Indieworld

From its Golf Story sequel opening to the juicy Axiom Verge 2 reveal, the December Nintendo Indie World showcase gave us plenty of things to be excited about.

When you've got announcements flying at you from all directions in such a short amount of time, though, it can be pretty difficult to actually take in what each game has to offer. So, we thought it'd be best to give you a quick round-up of all the games on show including trailers, quick descriptions straight from Nintendo, and even handy links to our own coverage of each title should you want to take a deeper dive. Aren't we nice?

Here we go, then! Here are all of the games shown in order of appearance, and the full video if you need to catch up:
