Sunny Rads Asks: 

Were there any games of note you didn’t get to that you intend to keep an eye on?

Farmer pete

Was Kristala included at all in the next fest? I got the notice recently that it is available in early access now. Have you dove into that at all yet to see how it is?

BuzzKillington Asks:

The Rogue Prince of Persia came out recently in early access (new game from the Dead Cells devs), What would be your pitch for a Triple A IP to be made by an indie dev? So like which IP, what dev would you choose for this project.....I'll go weird with this one, an Annapurna game in the Star Fox Universe, it would be like an artsy side story mission where you play as the different characters just off doing some regular random tasks for people and building your team’s relationship up before the next mainline adventure happens. Colton

Do you see peripheral based rhythm making a come back if there was an indie passion project? I just miss DDR

Steve takes a stroll down memory lane with a NEW movie making sim, Blockbuster Inc, to rekindle The Movies feelings of 2005. Andy compiled a MASSIVE list of MUST HAVES from Summer Games Fest, Future of Play, The Devolver Digital, and more! Matt dives back into a favorite, Patch Quest (which you should be playing, by the way).

We’re talking hidden gems, breakout hits, and a whole lot of goofy categories because, honestly, why not? Expect heartfelt praise as we show some serious love to the games that made our year. But don’t get it twisted, every single one of these titles deserves your time, attention, and probably your hard-earned cash. Support indie games, people! They’re the lifeblood of this industry, and without them, we’d all be way less cool.
