Indie Interviews: Kissy Kissy! (Gamescom)
When people talk about why they enjoy the indie scene, very often you’ll hear them talking about how they enjoy that the games are different from bigger productions in how they’re more personal and charming.

One of these games was reky, from Greek developer beyondthosehills, which was published through Plug In Digital earlier this year. We spoke to the team at beyondthosehills about the development process behind reky. Continue reading “Indie Interviews: reky (Gamescom)”
