One of the hallmarks of the indie game scene is the sheer variety of experiences that game developers make available from week to week, and our latest curated collection of August indie games only provides further evidence to back up this fact. Please don't put any further research into the topic, though - can you imagine how embarrassed we would be if you discovered we might be lying? We would be very embarrassed, we can assure you! So believe us, just this once, OK? OK.
August has already provided a crop of wonderful experiences, with the likes of Hamsterdam, The Church in the Darkness, Exception, Anodyne 2: Return to Dust, and DARQ ready for harvesting - find out more about those indie games in our 'upcoming in August' video, which you can spy over here.
While you're at it, you can have a gander at a selection of indie games launched during the first week of August through here, just don't gloss over our latest curated collection of indie game releases from the second week of the month, all bundled together below:
