Personally for me, Indie devs like @tallstorygames.bsky.social and @dave.powerhoof.com are pushing gaming boundaries with creativity and fresh ideas. I have been doing QA on The Drifter and it is a masterpiece! Heir of the Dog is looking incredible and I can't wait to get stuck in with the testing.

This really is exactly what the description says, and I mean that in the best way (also features Harry Goodsir, not that that swayed me)
