Admire these interesting indie games!
Every weekend, indie devs show off current work on Twitter’s#screenshotsaturdaytag. And every Monday (well, Tuesday now, because we were off yesterday), I bring you a selection of these snaps and clips. This week, we admire vast landscapes, a horrible glob of dog, weird offices, giant monsters, and so many more interesting and attractive indies. Check ‘em out!
Striking landscapes fromHyper Light Breaker(coming to Steam):
A good dramatic zoom-out in puzzle-platformerBionic Bay(coming to Steam, with a demo there now):
Testing some epic zooming. I like when something looks nothing particular at first but then changes into something dramatic. A bit like first trailer for Fallout 3 or when Neo wakes up from the Matrix ❤️💙#indiegame#pixelart#madewithunity#gamedev#scifi#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/3fKduL8jVD— Juhana Myllys (@JuhanaMyllys)April 8, 2023

Hey Dreamer, just a word of advice. If you get lost in the Forest……you better run. Fast.#screenshotsaturday#metroidvania#pixelart#indiedev#indiegame#gamedev#ドット絵#像素艺术#픽셀아트pic.twitter.com/j3RZX2qbjb— Being&Becoming (@being_becoming)April 8, 2023

The Milk Lake(coming to Steam) is still so enjoyable to watch:
from the start i wanted character motion that was precise, realistic and responsive enough to be a core game mechanic itself. v excited about how good this feels with that goal in mind.+a little combat!#screenshotsaturday#indiedev#gamedev#madewithunity#unity3dpic.twitter.com/F5hJsWPjL0— The Milk Lake (@TheMilkLake)April 8, 2023

Speaking of offices, I can confirm that MiddleManagement’s employee-gobbling glob is how business works:

I am glad that Xenotilt (coming to Steam), the sequel to excellent pinball game Demon’s Tilt, looks just as lively:

A bit of platforming movement tech in Paintvale (demo available on Itch):

A bad time in cooperative survival horror Whisper Mountain Outbreak (coming to Steam):

I strongly believe in attacks filling the screen, like this inSurvivors of the Dawn:

I feel this alien’s attempts to rewild the Earth could benefit from a slightly more delicate touch in sandbox smash ‘em up From Ashes, Bloom (coming to Steam), but you cannot deny they’re getting results:
