Steam Next Fest launched June 15 and runs through June 21, opening a weeklong showcase of dozens of playable indie demos. Wild Wits and Curve Games will release a Sovereign Tower demo today, with the full PC launch set for August 6. Other new demos available now include A Game About Chopping Trees, where players chop trees, upgrade gear and ride a handcar solo or co-op, and TANUKI: Pon's Summer, which follows Pon as he restores a shrine ahead of the Tanuki Festival. The festival matters because these demos let players try upcoming indies, give actionable feedback to developers, and help smaller studios build wishlists and launch momentum.
