Thank goodness those only show the good ones! I was scouring around on the site once and was so shocked to find so many horny, crappy (free) games. I was a bit scarred after that.

Edit: See https://www.indiegala.com/showcase. Very big NSFW warning now, but that Teen Witches one got me (I'm pretty sure it didn't have an NSFW warning before, but I think it got enough complaints).

Just watched a brief walkthrough of this game, looks like its very frustratingly difficult!

Thanks.

I'm not a gamer and I don't normally use Windows. So this isn't really aimed at me.

I clicked on "Theatre of War 2 -- Battle for Caen". I was interested partly because of the Canadian involvement in that battle. Only Britain is mentioned in the blurb. And it is an add-on to another game, not standalone. Interesting that they spell Theatre the non-US way.

"Conway's Game of Life (Python)" seems out of place. There have been an enormous number implementations in the last 50 years. Conway died of COVID-19. He was a remarkable mathematician. I met him once.

How do you try random games like these without being fearful of security threats?

Ahh, actually I'm not a gamer too! I'm just part of the "games collector" club -- adding a bunch of games to the library and never actually doing anything with them. I don't even have the launcher installed, so I can't even play any of these games! If I did have time, I'd be playing the more well-known titles before I'd ever reach for any of these ones.

But you do raise a good point! I'd assume Indiegala would vet the games they allow to be posted up, but I'm not sure how rigorous they are. I'd hope they're as good as Apple in allowing what's in their App Store, but I'd still be weary.

Hey, that's pretty cool you got to meet Conway! (Rest in peace to him).
But yeah, the game with its title like "(Python)" does not look professional too. I'm guessing some of these developers are hobbyists who are hoping to make a name for themselves...?

Hmm! Not sure what you're referring to. Is that a game's title? Sorry hahaha.
