Detention (RedCandleGames, 2017)

New review: Herdling by @okomotive.ch, an adventure through vast environments as a boy with a herd of "calicorns". At times musically and artistically very impressive and impactful, at times confusing and difficult to control sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...

Neva concepts — Autumn edition 🍂

introducing the "puzzle compass," a certifiably correct and statistically proven chart of my infallible opinion what games need added? let me know, because i am the authority on this purely objective study #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #gamestudies

New review: To a T by @uvula.jp, a "Saturday morning cartoon"-like adventure about being different. I had so much fun with this, both due to its ridiculous story and its silly playground world where you can be a little troublemaker sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...

Norco (Geography of Robots, 2022)

Arco (Franek, Max Cahill, Bibiki & Fáyer, 2024)

New review: Centum by Hack the Publisher, a spooky point-and-click adventure with an attractive art style, but not much else going for it. I pushed through it but didn't feel satisfied even once reaching its conclusion sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...

NEVA concepts — Summer edition 🍃

Probably won't get around to writing a review about it rn but Dungeons of Dreadrock is a really fun little puzzle dungeon crawler that usually goes on sale for a couple bucks, I had a lot of fun with it

New review: despelote by @despelote.game team, a slice of life game about an 8-year-old boy's childhood playing soccer with his friends in 2001 Quito. Ecuador is in a soccer fever as the national team gets closer to the world cup sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...

New review: Blue Prince by @dogubomb.bsky.social, a mysterious exploration through an ever-changing manor full of history and secrets. This stellar puzzle game had me hooked with finding clues in every nook and cranny, and there is still much more. sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...

New review: Echoes of the Plum Grove by Unwound Games, a Paper Mario-looking farming sim set in the 1600-1700s early colonies. Its dark but goofy humor and its time-relevant challenges make it unique, but feels lacking with weak controls and writing sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...

New review: Arco by Franek, Bibiki, Fayer, Max Cahill. A pixel-art RPG adventure in a fantastical version of Mesoamerica. Unique environments, monsters, beautifully sad ballads, and a story of pain and revenge. sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...

New review: Thank Goodness You're here by @coalsupper.bsky.social, a cartoony, silly adventure in the town of Barnsworth, where everyone needs your help but you cause some chaos along the way, too. The funniest game I've played this a while! sleepytoadstool.wixsite.com/sleepytoadst...
