Indie Mega Booth Roundup: A Look at the Latest and Greatest in Gaming
One of the most exciting aspects of attending gaming conventions is discovering new games and developers that you may not have heard of before. The indie mega booth is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the latest and greatest in independent game development. In this article, we'll take a look at some of the standout titles that caught our eye during the convention.
First up is Dusk, a fast-paced shooter that challenges players to compete against each other in a battle of wits. The game's unique mechanics involve using a thumbstick to propel yourself around the map, trying to throw your opponents off balance and gain an advantage. With its emphasis on timing and strategy, Dusk is a game that requires skill and patience to master. We're excited to see how the game develops in the coming months, particularly with regards to its online multiplayer capabilities.
Another title that caught our eye was Assault Android Cactus, a bullet hell game that promises to be a thrilling experience for fans of the genre. With its challenging gameplay and varied levels, Assault Android Cactus is a game that will test even the most seasoned players. We were impressed by the game's level design and the different boss battles that await players in each zone. While it's still in early access, we're eager to see how the game develops and whether it'll live up to its promise.
Next up is Canon Brawl, a game that promises to be a hilarious and chaotic experience for players of all ages. This party-style game involves building structures and cannons to defend your base against rival opponents. With its emphasis on strategy and quick reflexes, Canon Brawl is a game that's sure to appeal to fans of games like Worms and other multiplayer titles. We were amused by the game's concept and can't wait to see how it develops in the coming months.
For those who enjoy hacking and cybersecurity, Dark Net is a game that promises to be a thrilling experience. Developed with VR technology in mind, this puzzle game involves navigating through virtual environments, taking over nodes and collecting virtual currency along the way. With its immersive gameplay and fast-paced action, Dark Net is a game that's sure to appeal to fans of strategy and adventure games.
Last but not least, we have Super Meat Boy Forever, a new installment in the beloved platformer series. This game promises to be an endless experience, with randomly generated levels that will keep players on their toes. With its challenging gameplay and varied difficulty options, Super Meat Boy Forever is a game that's sure to appeal to fans of the original. We're excited to check out this game and see how it develops in the coming months.

as well as phantom glass the ultimate gorilla glass screen protector for your mobile device all right guys welcome to our indie mega booth top 5. just as a note games we've covered before are not going to be in this so stuff like zing and distance are here and they're awesome but i'm not going to cover them in this top five because i've covered them before in the past so let's get right to it the first game and i don't usually admit this but my favorite one here was rockets rockets rockets i played against nick crazy game it's all about shooting insane amount of rockets you're this little spaceship thing and you got to fly around and it's all directional with a thumbstick you pick where you fly and it's thus thruster-based movement so if you push your thumbstick in one direction it's going to try to throw you in that direction so you have momentum and you're going to fly all over the places tons of fun and you're shooting an insane amount of rockets at each other it's all about timing your shields so you have to pop your shield on which doesn't last forever and try to block either the rocket or use your time shield to smash into the other dude while he doesn't have a shield on and you have to try to mix that all together and it's very fun because it's really really really fast paced it's on steam right now for early access they're rolling out big updates every month i believe it's about five dollars right now not all the features are in there obviously because it's early access which i know not a ton of us are actually fans of but it will be releasing i believe sometime in q1 or q2 of 2015 if you're interested in it it'll be up one to four players it's gonna have solo modes you can have online multiplayer a lot of the stuff again isn't in the game yet but tons of it will be there so i would highly suggest checking it out i know i'm going to it's a lot of fun secondly in no particular order there's assault android cactus which is a super fun bullet hell with a in my opinion not that fantastic name but you'll remember it so i guess they got that job done it's a bullet hell where you can play one to four players with four players it's more of kind of like a party mode with an insane amount of enemies and with one player it's more tactical and precise and you have to be very careful it's interesting tons of different levels boss modes all that kind of stuff and i'm pretty sure they can have online multiplayer later i believe it's in early access right now so i believe you can check it out on steam so yeah if you're into bullet hells maybe check that out then we come to canon brawl a game where if you're sitting next to the person you're playing against i wouldn't even be that surprised if it gets physical because what it is is it's kind of like a worms esque style map you have your main base and you kind of have to build cannons and shields and other kind of structures to fight with the other guy and whoever destroys the other person's base first wins but because of how the game is paced i fully expect you to end up punching the guy before you actually win we'll see how that goes for you i believe it's on steam early access right now so you can check it out it's quite a bit of fun if you're into that kind of bass versus bass style game then we come to dark net a hacker game but a hollywood hacker game like pretty much all of them are the idea is it's a vr game in oculus it's coming to whatever platform it's supported in later on they're pretty much just tying themselves to vr in general and it's a it's a puzzle game you get different things like worms and viruses and all that kind of stuff you have to go through and take over nodes you get money from taking over the nodes and you can buy more viruses and whatnot it's fairly standard puzzle game but it isn't kind of like a hacker environment so if you're into that kind of scene maybe you'd like it check it out on steam i believe it's in early access not now but he said soon so whenever that is and last but not least is super meat boy forever this isn't necessarily a new idea as a super meat boy but the idea behind it is that you pick kind of a difficult difficulty or a zone and then it just randomly generates the levels for you that's why it's called forever you could potentially play this game forever and i expect quite a few of my friends to pretty much do that i have quite a few people that i know that love super me boy including linus so i'm sure he'll be excited to hear about this as i've been watching their randomly generated content and it all seems quite quality so i'm excited to check this game out as well all right guys i hope you liked our indie mega booth roundup you can check hopefully links for those games in the description down
