While the look of mech shooter Lasting Blaze (in early access on Itch.io) instantly made me think of ye olde real-time strategy game Earth 2150:

Becrowned(coming to Steam) looks like one for fans of quiet mounds:

A splash more ultraviolence from this prototype (which reminds the dev of Prototype):

The Zelda-inspired No More Fathers (coming to Steam) is also prototyping aerial action:

Taking to the air for more peaceful purposes, I’m very into this forestation:

Is this curious beast from the “story-driven RPG deck-building” of Naratha (coming to Steam)… a toilet?:

The elemental violence ofHume Index(coming to Steam), an FPS with four-player co-op, is not what I’d expect from a game based on the SCP mythos:

In HUME INDEX, fire arms be packed with element like fire, lighting, helium. Elemental reaction are like superconductive, cold fusion….Wishlist:https://t.co/vxvmphWvo0#gamedev#IndieGameDev#screenshotsaturday#SCPFoundation#FPS#gamespic.twitter.com/QajrAWGUMt— Hume Index (@HumeIndex)January 6, 2024

Flipping out in sci-fi puzzle-platformerBionic Bay(coming to Steam, with a demo there now):

We are currently working on spherical gravity. The transition from one miniplanet to another now works smoothly. You can also dash on a planet without falling, but jumping off will cause you to exit the modified gravity. 🌎#screenshotsaturdaypic.twitter.com/WmJ13kTjLK— Juhana Myllys (@JuhanaMyllys)January 6, 2024
