While a number of huge showcase events are going on today, let's look back at the tiny gems we have discovered in May to celebrate their sparkling charms and beauties. We had a speedrunning worm platformer, a gravity-switching frog puzzle, a playable essay about ephemeral digital worlds, and a flat game about pissing.
Have a look through our entire selection below. And if you want to find more convenient collections of games such as this, check out our round-up tag!
