Thirteen years ago, Day of the Devs came together to celebrate the beauty of indie video games. Since then, we have had the incredible opportunity to shine a light on hundreds of unique and creative games through our in-person events and digital showcases, all for free at no cost to developers or attendees/viewers. This year, we made the transition to being a fully independent 501c3 non-profit, allowing us to continue our passion for supporting game developers and the magical stories they’re telling.
Today, we hosted our Day of the Devs: The Game Awards Edition showcase, and we’re excited to share some of the wonderful titles from the showcase that are coming to PlayStation.
Bionic Bay
Developed by Mureena & Psychoflow, Bionic Bay features stunning high-detail pixel art, tight and precise platforming, and chaotic physics-based gameplay, tasking players to escape an ancient biomechanical world filled with imaginative technology and deadly traps.
Bionic Bay features an innovative swap mechanic and realistic physics system that, when combined, offer a new way for players to interact with their environment, from shifting gravity to interchanging positions with objects or adversaries to move, defend, or attack as they make their way through the map.
Speaking of environments, Bionic Bay features an ancient, biomechanical world teeming with imaginative devices, mysterious technology, and peculiar inhabitants, all while immersing players into the different biomes with gritty, high-density pixel art style and suspenseful sound design.
Bionic Bay announced today during the showcase that it will be released on PlayStation March 13, 2025.
