Most Popular Recommended Games

Hi, I’m Anthesis and welcome to a very SPECIAL EDITION of Indie Game Preachers!

This is the last edition of 2024 and I just want to take a minute to thank you and also look back on our journey together so far!

(NOTE: I’ve also included our 20 most popular recommendations of the year below in case you missed any of this year’s editions.)

A Personal Message To You:

I started Indie Game Preachers this year on November 1st as a passion project to help spread the word about brilliant indie games!

The indie game scene is really starting to take flight and new games made with so much love and joy are being released every week.

I’m so happy to be a part of the indie games scene and will continue to preach and support new indie games.

We’ve already grown to 3,000+ readers of Indie Game Preachers and I’m absolutely blown away.

THANK YOU!

It truly means everything to me. I hope I’m able to keep bringing you new and exciting indie games that will bring joy to your life.

Just by opening and reading my newsletter you are helping change my life.

Thanks again and I’m looking forward to building an even stronger community in 2025!

What’s Next?

I want to continue to develop and grow Indie Game Preachers into an awesome community that is about sharing our love for indie games.

Currently, it is a bit one sided as all communication is via the newsletter. I get a ton of amazing replies which I’m so thankful for - please continue to reply to my emails! (If I haven’t replied yet I will hopefully be up to date by this Friday)

I love the community votes which helps us connect, but I’d like to do even more.

I’ll likely open a Discord in the next few weeks to help us communicate and discuss indie games that we love.

It’ll also be a good place to connect with others and play indie games together.

Secondly, I would like to start a Youtube channel that focuses on indie games and community gaming competitions.

I think this would be a really fun way for us all to connect.

So keep an eye out for the Discord and Youtube launch in 2025. :)

Lastly, I Need Your Feedback:

If you could share what you’d like to see from Indie Game Preachers then that would really help me out!

I want to make IGP the best it can possibly be.

Let me know what you think is missing from the indie game scene and I’ll do my best to try make it for us!

All feedback helps - good or bad! 😊

Happy New Year! - From Anthesis
