Game studios from Indonesia are not only good at developing Android and iOS games. They are also experts in presenting exciting games on PC and consoles.
Some of them have even been recognized by the world, and one of them was nominated for a prestigious game awards event called The Game Awards. The game in question is A Space for the Unbound
The progress of this game in this industry is indeed quite brilliant. Even though the visuals are not as good as AAA games by Rockstar, Electronic Arts, or Ubisoft, many gamers are fascinated by the storyline in it.
However, that’s just one of hundreds of cool PC games that Indonesian game studios have created. There are other titles that have similar qualities, with extraordinary popularity.
In this discussion, Cuaninaja has collected at least five PC games created by the nation’s children, which gamers must try. The following is the list, as monitored by Steam.
1. Potion Permit
Potion Permit is developed by MassHive Media. The launch was carried out by PQube, and can be played on Steam since September 22 2020.
Apart from being present on PC, this game also reaches gamers on mobile. The selling prices on these two platforms also vary.
If you want to play it on PC, players are required to spend IDR 165,999. Meanwhile, gamers only need to pay IDR 89 thousand to play on their cellphone.
Potion Permit is a role playing game (RPG). Gamers will take on the role of a chemist sent to help the residents of Moonbury.
You will be asked to diagnose a disease, collect ingredients, make a potion, and of course cure it.
2. Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly
Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly is a continuation series of the game entitled Coffee Talk. This game visited its fans on April 20, 2023.
The gameplay offered is still the same, namely being a barista and making all customer coffee orders. Not to mention the various customer interactions that make this coffee shop even more fun.
Interestingly, the stories that air in this shop are not only from the human race. Because various races also share their stories with different excitement.
Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly was developed and released by Toge Productions. They sell this game for IDR 99,999.
In 2023, Andrew Jeremy, Project Manager and Music Composer from Coffee Talk, once said that what was behind the creation of this second episode was the great interest of the fans. It is said that many of them warmly welcomed the release of the first episode.
“We decided to continue the work of our late friend, Fahmi and develop the story even more in Coffee Talk Episode 2,” said Andrew (20/4).
3. A Space for the Unbound
As stated earlier, A Space for the Unbound was nominated for <strong>The Game Awards 2023</strong>. At that time, this game was included in the Game for Impact category, competing with Chants of Sennaar, Goodbye Volcano High, TCHIA, Terra Nil, and Venba.
CEO of Mojiken Studio, Eka Pamudita, revealed that the development process took years. From his explanation, creating a story script is the biggest factor.
In general, from us it’s more about the script creation process. “The theme we raised is also quite heavy and sensitive (related to mental health), therefore we need research and in-depth research on the theme so that it is authentic and relevant,” said Eka.
Apart from providing an emotional storyline, Mojiken is also skilled at presenting its visuals. To make players nostalgic, they prefer a visual style inspired by Makoto Shinkai’s anime.
A Space for the Unbound is created by Mojiken. Then the launch was entrusted to Toge Productions.
If you are curious about the complete story and gameplay offered, gamers can buy it on Steam for IDR 99,900.
4. Coral Island
Coral Island is the next PC game made by an Indonesian developer that must be played. In terms of gameplay, it looks like gamers will be familiar. Especially if you have already been immersed in the fun of the game called Harvest Moon.
Yes, Coral Island is a farming simulation game. It is said that players are asked to leave life in the big city, and start farming on a tropical island.
Like the Harvest Moon game, gamers also have to build relationships with local residents. Don’t forget to complete all kinds of missions given.
