« Review: Blast Works (1UP) | Main | Freeware Game Pick: Tiny Hawk (Pekuja) »

A couple of new sites about indie games to recommend.

Lithium Leaf is perhaps the pick of the three: hardly a single mention of anything else but indie games. The blog is also ordered very neatly, well-written, and updated daily.

Hardcasual is a little less indie-centric, but still has several lengthy articles on the subject of indie games. Helmed by Sam Ryan and Chris Plante (who also writes for a new GameSetWatch column named Why We Play).

Welcome to Special Round is rather similar to Hardcasual - a mix of commercial and indie games, plus everything in-between. Browsing through the archives, one can find reviews of Rom Check Fail, Mighty Jill Off, Flail and even a special feature called "Indie Ethics".

Also not forgetting auntie pixelante and the fantastic Indie Nation.

I suppose I'm not needed anymore... hahaha

seems over for you tim :D

oh noes... guess I'll just steal their content lol :D

Wow, thanks for all the nice things you say about Lithium Leaf. I'm flattered :D

Haha. Feel free to "steal" my content Tim

it ain't stealing unless you don't give credit to the person or blog you've "stole" the content from. XD

Also: Toastface. It's fairly new, I just thought I'd mention it.

Tim's blog is the best. ;)

Thanks for the shout out.

It's an awesome feeling when your favorite sites notice you. I imagine it's like how Courtney Cox felt when Bruce Springsteen noticed her amongst a crowd of fans.
