Welcome to Find Next Play: Your Free Indie Game Directory
Discover how Find Next Play helps indie developers showcase their games for free and reach new players through a unique leaderboard system.

Your games deserve to be discovered
Welcome to Find Next Play, a free directory built specifically for indie game developers who want their creations to be discovered.
Whether you're working on a demo, a game jam project, or a fully launched title on Steam, Itch.io, or any other platform, Find Next Play gives you a space to showcase your work and connect with players actively looking for new games to play.
What is Find Next Play?
Find Next Play is an indie game directory where developers can list their games completely free. No fees, no subscriptions, no catch.
My goal is simple: help indie developers get the visibility they deserve.
Every great game deserves to be played. I'm here to help players find yours.
You can submit:
- Released games on any platform (Steam, Itch.io, Epic, consoles, mobile, web)
- Demos and early access versions
- Game jam projects
- Work-in-progress prototypes
- Games in development with no playable build yet
You don't need a playable version to list your game. Marketing should start from day one of any project, and Find Next Play is a great place to begin building awareness early.
How Does It Work?
Find Next Play uses a unique leaderboard system that gives every game a fair chance at visibility.
Step 1: Submit Your Game
Create an account and submit your game with details like title, description, screenshots, and a link to where players can find it.
Step 2: Publish to the Leaderboard
When you're ready, publish your game to enter the current leaderboard period. Players can browse, discover, and upvote games they find interesting.
Step 3: Compete for the Top 3
Games are ranked by community votes during each leaderboard period. The more engagement your game gets, the higher it climbs.
Step 4: Win Featured Placement
Here's where it gets exciting: the Top 3 games from each leaderboard are featured prominently on the homepage during the next period.
This means maximum exposure to every visitor landing on Find Next Play.
Republish Anytime
Didn't make the top 3? No problem. You can republish your game as many times as you want. Updated your demo? Republish. Added new features? Republish. Every leaderboard period is a new opportunity.
Why List Your Game Here?
It's 100% Free
No payment required. Ever. I believe indie developers already invest enough time, energy, and money into their games. Promotion shouldn't add to that burden.
SEO Benefits
Every game listed on Find Next Play gets its own dedicated page with proper SEO optimization.
What does that mean for you?
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is what helps your game appear in Google search results. When someone searches for games like yours, having a well-optimized page increases your chances of being found.
Each game page on Find Next Play includes:
- Structured data that search engines understand
- Proper meta tags for social sharing
- A permanent, indexable URL
- Backlinks to your game's main page
This complements your existing presence on Steam, Itch.io, or your own website, giving you one more door for players to discover you.
Community Discovery
Players come to Find Next Play specifically to discover new indie games. These aren't random visitors, they're actively looking for their next favorite game. That's a highly engaged audience ready to try something new.
Fair Visibility System
Unlike platforms where older games get buried forever, the leaderboard system resets regularly. This gives new submissions and republished games equal opportunity to shine.
Who Built This?
I'm Tenta Dev, and I built Find Next Play because I saw a gap in the indie game space.
There are amazing platforms for selling games, but discovery remains one of the biggest challenges for indie developers. I wanted to create a place focused purely on helping games get found.
Find Next Play is a passion project, and I'm constantly working to improve it based on community feedback.
