SUMMARY
Welcome back to Indie Game Preachers! 🕹️
❤️ Happy Friday Everyone! Let me know you’re favourite indie games as of late! I’m looking for more gems to promote here. All emails welcome! :)
Game #1 - Far Fishing
FISHING + UPGRADES = PERFECTION
GENRE: CASUAL, FISHING, ARCADE, RELAXING, EXPLORATION
AVAILABLE ON: WINDOWS, STEAM DECK (VERIFIED)
l’ve played a ton of games based on the fishing + upgrade formula and I NEVER get tired of them!
Far Fishing is no exception! It’s a short, chill fishing game.
You sail toward the edge of the world, catch fish and slowly upgrade your boat along the way.
Fishing is simple. Chase fish with your boat and keep them inside the circle to catch them.
You’ll visit 9 different locations, from coral reefs to volcanoes and jungles. Each place has its own vibe.
It’s calm, repetitive and easy to relax with. The whole experience is about 2 hours long.
You can’t go wrong with a good fishing game.

Game #2 - An Incremental Game That Is Also A Platformer
I LOVE HOW UNIQUE THIS CONCEPT IS!
GENRE: 2D PLATFORMER, ACTION, CLICKER, IDLER, AUTOMATION
AVAILABLE ON: WINDOWS, LINUX
This is a really innovative idea for an incremental game!
I love when an incremental game gives you an actual job to do. A lot of the time incrementals can feel like a re-skin of other incremental games because they are completely passive but have a different context.
Not this one! IGTAP is an incremental game mixed with a platformer. You complete short platforming challenges to earn currency.
Then you spend that currency on upgrades to earn even more.
The beautiful thing is that the better you are at platforming, the more money you can earn. Your skill is rewarded.
The upgrades you buy allow you to complete the courses even faster, keeping the game exciting as you progress.
You unlock new movement abilities, find faster routes and discover better money-making paths.
You can explore for hidden bonuses or optimise everything for max power.
Platform. Upgrade. Repeat.
I’m really looking forward to the full release. You can play the demo now!

Game #3 - Horsey Game
A BRILLIANT FEVER DREAM OF A GAME.
GENRE: SIMULATION, LIFE SIM, SANDBOX, CREATURE COLLECTOR, 2D
AVAILABLE ON: WINDOWS
Do you like horses? Do you like makin’ money?
Then PLAY THIS NOW!
Horsey Game is exactly what it sounds like. You collect horses, breed horses, race horses… and even genetically modify them.
Start small, build your stable and turn it into a horse empire. You can create the perfect horse paradise - or just focus on getting rich.
Breed naturally… or speed things up with CRISPR.
It’s chaotic, silly and a great example of the freedom indie games have to be creative!

Game #4 - The Norwood Suite
DAVID LYNCH WOULD LOVE THIS HOTEL…
GENRE: FIRST-PERSON, EXPLORATION, SURREAL, ADVENTURE, GREAT SOUNDTRACK
AVAILABLE ON: WINDOWS, MAC, STEAM DECK (PLAYABLE)
The Norwood Suite is a surreal first-person adventure set inside a strange hotel.
You visit Hotel Norwood on a simple errand… but things quickly get weird. The hotel is full of odd characters, hidden rooms and secrets tied to a missing composer named Peter Norwood.
You explore at your own pace, talk to guests and slowly piece together what really happened.
It’s mysterious and driven by music and atmosphere.
A mystery David Lynch would be proud of!

Please Wishlist my indie game! ❤️ IF YOU LIKE CHAOTIC GOLF GAMES, YOU’LL LOVE IT!
I’ve been working on my own indie game called “Drive You Crazy Golf”!
The idea is simple… can you beat 100 hole-in-1s?
It’s a brutal mini golf challenge for 1 to 4 players.
If it interests you, then it would mean the world to me if you could wishlist it!
(I’ll have some new updates for you all soon!)
Thank you!!!!
Game #5 - TR-49
WWII COMPUTERS AND SECRETS!
GENRE: INVESTIGATION, STORY RICH, PUZZLE, ALTERNATE HISTORY, MYSTERY
AVAILABLE ON: WINDOWS, MAC, STEAM DECK (VERIFIED)
TR-49 is a narrative mystery game set around a strange WWII computer hidden in a church basement.
A voice comes through the speaker asking you to find a stolen book. The machine holds a huge archive of books, letters and journals. Your job is to search it, connect clues and uncover the truth.
You link texts together and map the archive, in order to figure out what’s really going on.
It plays like a deduction game mixed with an audio drama. Quiet. Tense. Smart.
The dev team made A Highland Song which is a really underrated indie game!
