Screenshot Saturday Sundays! Our weekly fishing journey by an ocean of game jams, prototypes and keenness tasks. After noticing a selected palette in my screenshot tenure to date, I’ve determined to veto the color orange this week. Had to be accomplished, I’m afraid. Instead, we’ve bought snowboarding simians, time-hopping detectives and an actual blast from the previous.
Kicking issues off… I don’t suppose anybody’s bought a pair quid I can borrow for the arcade?

Modus Interactive is a well-known identify to anybody who frequents the retro indie scare scene, showing on the Haunted PS1 Demo Disk with drug-fuelled cat horror Neko Yume. They’re not solely excited about spooks although – pegged as a “don’t shoot ’em up”, their newest game is a trendy side-scroller about gathering intel and conserving your craft secure from an onslaught of enemy fireplace. It seems to be – and sounds – effortlessly convincing.
For all of the chilly and wind and rain we’ve suffered the previous couple of months, we’ve had a pitiful quantity of snow up north. Still, I’m not satisfied any of Slopecrashers‘ simian snowboarders are wrapped up nicely sufficient to be spraying powder like this.
The animals now take a look at one another and at different fascinating issues across the monitor 🏂🗻#gamedev #ue4 #indiedev #indiegame #gaming #games #screenshotsaturday pic.twitter.com/ww2ZNpnav6

I’ve an actual tender spot for snowboarding games, even once they’re not pushing a zoo down a chilly hill. I someway by no means ended up taking part in SSX again within the day, thoughts. Instead, my brother and I replayed the identical demo of TransWorld Snowboarding on Xbox, which I’m simply studying was developed by arcade kings Housemarque. Huh!
Byteparrot’s zookeeping-on-ice affair seems to be prefer it’ll focus extra on racing than freeform score-attacks, however it’s scratching the identical itch to get again on the digital slopes.
After all that pleasure, I believe it’s time to sit down again, seize a drink, and watch eight hours move within the blink of an eye fixed. Wait, what?
Want to move a while? Waiting for nightfall? Find a diner or bar, and watch the world go by. #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #IndieDev #egx #egxrezzed pic.twitter.com/E2nqSaHGXp

I truthfully can’t inform if it is a lengthy play or some next-level shitposting.
