Games We Played (And Loved) At Dreamhack Atlanta 2024
Mike, Kyle, Harry, and Becca from the Six One Indie team were recently invited to Dreamhack 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia. Now that we’ve had time to process all of the amazing indie developers we met and games we played over the weekend (and have thoroughly digested the questionable number of Monster Energy Drinks we drank), we wanted to put together a list of some of our favorites.
Travel On, Pigeon Preview: Sights, Sounds and Lots of Hats
Sometimes you just have to accept that a pigeon has better dance moves than you.
These Scary Indie Games Are the Perfect Choice for Halloween
I’ve put together a little list of games we think are must plays for All Hallow’s Eve (and beyond if you’re a creature of the night all year round like the rest of us).
Caravan SandWitch Review: A Simple Yet Grand Adventure

Solace Creek Preview: Don't Waste Your Coins
You don’t want to know what happens when you run out of coins for the Coinmaker.
Mouthwashing Review: Hopes, Dreams and Marizpan
It’s time to take responsibility. I hope this hurts.
One-Eyed Likho Preview: Ignite the Evil
Sometimes knowledge isn’t worth it when the journey to find it is so dangerous, but they say knowledge is only gained by those who have seen Likho.
Fishbowl Preview: Happy Fishy, Happy Memories
We all know what it was like to juggle life in isolation. Keeping in contact with family and friends proved difficult, not to mention trying to keep up with work and daily lives. Games like Fishbowl gives players a glimpse at what life was like during isolation and, if its current demo is any indication, is set to be an beautifully emotional experience.
Octopus City Blues Preview: Tentacles Are My Grandpa
We’re all living in the same timeline as I Am Bread and Goat Simulator just to give a few examples. But, in spite of the strange timeline that we’ve all found ourselves a part of, no games, at least in my career, have ever been quite as weird as Octopus City Blues.
Sliding Hero Preview: Slippery when Wet
Sliding Hero is a top-down puzzle Metroidvania where sliding is key. Whether it's the game's unique playstyle, Metroidvania mastery, hand-drawn pixel art, or every area's complex puzzle, Sliding Hero contains something for players looking for something fresh.
Sorry We're Closed Preview: Look Into My Third Eye
How can something be entirely new but also brilliantly nostalgic? Just ask the team behind Sorry We’re Closed.
Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island Preview: Make Friends with the Gods
Being stranded on a deserted island doesn’t sound so bad if you’re there with a bunch of Greek Gods and Goddesses.
Once Upon a Rogue's Tale Preview: Heart of the Cards
Once Upon a Rogue's Tale is a rogue-like deck builder in early access based on childhood fan-favorite fairy tales. The game features a solid but familiar formula, but it's refined to make or break a player's playtime. What is here has the potential to be remarkable.
Mouthwashing Preview: I Hope This Hurts
This may be true in some contexts but for the crew of the spaceship The Tulpar in the upcoming psychological horror game Mouthwashing, pretty much every endgame scenario is just plain bad.
Floridale Man: The Joy of Chaos Preview: You Can't Tune a Fish, but It Can Be a Weapon
America is a large country made up of 49 beautiful, interesting, and diverse states. And then there's Florida.

What might you do if your home was in danger? Stay, and risk losing the life you’ve built for yourself, or run, leaving everything behind?
Scramble Star Crossing Preview: When the Stars Align
Scramble Star Crossing is like a shooting star leaping through the sky, defying the laws of mundane and creating an absolute blast of a demo!
Cabernet Preview: Try the Wine It's Delicious
Cabernet from Developer Party for Introverts is a story rich RPG where you play as Liza, a recently turned vampire who must come to terms with her new lifestyle. Do you have what it takes to make difficult choices while attempting to maintain what’s left of your humanity? Or will you descend into madness?
The Edge of Allegoria Preview: I Suck At Fishing
Looking for an adventure game that encourages you to fu*k stuff up just because? A game where being a badass is a prerequisite and violence is required? Welcome to The Edge of Allegoria.
The Quiet Things Preview: Heavy with Perspective
The Quiet Things truly delivers is a short yet meaningful experience told through a perspective that matters, and it does it in a way that feels authentic and makes it stand out from the myriad of other experiences like it.
