Obviously a labour of love for Simon, Pixel Prospector’s an incredibly handy resource for time-strapped gamers like me who want to try out some of the more promising non-commercial games in development without having to spend half their weekends personally hunting them down 
New games are continually being added to Pixel Prospector, with screenshots and links to the official site (or forum thread for some) for each entry. Most entries even contain gameplay video trailers if the screenshots aren’t enough for you. The clean design should make finding interesting games at Pixel Prospector a breeze, but be advised that only games tagged playable (a complete list is available here) actually have working downloads.
A couple of my favourites from Pixel Prospector to start you off – zombie fragfest Zombpocalypse and retroish racer Polymaniacs (anyone remember Big Red Racing?) . Another duo which I’m anxiously awaiting playable versions of – The Proper Undead’s Pogo Pogo and Heavy Metal Thunder Warriors.
Check out Pixel Prospector (or just the list of games with playable versions). Subscribing to the Pixel Prospector RSS feed is the most convenient way to keep updated IMHO.
