If you want to watch the whole thing again, here’s that too.
Indie World showcases are generally a bit ho-hum, but i am pleasantly surprised, there are some really nice looking games here!
Raji looks awesome, and A Short Hike looks right up my alley – is that a Prinny??
Im sure some people will love Spiritfarer but seems like it would be a bit of a downer to me at present.
