Indie Day on PC: Abyss Kitchen Leads July 24 Releases
Dungeon cooking, co-op goose chaos, and Arctic survival headline a PC-only slate
A quiet but varied Friday, all on PC and all indie. Leading the day is Abyss Kitchen, a survival action game about cooking your way through a dungeon, backed by a co-op goose comedy, an Arctic survival sim, a cozy time loop mystery, and a turn-based RPG. Something for most tastes here.
Abyss Kitchen#
Pico Games' Abyss Kitchen casts you as Lop, a cook accompanying a party of adventurers and guiding them with the power of food. This is survival action with a kitchen twist: you feed yourself in the dungeon and eat whatever you can find to keep from starving and falling down. The pitch is straightforward and a little unhinged - eat up anything that stands in your way. If you like your dungeon crawls with a resource management hook that revolves around food, this is the standout of the day.
An Eggstremely Hard Game#
Bbear Studio delivers exactly what the title promises. Two geese, one fragile egg, and infinite chaos. An Eggstremely Hard Game is a co-op physics platformer about carrying that egg through unpredictable challenges without breaking it. Every crack makes things harder, every mistake more entertaining. It leans into teamwork, clumsiness, and, naturally, honking. Grab a friend for this one.
Arctic Shift: Fuel Station#
Wildbyte's Arctic Shift: Fuel Station puts you in charge of a remote fuel station deep in the Arctic. You manage customers, supplies, and vital systems while surviving brutal weather, wildlife, and isolation. A focused sim for players who enjoy running a lonely outpost under pressure.
Aster Pebble and the Case of Bad Bureaucracy#
Wandering Door Games offers a short and cozy point-and-click time loop mystery. Aster Pebble and the Case of Bad Bureaucracy follows Aster on her first adventure in a modern fantasy world, solving mysteries and helping people while overcoming bureaucracy through direct action. Expect oddball characters and a funny, low-stress tone. A good pick for a single-sitting adventure.
B-Prison Unchain#
RiceReng rounds out the day with a turn-based RPG. In B-Prison Unchain, you play Misa, the supposedly strongest soldier in the Demon Realm, hunting the legendary incubus Asmodeus. Battle through the succubi prison, recruit allies, and survive traps set by enemies packed with tricks to slow you down.
Five PC indies, no crossover with consoles today, but a decent spread across genres. Which one is landing on your wishlist? Drop your picks in the comments and let us know if you've got a co-op partner lined up for the geese.
