Indie Megabooth will show these 24 games at GDC

The four-minute preview video above is as good a place as any to get a glimpse into the variety, quality and wit of indie games right now.

It’s a showcase of games being exhibited and demoed at the annual Game Developers Conference in San Francisco later this month. The Indie Megabooth is a cluster of pods, each one dedicated to independent games, and generally attended by the games’ creators.

This year’s GDC will see twice as many Megabooth games as any previous year, although the games are sharing time at the show. Some of the games are out already, while others are still in development and showing playable versions for the first time.

A spokesperson for Indie Megabooth told Polygon that splitting exhibitors across GDC — which has not been done before — allows indies to save on expensive hotel bills, and should give them time and space to experience the show, rather than being tethered to their pods.

Here’s the full list of games and when they’ll be shown. The video offers a better view of what to expect.
