Old photo from the PSM days. Debug PS2s were so temperamental that we had to give them names to reflect their personalities. They all had their own quirks and flaws and weird sounds they made. Some would run certain games, others wouldn't. Not pictured: Tom Cruise, the one that always worked.

A record-breaking 19,003 games were released on Steam in 2024 - up from 14,309 in 2023. Game release competition continues ballooning year-on-year, with fewer than 500 released back in 2013. (Read more: Gaming on Linux)

We'd love to bring you this celebration of 2024 in indie gaming! More than an issue's worth of brand new content with expanded and updated features from our first 7 issues too, in a gorgeous 220-page hardback book. Please share if you can and spread the word :) x www.kickstarter.com/projects/deb...

The demo was excellent - really looking forward to playing the full game 😃

Did you know… YOU can attend the Debug Indie Game Awards in person at Metronome, Nottingham! 21 February 2025. See you there? Tickets: www.eventbrite.com/e/debug-indi...

Absolutely, this!

I write a regular column for @debugmag.com as well as other wonderful industry peers. Previous topics include "So You Want To Be An Indie Video Game Developer?", "The Joy of Limitations", "From the Players Perspective" and this new “What Tetris Can Teach A Game Dev”. Grab a copy, digital or physical

We're off to a great start with this - thank you to everybody who's in so far! If you love indie games, take a look...

Apparently developers are being put off submitting their games for the Debug Indie Game Awards because they assume we charge for nominations and/or trophies… Apparently many other awards ceremonies charge quite a lot of money 🤔 To be clear, entering a game for our awards costs absolutely nothing!

Wow a quarter of the way there - thanks so much to everyone who's backed the Debug Annual so far x

This is a biggie! Literally! A 220-page Debug annual, hardback, over half of it is brand new content (it's essentially more than a whole new issue) plus expanded features from previous issues, reviews for games we missed and so much more! But we need your help to make it happen.

Here we go again! The Debug Indie Game Awards are coming on February 21st 2025 at the Nottingham Metronome. Tickets are on sale and game submissions are open NOW! See you there! #DebugAwards2025
