Join us every week for our definitive one-stop podcast to quench your thirst for outstanding independent games. From clever old school 8-bit freebies to the best and brightest indie console titles, we bring you the news so you don’t have to go looking for it. Games you’d be hard-pressed to find coverage for otherwise, the 2 Girls are there to shed the light on an oft-neglected aspect of gaming.
With Comic Jumper on the horizon, we recently got to have a chat with Mike Henry of Twisted Pixel Games to discuss game design, platforming history, Twisted Pixel’s previous titles, and a little bit about how Comic Jumper will play out. If you’re stoked for the game, then you definitely won’t want to miss this [...]
With E3 over now the two girls take a look at some of their favorite titles revealed in the big announcements, both indie and otherwise. The adventure game giveaway announced in last week’s episode comes to an end with more discussion about a few new adventure titles that have been released this week, including the [...]
This week is all about adventure games, with the girls exploring Erin Robinson’s newest creation, Puzzle Bots, as well as a few other top notch adventure games that have been released recently. In addition to great adventure games, the girls take a look at some of the great games that have been released on Steam [...]
We’re back after taking a break for zombie Jesus Day and Overlord Ror hurdling headlong toward the grave another year at a time, this time to discuss a great mixture of games and even one sent in from a fan! Thanks, Mumbles! The Indie Fund has been looming over our heads since it was announced [...]
This week the girls are joined by Mårten Stormdal and Staffan Ahlström of Fatshark to discuss their latest Wild West shooter, Lead & Gold. We also have a look at Eskil Steenberg’s newly released not so massively multiplayer MMO Love and discuss a bit of our experiences while playing the game in beta. We’ve also got [...]
You’re probably looking at the main 2G1G site right now and thinking, “Puzzle Bots? Bob Came In Pieces? These aren’t real games.” While the indie developers of those games probably have a few things to say to you, a student team in Iran has heard your pleas for more violence, more blood, more gore.. and [...]
IndieGames.com ran an article a few days ago that detailed a new downloadable game by Japanese developer E. Hashimoto who is also responsible for Akuji the Demon. It’s a Castlevania style platformer that I downloaded as soon as the article ran, but it sat on my Desktop until today when I remembered it was Friday. [...]
Earlier this year Rock, Paper, Shotgun did a feature on Arcen Games’ newest endeavor, entitled A Valley Without Wind. The team got quite a bit of negative feedback in regards to the art direction and the perspective of the game, of which I must say included myself. I’ve expressed control concerns to the guys of [...]
Team Fortress 2 was a staple online Game for myself and Mahkia before the hat craze and Mann Co. store turned it upside down, so it’s my pleasure to let you guys know that the 8-bit TF2 demake, Gang Garrison 2 has received a much needed update. Thankfully, this update doesn’t include a shop for [...]
Yesterday I had the pleasure of spending some time in between setting up our new Minecraft server to play a new roguelike in development by David Williamson, also known as OddBallDave on Twitter and TIGSource. His new project is called Hack, Slash, Loot and it is the very embodiment of what makes roguelikes appealing. He’s [...]
This week’s Free Game Friday is a bit more emotional than normal. It’s an unfinished game by Joakim Sandberg, better known as konjak throughout the indie circle. Of course the game features outstanding platforming and truly beautiful graphics, but the real tragedy here is konjak’s post that led to him posting the unfinished version of [...]
Amanita Design is without a doubt one of my favorite indie developers, and despite their rather small library of games, each title, right down to their website menus, is a creative masterpiece. Responsible for such titles as Machinarium and Samorost 1 and 2, the Czech developers have recently announced not one but two new titles, [...]
Last year Sarah and I got the chance to sit down with Fatshark Games and discuss their Wild West shooter, Lead & Gold: Gangs of the Wild West. It was an entertaining romp through what makes Western-themed games capture the imagination. In fact, just about any time a game has the keywords ‘western’ in the [...]
So you can bust through hordes of zombies with your friends in Left 4 Dead with no problem. Maybe you can last more than 10 minutes in Nation Red with all your overpowered traits and power-ups. You’re a zombie killing machine. Dead Meets Lead wants to take you to school with that notion by offering [...]
