Stream: Queer Games Bundle 2023 showcase part 1
On this stream I start my annual look through some of the great indie games included in the Queer Games Bundle hosted on Itch for Pride Month. You can get the bundle of 467 items for US$60 (or on a sliding scale if you can't afford the full price) and directly support queer creators here: https://itch.io/b/1812/queer-games-bu...
Games played:
-Mire, by Bagelcollie. A pixel roguelike/Metroid-like, this difficult but cool game has you explore a cave system and fight animal bosses as a fox, but resets all progress when you die. https://bagelcollie.itch.io/mire
-The Fantaballous Tilt, by TerraDev64. A low-poly Playstation 1-style marble maze tilting game. The physics and controls are a bit wonky but the aesthetic carries the experience. https://terradev64.itch.io/the-fantab...
-Shell Out Showdown, by manadream. A pixel platform fighter, but with the nonviolent premise of vending machines throwing food at each other and trying not to litter. https://manadream.itch.io/shell-out-s...
-Chronescher, by PurpleSloth. This Monument Valley-esque puzzle game has the world shift as you shift your perspective on it. https://purplesloth.itch.io/chronescher
-Essentia Omnia, by Plate O’Meal. A complex and chaotic top-down alchemical puzzle game where you transmute various objects in the environment to solve puzzles. https://plateofmeal.itch.io/videogame
-After a While, by Sambero. A chill and atmospheric game where you cruise across a flooded world on your hoverbike. https://vila6.itch.io/after-a-while
-Eti Tyty 2, by Riuku. A cute orbital physics platformer, you have to use the various powerups in orbit to escape gravity and reunite with your bug girlfriends' spaceship. https://riuku.itch.io/eti-tyty-2
-Cat-cher, by fluffy. A nice little Commodore 64-styled breakout variant, where you bounce cats across the screen towards a goal platform. https://fluffy.itch.io/cat-catcher
-Pink Takes Shape, by LezLiz. A short and sweet nonviolent Metroidvania with an interesting chunky pixel look, where you collect animal forms for your blob to transform into in order to traverse further. https://lezliz.itch.io/pink-takes-shape
