PSP2, Switch 2 and Xbox... a brighter portable future? (Updated)

A Quick Dive into Indie Heroes Collection 1

 At first glance, I wasn't that excited by Indie Heroes 1, announced last week. However, since then I've taken time to read opinion from some true retro-indie buffs, my interest is rising fast. Having taken a look at the games in action, I can see why the Evercade team has picked them, to save you some effort, here are the highlights.... 

Flea, Lowtek Games (NES) Recently Kickstarted as a hardcore platformer 


Doodle World, Nate Peters (NES) 


Anguna, Bite The Chilli Productions (GBA)


Foxyland, PSCD Games (Mega Drive) A cute-em-up that made it to the Vita last year


Alien Cat 2, PSCD Games (Mega Drive)


Debtor, PSCD Games (Mega Drive)


Ploid, Nape Games (NES) 


Uschuen, Nape Games (NES) 


Kubo, SJ Games (NES) 


Deadeus, Izma (Game Boy)


Quest Arrest, John Roo (Game Boy)


Twin Dragons, Broke Studio (NES) 



Also in the collection are endless runner Chain Break from 1985 Alternativo (Game Boy) and Super Homebrew War, a Smash-style battler from Bite The Chili Productions (NES), but no obvious trailers or easy-viewing video for them. 

Currently playing on my Vita/PS4/PS5
