Indie game developers share their work progress every week on Twitter with the #ScreenshotSaturday hashtag. In this piece, we take a look at the most interesting and eye-catching screenshots or short videos of indie games shared on Saturday, May 28th.
GameLuster has a Screenshot Saturday round-up every week. You can check out the previous list here.
Super Adventure Hand!
After playing Elden Ring, most of us have been traumatized by creepy hands. Maybe all we need to do to move on from that experience is to play as a creepy hand ourselves! This video from Super Adventure Hand! was shared by the developer (@zworp) in this tweet. We get to see the disturbing animations of this adventurous hand finding its way through different platforming sections, and flipping off the evil feet. You can wishlist Super Adventure Hand! on Steam right now.
World of Reinvention
This screenshot from Would of Reinvention was shared by the developers (@WoReinvention) in this tweet. The game’s cartoonish 2D art style and unique, somewhat creepy character design make for a memorable scene. We hope to learn more about this game and see more of it in the coming weeks.
Encased
This short video from Encased was shared by the developers (@DarkCrystal_HQ) in this tweet. In the short scene, we get to see some of the game’s impressive environment and visual effects. Encased is a sci-fi tactical RPG game, and has seen very positive reviews since its release in 2021. You can check out the game on Steam right now!
Book of Travels
This stunning art from Book of Travels was shared by the game’s developers (@MightAndDelight) in this tweet. If it wasn’t for the Screenshot Saturday hashtag, we would just think this was a masterful piece of art shared by a talented artist; we are so lucky that this is actually a video game! Book of Travels is available on early access on Steam right now.
Hop for the Best
Ever since I played The Neverhood as a kid, I’ve been wondering why we don’t see more video games made in claymation style. Luckily, this video from Hop for the Best, shared by the developers (@Splashfiregames) in this tweet, is here to introduce us to an upcoming platformer that might revive some wonderful nostalgia for us gamers. If you like how the game looks, you can follow their upcoming crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and support the development soon.
