Hello Indie Game Fan Reader!

It was the week of Steam Autumn Sale, so tell me, what did you get? I wanted to make a Steam sale video but alas, this will have to do this time around.

I was doing some groundwork for Steam Next Festival coverage (developer submit here), as well as prep work for the BIG Winter Showcase AND gamescom asia 2025, so I've been busy!

More content to come of course, always bringing you the BEST Indie Games.
