The Game Awards have enjoyed consistent growth since the first showcase took place in December 2014, to the point where they have become an integral pillar for the community, especially in terms of new reveals and announcements by developers and publishers all around the world. This year’s showcase, like previous years’, was another one to exhibit continued growth for the event.
Here’s everything announced at Day of the Devs: The Game Awards 2023 Edition

The latest edition of Day of the Devs has just ended.
Originally founded in 2012, Day of the Devs is a regular showcase hosted by Double Fine and iam8bit designed to promote upcoming indie games.
The latest show, desighed to launch the day before The Game Awards, featured a total of 20 games, and we’ve got details and screenshots for all of them below.
Whether you missed the show (in which case you can catch up on it here), or just want a closer look at the games in more detail, here’s all 20 titles, in alphabetical order.
Jonathan Blow, Thekla
Set to be released to commemorate the game’s 15th anniversary, this Braid remaster will be handled directly by Thekla Inc, the studio founded by Braid creator Jonathan Blow.
It will feature “hand-repainted graphics” by the game’s original artist, as well as improved animations with extra frames for smoother motion, and improved audio, including new mixes and variants of the soundtrack.
Perhaps most ambitious is a planned “extensive and detailed commentary track” which will contain over 15 hours of commentary by the game’s creator Jonathan Blow, as well as nine other contributors.
Paul Hart and Lee Williams, Akupara Games
“Say anything in Cryptmaster – the bizarre dungeon-crawling adventure where words control everything,” says publisher Akupara Games.
“Gather your party of undead heroes, then fill in the blanks to uncover their lost memories and defeat eerie enemies, all in the service of a mysterious and capricious necromancer.
“Along the way, choose your words carefully to conquer strange quests, charm weird characters, and play a variety of unexpected mini-games.
“From dark fantasy fishing to bard rap battles, you’ll need to stay light on your feet and quick in your fingertips if you want to survive long enough to conquer the Underland and unleash a whole new kind of spell casting.”
Cobysoft, Hyper Real
This pshychedelic adventure follows protagonist Mush as they make their way to a job interview for the mysterious role of Dome King.
The game is part visual novel and part monster-collecting RPG, with a sound track that “seeps into your very soul”.
“The narrative is told through an unmistakable, perception-bending style by the solo-developer Cobysoft Joe,” says publisher Hyper Real.
“Dome-King Cabbage is a vibrant collection of psychedelic visuals, warbled beats, and colorful stories that connect in a harmonious way because of this singular vision.”
Fighting Chance Games
This 2D fighting game has a roster made up entirely of real-life drag queens.
Fighters include a selection of stars from RuPal’s Drag Race and Dragula, including Alaska 5000, Asia O’Hara, BenDeLaCreme, Kim Chi, Landon Cider and Laganja Estranja.
“Drag Her! is a high-drama, effusively camp 2D fighting game
