RetroSpace(coming to Steam) does indeed have a hallmark of modern immersive sims: electrifying a puddle.

Testing electricity on Aurora 5. ⚡️🪲⚡️Still seems to work… 😄Wait for it!(super early test with obvious placeholder effects, but still looks pretty dope)#screenshotsaturday#immersivesim#indiedev#horror#fps#retrofps#pcgaming#RetroSpacepic.twitter.com/VHUkHtEJ72— RetroSpace (@RetroSpaceGame)January 14, 2023

I believe I’ve posted the duelling clip from this yet-unnamed detective game before but oooh look at the rest of this!

Have been working on my detective game for a year now, a quick recap of what I have done so far: dialogue/ investigation system, 3D model iteration, dueling system prototype.#screenshotsaturday#indiegames#IndieGameDevpic.twitter.com/BaTEGCCWUY— DumplingTurbo (@DumplingTurbo)January 15, 2023

I dig the style ofSilent Santicado(coming to Steam):

#SilentSanticadoI was worried that the cave section of Soddenwood Forest wouldn’t stand out enough since it just uses existing assets, but I actually really love how it turned out!Wishlist Silent Santicado on Steam!

The high-mobility Soulslikelike first-person shooterEnchain(coming to Steam) turned out to be very much not what I expected whenI played the Steam Next Fest demobut it is an interesting one, and this is an interesting… chaingun bullet tornado?

I’m a big fan of this looming:

How do you feel about this decorative battle going on in the background of your real turn-based battle in Whimsical Heroes (coming to Steam)?

First attempt to create skirmishes in background, to make the whole battle more epic!#screenshotsaturday#madewithunity#madewithspine#2d#indiegame#indiedevpic.twitter.com/BVdXQ0KkxD— Whimsical Heroes (@WhimsicalHeroes)January 14, 2023

Explore-o-craft-a-survival gameDeterminant(coming to Steamis a rare thing, a first-person game where you have two working hands and the ability to (gasp!) use both independently, at the same time:

Ambidexterity allows for both hands to use items. Now you can eat twice as fast! Controls now similar to Minecraft, left button attack, right button use.#determinant#screenshotsaturday#indiegamedev#gamedev#gamedevelopmentpic.twitter.com/Xjel1Fb96U— Khor Chin Heong (@koochy_rat)January 14, 2023

I don’t know what the game is, but this really makes me think of Realms Of The Haunting?

Downright obscene interplanetary imagery (?) in Un Regard Froid - Exophilie:

A grim gameshow in a prequel-o-demo for Strain (coming to Steam), an apocalyptic survival game which makes me think of a more survival-y Fallout 4?

STRAIN: The Undoing, a prequel and demo for STRAIN will be coming out very soon! Stay tuned!#indiegame#indiedev#gamedev#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/cuArEH4HMk— Lana Lux (making STRAIN) (@WTFLanaLux)January 14, 2023

Ooh I do like a good marble run! A fun idea for a chill building game, with potential for great noises:

More stylish violence from Mortal Sin (coming to Steam):

Spent a bajillion hours on this but now I can confidently say that two swords are indeed better than one⚔️#screenshotsaturday#gamedev#unity3d#mortalsinpic.twitter.com/bw79cPgr7N— Nikola Todorovic (@sonofslobodan)January 14, 2023

And lets close with a wee bug which I feel borders on being a feature:
