The Guerrilla Collective kicks off last week with the first of a two-day show with all kinds of indie goodness showing! You can find that list here. A week later, the second show is here. Let’s look at what stood out most for us in this one!
Behind the Frame (Steam and mobile)
Behind the Frame is a vivid, interactive fiction about an aspiring artist on the cusp of finishing the final piece of her gallery submission. Guide her brush strokes and locate the remaining colours around a cozy studio through a variety of puzzles to complete her masterpiece. As her painting starts to take shape, uncover an emotional tale of chance and artistry revealed behind unrelated yet familiar moments.
Black Book (Switch, PC, PS4, Xbox One) – Prologue already on Steam
“Black Book” is a dark RPG Adventure, based on Slavic myths, in which you play as a young sorceress. Fight evil forces in card-based battles and explore the world, where humans live alongside mythological creatures. Funded on Kickstarter in 2020.
No Longer Home (PC) – 2021, demo on Steam
No Longer Home is a game about letting go of the life you’ve built due to circumstances beyond your control. Immerse yourself in the lives of Bo and Ao and learn about their dreams, frustrations and fears. Welcome the magic of the everyday and somewhat extraordinary.
A semi-autobiographical game, No Longer Home was born when the developers were similarly forced apart after university, and decided to stay in touch by working on a game together. Development duo Hana and Cel chose this project as a way to explore and express the emotions that came with saying goodbye.
Potion Craft (PC) – demo now available on Steam
Potion Craft is an alchemist simulator where you physically interact with your tools and ingredients to brew potions. You’re in full control of the whole shop: invent new recipes, attract customers and experiment to your heart’s content. Just remember: the whole town is counting on you.
Slime Heroes (Steam) – planned 2023
A game where the slimes are finally the heroes. Play together with your friends as adorable slimes – the only thing that can save the world from the evil oozy creatures and formidable bosses. Discover different weapons and create your own unique magic abilities to express the way you want to adventure.

Venice 2089 – Kickstarter launching June 20
