Do you guys remember back in 2009 when a little known developer won the IGF China award and skyrocketed towards popularity? That developer, Farbs, has kept his promise of delivering new content in the saga of Captain Forever–this time releasing the third episode titled Captain Impostor. Captain Impostor continues the tradition of adding fresh and [...]

Each Thursday Browser’s Best profiles a trio of web-based/flash indie games, selecting one of the three to spotlight as the week’s must play.
Join me for our inaugural Browser’s Best piece, where I try my hand at playing these little chunks of joy and subsequently recommend any I find with merit to you. Exciting! Well, perhaps not as exciting [...]

If you’re looking for a nice little escape from the early week funk check out Jake Elliot’s browser based platformer Beluah & The Hundred Birds. Just you, some arrow keys and the birds. Use your big bird to gather all the little ones, find keys, unlock doors, all the good stuff you’ve been looking for.
The [...]

If browser-based tower defense happens to be what you’re buying right now, I’ve got the goods. Defend Your Honor has you in control of one also-ran to prove that you actually have a little bravery and courage, which you’ll be able to show obviously by locating the Golden Statue for the Walrus King.
Like any good [...]

Zero Point has announced the release of a browser-based minigame to show off ahead of their AAA indie Interstellar Marines.
The web game, Bullseye, is similar to a simple FPS tutorial stage, having players shoot targets, but there’s more to the idea than that, as the dev tries to give you a feel for their upcoming [...]

Amanita Design’s highly acclaimed Machinarium is one of those rare success stories of a game that truly goes above and beyond its expectations. The simple mechanic of point-and-click is beautifully orchestrated in the hand-drawn graphics of this robotic adventure. Although gamers from the states have been able to enjoy Machinarium, the UK audience has yet [...]

If you’re finding that originally great ‘four day weekend’ feeling melting into a puddle of confusion on what to do with the extra 48 hours, may I suggest a little flash gaming? I was directed to the browser-based puzzler Red Remover from a Reddit post I came across yesterday, though I’ve been informed from a [...]

You read right! Australian developer Farbs, with whom I conducted an interview not too long ago, has finished the follow-up title to Captain Forever. You can find Captain Successor, another Flash based title, on the website today. As a matter of fact–just as he promised–to celebrate the release of Captain Successor he has made Captain [...]

Ninjadoodle’s handcrafted puzzle title ClickPLAY 2 is a very enjoyable (eventually frustrating) game that stands on the use of a simple gameplay goal: locate and hit the play button in as few clicks possible.
The developer has done an excellent job of making a variety of different creative puzzles to solve in which you piece together [...]

New Zealand-based indie developers Rock Solid Arcade have released the fourth installment in their top-down action/RPG shooter series, Robokill Titan Prime. You must cleanse the giant space station, Titan Prime, of the evil robots that have taken it over. Unlike most other top-down shooters, Robokill boils down to how well you can customize, create, and [...]
