So, there’s this thing called indie.io. It’s like a video game platform where they buddy up with all sorts of developers. And, surprise surprise, they publish games. Tons of them! Some of which are actually on sale now on Nintendo Switch. The sale’s up till July 30, by the way. (Just in case you’re like me and procrastinate on everything.)

They’ve got games in every possible genre — cozy adventures, RPGs, games where you collect creatures, you name it. If you’re curious, go check out the full sale. But hey, here are six games I thought were pretty neat. Let’s dive in—oh wait, first a quick side note: one of the titles totally made me laugh. But more on that later.

### Echoes of the Plum Grove
20% off

You know those farming games everyone seems to love? This one, Echoes of the Plum Grove, adds a bit of twist. Picture this: you wash up on a shore, instead of having a giant plot of land handed to you on a silver platter. You start small, but you could end up with a whole dynasty. Get friendly, or well, not-so-friendly with your neighbors. Maybe poison an enemy or two? Just a thought. Anyways, the island’s got mysteries too, if you’re into that sort of thing. The game looks kinda cozy, 2D folks in 3D spaces. It’s like they intentionally mixed styles. Or maybe I’m overthinking it.

### Dark Deity
75% off

Okay, so Dark Deity is like, a must if you’re into strategy RPGs. Build armies, lead them through turn-based fights—it’s intense. You’ve got 30 characters and if they fall in battle, they don’t just poof back to life. They’re scarred. Like, literally. Their stats drop, and you’re left figuring out strategies. 28 chapters to power through, and hey, they’ve got this DLC for more adventures. It’s called “Suns Out, Swords Out” — love it.

### Coromon
50% off

Now, Coromon’s got over 100 monsters for you to train. Remember those old monster catcher games? This is like that, but with more layers. Skills take SP, so use them wisely. And each monster’s got traits. It’s the kind of thing where, if you’re not careful, everything can either go perfectly or terribly wrong. There’s a wild storyline too—six biomes and some mysterious threat. More plot twists than your average monster game, for sure.

### Cat Cafe Manager
40% off

Just the name cracks me up. Cat Cafe Manager. Guess what you do? Yeah, manage a cat cafe. Could’ve guessed, right? You inherit a cafe in Caterwaul Way. Renovate it, bring in strays. It’s all about balancing the cute cats and even cuter decor. You make pals with the locals too. I mean, it’s hard work. But kinda fun. There are mysteries around town which—yeah, didn’t see that coming, honestly.

### 9 Years of Shadows
35% off

Here’s where it gets funky. 9 Years of Shadows, a Metroidvania. The world’s lost its color. For nine years. (No joke.) You play Europa, and with a floating bear, Apino—whoever thought that up?—you bring color back. The game’s got this killer soundtrack, composers from Castlevania and Metal Gear Solid. It’s cool. Fighting corruption, trying to fix everything… It’s epic.

### Mail Time
30% off

Wrapping up with Mail Time. Almost feels like coming full circle. This one’s all about relaxation. You’re a courier delivering letters in a folksy forest. Just you, nature, and the animals. No stress, no rush. Get your glider upgraded, explore, and… kinda just be. It’s that simple. And sometimes, simple’s all you need.

Alright, there it is. A bit messy, a bit fun, and a whole lot of games. Check them out, or don’t. Up to you, really.
