I had the opportunity to try the Beta version of Feed the Scorchpot, which is a neat indie game that's basically Catan with Balatro's big math energy. Basically, roll the dice to generate resources, cook recipes, and feed a dragon with exponentially higher scoring requirements. 1/2

When I set this page up, I remember seeing "0" followers and I thought:
How am I even going to get people to click that notify me button.
But here we are, cracking the triple digits 🎉

EEEEEEEEP
Anyone in my network here run successful Kickstarter campaigns and would be willing to give us some advice?
We’ve been cooking one up and would love some eyes on it! DM me or add me on discord @joshchiodo
Woooo we are getting back into videos again, a short to the point one with some Hidden Gems this month!

Next one coming at the end of the week 👀
I wrote a short blog post about my experience with the @indieformer.com #patchnotes game jam, and the story of how 86's went from Game Jam to Steam Demo in 5 months.
Nothing ever goes to plan, but the jam in September really took a turn for us.

A great little Waypoint update: List view!
Sometimes looking at the calendar can be a chore to hover over everything, so instead... now you can scroll infinitely through an ever-growing list of killer indies.

Very VERY cool to be featured in a physical magazine 🙏
Our dev is from the Czech Republic and he's been reading this since he was a kid. Another one off the bucket list ✓

Hahahaha, the dragon has a few quips up his... scales 😂
Awesome! Hope you have as much fun playing as I have 🙏
Extremely proud to say I put this trailer together myself for our upcoming game. A lot of creativity to try and bring a single-view board to life!

Just finished adding a bunch of new indie game releases for Jan/Feb. Go have a peek at some gems coming out in the next 30 days! → waypoint.indieformer.com
Maybe ask me how we go when our first game comes out later this year haha. Feels a bit like fever dream and just going with the flow 😵💫
The sleeper hit of 2026. Hee hee
It feels too quick to move on from 2025, but alas we're here. 2026.
Last year I collected as many interesting titles as I could find coming out, so here's a list of stuff you should keep an eye on, or maybe even wishlist.
