This is an incredibly special game. Everything you're hearing about it is true. And I'm just really grateful for the time @katerblossom.bsky.social have gotten to play it together!! So many fun memories are gonna be made between friends in this game 🥹

We haven't finished the game just yet, and we plan to cherish every single minute of it, but we put together our impressions and favorite memories of the time so far: nosmallgames.com/2026/08/take...
It's August now. Does that mean I need to shift all my non-podcast game playing to indie GOTY contenders? I still haven't even touched Mina, Zero Parades, MIO... surely I'm forgetting some

This is my plea: I am begging indie game devs and marketers to please create both a light and dark version of your game's logo The backflips I have to go through to make a light-only logo work on a white background 🥲

On a particular day in August last year, many games and demos released at the same time along with a Nintendo Indie World and generally lots of indie news. I think August 6th is shaping up to be a similarly important day for indies. www.patreon.com/HonestIndies...
