Certain indie games do catch my attention in terms of the fluid pixelated presentation and in this case, Zhelter by Korean indie developer G1 Playground, shows off some good bits of shooting action, gathering resources, farming, and crafting in a cute cruel world. Like playing Harvest Moon but in a survival apocalypse with a fast-paced action shooting against zombies on steroids, this sentence alone sends me chills down the spine.
