Fishbowl is a title that I’ve seen in many game showcases, including but not limited to the Access-Ability Summer Showcase 2024 and Wholesome Snack 2025. Because of this, I am so happy to share that an early April release date has been announced for the heartfelt coming-of-age adventure game about isolation, friendship, and grief. It will be released for PC…
Curve Games and Patattie Games have announced that Wax Heads will be released this May. In the game, players head behind the counter of a struggling record shop. Here, they discover new music, connect with the local community, and help shape the store’s future. Wax Heads will launch for PC,…

Pathea Games has been busy: in addition to My Time at Sandrock, launching later this year, the developer now has another game launching this year. Let’s School is a charming low-poly sim-management game where players take on the role of a school principal trying to make their school the best…

This is the first annual Access-Ability Summer Showcase. I was pleasantly surprised to even hear that it existed, and in all honesty I’m honoured to cover such a strong selection of current and upcoming titles. While I wish I could give full coverage to every game mentioned, I honestly just…

For most, Summer Game Fest was the big event of the day. I watched it, but didn’t even bother covering it as a whole: there were like two things I was interested in. But following that is Day of the Devs, which is far more focused on artistic indie games…

Nightmare Reaper aims to be a blend of roguelike and nostalgic throwback to the “boomer shooter” era of Doom. In a sense, it succeeds. It is indeed a roguelike (with procedurally-generated levels and a need to start from scratch with each death), and it has the violence and manic action…

Who doesn’t like a freebie? Midnight Witch – the first project by Crimson Moon Studio – has released today, and the developers are giving it away for nothing. There’s no catch with that either. No DLC for characters or costumes. No microtransactions. It’s just a free game to add to…

Here we sit, two weeks away from Dordogne’s launch. The game both looks stunning and features interesting gameplay, and I’m excited to eventually get my hands on it. Set in the South of France, the game follows a woman as she explores the home in which she spent her childhood…

When you mash together Tamagotchi-style gameplay with RPG elements, you get Yolk Heroes: A Long Tamago. The goal is to raise elves to become heroes who save the land. It’s pretty cute, and should be rather relaxing too. The retro graphics and colouring make me super happy, there’s something familiar…

Toodee and Topdee (it’s a weird name but I kind of like it) combines 2D platformer and top-down puzzler into one unique game. In fact, the game started with the idea to merge those two different genres as a game jam prototype. They got great feedback, and Toodee and Topdee…

At first glance, it’s difficult to understand Ghostpia’s appeal. You place static screenshots, out of context, next to the breathtaking art of Otomate’s visual novels, the vivid energy of something like Danganronpa, or even independent efforts like Sweetest Monster or Corpse Factory, and it’s really hard to see why PQube…
