I really like thinkygames.com for puzzle games. I am looking for something similar keeping the indie game coverage but less specific to a genre.

Where do you guys get your news from?

Bonus points for interviews with developer/director and a RSS feed.

I’ll shill up for skill up’s website that spun up from his ‘This Week in Gaming’. He has some great coverage on indie games and always dedicates a segment to ‘put this on your radar’.

Paul Tassi from Forbes also has some really good takes and sources in the industry for those AAA games.

    tripleiris@peertube.wtf on Peertube covers indie games. They made a video of indie gems over the summer sale and the ones I tried were great.

    On that note, there was a site called ninja something as I recall about 10 years ago or so that I liked that would review and recommend indie games. I couldn't find it recently. Anyone maybe knows or remembers what I am talking about?

    Comment section of AA or AAA gaming news in r/games or r/pcgaming

    I have a good track record with

    "if you are interested in past AAA game like X, look at small y" comments from "decently acting" users

    I follow GOG RSS feed, a good chunk of it is indie games (not just "old games")

    Kitfox games has a YouTube channel where they show off a bunch of their current and upcoming games. Often videos by the developer themselves.

    I don't have a more general type site.

    Recently this channel came up in my feed. There's a few like this, that will highlight interesting games on Steam that haven't had much attention.

    Best Indie Games youtube channel. Probably don't need anything else but I also follow a few rss sites for game update news like Blue's News, gamingonlinux.

    I like seeing the developers talk about the games they work on. They are on BlueSky social

    I mainly like Toby fox’s account on there
