Independent Games Festival Finalists
It's always a pleasure when the Independent Games Festival announces its finalists. The following is taken from the IGF website, and if you click on any of the links, you'll be taken directly to a description of the game and its website.One strong trend I noticed this year: the number of games that have music game/rhythm game elements incorporated, including one (Fret Nice) that even allows you to use a guitar controller.
I'm going to try out as many of these games as I can in the next week or so, and I'll let you know how it goes.
