"During the hour-long event, we got a look at 21 games from a variety of independent and smaller-scale studios. Regardless of whether you're looking for a quirky platformer, atmospheric puzzle game, charming life sim, or just some good ol' fashioned psychological horror, it's safe to say that this showcase had something for you. From Beastro and Big Hops to Mirria and Lucid Falls, here are the games announced at 2025's Day of the Devs showcase."
"I am already obsessed with Luckshot Games' Big Hops and it's not just because it has a fantastic name. In this 3D-platformer, you play as Hop, an adorable frog equipped with a tongue and a variety of neat tools that will aid him on his quest to build an airship and return home. What truly sets this game apart, however, is its creative gameplay, which sees you plant and utilize various vegetables to traverse levels."
"After playing the Demon Tides demo earlier this year, we wrote that the game "looks like Super Mario Sunshine if it were designed by late Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama," and really, what more is there to say? This platforming adventure game is stylish, frenetic, and one we've been watching for awhile. Fortunately, the wait is almost over, as the Day of the Devs showcase revealed the game is coming early next ye"
Double Fine Productions and iam8bit hosted Day of the Devs, presenting 21 independent and smaller-scale games across multiple genres. The showcase included quirky platformers, atmospheric puzzle games, charming life sims, and psychological horror experiences. Luckshot Games' Big Hops features a 3D-platformer starring Hop, a frog that uses tools and planted vegetables—mushrooms for bouncing, cacti for tightropes, and acorns that grow vines—to traverse levels while building an airship. Demon Tides delivers a stylish, frenetic platforming adventure compared to Super Mario Sunshine with Akira Toriyama’s influence and is slated to arrive early next year.
