I play a selection of games in the Itch bundle supporting victims and families of Robb School affected by gun violence. Get the bundle in the next few days here [ https://itch.io/b/1401/bundle-for-uvalde ] otherwise you're still able to support the Memorial Fund and check out the games and creators who contributed to the bundle.

There's a nice variety of indie games in here, with a fair few NES homebrews included, plus the Code Zone Retro pack containing some of my childhood favourites from Expert Software's 40 Games [watch my brother and I playing that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDJemexhU2A ]. Games played:

-Oh, I'm a Cat Now I Guess, by Max Oakland. A very cute game made in Mosi, which is like an enhanced version of Bitsy. A decent-sized adventure full of charm and amusement, where you play as a cat! Max even stopped by during the stream to chat a bit, which was awesome.

-DE '22 by Eric Mack. A great little Game Boy Colour homebrew. It's a Donkey Kong pastiche with three levels plus boss. There's some tricky traps and platforming but it's well made and looks lovely, especially the cutscenes.

-Doodle World, by Nate Peters. This is a very charming NES homebrew game made with some input by Nate's young daughter Araceli. The visual conceit of a child's drawings come to life on paper—complete with enemies made of stationery items—is superbly done, and it plays well too. I played through the whole thing and had a great time!

-Kubo 3, by SJ Games. Another father-child NES homebrew collaboration, this was designed by seven year old Seiji and coded by his father Dale Coop. Kubo is some kind of teenage mutant turtle... sounds familiar... The top-down hub leads to four side-scrolling areas then a final zone, and I did it all. It's pretty cool with its childish naiveté.

-Nix: The Paradox Relic, by Chronicler of Legends aka Dustin Huddleston. Essentially a furry version of Metroid, in this NES homebrew you play as a wolf-anthropomorph bounty hunter exploring an open sidescrolling world in search of pirates and new abilities. The sprite graphics are nice and detailed, and I enjoyed exploring even though I got lost a lot. After the rough second boss fight I decided to stop, but it's a nice game for sure.
