I explore indie and AA titles you may not have heard of 🎮 games that surprise you, challenge you, offer interesting gameplay, or deserve a place in your gaming backlog.

This game is janky, chaotic, and completely commits to the madness, and that’s why I couldn’t stop playing it. 🔥 #indiegames #gaming @takao.tubezgames.com @amatagames.bsky.social

I came for a tiny truck in rural Japan and stayed for the absolute chaos. Did not expect this one to hit like a truck (pun intended).

Every once in a while, a game hits in a way you don’t expect. What’s the last one that surprised you? #indiegames #gaming

Came for a skate game. Ended up lost in a gritty, artsy world that actually stuck with me. Skate Story is a total vibe.

Almost skipped this because of the cover art… turns out it’s a survivors-like power fantasy that completely hooked me. What’s a game you judged way too fast? #indiegames #gaming

I’ve played an unhealthy amount of survivors-likes, and Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel hooked me fast. Diablo-style pacing, nonstop hordes, and a full-on power fantasy that just feels good to play.

Just one more run... Anyone actually clear the harder difficulty modes?

Happy 2026 to everyone! May your gaming backlog multiply tenfold 😆

Whenever I think arcade shooters have hit their ceiling, something proves me wrong. That game is Sektori. Frenetic twin-stick chaos, flashy visuals, pulse-pounding sound, and that “just one more run” loop. 🤯 More thoughts in this video.
