Krimelo’s Siamese Enemies

Valerie
Need a game that you can play with your best bud? Siamese Enemies should be right up your alley. It's a twisted but pretty cool game from leading Swiss indie developer, Krimelo. In the game, you play one half of a Siamese twin. Your mom just wants one baby so you have to fight over who gets the most organs before you actually reach the hospital to get separated. Sounds a bit sick? Well, yeah, it sort of is, but it's sure great fun to play. Give it a try and you'll know what I mean.

Lonely Planet Boy 1969: No Dream Is Good Dream

Valerie
This Chinese rocker creates awesome music inspired by rock greats Neil Young, Syd Barrett, Tom Waits and Nick Cave, to name a few. Lonely Planet Boy 1969 creates melodic tracks that transcend time and space. No Dream Is Good Dream runs like a 1970s rock album, filled with moody atmosphere, shady, almost whispery, vocals and an awesome indie progressive feel. If there's anything this guy has learned from his influences, it's collating the good and ditching the bad. Each of the 9 tracks exhibit their own personalities; the good, the bad, the quirky and the plain eccentric. Clearly, if you love most of those artists mentioned above, chances are this compilation will become a surprising favorite.
