I go on Twitter to find indie games so you don’t have to
Every weekend, indie devs show off current work on Twitter’s#screenshotsaturdaytag. And every Monday, I bring you a selection of these snaps and clips. This week, my eye has been caught by games touching on chat around GTA 6 and Furiosa, along with spaceships, fungal horror, and the developer’s dog. Come admire all these attractive and interesting indie games!
Whilethe impending GTA 6 trailerhas everyone jazzed about palm trees and neon, you can tide yourself over until tomorrow with a jot from this procedurally-generated infinite city:
I’m working on some cool stuff, I promise, but in the mean time, enjoy these palm trees.#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/XftN8rI0Yi
The post-apocalyptic carfights ofFumes(coming to Steam) are engaging more explicitly with the #social #buzz #discourse:

Breachway(coming to Steam) understands the value of spaceships which look like sci-fi shotguns:
