Episode 16: Indie May-hem (send help)

Indieventure

TOO MANY GREAT GAMES RELEASED IN MAY. Don’t get us wrong, we love being bombarded with cool indies but, MY GOD, May has been wild. In this episode, the Indieventure gang sit down to chat about this phenomenon and get into which games they played out of the torrent of releases.

Liam’s been exploring a creepy abandoned theme park filled with monstrous weirdos in the survival horror game Crow Country and brushing up on his spelling in the fill-in-the-blank dungeon-crawler Cryptmaster. Rebecca flirted with cute monsters (classic Rebecca antics) in horror dating sim Sucker for Love: Date to Die For, while also enjoying the fun animal hijinks of wholesome exploration game Little Kitty, Big City. Rachel went spelunking in a subterranean labyrinth filled with strange creatures in Animal Well and had her brain fried by the intense puzzle powerhouse that is Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. She also checked out 1000xResist and cried over alien invaders, sad clones, and mommy issues. The gang finishes up this bumper crop of indie picks with a discussion about Hades 2 which released into Steam Early Access this month.

To wrap up the episode it’s hyperfixations! Rebecca binged season 5 of Fargo which has taken a refreshing new direction from its other seasons, Liam took a nostalgia trip watching Jackass Forever, and no hyperfixation from Rachel this episode as she’s been resting.
