I plan to have this feature as a bi-weekly feature in order to reinforce Indie gaming into CAG seeing as it is on the rise in things to come and the fact that it's very important to the industry growth and maturing. Every feature will showcase a game in which you can download a full version of or a demo of unless otherwise noted. I will just be posting a spotlight game that I feel deserves focus on but I will not post my impressions and responses in the OP since it's mainly suppose to get a response from you.

Also note, I highly recommend that if you do like a showcased game please go to the developer's website and download or study up on them. Indie gaming is alot more like local music industries than the big stuff since alot of recognition in indie gaming comes in the form of internet and social word of mouth.

(last note: this is not endorsed by CheapyD or CAG ATM, but I gotta start somewhere...)

Now that that's outa the way, here's our featured game:

Haha that game looks pretty great. I especially loved the Castlevania reference with the death coming out of the clocktower thing.

It's not done. So far there's only the demo, but it's progressing nicely.

Sweet. I don't look for indie games, but it seems like not enough folks are either willing or able to pull off good Treasure homages.

you'd be surprised. usually if you miss an old style of gameplay that has been long forgotten, high chances there is or are indie games out there already made for that gameplay style. There's alot I haven't even posted yet that I think people would love that they would say "man this plays just like a ___ homage!"

OMG, I just played the demo. That game is amaaaaazing, and also mildly hilarious. I'll definately be looking for this one's release.

wow, they basically made this game for the DS - can't wait for some publisher to pick it up and get it on the DS.
