Admiring more 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 was caught by several games with flashy spin attacks, a lovely ride on a rattling railbus, swearing at geese, and plenty more interesting indies. Come admire them with me!
I strongly believe in charging up an attack to spin round and round and round, and Valorous obliges:

I also believe in flipping air attacks, so thank youGurei:
Still a work in progress, but here are some updated animations for the Scythe! It deals high damage and, most importantly, looks quite cool 😎#screenshotsaturday#indiedev#gamedev#indiegame#ゲーム制作pic.twitter.com/ejF2EzhAoV
I did post aboutPodvaraknot long ago and I do try to avoid frequent repeats, but I really, really like this:
Drivers now know how to operate the train nicely and NPCs can now ride in the šinobus! Here’s a short trip from station to station. Refactored A LOT of code for#Podvarakthis week, everything integrates better, but lots of room to polish 🙂#screenshotsaturday#gamedev#indiedevpic.twitter.com/s3uUsJzBC6
Big fan of this skeleton in roguelikelike deckbuilder Nadir (coming to Steam, with a demo up now):

Some cool deaths in spaceship fleet game One Way Road (coming to Steam):

I like the drama from this yet-unnamed game the devhas described as"a fairytale horror adventure with The Lighthouse vibes":

I realise I could describe Super Buckyball Tournament (coming to Steam) as “football with robots”, but I think “Rocket Leaguewith robots” might be more like it?
It takes skills to pay the bills 😎#ScreenshotSaturday#multiplayer#gaming#unity3d#madewithunity#gamedev#indiegames#indiedev#gamedevelopment#gamedesignpic.twitter.com/BqqTQEGnkK
I keep meaning to check outCtrl Alt Ego(out now on Steam), an immersive sim that’s all about possessing robots and devices. I hear it’s good! I have not yet played it. But, er, here’s me raising it now as we admire the new motion sickness-friendly option for transferring your consciousness:

Not sure what’s going on here inAn Aisling, “an adventure game that’s basically a mix between Night in the Woods and Twin Peaks”, but I’m game:

A strong pitch and look from Loco Motive (coming to Steam):
It’s#screenshotsaturday! We’re making Loco Motive, a comedy adventure full of charm & beautiful hand drawn 2D animation!🗡️You play 3 larger-than-life characters aboard a steam train, as they work to solve the murder they’re accused of!🚂💨✨Wishlist:https://t.co/dygL5hoGCapic.twitter.com/PC2Lqix2R4
90s arcade real-time strategy action from Dorf RTS (not its final name). The devs say it’s “in the vein of classic games like Command & Conquer and StarCraft”, though the game I most think of is KKnD:
Putting those sound effects to work.#screenshotsaturday#gamedev#indiedev#indiegamedevpic.twitter.com/XvT49xP1Xf
And to close, I do not know what is happening here, but @CanYouSwearAtTheGeese is surely a novely Twitter account waiting to happen:
Yes, you can swear at the geese.#screenshotsaturday#madewithunitypic.twitter.com/HbRvBrTlkJ
