The Games You’ve Been Ignoring: The Unholy Trinity of Summer Gaming
While the masses were too busy drooling over the latest blockbusters, the real innovators were hard at work crafting experiences that would make your grandmother question your sanity. Yes, I’m talking about the indie games that dare to be different, the ones that will make you question everything you thought you knew about gaming.
1. The Crush House: A Descent into Madness
Imagine running a reality TV show, but instead of boring contestants, you’re forced to deal with a cast of dysfunctional personalities. That’s The Crush House in a nutshell. It’s a game that’s equal parts satire and psychological horror, where you’re tasked with managing a group of idiots while trying to create the most absurd, cringe-worthy content. And yes, it’s just as messed up as it sounds.
2. Flock: The Bird Whisperer’s Wet Dream
In Flock, you play as a bird, collecting a flock of other birds, because who doesn’t want to do that? It’s like the game developers took every terrible idea from the last decade, threw them in a blender, and hit puree. But hey, at least the graphics are pretty.
3. Minishoot’ Adventures: A Shooter for the Ages (of 5)
This one’s a real head-scratcher. Imagine a game that combines the best of twin-stick shooters with the worst of Metroidvanias. That’s Minishoot’ Adventures in a nutshell. It’s like someone took all the excitement and tension out of shooting and replaced it with… nothing. Just a bunch of awkward platforming and annoying enemies. Joy.
4. Nine Sols: The Silksong Suck-Up
In Nine Sols, you play as a knight in shining armor, because who doesn’t want to be a knight in shining armor? It’s like the game developers took every cliche from the last decade, threw them in a blender, and hit puree. But hey, at least the action is fast-paced.
5. Schim: The Floor is Lava… Literally
In Schim, you play as a… thing… that can possess objects and use shadows to navigate the world. It’s like the game developers took every terrible idea from the last decade, threw them in a blender, and hit puree. But hey, at least the game has some weird charm.
6. SteamWorld Heist 2: The Pirate’s Life for Me
This one’s a real pirate-fest. Imagine a game that combines the best of turn-based strategy with the worst of… well, everything else. That’s SteamWorld Heist 2 in a nutshell. It’s like someone took all the excitement and tension out of strategy and replaced it with… more strategy. Yay.
7. Thank Goodness You’re Here!: The Weirdness that is
This one’s a real head-scratcher. Imagine a game that combines the best of… nothing with the worst of everything. That’s Thank Goodness You’re Here! in a nutshell. It’s like someone took all the weirdness and absurdity from the last decade, threw them in a blender, and hit puree. And you know what? It’s actually kind of fun.
