recs & roundups
Themed roundups of indie games worth your weekend.
Recs5 Story Rich Indie Games With Cute Froggy Protagonists
With these types of heavily text-based and narrative-driven games, it's not easy to get the art direction, narrative, and emotional poignancy just right.

Recs3 Quirky, Nostalgic Social Media Simulator Indie Games
Recs5 Narrative-Driven Pixel Art Indie Games With Playable Demos
Recs9 Beautiful, Heartwarming Narrative-Driven Games to Follow
These 9 visually appealing games are beautiful in more than one way — the story and relationships in each are charming, heartwarming, and sometimes very personal. The games here are very diverse in art and genre, but their distinct, stylized art and moving story are the common thread between them all.

This list for #PitchYaGame round 3 is made up of my favorite story rich games out of the dozens that were pitched directly to Indie Story Games.
