Steam Summer Sale edition

Let's talk indie games! Hello indie game fans!Have you seen the Steam Summer Sale?! I'm sure we all have. Over the weekend I made the mistake of checking out my Steam wishlist to see what was on sale. It felt like everything was on sale and I got a bit of decision paralysis. So, I thought for this month I'd focus on games I love that are currently discounted on Steam, and hopefully you'll find something new to love! Which brings me to my favourite game of last month! Recently I've been...

Let's talk indie games! Hello indie game fans!I'm dragging myself away from Stardew Valley to bring you this months email. I hadn't played it in five years, and now it's all I've played in the last week (or more). There is just so much more to do and find since I last played! Another Crab's Treasure has been calling but Stardew continues to win the battle. I plan on marrying Harvey, just in case you wanted to know. I've never married him before because, well, he just seems a bit dull....

Let's talk indie games! Hello indie game fans!March has only just begun, but it's looking like a huge month for indie game releases!

Luckily, I have a controller, but of course I was drawn to games that prefer keyboard and mouse like A Little to the...

Let's talk indie games! Hello indie game fans!This newsletter is a bit late! That's because I decided to include some Steam Next Fest demos for you to check out in case you're completely overwhelmed. There are so many of them! More than 1000 I hear. Usually, I recommend story rich demos, but this time it's been different. I've been drawn to sims and platformers. What have been your favourites from the festival? Not everything has been Next Fest, though. So what else have I been playing?...

Let's talk indie games! Hello indie game fans!Wow! 2023 was a landmark year for indie games, bursting with extraordinary game releases almost daily! That's why I'm going to discuss my top 3 games of 2023 instead of the January new releases. There aren't many coming up anyway, so that makes it an easy choice. I am looking forward to Turnip Boy Robs a Bank on the 18th, though. When deciding my top 3 I had to go back and work out what games were released in 2023, because I was struggling to...

Let's talk indie games! Hello Reader! Welcome to the very first Find the Strawberry newsletter! November was a huge month for indie game releases. There were so many excellent games released, that it seems impossible to find the time to play them all. Fortunately, things are winding down a little in December, so we can all catch up with some of our favourites. Recently I've been playing... American Arcadia! Welcome to American Arcadia! The reality TV show that follows thousands of people who...
