5 mobile games make Develop's Indie Showcase line-up

Organisers behind this year's Develop Conference in Brighton have lifted the lid on the event's third annual Indie Showcase, with five mobile games making the final line up.

Shortlisted by a panel of experts, the ten titles will be available for attendees' perusal between 10-11 July, with the indie scene's shift towards mobile platforms playing out amongst the nominees.

Amongst the five mobile games in the line up is Mango Down's Catch-22 – the single touch iOS release having already won awards in the developer's home country the Netherlands.

Also up is Drop That Candy by Greenfly Studios, where the aim of play (as its name suggests) is to release sweets from vending machines in as few moves as possible.

Momonga Pinball Adventures

Paladin Studios offer this tantalising line on their site for Momonga Pinball Adventures, "Can a little flying squirrel take on the forces of evil?" With 9 unique levels, and high score tables, it promises a novel twist on the pinball formula.

With a distinctive Japanese paper craft aesthetic, fellow showcase finalist Tegami from Nyamyam is an atmospheric adventure game about a lone warrior.

To progress, players have to manipulate the paper world to solve puzzles and move on through the story.

Epic Eric

All of the above playable on the conference show floor between 10-11 July, with voting open for the People's Choice award across these two days.

Last years saw three mobile games make it into Showcase's top ten, though unfortunately none of them claimed an award.
