Day One - Releases for July 2024
Here are a handful of amazing indie games releasing in July. Go wishlist them and try out the demos before they release. This is Day One.
Anger Foot by Free Lives
Anger Foot is a first-person shooter (or kicker) where you bust down doors and kick the living daylights out of everyone in your path. That’s as far as I will go in describing the game. Just go wishlist it and kick some ass with the demo.

CLICKOLDING
Strange Scaffold is on FIRE! This year alone they have already released Life Eater in April, and the demo for I Am Your Beast this month was such a huge hit Steam asked them to keep it up longer. Then without much of a warning they unveiled their new game trailer and a hasty July 16th release date for CLICKOLDING. It’s also the first game to be published by Innersloth’s, who you might recognize for their wild hit Among Us, new publishing company Outersloth.
The shadowy figure lurking in the corner of your hotel room is silently urging you to click. His eyes gleam with an unsettling anticipation as he watches, waiting for you to comply. CLICKOLDING is a sinister, incremental narrative game that pulls you deeper into its dark and twisted story with every click.

Steam Summer Sale
The SALE is live now and I figured I would put together a curated list of favorite indie titles on sale now. You can see it all here.
Quest Vibes July
On the first of each month, I release a newly updated Quest Vibes playlist featuring music from gaming soundtracks and gaming-related songs. You can read a more in-depth post about why I picked the songs for this month's playlist and more here.
I have received feedback for the playlist to be featured on other music streaming sites. Spotify is where I have started the playlist and I am now adding Youtube/Youtube Music as a secondary play. Click the image below to find the new Quest Vibes July playlist or click here.
Also, here is Quest Vibes: Sanctuary, our archive of all the best songs in gaming. Here is the home for each archived playlist, all in one place.
