Games Still Matter

Back in October, I wrote about #GamesMatter, a giveaway that just gave games away to 1) Promote Indie  Games and 2) Be Nice To People. Games Matter is still going on. @IndieGamerChick holds them a lot still. They mostly giveaway PC Indie Games but occasionally they'll give away consoles/handheld games too.

December is a big month for Games Matter. Right now, Indie Gamer Chick has a big Holiday Giveaway going on. If you are in good standing with the giveaway, you can make a list of Indie games you want and she will try to get them for you. She wants people to ask for PC games mostly because console/handheld games are hard to get (because developers get less codes for them).

And so I entered the giveaway and asked for console/handheld games. I don't know if I'll get any but thats ok. I know its a long shot. That said, I hope if you have been involved in the giveaway before, you'll look into this special giveaway. It looks fantastic.

For those who want games for Wii U or 3DS, Indie Gamer Chick has said that she is working on a Twitter giveaway for Nintendo fans. She also has a giveaway in the works for other console gamers too. Console fans should definitely keep an eye on her twitter.

I love that this giveaway is still going on. Indie game are the future of third party gaming in my opinion. The current AAA third parties have gotten lazy. Most Indie developers, however, are always looking for new and interesting ideas. Any promotion or giveaway that puts the word out about Indies is a great thing.

Be sure to check out Indie Gamer Chick's website and her twitter.

I'll be back tomorrow with another Indie preview.
