Onirism is A Colorful Dream & Nightmare World

Posted on by Dave Pizza
“Onirism” is a good example of another game where French indie dev teams are making games potent in fun and translates to a wide audience. This goes beyond exaggeration and is an interesting subject to me, but one which I don’t know a lot about. Regardless, I committed to this game, so I’ll take you through a brief but satisfactory run down of the world of Onirism. Additionally, the game recently received a major update and has a ton of new content. Let’s go!! By the way, thank you so much to Indie Game Collective and the developers at Crimson… Read the rest

The Universim is a Fantastic New World Sim I Tried

Posted on by Dave Pizza
The Universim is a civilization simulator from Crytivo that combines features from planet sims with more advanced skill trees. The game touts a robust planet-level environment with the ability to manage the course of civilization from primal to advanced stages. The game is still in development but is going through a rigorous beta, although you can purchase early access on Steam, which many have. I’m kind of reminded here of experiences of other sims out there, but I saw some things I haven’t seen before too. Thanks to the collaboration between my friends at Indie Game Collective and Crytivo, I’ve… Read the rest

Indoorlands is an Awesome New Theme Park Sim… Indoors

Posted on by Dave Pizza
So, here we go with this first look at Indoorlands. Greetings gamers and spectators alike. Today, I have a showcase on a game coming soon to Steam in an early-access stage. I’ve acquired access to the game via my community at Indie Game Collective. I have a fondness for sims and a passion for indie games. So, I am mentally ready to try out Indoorlands I think. This is a concept with high sophistication for such an independent effort. And its bells and whistles are as shiny as the top contenders. Tilt-A-Whirl I’d say I’ve probably been to amusement parks… Read the rest

Lab Rags is a Freebie Hidden Gem By Students With a Unique Feature

Posted on by Dave Pizza
Lab Rags is an upcoming title from the student project studio Salt Mine Studios. It is an art-deco-era puzzle-level game that shares mechanics with games like Portal and its descendants. Start solving puzzles right away as a mechanical android with a neat gun similar to the classic gravity gun. You can advance within the game by respawning and then grabbing your previous housing to fling at door-opening buttons, traverse over spike pits, and even build structures like stairs out of crushed cubes made from your metal leftovers. The environments and music are very charming, and it is an appropriate level… Read the rest

Super Indie Karts is the Only Competition Out There

Posted on by Dave Pizza
I’ve had my eye on Super Indie Karts for a while. This game has been in a bottleneck since 2014, but it’s come a long way. I decided to be adventurous and check out the early access option on Steam, and see what’s up. It’s kind of callous I guess to absolutely immediately compare Super Indie Karts to Super Mario Kart. It is in fact very similar, but it’s a different beast. Actually, it feels totally different, and the purpose is different too. But it’s what place MK8 has in the indie lifestyle. A lot if you ask me, I… Read the rest
