Ex: Fans of indie games make know developer Rake in Grass for their horror-action PC title Larva Mortus, an enjoyable mashup of games like SmashTV and Diablo.
This morning, the company announced the arrival of Archibald's Adventures on the PSP minis platform. Previously released on iPhone and PC, the title hits the European PSN store today, and follows in North America on July 20th.
Game Podunk Editor, Dan Curtis writes, "Indie isn't always easy. Struggling along without the benefits and money a big publisher can bring in can sometimes be a struggle, but not for Rake In Grass, who I recently talked to about their games, the indie scene and their thoughts on big publishers. The responses come from Mr Pavel Tovarys, who works as a producer for Rake In Grass (or RIG for short)."
GP: First give me a bit of background on Rake In Grass. How was the company started? Was it a struggle to originally get set up and have success?
RIG: RiG is a small independent team. We have been developing games since our university studies, more than 10 years ago. I think we released our best known game Jets'n'Guns before we finished our studies and it was a success. We then immediately decided to choose game development as our job.

No Sonic, no Mario, but plenty of platforming magic on show.
This is great! With all the iphone games out there, having a list of the best is very helpful.

Pretty sweet. I suppose a few more games would be nice.. how much does it cost?
Haven't had a reason to play my PSP in a while. My interest is piqued.
