I go on Twitter 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. Well, on Tuesday this week, thanks to the four-day Easter weekend. But the games look just as attractive and interesting as they did on Saturday, so what’s the hurry? Check these out!
Elevating action from this “retro-styled isometric simulation game”:
I added small indicator lights to the elevator entrances to show the elevator’s current direction. I guess this is how they are supposed to work? 🔽🔼#screenshotsaturday#gamedev#isometric#simulation#pixelart#indiedevpic.twitter.com/SlrraBUDCz
I like this nod toDeus ExinAquametsis(coming to Steam), a “blend of immersive sim, tactical FPS, and strategy set in a submerged corporate hellscape”:

I mean, what do you want me to say, this speaks for itself:
working on a level, happy with how its shaping up :P#gamedev#indiegame#levelart#leveldesign#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/ZvCjlkWXgN
I’m still so into the look of Yelizaveta: The Labours Of Misfortune:
“Darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters."#screenshotsaturday#indiegame#indiedevpic.twitter.com/v6JKLb94cF
Unleashing your horde in zombie ‘em up You Are Zombies (demo available on Itch):
I keep meaning to write about phenomenal browser game Corru.Observer (free to play through its site) so consider this a reminder to both of us:
#screenshotsaturdaycontinued improvements to the CSS-controlled camera!! the ‘3rd person tank control’ view was static and boring before, and the upcoming camera/stage rework lets us do more interesting stuff!pic.twitter.com/4hy7uFpFKh
A bit of sailboating in this game madeby a sailboater:
A bit late for#screenshotsaturday. Worked on the new wave system and boat steering. Surfing down waves, getting decelerated by waves, wind profile for the ship (against wind is harder than with wind).#piratespic.twitter.com/RYttiJA7YK
The rude ‘tude is a little flat but I’m interested in beat ‘em up Thriller Night:
A little more from the first episode of#ThrillerNight, titled “The Eyes of Outer Space” 👀🦾@GameMakerEngine🎵@draven1980s#ScreenshotSaturday#GameMaker#ArcadeGame#BeatEmUp#IndieGamepic.twitter.com/ZOm3xtp0l9

Few can resist the charms of the Cat Suit#DoubleShake#screenshotsaturday#gamedev#indiedevpic.twitter.com/Y8gz4po68s
There’s a lot to understand here in roguelikelike Solitaire ‘em up Solitaire Battle (coming to Itch, with a demo there now) but after Luck Be A Landlord turned slot machines roguelikelike andBalatrodid the same with poker, sure I’m interested in more games in the same vein:

This nice forest visit inAkatori: Сhapter One (coming to Steam) is a touch livelier than the one I myself had over the weekend:

There’s a lot going on in this cutscene from magical girl bullet hell action-RPG Marmoreal (coming to Steam, with a demo there now):
Octavia is an elite soldier, with mastery over a variety of weapons. She has a very serious attitude, and is not one for jokes.She is also very throwable.#screenshotsaturday#gamedev#indiedev#madewithunitypic.twitter.com/s2pXY0zalk
Waterpark-building manage-o-sim Aqua Mundo (coming to Steam) continues to look good:
While designing your own waterpark in Aqua Mundo, it’s easy to combine patterns and colour palettes in order to create cool looking environments.Here’s a quick little showcase 🙂#screenshotsaturday#indiegames#tycoon#gamedevpic.twitter.com/MjRSGSsdOo
