Which indies did you discover and would love more people to know about? I'll start: The Pale Beyond. Not sure if it's a hidden gem tbh, but it's such a good story rich game. I laughed, I cried and felt the characters struggles. If you like story rich games/ choices matter, check it out.

I've mentioned these before and I'll do it again:

  • Exanima - Read about the features. This one is more impressive than the screenshots make it look (at least for me).
  • Lunacid - I love the visual style and atmosphere of this. I also enjoyed Lost in Vivo by the same developer.
  • Praey for the Gods - This one is for anyone who's looking for more games like Shadow of the Collossus.
  • The Upturned - A cartoony horror-comedy game with a great sense of humor.
  • Withering Rooms - The story is interesting and the atmosphere is great.
  • Your Spider - This one is possibly my favorite indie horror game.

Just recently started Lunacid, and I'm having a blast. I'm a fan of dungeon synth and its subgenres, and I"ve been looking for a game that has those vibes for quite some time. This one seems to fit the bill quite a bit. And I also have wanted to check out King's Field, but was afraid that it might be too dated to be enjoyable; Lunacid seems like a fresh take on that dungeon crawler style of gameplay. The only thing the game lacks imo is a dedicated pause button
