Weekly Indie Update (Week 1 of 2012)

January 7th, 2012 Wraithkal Feature

Not sure what happened with the last WIU, but somehow both the URL (now fixed) and the dates in the title (also fixed) made it look like predictions rather than past events. Smooth!

Oh, but where are my manners? This is supposed to be a Weekly Indie Update! So without further ado, here are the things that hit my radar this past week:

DIYGamer interviewed Mike Wiemholt (Epic Inventor designer)
Indie Game Mag reviewed Firefly Vegas, Q.U.B.E., Stealth Bastard and Trine 2
IndieGameReviewer reviewed Terrorhedron
IndieBase reviewed Unepic

That’s it for this one, except for one last thing..

Wraithkal

Whenever a big AAA title claims it'll "innovate with groundbreaking features", it usually turns out to be an absolute snorefest - one which simply mimics other games (poorly). This is where my interest in indie games comes from: pick a random title from a pile of indie games and chances are you’ll hit something downright unique and different, often for well less than $60 too.
