The time has come, immsim sickos... 🪩!!! RETROSPACE IS OUT NOW !!!🪩 You're just a simple janitor, but it's up to you to save humanity from cosmic madness! > Immersive, disco-punk, space-horror, stealth-shooter, eurojank, janitor core > Grab the game now on Steam and consoles!
Buried Treasure changed my life - doubt I'd be working on game#2 if it weren't for the 'holds up against Prey' headline. A small contribution to keep a distinguished, artful and amusingly controversial (or controversially amusing?) video game writer type person in business, you'd be mad not to.
Tell me what you most want from Buried Treasure. What would make you more likely to give $2 or more a month to help the project of giving attention to unknown or under-known indie games? I know it's changed dev's lives, because they tell me so. I want that to keep happening. buried-treasure.org
Ambrosia Sky by @softrains.bsky.social is out of Early Access with both acts complete, and this combination of Prey and PowerWash is a unique, gorgeous and compelling time. buried-treasure.org/2026/09/ambr... Please support Buried Treasure from $2 a month: www.patreon.com/c/buriedtrea...
Sick of games that just have you swinging a sword at goblins? Well, here's a few RPGs that take things in a *freaky* new direction. youtu.be/E8wakwyT0ZQ

Convention banner I put together for DIE in a Dungeon. Yes, I'll finally be selling my own games in person. Yes, I'm terrified. Yes, you can save me the hassle and go get it online instead 😅 #boardgameart #DUNGENERATOR #DIEinaDungeon
Elementallis by AnKae is a truly stunning Zelda-like 2D RPG, and I cannot believe this isn't already a massive hit. Let's see if we can change that! Repost this! buried-treasure.org/2026/05/elem... Help Buried Treasure with the resources to unearth these games: www.patreon.com/c/buriedtrea...
Low stakes frustration, but it's bothering me how the Immersive Sim tag on Steam has been rendered absolutely useless by the amount of [Whatever] Store Simulator games tagging themselves with that, rather than the Deus Ex, Thief, System Shock inspired games. A tag flooded by hundreds of clones.
What's this?! It's only the new PROT trailer video. youtu.be/5IzWCFk4nMs #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #robots #prot

Quick reminder that I'm an accomplished mock reviewer, trusted by lots of hit-making indie publishers including Devolver and 11 Bit Studios, as well as AAA folks I can't name cos I'm good with an NDA. If you reckon some of your followers could make use of my services, a repost is always appreciated!
A really good indie one is Ctrl Alt Ego, which has SO many ways to solve problems. And also a huge achievement list for doing absolutely unhinged stuff. You can apparently complete the whole game without even unlocking the jump button. The developer tested some absolute pervert stuff.
