The 2023 Humble Games Showcase has dropped new information on eight upcoming indie titles, including a playable musical, a beat-’em-up using the power of the weather, and more.
Stray Gods, an”interactive role-playing musical” as described by developer Summerfall Studios, showed some of its unique visual novel-style gameplay, which uses musical numbers to progress the story. The trailer also revealed an impressive voice cast, which includes Laura Bailey as protagonist The Muse, Lauren “Lolo” Spencer, Ashley Johnson, Felicia Day, Erika Iishi, Rahul Kohli, and more.

Also featured was Breeze In The Clouds, a side-scrolling beat-’em-up infused with fighting game mechanics. The main character Breeze can perform parries, air combos, and more, while using weather-based powers to enhance their attacks. The game was one of two games shown that are supported by the Black Game Development Fund, with the other being Protodroid Delta.
Bo: Path of the Teal Lotus was also shown during the showcase via a trailer highlighting both its Japanese folklore aesthetic and a gameplay style echoing games like Hollow Knight. Players will control Bo, a small fox-like creature, as they travel the world wielding a dual-sided staff.
