Admire these indie games off Twitter

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 dramatic skies, a body-surfing game I cannot help but suspect is not actuallyStarfield, and the fanciest interactive toilet I have ever seen in a video game. Check out these attractive and interesting indies, and many more!

We’re told this is Starfield and definitely not Super Buff HD (coming to Steam, with a demo there now) and yet:

Interactive toilets are a staple of immersive sims butRetroSpace(coming to Steam) is just taking the piss:

🪩🚽 Yes, we have studied in-depth what public toilets were like in the 70s to provide a fully authentic experience. (very WIP!)Better with sound!…and stick around till the end! 😉#screenshotsaturday#retrospace#immersivesim#horror#scifi#fps#lowpolypic.twitter.com/89qxgZ4Ar8

I’m still not sure what Ryan Corniel’s real-time puppet experiments are for (possibly some sort of show?) but until I know they’re not for games, I’ll keep posting:

I have way too many puppet experiment videos. Here’s another one. Mouth tests…. and realizing the head is too heavy.#screenshotsaturday#UnrealEngine#RealTimepic.twitter.com/WH5BE6nRHN

Fantastic physics fun and delightfully destructive violence inEpic Hero Game(coming to Steam):

Adepts Arena also offers geologic violence:

Ok this time It kind of sucks the game is about the Earth element and not about fire, because I want to burn them to ashes.Tell me what you think of the sound effects and think of a name for them#indiedev#indiegames#gamedevelopment#IndieGameDev#gamedev#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/VzaYhqohzT

I don’t know how I feel about a spider having the powers and proportional strength of a Spider-Man in platformerA Webbing Journey(coming to Steam):

Testing my swinging skills in our new canyon area for#screenshotsaturday. What do you think? 🤔#gamedev#indiedev#indiegame#indiegamedev#spider#swingpic.twitter.com/AguAul56qE

Parkour! And… lightning claws? Curious to see what this prototype might grow into:

This is indeed a pretty swamp in paper-folding puzzler Paper Trail (coming to Steam):

Isn’t this the prettiest swamp you’ve ever seen? 🥺#ScreenshotSaturday#indiegame#madewithunity#indiedev#IndieGameDevFrom our new game, Paper Trail 📜🚶🏻‍♀️pic.twitter.com/R2Os8WQ6Zz

A cheeky peek in Miniatures (coming to Steam):

I believe that this game (which I’ve posted before) still doesn’t have a name, though I cannot believe that robots would be so rude to your hovershark:

Grabbycrab with arms can grab on to you and toss you off your ride if you are not careful. 🦀#screenshotsaturday#indiedev#IndieGameDev#gamedev#madewithunitypic.twitter.com/vp9oZYlIQV

And post-apocalyptic ocean survival game Full Fathom (coming to Steam) is just showing off now:
