Every weekend, indie devs show off current work on Twitter's #screenshotsaturday tag. And every Monday, I bring you a selection of these snaps and clips.

Check out all these attractive and interesting indie games!

Projection-mapping minigolf onto a pop-up book is a lovely idea which I assume will bounce around alt controller showcases at games event:

The maker of The Ramp, 2021's cool minimalist skateboarding game, is now making a snowboarding game but I cannot escape the fear that a yeti is in pursuit just off-screen:

Blue jeans and flesh-eating fiends in Hollowlands, a supernatural shooter built on an updated Doom engine and set (I think?) in the American South:

I've been hard at work overhauling the sprites for basic zombies in Hollowlands.

Another big vista to look upwards at comes from this as-yet-unannounced game:

And another big place seen in a tech test for Imperfect (coming to Steam), a horror game inspired by the art of Gustave Doré:

This #screenshotsaturday I’m sharing something that is a really big deal to me but probably not to you. I’ve been struggling with managing the clutter of some of my scenes due to my unique art style.

I'm happy to check back in on Tiny Glade (coming to Steam), a diorama-building game in a similar vein to Townscaper, and see that yup it still looks cute:

A pleasing number of particles in GoldenEye-y shooter Agent 64: Spies Never Die (coming to Steam, with a demo there now):

Rapid switching between shootman and violence orb looks interesting in Go Mecha Ball (coming to Steam):
