It's nice to see developers working with their kids' imaginations. Have you played Sissy's Magical Ponycorn Adventures yet?

Retro/Grade

Has anyone heard of this game? Apparently it's been on Steam since March and this is the first I've heard of it. A rhythm + shmup + in reverse. Looks like it has a ton of polish, it's out now, supports a controller, and is $10! Very tempting.

This beautiful beat em up from China is making its way to US from the publishers of A.R.E.S. The game has stylish graphics and loads of combos. What more do you want from a beat em up?
WANT!!!

So any of you play The Swapper? How is it? Also, anyone know if there are any differences between the Vita version of Stealth Inc and the original Stealth Bastard on PC?

Finished The Swapper last night, I'll be putting my thoughts in the Beaten thread later today. (It was great).

The Witness
This game has some great visuals and an interesting premise it should be a nice change of pace as well as a game that has a unique kind of appeal to it. Probably my most anticipated game of the year (If it even comes out this year.)

Owlboy

This one won't be just another old school style Indie game, it also seems to have a real old school heart to it (ya know what I mean?).

Hasn't Owlboy been around for years? Are they finally planning on finishing and releasing it?

The indie scene is definitely hard to keep up with. I'm subscribed to feeds just from Indie Game Reviewer, Indie Statik and IndieGames.com and there's no time to follow all the releases they list let alone playing them.

I usually check Kill Screen and Venus Patrol, but I think this thread keeps me up to date even more often.

Has anyone played Samurai Gunn yet? I'm not even 100% sure if it's out, but it looks really fun.

Pocket Rumble

^this game looks awesome. It's inspired by SNK's NeoGeo Pocket Color games. Sadly, the Kickstarter is over in a couple days and has not even reached halfway. But maybe Project Greenlight would help make this happen?

Shovel Knight

*click for new trailer*

This game has already been talked about on the forums, but the new trailer that just got released further highlights what an awesome looking platformer this game will be.
