Comment on Day 1 of posting an indie game I found that I think it is cool - LOVE ETERNAL
hellerphant@piefed.social 1 day agoI plan to do it! I do a weekly newsletter that features 5 games every week so I’ll just post one a day over here with a little snippet and it should be golden.
I started the newsletter to bring more awareness to indies. As an indie dev myself, it’s really hard out there to get people to see your game these days.

Thank you a lot for your work! I agree it’s difficult to discover indie titles. Most channels only cover either AAA games, or the “famous” indie games (Hollow Knight, Hades, etc…). It’s a lot more difficult to discover truly obscure stuff, which is a shame because a lot of great games get ignored and forgotten quickly. My favourite game from the last decade was an indie game that I discovered randomly, and it’s a shame I could have missed it just as easily. Makes me wonder how many “favourite” games I missed over the years.

Well you can’t leave me hanging, what was the game?

Ha ha, you’re right, sorry :P
It was CrossCode! It single-handedly reignited my interest in gaming after a few slow years. Then left me disappointed when no other game managed to capture my heart as it did :(

CrossCode is a great game! I never finished it, not because I didn’t love it, I just had other things going on at the time. I need to go back though!
Those folks are working on something new. I can’t remember what it’s called right now. But that is a studio who is very dedicated to their craft.
