- Spindle is OUT NOW! - 13 October 2025
Greetings everyone!Our friends from Wobble Ghost have just released their first game and we've played it on the last convention we visited some time ago. And if you are looking for an oldschool (and yet somehow modern) interpretation of the Zelda-Formula (especially the Phantom Hourglass one), you really should take a look at this one. It shares the same idea as Pocket Wheels basically. Bringing back was lost among modern games. Give that oldschool feeling, just how you remember games.

Pocket Wheels @ Gamescom 2025 I'm incredibly happy to announce that Pocket Wheels is part of this year's Indie Arena Booth Gamescom lineup 🎉 From August 20 to 24, I will be at the Deck13 Spotlight Indie Arena Booth in Hall 10.2. If you are planning on being there, I would love to chat! For this occasion, the demo's content has been doubled... To make the game more accessible for first-time players, I've added a quick and fun tutorial that teaches you the basic mechanics in an intuitive way! Once you've mastered this new section, you're teleported to a small hub world. From there, you can either choose to play the previously available level or venture into an entirely new adventure. This new level is packed with thrilling races and quests set among wooden floors and lush greenery. There's even a tree house! (trying very hard not to spoil all the fun exploration here) You can play this d…
