3rd Anniversary of PixelProspector!
Well well…PixelProspector just turned 3 today!
To celebrate the 3rd anniversary of PixelProspector I have created a new video called 44 Free Indie Games In 4 Minutes (Multiplayer Edition). Enjoy!
Since I started the site in 2009 I met lots of great people and learned quite a bit about many things.
Here goes out a BIG THANKS to all the developers who create great games and to all PP visitors for checking out the games and spreading the word about them and the indie resources.
Thank you for all the support and feedback over the years. :)
Update: Gabe of J-OMG wrote a nice retrospective about PixelProspector.
Upcoming
I originally planned to release the Marketing Guide For Indie Devs today… but I am not satisfied with it contentwise and thus I have to rework and restructre some areas of the guide.
I really want to release it asap but it just takes much longer than expected.
Sorry to delay it once again but it will definitely be worth the wait.
However to shorten the wait time and give you a little preview of the guide I will release the “How To Contact Press” chapter later this week.
Moreover here are some of the illustrations for the guide by Dom2D.
As soon as the guide is finished I will continue to work on the Platformer Tribute Site that will be called JumpJumpShoot.
La-Mulana
La-Mulana is a huge action adventure platformer with about 20+ hours of playtime. Explore big levels, fight enemies, collect stuff and solve different puzzles…
The original version is available for free and the remake is available for 15$.
The game is currently exclusively available via the Indie Game Store Playism. (There is no client needed. Basically you create an account and then after paying you can download the game)

Forget-Me-Not
Forget-Me-Not is a lovely arcadey dot gobbler where you swirl through various mazes to collect food and kill enemies. Imagine Pacman with a gun in a neon world. I think the game would have been a big hit in the 80s.
The game offers a 2 player co-op mode and is available for Windows, Mac and iOS.
