April was a busy month for indie games this year. It seems like every game jam that's ever existed or ever will exit either started, ended, or ran through the month. Perhaps that's a result of half of the world being in quarantine. Perhaps that's just the luck of the draw. Either way, I must have played close to 50 or 60 Itch.io games alone throughout the month, and there were a lot of really good ones. But with careful consideration and the help of my dog, I was able to whittle that list down to the 10 best and most interesting games of the month.
