Gamasutra: The indie talent backing the PlayStation Vita is steadily increasing as the system approaches its US and EU February 22 release. Last month, Everyday Shooter developer Jon Mak shared how Vita's technology allows for interactive music to form the key of Sound Shapes' platforming experience.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "There are examples out there of games being developed for Vita that truly make the most of its inputs, coming up with unique ways of interacting with the hardware to make for a memorable gaming experience. It’s these titles I’m looking at in this article – what they are and how they worked on Vita, both in terms of what they did right and what they could have done better."
IGM runs through some of the best indie releases of 2012 on both Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita, featuring the likes of Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack and escapeVektor.
Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack and Sound Shapes are fantastic sidescrollers. I've only played a bit of Frobisher Says, but it is a lot of fun.
Pocket Gamer: Going back to Frobisher Says after nearly a year is quite the experience. You slowly but surely remember just how insane this game was the first time around - then the new content hits you, and somehow it manages to be just as absurd.
The Frobisher Says Mega Fun Pack adds 15 new mini-games to the WarioWare-style title, and they're quite the mixed bag, ranging from the completely deranged (in a good way) to the completely deranged (in a not so good way).
I am expecting alot of Indie games on the Vita for two reasons:
1. Vita Dev units are supposed to be cheap and developer friendly compared to all previous playstations.
2.Touchscreen allows the possibility of porting many games from the iphone/android.
I am expecting a lot of innovative games to come from indies, and I can't wait to see how they use the hardware.
I am happy that Sony supports amateur musicians. Should.mean a lot of unique titles for the vita. :-P
