"Late Afternoon Light"

since 2025 is wrapping up, i wanna share some of the games i've enjoyed this past year!

i originally posted these on bluesky, but i figured i could spread the good word of indie games here too :3

Juno 06

psychics duke it out in TRPG battles on the moon. your units start every battle at level 1, so you gotta strategize which units to level up during each combat encounter

Picayune Dreams

survive inter-dimensional bullet heaven hordes and bullet hell bosses with bumpin drum n bass and breakcore

it adds onto the bullet heaven formula by giving you a skill tree to craft multiple unique builds, plus a story exploring Cyl's torment nexus origins

Fear & Hunger

other people, when they feel miserable, will snuggle up with a cozy game and let the good vibes wash over them. when i feel miserable, i march over to Fear & Hunger to get my ass beat over and over and over

i enjoyed the oppressive atmosphere and puzzle-like battles!

Petal Crash

a competitive 1v1 tile matching slide block puzzle game where, when you make a match, those blocks push adjacent blocks. go for big chain reactions! the story mode features charming characters with fun dialogue ! i wanna play more eventually, i just suck sooo so so bad at it 😭

Soul of Sovereignty: Prelude

an ongoing linear visual novel by ggdg, best known for their webcomic Cucumber Quest. this story's a bit more dark and mature than CQ, and while it's still in its early stages, im intrigued by its dismal world and poorly coping characters

Pseudoregalia

3D metroidvania that SCHMOVES the story's almost nonexistent, it's easy to get lost in certain areas, and the combat is simple, but if you revel in complex 3D platformer movement you'll be in heaven. it took me a bit to get used to the wall kick, but once it clicked? ohhh baby

Formless Star

one of my favorite parts of Pokemon is collecting as many critters as i can and reading their pokedex entries, so a game that's focused purely on cataloguing cute silly creatures is right up my alley. every new discovery was exciting since all their designs are so fun and varied!

Wooden Ocean

what im currently playing!
