Oh this is cool. Ive never heard of this before, i love seeing games from other countries besides the us and japan getting some support.

@moschidae - Same! I had a few days off work so got to play Alba: A Wildlife Adventure, Aspire: Ina's Story and Bright Memory Infinite made in England, Brazil and Korea respectively ^_^.

Regarding the China Hero Project as far as I can tell Sony have offered marketing support, additional funds and advice as part of this since China opened up permission for games to be developed on consoles in 2015. Having seen how the projects have progressed Sony are now adding publishing and development support too to some titles. They have announced the games in phases and many here have yet to release. I bought F.I.S.T which I hear is a great Metroidvania but have yet to play it.

The India Hero Project is just in it's starting phase allowing people to submit submissions.

Wow, I hadn’t heard about this before either, but I love it. Wish it was getting more attention so more of us could know about it. The media is so dominated by news about what’s next for the big, mainstream companies that cool and unique stuff like this flies way to under the radar.

Thats really interesting and i agree it should get more attention. Some of the best indie games ive ever played were from people who loved their homeland and set their narrative in it. Even if the location isnt the main focus its still always cool to see little differences in how we live....thanks for introducing this to us, real neat

Evotinction, Lost Soul Aside and AI Limit I think are the one's I'm most looking forward too. Great to see these games getting more attention.

@Detectivefail - Yes I'm interested in all of those too! I'm curious about Hardcore Mecha as well.

Added Will-Less which has appeared on Backloggd.

One of my old friends from Australia told me about Lost Soul Aside when that first tech demo came out years ago. Since then I have been keeping up with it and am hopefully ready for a release soon! Definitely will look into the other ones as well. Immortal Legacy looks like it could be my style.

Added Daba: the Water Scar, The God Slayer, The Winds Rising and Exiledge as they have Backloggd pages now. Currently complete until new announcements.
