“We’re super excited to bring this showcase to life,” said Andrea Alvarez, Marketing Manager at Joystick Ventures. “After the success of TGAGWCAGA, which ran for over two hours and featured more than 80 incredible titles, we had a ton of fun, but we knew we wanted to try something a little more compact this time around. SUGOI Showcase 2025 will be short and explosive, just 35 standout indie games that defy expectations and deliver in a big way. It will continue to highlight the indie titles that make this industry so special. No filler, just the good stuff. It’s going to be very SUGOI.”
