From Thursday, September 19, gamers around the world will have the opportunity to browse, buy, or wishlist games made in Serbia. Some of over 60 games will be heavily discounted and others will soon be published.

The Serbian Games Association (SGA) has curated and launched Serbian Games Week, a week of promotion and celebration of the success of the Serbian gaming ecosystem on Steam.

There are more than 60 games on the list. It includes a wide variety of games: from action, strategy and adventure, AA and indie projects to games inspired by Slavic mythology. The search for the perfect game is made easier through four categories and filters by genre.

Five games were singled out in the Epic Experiences category. Scorn, a gorgeous nightmare from Ebb Software’s kitchen for fans of Girer aesthetics, slimy, organic enemies and bone weapons (who remembers the movie eXistenZ?). Going Medieval by the indie team Foxy Voxel is a cozy city builder simulator with, as the word itself suggests, a medieval theme. UnderRail is an isometric RPG from indie studio Stygian Software, notorious for its difficulty because it was made as an homage to the good old games that forced us to struggle. Scars Above is an AA sci-fi adventure from Mad Head Games, focused on puzzle-solving and alien killing tactics. Fifth in this section is Tavern Master, another simulation set in the Middle Ages. This time you build your perfect inn, and behind the game is a dedicated indie solo developer.

Serbian Games Week will last from September 19th to 26th.

Games made in Serbia were played by over 100 million players globally last year. The goal of this project is to bring local games to an even greater number of players and to highlight the best projects for consoles and PCs.

UnderRail is a noteworthy title IMO. Impressive support over almost a decade. Cool CRPG ideas. I need to grab the most recent DLC.

I'm sad Switchcars and some other notable games made in Serbia aren't in the event (yet, might join I dunno) but the issue is probably with foreign publishers who hold the reigns over events and discounts and such (my assumption only).

Seems like an accurate guess.

Well I'm not a member of SGA and am assuming based on this list, and a number of HOPA titles on it, I assume Artifex Mundi and/or Ubisoft either weren't reached out to or... I myself saw some of those listed games on Poland Games Week because publisher for them was based in Poland, regardless of the developer... so these things happen and it's how it is.

But it's still a historic moment for our small country and even smaller gamedev community.

Really nice to see that kind of focus on specific cultures, I wish that was advertised on the main page instead of whatever the AAA trend of the month is :/

I didn't know Underrail was made in Serbia, I thought the dev was like Hungarian.

He's from Serbia, here's a 2012 interview from a defunct Serbian gaming blog (you can use google translate if you're interested) and it has a photo of the dev.

Proud to see our developers getting recognition out there. Seeing Croatian games week last time on Steam really made me want to see more of what each country has to offer, and I'm glad we're getting there.

There was also Spanish, Argentinian and Polish games week recently, and I think there's a Mexican probably about now...

It feels like most of the devs are missing an opportunity to have sales while the event is running.

afaik, they organized it in such secrecy, by the time some devs were invited, they were already on discount cooldwon... there's some interesting things though but yeah, could be better if everything was on sale at the same time.
