All Right on the Knight
by Andrew Kepple.
Ok, no spoilers: in this game, you play as a little Knight who runs around and jumps, and… look, I don’t know. All I can say is that I’m a sucker for a good mechanical joke.
(The game’s made with a little puzzlescript/bitsy like platformer tool called Pocket Platformer, which is new to me, and seems really cool!)
The Interval
by Sean Noonan, Dave Zhang, Coff and Bertrand Guegan.
An earnest “Wolfenstein 3D”-like with some modern influences! The gameplay is fluid and immediately fun, the art colourful and full of personality, the music and sound design is great as well. It has a story too, which is slight, but kind of charming – you play as a time traveller chasing another time traveller through time. I like how it uses the time travel thing to justify its old school game mechanics.
Klifur
A neat little puzzle climbing game from the maker of last year’s “A Firm Handshake“.
(Did you know? Climbing routes in bouldering are called “Problems”!)
Ears Of The Killer
by garmentdistrict.
BB is back (this time, with her sister ZZ) to explore a new mystery in the latest “… of the killer” game!
I don’t know if the plan is to eventually put these in some kind of collection or what, but if you’ve been holding off for that: I wouldn’t! Think of each game like an episode of a weird cartoon-murder-mystery series – you really don’t have to start from episode one. It’s time to jump in!
