Welcome back to the NSG Indie Game Roundup, our monthly series featuring indie games news, plus game demo and new release discussions.
We are rocketing into the 2026 gaming showcase season, and the indie game announcements just keep coming!! This month we caught some exciting events like The Triple-i Initiative, Galaxies Showcase, Second Wind Showcase, Top Hat Studios Showcase, and we’re just getting started! Summer Game Fest is right around the corner, with even more gaming announcement goodness. But before then, we’re anxiously anticipating the premiere of the Six One Indie Showcase this next month in May! To prepare for that event, we got to chat with the one and only Kyle Stephenson of Six One Indie, about their process to put together this showcase and about the current state of indie gaming.
Also, huge thanks to our first Patreon supporters! In addition to other fun perks, members on Patreon get early access to all of the Indie Game Roundup episodes.

No Small Games is an indie game recap and review podcast brought to you by hosts Kate and Emily! They became friends while streaming on Twitch and bonded over their love of indie video games. In each episode of No Small Games, the two will discuss an indie game they both played independently. They’ll compare their experiences: the good, the bad, their most memorable moments of their playthroughs.
In this installment, you’ll hear their roundup of indie game news from April 2026, plus new releases and demos that they played recently, as well as a very special interview with Six One Indie Co-founder, Kyle Stephenson.
