The Day I Became A Bird, a narrative game based on a children's book about a young boy who falls for a classmate who likes birds, is out on Steam, PS5 and Nintendo Switch for $20. [1]
The game uses a hand-drawn, painterly style and light puzzle-solving, and it takes about 1 hour to finish. The story follows the line, "The day I started school, I fell in love," as well as "All I see is her, but she doesn't see me." [1]
Far Far West, an early access co-op shooter from Evil Raptor and publisher Fireshine Games, sold more than 250,000 copies in its first 48 hours after launch earlier this week. [1]
The game also has a 10 percent launch discount listed until Tuesday, May 5, 2026, according to the roundup. [1]
The wider indie news roundup also flagged InterfaceX26, a Steam event that ran until May 4, and a tentative Punk Games Fest planned for October by artist and designer Brad Smith. Submissions for the fest stay open until July 23. [1]
