Welcome to Episode 39! Jeff returns from the Video Game Summit with stories from the show floor and a retro game hunt through Chicago, including a stop at Back in the Game in Cicero!

This week’s indie lineup includes:

Towaga – Jeff blasts through waves of enemies in this visually striking survival game. Great story, but is the gameplay loop too repetitive?

Axe Cop – Wielding an axe against dinosaurs? Jeff dives into this chaotic RPG based on the cult comic.

They Came From Another Planet and Dreams of Aether – Xander gives updated impressions of these unique indie titles from last episode.

💡 New and Noteworthy Indie Picks:

Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon – A co-op roguelike dungeon crawler.

Heroes of Mount Dragon – Classic beat-‘em-up vibes with a modern touch.

Ruffy and the Riverside – Puzzle-platforming with a Paper Mario aesthetic.

Garbanzo Quest – A retro-inspired platformer with an adorable mascot.

ROBO OH – Famicom-style mech fighting mayhem.
