anything Wonderland related, so this game feels very much made for me.

i am also super excited for big walk! it looks like a lot of fun and i love how the characters look. and i'm also super excited for 500 caliber contractz, the art for that game is incredible.

another indie game that i really love but is already out and i don't see a lot of people talk about is vividlope. it feels very dreamcast/ frutiger aero? and it's so easy to just pick up and play

I am very excited about Traveling At Night by Weather Factory. Their games occupy a very special place in my heart. They are very well written, mysterious, really unapproachable by design when it comes to world building. Art is up my alley and overall fantastic experiences

Sucker for love: crush landing

I quite enjoyed the first two sucker for love games in the series (rewatching ManlyBadassHero's lets plays i especially like how the second one had more going on with the story than just "date girl to win") and ngl from what we're shown in the demo, this new one's gonna be a fun one too!! Hheileigh (i think that's how her name is spelled) seems like such a cute character, she's definitely beat ln'eta as my fave girl in the series and i'm interested to see how the game is going to tie itself in with the rest of the universe since the main gameplay loop doesn't seem to be based around rituals anymore (plus i just NEED to see how hheileigh and dude's relationship develops considering hheileigh is written as being child-like and i'm concerned that it's gonna be a "born sexy yesterday" type situation....also i'm lowkey hoping that in the final game they remove that one ending where it's implied dude SAs hheileigh in her meteorite form and dies)

As someone who watches MBH a lot, agreed! (though im probably just going to watch their letsplay, im not good with most horror games...) The story is definitely interesting and got me to laugh multiple times
