Screenshot on Saturday Mondays: charming building and watching the entire movie in an immersive simulation

Every weekend, independent developers brag about their current work on Twitter #screenshotSaturday label. And every Monday I bring you a selection of these shots and clips. This week, my attention was drawn to cute city buildings, decapitation horror movies, a demon skateboarding through hell, bouncing logos, handcrafted strategy, an entire movie set in an immersive simulation, and more. Come and enjoy these interesting indie games!

Skate Story’s infernal cheat (coming to Steam) still looks adorable:

I keep pausing this clip of the first-person melee roguelike Mortal Sin (coming on Steam) to check…is that a skate?

It’s time to “age medieval” with this deadly new roundhouse kick. If you feel like it, you can also attach a blade to your foot to deal massive damage!🦶🪓#screenshotSaturday #gamedev #unity3d # mortal sin pic.twitter.com/3ZO6a0ut3x

I’m very eager to play god over living dioramas in Gourdlets (demo available on Steam):

💖 gurdlets is a cozy sandbox where you place buildings and scenery and then watch the gurdlets go inside – no goals, no scores, just building #screenshotSaturday pic.twitter.com/wGyOGflqPJ

Not sure about the UI, but I like the handcrafted earth in Yield! (on Steam), a strategy game set in Anglo-Saxon Britain:

give! is a compact 4X meant to be accessible and deep. And a little cozy (for starters).#screenshotSaturday pic.twitter.com/Y0FqTKYzM3

I strongly endorse Spectra’s immersive simulation, including the entire out-of-copyright video:

Before #screenshotSaturday I really did. I created a fully working cinema (with a snack bar) and turned Spectra into “a game where you can watch Charade (1963) in its entirety starring Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn”#gamedev #imsym #Indie game #indiadev #eu5 pic.twitter.com/2ssUNkklwN

Stop being a monster and raise this little guy in adventure RPG EthrA (on Steam):

Not picking up Veil will cause him to react sadly. Make sure you pick him up by calling him back!#screenshotSaturday #madewithunity #gamedev #indiadev #Pixel art pic.twitter.com/ICiHUbSrnj

While the action survival horror Full Fathom (coming to Steam) is set aboard a crazy submarine navigating the sunken ruins of our world (I guess?), its biggest torment will surely be the missing screensaver logo reflecting perfectly in the corner:

I like the stream flowing through the cemetery in the action RPG Under The Island (on Steam):

Hello everyone,
I made some minor corrections in the cemetery (e.g. gate) and summarized the whole thing in the video. It’s just better in motion.
