<p>Four titles are lined up for release &#8220;over the next several months&#8221; and include some developers that are quite exciting. The Odd Gentlemen, the team behind <em>The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom</em>, are bringing a game called <em>Dueling Gentlemen</em> to Home. Also, The Peanut Gallery, who entertained thousands last week with <em>pOnd </em>and their student title <em>Spectre </em>a few months ago, are dropping <em>Minor Battle</em> into the new partnership. Codename have developed a game called <em>Super Awesome Mountain RPG</em> and lastly Lazy 8 Studios have created a multiplayer version of <em>Cogs </em>to throw into the arena.</p>
<p>Altogether this further solidifies Sony&#8217;s interest in the indie marketplace on top of last month&#8217;s <em>Joe Danger</em> and the pending release of <em>Slam Bolt Scrappers</em> down the line. Microsoft may have it&#8217;s own channel, but Sony&#8217;s the one making the forward strides.</p>
<p>While the current headline reads &#8220;teaming with indies,&#8221; we as gamers can only hope the future will read &#8220;teeming with indies.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.diygamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/pondImage3.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-9574 alignleft" title="pondImage3" src="http://www.diygamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/pondImage3-300x225.jpg" alt="pondImage3" width="300" height="225" /></a>It is an exceedingly gorgeous morning on the shores of Maui today, so I&#8217;m going to keep this short.</p>
<p>Mike has kicked off the week by getting our <em><a href="http://www.diygamer.com/2010/07/raising-bar-xbox-live-arcade-limbo-review/" target="_self">LIMBO </a></em><a href="http://www.diygamer.com/2010/07/raising-bar-xbox-live-arcade-limbo-review/" target="_self">review</a> up along with an <a href="http://www.diygamer.com/2010/07/limbo-xbox-live-arcade-walkthrough-achievement-guide/" target="_blank">excessively detailed walkthrough and achievement guide</a>. When the game drops on Wednesday, make sure you come right back to get through the toughest puzzles in the game and get to the finish.</p>
<p>Personally, I&#8217;ve been busy travelling, but that didn&#8217;t keep me from checking out the fantastic new interviews that Dejobaan Games have been throwing up on their new website <a href="http://indiesuperstar.com/" target="_blank">Indie Superstar</a>. Their articles are a great look at the inside of the indie gaming world FROM the inside of the indie gaming world, so I suggest you start keeping an eye on their progress.</p>
<p>Did you guys all get a chance to play <a href="http://www.diygamer.com/2010/07/mysteries-relaxation-pond/" target="_self">pOnd </a>last week? The problem with writing about pOnd is that you inherently spoil the fact that there is a surprise at the end by simply telling people to go play the game and keep playing the game. Surprise-expectant or not, I still suggest you take a look at the game.</p>
<p>Our latest <a href="http://www.diygamer.com/features/podcast/" target="_self">podcast </a>was quite good, if a bit long. Mike joined us this time around and we dug into a lot of issues and altogether stayed interesting for over an hour. If you haven&#8217;t already make sure you subscribe to our iTunes feed.</p>
<p>I think that&#8217;s all that&#8217;s on my mind in the indie gaming world for the moment. I&#8217;m off to go find some giant sea turtles and secretly pine away at the fact I don&#8217;t get to play <em>LIMBO </em>until I get home from vacation.</p>
