To have a good time the American post-Thanksgiving retail hellday of Black Friday (which appears to be finished within the UK too now?), the fab DRM-free ‘indie’ retailer Itch.io shouldn’t be holding a sale. No massive sitewide reductions. No queues. No doorbusters. Instead, they’re merely donating their reduce of gross sales to charity. That’s the Itch.io Black Friday Not-Sale. They’ll give their portion to The Nature Conservancy, who’re attempting to guard this blue marble we stay on, and The Trevor Project, who assist LGBTQ youth in America. Itch have loads of games I’ve fortunately purchased full-price so hey, why not immediately?
Itch lets builders select how a lot of a reduce the positioning will get, so that you gained’t know the way a lot your purchases will put in direction of charity, however I suppose both means it’s going someplace good. The makers of some games, together with A Mortician’s Tale and Jettomero have made clear they’re taking no reduce. 2064: Read Only Memories truly costs more than usual to bung more cash in direction of charity.
You need suggestions? RIGHT. First-person vignette ’em up Paratopic is a few cracking horror. I picked up Genderwrecked within the Halloween sale and have since been delighted by this humorous, considerate, and surreal visible novel. Hell, The Haunted Island, a Frog Detective Game got here out yesterday and I heard it’s nice. Actually what, I like to recommend everything I recommended in the Halloween sale. It continues to be good, and immediately is a haunted day – or cursed on the very least.
Dominic Tarason chips in with suggestions for this bundle from Owch, which truly is on sale, and Beat The Art Breaker too.
Go get games. And perhaps share some suggestions of your personal?
