Wholesome indie games to make you feel a little bit warm and fuzzy. 🥰 Inspired by Wholesome Games.

Errand Boy

developed by Tree Interactive

The world is ending but you are an optimistic delivery monster who is determined to be a positive influence on the people you meet.  Help them with their problems by running errands and trying to raise their spirits.  Maybe, hopefully, you can shape the future into a better outcome. :-)

This is still a bit early in development (I think!) and I don’t have too much information on it but you can follow the developer on Twitter or take a peek at the teaser trailer.

Orange Island

developed by Ted Sterchi

“A new retro single-player 8-bit action-adventure platformer game being developed by former SEGA designer Ted Sterchi.  This game is being carefully developed to be a completely authentic experience, fully created under the graphic and audio specifications of the NES.

“Explore a pastel-hued island while uncovering mysteries from the past.  Players will explore a vast island, swapping between five different playable characters who have their own unique magical abilities and discovering who is best suited for different areas and obstacles. This is an island that will reward the curious with plentiful secrets and hidden ancient relics to be found.

“One normal Summer vacation soon turns into a generational tale about family, friendship, hope, bravery, and our impact on the environment.”

Pupperazzi

developed by Sundae Month

“Snap photos of dogs while maintaining your social media presence.  Will you hound celebrities in public, or would you rather be taken seriously as an artist?  Perhaps you just want to show your friends the cute dog you saw while you were out.  It’s your choice which direction your career goes, don’t screw up!”

“When you finally give up your dreams of a stable life as a photographer, commiserate with other amateurs through local multiplayer dog-spotting competitions.  True beauty comes from within, but we think in-game photos are major competitors.”

Simmiland

developed by Sokpop Collective

“In Simmiland you create a small civilization that you can only influence indirectly by playing cards to the land, such as plants🍃 and minerals ⛰️. Playing a plant on a grass biome tile will result in a wheat plant, but playing a plant card somewhere else will also create something else. Try to experiment as much as you can!”
