Steam and other organisations host seasonal Game Festivals which highlight a lot of Indie Developers and showcase their games via demos. As the numbers of demos increase, it can be overwhelming to navigate. I like to play through them and help filter which games you should most definitely be watching out for.
On top of that, I love to support indie games as best as I can, so any light that I can shine on them will be gathered here!
Indie Showcase – Steam Next Fest February 2023
It is Steam Next Fest time! That’s right, it is once again time to celebrate the indie games being created day in day out, all around the world! I love to take this opportunity to play as many demos as possible, trying out as many as I can in my never ending quest to see…
Introducing ‘Indie Showcase: Magazine Edition’
Remember the Steam Next Fest that took place one month ago that I said I would make some content for? It’s here! I played so many great demos and I am very excited to finally share them. One night I had an idea – which then became a personal goal – to create a magazine.…
Indie Game Festivals – 2021 Releases
I recently made a post about a bunch of the Indie Games that have released this year, of who’s demos I had played over the years. Since I didn’t cover all the Indie Game Festivals as comprehensively as I would have liked at the time, I decided to do the same thing again except this…
Indie Game Festivals – 2022 Releases
Over the last couple of years since the very first Steam Game Festival, I have spent a lot of time playing the demos of Indie Games. The idea of these festivals was fantastic to me. Games get the chance to showcase what they are, and I get the chance to try games that I may…
Indie Showcase 1-50 – Top 10
It is slightly late but upon looking back over my Indie Showcase so far, I thought it would be fun to pick out some favourites. I originally planned to do this when I reach 100 videos, but picking out the 10 best is already proving to be difficult so I am going to go ahead…
Steam Game Festival: Autumn Edition 2020
The Steam Game Festival: Autumn Edition 2020 is here! Usually I play many demos, record them for YouTube and make a video of my highlights and top pics. I’m extremely disappointed that – due to technical reasons – I will not be able to do that for this season. So instead, I am going to…
Steam Game Festival: Summer Edition 2020 – Top Game Picks
I tried something a little different this time. Since I have now played so many of these demos, I thought it would be helpful for anyone new to the festival to have a guide to know where to start. So this time I have made a more comprehensive quickfire guide of games that I think…
Steam Game Festival: Summer Edition 2020
The Steam Game Festival has well and truly grown, as shown at the Summer Edition 2020. Now containing hundreds of demos, the event has become something that everyone should mark on their calendar. With the event now spanning over 7 days, not only indie games are being showcased but AA and even some AAA titles.…
LudoNarraCon 2020 – 6 Indie Narrative Games to Watch out for
For my highlight video of the LudoNarraCon 2020 I only included the games that I played for the first time during this festival. Meaning, I didn’t want to repeat games from my Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition 2020 video. Instead, I hand picked my top 6 experiences from the new demos I played. Here are…
LudoNarraCon 2020
After covering the Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition 2020 I was looking forward to the Summer Edition. Little did I know that the LudoNarraCon 2020 was just around the corner. Basically, it is the same type of event as the Steam Game Festival, except this one is solely focused on narrative games. It’s like it…
Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition 2020 – Top 10 Demos
Of the 20 demos that I tried I during the Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition 2020 I managed to narrow it down to my top 10! All here for different reasons, I am confident there are some gems. I am going to be keeping my eye on them all to see how they do during…
Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition 2020
The first Steam Game Festival that got my attention was the Winter Edition 2019, where around 8 game demos were available to try for a couple of days. I didn’t make any content about them at the time but I tried 4 of them – Spiritfarer and The Drifter being stand outs – and had…
