Alright, let’s dive into the wild world of indie games. Trust me, it’s a journey. So, there’s this platform, indie.io. They’re like this cool group that connects with all these different game developers, bringing a whole smorgasbord of games to the table. Imagine a bunch, and then throw a sale into the mix. Yeah, they’ve got sales going on for Nintendo Switch until the end of July – gotta love discounts, right?
Now, indie.io doesn’t stick to one type of game. Nope. They’ve got cozy adventures, tactical RPGs, weird creature things, and whatever else you can think of. I found this out because, well, I was diving through their sale – and next thing you know, I’m picking favorites. Like, how do you even choose? Anyway, here are a few that caught my eye, and, like, no judgment if you buy them all. Been there.
Echoes of the Plum Grove – 20% Off
This game… it’s a farm sim, but with a twist, like some kind of soap opera on an island. Somehow, you wash up on this place and start farming. Sounds normal until generations start happening. Make friends, make enemies, maybe get witchy with local covens? Who knows. Oh, and it’s all hand-drawn—fancy, right? The island’s full of secrets too. The drama practically writes itself.
Dark Deity – 75% Off
This one’s a strategy RPG, the kind that makes you sweat a bit with planning. It’s like chess, but with way more at stake. You’ve got an army to lead, classes to choose, and some old wounds to nurse if you mess up. Characters here aren’t just cannon fodder. Nope, if they fall, they really feel it. And there’s a DLC too—because, of course, there is. More battles, more story. The grind never stops, folks.
Coromon – 50% Off
Alright, so if catching creatures is your thing, say hello to Coromon. Over a hundred monsters, folks. Each with their own quirks and the battle system? It’s all about stamina. Feels like planning a day out without collapsing from exhaustion. And the plot’s full of twists. Think you know where it’s going? Plot twist, you don’t. Keeps you on your toes.
Cat Cafe Manager – 40% Off
Yeah, the name’s not subtle. It’s exactly what you’d think and more. You end up running this cafe in Caterwaul Way, and you adopt cats. Decorate the place, hire staff, and maybe solve a mystery or two while sipping coffee? The layers here—part business, part cat heaven. Honestly, it’s a niche, but an intriguing one.
9 Years of Shadows – 35% Off
Now, let’s switch gears. Picture a world without color for nearly a decade. Heavy stuff, eh? You’re Europa, a warrior on a mission to bring back vibrancy. You’ve got a floating bear buddy who helps restore hues, adding a touch of whimsy. It’s a Metroidvania-type story with a killer soundtrack. Seriously, the music here is pure nostalgia. Love it.
Mail Time – 30% Off
Ending on a chill note, here’s Mail Time. It’s set in a whimsical forest, delivering letters to critters. Simple, right? And that’s the beauty. No stress, no rush, just you and some light platforming. The vibe here is all about peace. Upgrade your stuff and just float through the forest. Bliss, in game form.
Who even knew so much could fit into one sale? Anyway—no idea why, but this sale is just the right kind of chaotic energy.
