This week I’d like to introduce you to four short Indie Freebies from Eight Bit Skyline, a Norwegian game designer who also goes under the moniker of Seaman Naranja. I’m currently going through a phase of replaying old-school adventure games, so while perusing Game Jolt for interesting Indie Freebies for this very feature, I was somewhat predictably drawn to his latest venture Kameleon, a short adventure game featuring 2D graphics and a familiar point-and-click interface. But it wasn’t at all what I was expecting. In fact, I was so intrigued by what I encountered that I decided to check out the rest of his output.
The organizers of the 24nd annual Independent Games Festival (IGF) have announced the finalists for the 2022 IGF Awards, which honors the most influential, innovative and exemplary projects in independent game development.
From Indie darlings to massive blockbusters, you might be surprised to find out how many of your favourite games are made down under. Here is every game, big or small made in Australia released in 2020.

Looks like some new movement on the Atari VCS has arrived. The Atari VCS Store Will Feature Some of the Most Innovative and Creative Titles Incubated on the Game Jolt Platform.
I love this new attempt to sell a completely underpowered console, with end of life hardware, with no possibility for growth/expansion to another crowd “interested” in indie dev. Ouya tried this and if flopped for a good reason. This new “Atari” group are shady as f peddling something worse than a Gizmdo and Ouya put together for this asking price. (on all angles hardware/software/marketing/la unch/drama).
Okay I like free. I will take a look!
