For clarification, Scar is a wonderful person and isn't forcing me to write this - she was just doing a bit related to a recently banned chatter - it made me laugh, though

I'd totally wink twice if I was being forced to write this🙂😉🙂😉

I feel seen by my mods <3

Disclaimer: I got the key for free but @pinecreekgames.com absolutely delivered with Winter Burrow and I will be completing the game on stream this week.

Devs/Publishers that put estimated playtime in their press releases/outreach mails: you're the unsung heroes

I know people mean well and I appreciate their excitement but I personally like experiencing things without any mods first so I know what the mods do and impact and why they're "needed"

It makes it very difficult to untangle "mod experience" from the game if you never play it without mods.

I love when I enter a gaming community as a new player and people go "here's a list of mods"... I haven't even PLAYED the game yet, let me experience it and then let me see what - if anything - I'd like to mod

Even worse when they go "oh these are mandatory mods because XYZ sucks" LET ME DECIDE

Because of my recent obsession with Caves of Qud, chat told me to try Starsector by @amosolov.bsky.social I was already tempted by the recommendation alone (I love getting game recs) but then I read the lore section on the official website and now I NEED to play it

Twitch Twitch is the world

I played all of these live on stream so be sure to follow me on Twitch to find more cool indie games

I stream every day from 7pm GMT+1 until midnight - I'm going to run a little experiment and upload the vods of my favourite indie games to youtube soon too so stay tuned!

October was a great month for indie games, each of the 7 games on this list alone would've made me happy but I got to experience all 7 - and more because there were a bunch of other good indie games that released in October
