Gone Home & TowerFall are IndieCade 2013 finalists

This year's IndieCade finalists have been announced

The 2013 IndieCade festival has announced its list of this year's best indie games, a list totaling 36 titles. The list of finalists include Fullbright Company's Gone Home, Matt Makes Games' Towerfall, Capybara's Super Time Force, and Cardboard Computer's Kentucky Route Zero. These finalists were chosen from over 850 submissions from developers worldwide.

"The true theme of this year's festival is growing diversity in format of games, and a growing emphasis on social play - multiplayer games, games that are played in public or in groups," explained Sam Roberts, Jury Chair and Festival Director, IndieCade "This year, the diversity and excellence of our submissions continued to grow."

In addition to 36 finalists, this year's IndieCade festival will host another 120 playable games, including Depression Quest, Mainchi, Tenya Wanya Teens, Valdis Story, and Dominque Pamplemousse.
