Hello Indie Game Fan Reader!

​

πŸ‚The Best Indie Games Fall Showcase - 2nd September 2025! πŸ‚

​

My Fall Showcase will be live in 2 days! Hope to see you live!

​

There an electricity in the air as the gaming world, collectively, awaits the release of Hollow Knight: Silksong! Let me know if you played the original, what did you think of it and if Silksong will be a Day 1 purchase (reply to this email.

​

Conservatively, I expect Silksong to generate at least $20 million within a month of release, so Team Cherry will be (or already has been) financially set for life, and will be free to continue making games without pressure (in part why it took so long, they were having fun making it)

​

Either way, September 4th will be a pivotal date!

Best Indie Games Newsletter By Clement β€’ 26 October 2025 Hello Indie Game Fan Reader! I took a moment to look at the amazing indie game success stories this year, and man, it's great to see smaller teams / solo devs achieve big wins! The same story continues for some of the new releases this week, and there's a growing sentiment that the old model of large AA (40+ people) or AAA (100+ people) studios not working anymore. It's either you're super scrappy and lean (1-8 people) or massive...
