Some farms, skateboarding, and some weird science

Microsoft hosted another Twitch Gaming and ID@Xbox showcase today, spotlighting some of Xbox’s upcoming indies. Across several hours, it featured several notable indies, ranging from the unlaunched to those already out and coming to Game Pass.

Among the upcoming games, there were some neat-looking indies, like the cyberpunk action-platformerAeon Driveand the previously showcasedOlliOlli World. While I got a chance to look at the skateboarding ofOlliOlli Worlda few months ago, today we got a look at customization in the game. Turns out, there’s a lot of different ways to deck your skater out in sick gear.
