All Things Indie

If you are a fan of the horror genre of video games, then it is high time you looked into The Path, a short horror game from Tale of Tales. In each level of the game, you play one of six sisters, ranging from age 9 to 19, who must follow a path through the woods and meet their own personal wolf.

Ever had a dream of creating a game? If so, The Game Crafter could become your favorite new site. TGC gives you the opportunity to create, publish and sell your very own games - with no up-front costs!

No, I'm not referring to myself. I'm referring to the cool little flying squirrel that you play in the game, Yo Frankie!

The 12th Annual Independent Games Festival has opened up submissions to independent game developers. We have had the privilege to review some great games from the IGF on our podcast, and I can't wait to see what gets submitted to the festival this year.

Looking for an awesome first-person shooter/puzzle game? Ever dreamed of taking a paint gun and painting everything in sight? If so, Tag: The Power of Paint is for you.

Ever wanted to act in one of your favorite movie scenes? Well, you'll be able to soon with Yoostar's new system that incorporates green screen, a high-res webcam with dual mics, stand and remote. All you have to do is load up their software onto your Mac or PC and act your little heart out.

The flash based game Auditorium we discussed in episode 1 of the podcast is now available in more than demo form. The current version has 15 acts, each of which are comprised of between four and six levels. You really have to play this game to appreciate it.

As I was researching "Blueberry Garden", I discovered another game from Erik Svedäng, "Flipside of the Divine." It's an action puzzle game set in Aztec mythology, where you manipulate platforms and drop enemies into an abyss.

Erik Svedäng's "Blueberry Garden", which won the Independent Games Festival “Seumas McNally Grand Prize” and was a finalist for "Excellence in Audio" in 2009, is finally available on Steam, for $4.99.
