You may remember Google announcing that they were planning on holding a big indie game festival this fall in San Francisco. The event is still on its way, but the judges over at Google have narrowed down all the submissions to the top 30 that they believe are worthy of showcasing.
Right now, you can’t even get a look at the vast majority of the games that they’ve picked. Fully two thirds of them haven’t been released on the Play Store yet. However, you can give a few of them a whirl, such as Roofboot, A Matter of Murder, and Orbit.
