Happy Tuesday, dolorosos! ☠️ We (virtually) sat down with @sugarohsnappeas.bsky.social from @sixoneindie.com to talk a little bit about how the team came together, its distinctive artistic style and what "indie" means to us 🖤 Read below! ⬇️ www.sixoneindie.com/read/intervi...

Trailer for our new #inidegame called Penguin Colony! We are collaborating with Lenval Brown (Disco Elysium, Ultrakill) to bring this unique re-imagining to life www.youtube.com/watch?v=aylG...

Also check out this post show interview with Vermila Studios from @sugarohsnappeas.bsky.social - www.sixoneindie.com/read/intervi...

Look man, if you’re a transphobe, I just think you’re a horrible person. Full stop. It is what it is! But I don’t wish bad things on you, because there is no worse fate I could wish on you than the life you are currently living as a grotesque, miserable monster with a rotting heart.

My mom and sister are single handedly helping me collect all the BTS toys at McDonald's because I'm gluten free now and can't eat anything there (not that if I wasnt i'd be going frequently enough to get a bunch of toys anyway) but I have almost the whole set and feel so loved. ☺️

My babies are the cutest

“Herdling is an adorable adventure that I believe is about found family and how a found family can help you, comfort you and be exactly what you need in your hardest moments.” Becca’s full review is here (RIP Neve):

Master the art of balancing your serving tray and gaining the trust of Yokai in The Way of the Tray. Check out Becca's feature here: www.sixoneindie.com/read/the-way...

Want something to scratch that Balatro itch? Birdigo is like Balatro, Wordle and Scrabble all combined together in a super fun title. Check out Becca's piece on the game here: www.sixoneindie.com/read/looking...

The Knightling reminded me of Breath of the Wild mixed with beloved platformers like Spyro the Dragon. If you’re a fan of adventure games, this open world is full of action, heart and lots of monsters to throw your shield at. Read Becca’s full feature here:

I've been a bit quiet lately, but there's a reason for that

A huge congrats to our friends at @wholesomegames.com for their Wholesome Games celebration 🥳 Here are all the Southeast Asian Games you can check out at the event, happening until August 14th! 👇 store.steampowered.com/sale/wholeso...

Rowling's 24/7 commitment to being an absolute nightmare ghoul is sort of extraordinary. She has every option in the world for how to spend her life and she commits herself entirely to hatred and self-righteous mean-spiritedness; some are more effective at evil but nobody puts in the hours like her.

WAIT!? Is that a grinding truck game, that now features a GRINDING TANUKI Hero Card!? That's right! Unlock Pon from TANUKI: Pon's Summer as a new Hero card in the excellent Promise Mascot Agency from today! 🦝👇

it's the final week of the Drăculești Kickstarter campaign! we're at the funny number, which is Nice, but you know what would be even nicer? reaching 100% 🖤 www.kickstarter.com/projects/1712125696/draculesti

According to insiders, 2K has cancelled a BioShock remake and BioShock 4 isn't where it should be. www.gamespew.com/2025/08/bios...

We will not tolerate laziness in my kingdom! In fact, maybe I won’t even give them chairs to sit on. No sitting! That’s my first decree as king! Becca is given too much power with this new feature on The King is Watching by Hypnohead:

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers nails the beautiful cadence where the best Soulslikes shine… until we hit a wall. We’re not throwing in the towel, but there’s definitely a bitter taste around what could very well be one of this year’s sweetest action games.

If you’re a big fan of racing games, Wheel World is completely fine, but it’s not as exciting as we’d hoped it would be. The storyline is cute and the game’s surprising twists are charming, but unfortunately, the overall package didn’t do quite enough to fully impress.

The PAX crew got to play Tanuki: Pon’s Summer and we all adored it, and now you can too! Becca got to do a preview for us with the new launch of the demo! Check it out here:

The Kickstarter for @fine-fiends.bsky.social’s game Drăculești has 15 days left! Check out their Kickstarter and our piece below. Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/171... Our article: www.sixoneindie.com/read/queer-v...

Tales of the Shire is a silly and fun life sim with sweet characters, satisfying side quests and a heartwarming story. It combines mechanics you’ll find in Animal Crossing or Stardew Valley, but makes them true to a hobbit’s life. Check out Becca’s full review here:

Heartworm makes a fantastic first impression. It truly looks, feels and plays like a game from the 90s. Read Becca’s full feature:

“I’ve had a fantastic time with Primal Planet so far…. it looks fantastic and I can’t wait to discover what other weird alien stuff I’ll uncover the closer I get to the end of the story.” Check out Becca’s full feature on the site:

Time Flies from @panic.com sends a little fly on an amazing adventure that encourages players to be silly and think outside of the box. This game quickly flew to be one of Becca’s absolute favorites of the year. Her buzzworthy review is here:

Tales of the Shire's world is easy to fall in love with and hard to leave. Though not perfect, booting it up felt like returning home.

This one looks so special and fun! Consider supporting their Kickstarter! We need more queer love stories in our lives :)

Have been busy polishing my GBC game over the past few weeks! Points are added now (longer slimes = more points!), and thanks to sub maps, the field is updating much quicker. :) Also happy with the Retry/Quit menu, it turned out to be a huge time saver during testing! #gbstudio #gbc #gameboy

Worship from @chasingratsgames.bsky.social launches into Early Access today and Becca got a chance to preview it, because we at Six One Indie cannot pass up a cult game! Especially one that is seemingly of a mix between Pikmin and Cult of the Lamb. Read her full preview here:

I saw that there's Babybell snacking cheese with Pokémon on them and showed my sister. She asked if I wanted her to get me some. She lives 8 hours away. This is love. (Note: She is not driving 8 hours to bring me Pokémon cheese but it's the THOUGHT that COUNTS.)

Popping in with 2400dpi art scans/600dpi page scans that I just uploaded for the "Million Publications" guide for the original Legend of #Zelda. It's a small guide on bad paper but it has some of the most absolutely adorable pieces of art. Find it here: archive.org/details/guid...

Marvel Cosmic Invasion blends beat 'em up gameplay with nostalgic Marvel tag-style fighting for what is shaping up to be a surefire arcade classic. @dotemu.bsky.social and @tributegames.com are, in fact, cooking.

And it's done. This means so much: I've been dreaming of making this game for so long, and to have so many of you show up for us? It goes beyond words. This process has been exhilarating and exhausting and beautiful and terrifying. And I'm so fucking grateful. Crescent County is going to be real 💜

The Indie Informer welcomes a new talented writer: Peter Hunt Szpytek (@peterspittech.bsky.social)! Check out his debut preview here and be prepared for many more this week!

Interested in taking part of one of our future events as a developer and/or partner? We're now accepting submissions for events happening later this year and 2026! forms.gle/oczqRwwPp63j...

I've been SO excited to play Date Everything! and it absolutely does not disappoint. Check out my review over on Six One Indie!

Date Everything! (@dateeverythinggame.bsky.social) is the thirst trap game of the year. It is the epitome of bisexual panic & Sassy Chap Games knows exactly what they’ve done to us. Check out Becca’s full review:

The Drifter from @dave.powerhoof.com has a really intriguing and heart-pounding story, that looks absolutely gorgeous with phenomenal performances. Check out Becca’s review of the demo here: www.sixoneindie.com/read/the-dri...
