E3 has been gone for a while, and events like Summer Game Fest have stepped in to fill the gap. When it comes to indie games, there are few better in-person events than The Media Indie Exchange (The MIX) showcases. The in-person showcase took place on the rooftop of the Grammy Museum in LA Live. While there, LV1 Gaming had the opportunity to play many upcoming titles, and one that stood out was Don’t Let It Starve. Solo developed by Eduardo Scarpato and published by Black Lantern Collective. Don’t Let It Starve has one simple goal: keep the creature fed or let it feed on you.
