Check out these attractive and interesting indie games!
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 swish parkour and grappling hook movement, spaceships in Hell, lots of pretty plants, and some straight-up trash. Come have a look!
Honestly, if I had parkour skills like the animator of Thirsty Suitors (coming to Steam), this is how I’d come downstairs in the morning:
Jala woke up like this every morning in Thirsty Suitors game. I can’t do that early in the morning unless I didn’t sleep the night before#thirstysuitors#screenshotsaturday#videogamesIRLpic.twitter.com/5uWBBMlNIw
What swish swinging!
Quaternions were the secretof omnidirectional movement all along.And also an entirely custom total force calculator.#gamedev#unity3d#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/H8qNxID5XM

Intense Hellish spaceship shooter violence:

I want to run my hands across the backgrounds of puzzle-platformerSeedlings(coming to Steam):

And I want to bury my face in this foliage on the right:
Trying different things for the vegetation, but not quite sure yet 🤔#screenshotsaturday#UnrealEngine5pic.twitter.com/1VKNJHgljL
And the hoof fungus on this witch in card battlerPrincess Hunter(coming to Steam) certainly is, ah, eyecatching:
New enemy. Do you like it?#princesshunter#monstergirl#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/mL3YqXHabW
Things would have gone a lot better in Yharnam ifBloodborne’s hunters had the arsenal of roguelikelike shooter Voidborn (coming to Steam):

A terrible thing to do to such a helpful pal in gunslinging adventure gameDead Horizon(coming to Steam):
Dead Horizon is a game I’m working on where sometimes if you shoot people, later in the game they’re you know… shot, so they can’t help you.Shooting people tends to have consequences. It’s also mean.#gamedev#indiedev#screenshotsaturday#pixelarthttps://t.co/IMbDbxMB23pic.twitter.com/cKCQjdfKYO
A striking look to “dice-deck-building roguelike” Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles (coming to Steam, with a demo out now):

A moody market:

And more mood from this yet-untitled game built inside GZDoom, a modified modern version of ye olde Doom engine:

I like to see this citinggrimcute adventure game Little Misfortuneas an influence while looking quite different:
I’m spending my free time on the game prototype I was talking about in the last post.So far I like the mood that came out.Inspiration I take from the game Little Misfortune. I also want to make something as cute as dark. 🧡#screenshotsaturday#pixelart#indiegame#gamedevpic.twitter.com/FC3J9kp3Yj
And to close, here’s some real garbage in SNES-style RPG Kingdoms Of The Dump (coming to Steam):
everytime I go to buy some bathroom fireworks I’m out of cash.#screenshotsaturday#gamedev#pixelartpic.twitter.com/DLboVbajRu
