Pumpkins, Frogs, and Odinfall | The Indie-Credible Podcast 27

In Episode 27, Xander and Jeff jump back into the indie trenches with pumpkin-smashing sequels, Viking roguelikes, and frogs that just won’t cooperate. It’s another packed session of gameplay impressions and indie previews, with plenty of laughs along the way.

Newest Indie Games Played & Discussion:

• 100 Pumpkins 2 – The graphics got a glow-up, but the gameplay sticks close to its roots. Still fun, still chaotic, still a lot of pumpkins.

• Odinfall – Jeff dives into this Norse-themed roguelike and, well… dies. A lot. But there’s promise here for anyone who enjoys the “get good” loop.

• Frogue – Weird controls and questionable accuracy make this frog-themed roguelike a tough sell. Moving between set points feels clunky, and throwing your weapon doesn’t always land.

On the Horizon – Indie Games We’re Watching:

• BPM: Bullets Per Minute – A rhythm-based FPS where every shot is timed to heavy metal beats. Think DOOM meets Guitar Hero.

• Kemono Heroes – Pixel-art side-scrolling action with co-op play. Feels like a love letter to retro arcade classics.

• Spilled! – A unique indie with a standout art style and emotional storytelling.

• Pull Stay – Beat 'em up meets tower defense in this quirky, humorous mash-up.

• Voidborn – An atmospheric roguelike shooter that challenges your skills while immersing you in its world.

From dying in Odinfall to pumpkin mayhem and a rhythm FPS that could melt your face, this episode brings the full spectrum of indie gaming chaos.
