Will possibly unveil this ULTRAGAME later next month at Develop in Brighton and I envisage the following reaction by the audience of 6 (including doorstaff)….

posting early because I’m cooking fritters tonight. Dom Bird – PROVE it.

see also gt#280 & gt#247 and let’s face it, loads of other previous for similar spins on this idea. It’s almost as if I get can only get my kicks drawing interscale warfare.

Talking of scale please ignore some shockingly incorrect scalings in the pic – if those are mice, how SMALL is that cat ?! and how BIG is that ant !?

Every month, as part of the regular monthly meetings of the Austin, TX independent game community JUEGOS RANCHEROS, we do a very casual & chatty rundown of the ten or so games from the previous month — both local and global, and both indie and occasionally a bit-bigger-budget — for the audience, to give people — especially those curious onlookers from outside the indie community itself — a look at what they may have missed.

In keeping with the tongue-in-tobacco-packed-cheek tone, we call these run-downs A Fistful of Indies, which are be presented here on Venus Patrol for your reference, each fully-annotated, -linked, and off-the-cuff blurbed, in addition to their home on the JUEGOS RANCHEROS site.
