The indie-focused Day of the Devs is nearly here.That's the portion of Summer Game Fest where smaller publishers step into the spotlight.It tends to be a worthwhile watch, often eclipsing the main show.
Get ready to tune in on June 6.What's on tap this year? Heart Machine's 2D sidescroller will make an appearance.If you like hand-drawn art, horror and visual novels, this is your game.(Oh, and don't forget "very hot" demons!)We'll also see more of Outersloth's "nightmarish life sim" .
That title has a killer elevator pitch."After quitting her dead-end job, Fiona starts over on a farm and becomes the immortal herald of a dead god." (As one does!) maker House House is on the schedule.That will presumably mean a closer look at .
The "cooperative online walker-talker" eschews the hardcore competition common in online gaming."Our favorite part of playing online coop games is when they give you enough direction for the group to keep up a good momentum," the studio said in 2023."But it's relaxed enough that you're mostly just able to enjoy spending time with your friends." Expect a chill time with delightfully strange characters.Expect much more beyond that small sampling.
Day of the Devs kicks off on June 6 at 7PM ET.You can also stream it on YouTube and Twitch.Engadget will also be on the ground at Summer Games Fest with plenty of first-hand impressions.
