Hello Indie Game Fan Reader!

I'm writing this email to you from a hotel lobby in Bangkok, having attended my once-a-year video game event in gamecom asia. It was awesome to meet developers, publishers and games industry people, and honestly, I would love to do so on a more regular basis, but alas, the day job calls and there's work to be done.

​

I came across a number of interesting games which I will be sharing with you, but if you're itching to try some games, the Steam Next Festival is live with my picks of demos here, here and here.

​

Mega week of new releases coming up post Next Fest, so stay tuned as always for the Best Indie Games.

Berserk B.I.T.S - From the creator of Berserk Boy comes this AutoBattler Idle RPG which lives on your desktop, as your Battle Intelligent Teammate (B.I.T) fights viruses, levels up, and collects powerful chips in real time while you go about your day, browsing the internet, doing work or checking emails.

​

Inspired by Mega Man Battle Network, Digimon Digivices, and Tamagotchi, this has a retro charm to it mixed in with modern mechanics.

​

• Collect and equip over 100 battle chips, used to create decks of skills, attacks, and buffs that your B.I.T uses in combat.
• Customize your companion with your own pixel art
• Upgrade your base with decorative items
• Unravel a full story campaign filled with side quests, boss fights, and a growing cyber threat.

​

Their free demo for the Steam Next Festival is live, so try it, wishlist the game and look forward to its release on November 20th 2025.
