The Xbox Live Indie Games Summer Uprising schedule has dawned upon us in full, scorching glory, so turn up your A/C units, grab your sunglasses and take a look at the two-week lineup below:

Monday, August 22: Raventhrone
Tuesday, August 23: Battle High: San Bruno
Wednesday, August 24: Cute Things Dying Violently
Thursday, August 25: T.E.C. 3001
Friday, August 26: Doom and Destiny

Monday, August 29: Take Arms
Tuesday, August 30: SpeedRunner HD
Wednesday, August 31: Train Frontier Express
Thursday, September 1: Fan Vote #1
Friday, September 2: Fan Vote #2

The Fan Vote games will be selected through the IGSU Facebook poll running August 1-15, with the winners announced August 16 at 9 p.m. EST on the #IGSU Twitter chat, where fans will be able to speak directly with developers and behind-the-scenes personnel. This official schedule differs from the expected "two games per week, for four weeks" timetable we expected, but it does give us two extra indie gems this summer. We're not complaining.
