Venba<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

First up, we got a look at\u00a0Venba<\/em>, a cooking game about an immigrant Indian mother in Canada.

It’s coming to Switch next spring.<\/p>\n

Goodbye World<\/em><\/h3>\n

Next up, it’s\u00a0Goodbye World<\/em>, a game about…well…making a game. Two struggling developers are trying to make a retro puzzle platformer, but the game is only partially about that; it’s also about their relationship as they try to navigate their jobs, friendships, and more. It’s launching later this month.<\/p>\n

Have A Nice Death<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

If you’re a fan of the macabre, you’ll love\u00a0Have A Nice Death<\/em>.

This one’s coming to Switch on March 22nd.<\/p>\n

Aka<\/em><\/h3>\n

Have you ever wanted to lie on top of a giant capybara and discover inner peace?\u00a0Aka\u00a0<\/em>allows you to do just that. You are a retired warrior, and you’ve come to a beautiful island to enjoy your retirement. You won’t find any conflict or shadows here, so you can hang out with animals and chill out at your leisure. It’s launching next month, on December 15th.<\/p>\n

Pepper Grinder<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

Name a more iconic pairing than Devolver Digital and pixel art sidescrollers. Pepper is a treasure hunter who must reclaim the treasure that was stolen from her, and to do so, she’ll dig through the earth with her trusty drill, as well as solving tricky puzzles, riding giant mechs, and much more. You’ll be able to dig into\u00a0Pepper Grinder\u00a0<\/em>next year.<\/p>\n

Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly<\/em><\/h3>\n

Coffee Talk\u00a0<\/em>returns for a second episode. You are a barista, and you’ll meet lots of quirky characters and discover their backstories as you serve them piping hot coffee.

Oni: Road to Be the Mightiest Oni<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

You’ll get to do this on March 9th.<\/p>\n

Desta: The Memories Between<\/em><\/h3>\n

From\u00a0Monument Valley<\/em>‘s creators, here’s a new ball game roguelite that looks a little like\u00a0Pyre\u00a0<\/em>meets\u00a0Transistor\u00a0<\/em>meets…well…Monument Valley<\/em>. The combat in this one looks pretty innovative; you’ll engage in turn-based ball game combat where you’ll need to pull off tricky ricochet shots to make the most of your abilities. This one launches in early 2023.<\/p>\n

A Space for\u00a0the Unbound<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

You might know this one from a controversy involving publisher PQube, but that’s a shame, as the game itself looks pretty awesome too. Set in rural Indonesia,\u00a0A Space for the Unbound\u00a0<\/em>is all about using your psychic powers to read the minds of those around you. It’s coming on\u00a0January 19th.<\/p>\n

Dordogne<\/em><\/h3>\n

Intended to evoke memories of summer nostalgia,\u00a0Dordogne\u00a0<\/em>is a painterly adventure that revolves around Mimi, who’s visiting her grandmother’s house. She used to spend her summers at the home, but now, she returns there as an adult to uncover lost family secrets.

Botany Manor<\/em><\/h3>\n

How good are you at botany? Well, you won’t need to be a master to enjoy\u00a0Botany Manor<\/em>. You are in charge of taking care of a manor’s gardens, and to do so, you must solve puzzles and catalog long-forgotten plants. Some plants will require more care than others!\u00a0Botany Manor\u00a0<\/em>comes to Switch in 2023.<\/p>\n

Once Upon A Jester<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

Some slightly awkward voice acting aside, this\u00a0Night In The Woods<\/em>-esque adventure game revolves around an improvisational theater company putting on shows. You’ll be able to act, sing, and dance alongside fun characters and take part in quirky adventures, but you’re also trying to carry out a heist involving a valuable diamond. This rather unique mixture of genres hits Switch later today.<\/p>\n

Rogue Legacy 2<\/em><\/h3>\n

Can heroes have chronic flatulence? What about being a vegan chef hero? Build up a castle, spawn countless heirs with various different traits, and adventure through an ever-changing series of lands in\u00a0Rogue Legacy 2<\/em>, which lands on Switch later today.<\/p>\n

Blanc<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

This one looks achingly adorable.\u00a0Blanc\u00a0<\/em>revolves around a wolf cub and a fawn who must work together in order to navigate various obstacles, negotiate frosty terrain, and just generally be painfully cute. There’s no dialogue in this one, so you can enjoy it whatever your background. It’s coming on Valentine’s Day next year.<\/p>\n

Sizzle reel<\/h3>\n

Next up, it’s a sizzle reel showing off some upcoming indies.

A Little to the Left<\/em><\/h3>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

This indie puzzler revolving around puzzles in ordinary locations is cozy and satisfying, according to its creators. Spoons, papers, cat toys, and much more need to be sorted, so make sure you organize things the way they should be. Just be aware the cat will mess things up! Over 75 puzzles await you on Switch when this one launches later today for Switch.<\/p>\n

Sports Story<\/em><\/h3>\n

With golf, tennis, and many more sports available in this sporting RPG, you’re sure to attain athletic excellence. You’ll also be able to explore the game world, chat with fun characters, and, uh, explore dungeons. Yep. It’s a pretty weird one, but it’s coming to Switch in December. Exciting!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
