THE MOST RIDICULOUS INDIES WE COULD FIND
At MAG West this year, a couple of our Ravens shared some of the ridiculous indie games we’ve come across over the years. Some of these are new, and some are old. Either way, you can be sure they are unlike anything you’ve seen before.
Squirrel with a Gun
Developer: Maximum Entertainment
Release Date: August 19th, 2024
Platforms: Steam, Epic Games, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5
This ridiculous indie is a nutty sandbox shooter and puzzle platformer featuring crime and mayhem in pursuit of golden acorns. Play as an obnoxious squirrel with a gun as you terrorize the neighborhood. Fight tooth and claw and gun to escape a secret underground facility and defeat evil agents. In this game, you’re able to upgrade your weapons and locate the other secret bunkers to take down elite bosses and even blow up a tank! In this sandbox adventure, you can explore the world by running around or cruising around in a toy car. And yes, you can even ask for nice pets from curious passersby. Helping people out in the neighborhood allows you to exchange things for goodies (or you can mug them). You can even unlock cosmetics to create your own personal squirrely style.
