Games That Interested Me in 2024’s December Game Awards Showcases Part 1


Featuring games shown during: PC Gaming Show, #PitchYaGame, Indie Live Expo, Indie Awards, Wholesome Snack, Latin American Games Showcase, and Day of the Devs.


I had no idea there was a slate of showcases (+indie awards) going on. I only thought it was just The Game Awards and the Wholesome Snack Showcase (which I knew the latter was announced a month or two ago), so imagine my surprise when I saw emails about games announced at PC Gaming Show. Originally, I was going to not check these out since I have a lot to do, but I couldn’t stay away. So here are the ones that ended up interesting me. Of course, I’m going to link to all the showcase streams as my taste won’t match everyone’s. Also, if a game is showcased in more than one showcase, I’ll only include it once.
