50 Indie Games.

[@PurposelessRabbitholes]

I mispronounced Fight Corp and Toribash and probably also said some other slightly dumb shit so I am deeply sorry for that but also I hope you enjoy the video I have been editing for so many hours I am so tired

[@PurposelessRabbitholes]

buy some of the games by the way,, you heard what I said at the end there

[@PurposelessRabbitholes]

christ I made the video public for like 5 minutes without changing the title from the file name of "50indiegames finalfinalfinal" lmao

[@CybenX_yt]

filling up my wishlist as we speak

[@netriosilver]

@@PurposelessRabbitholes get some sleep buddy

[@curryj.424]

“I had a severe lapse in my judgment” lmao bro ur good

[@netriosilver]

Here before he changes the title from 50indiegames finalfinalfinal Love the naming convention btw

[@netriosilver]

I absolutely do the same thing editing for another channel

[@JRheu]

@@netriosilver what are you referring to? is it a strategy to garner views?

[@netriosilver]

@@JRheu There is literally nothing tying or connecting this account to the channel I edit for. Back off.

[@JRheu]

@@netriosilver Uhhh you okay? You said the video has a naming convention which you use in your own channel. I simply ask if that helps get views. You somehow got mad off of that? Absurd.

[@JRheu]

@@netriosilver if someone asks your favorite color, do you lash out angrily?

[@dronaroid]

Extremely happy and thankful to have HEARTRENDER included in this lineup! Let's see if I can make that later 2023 demo release window I'm hoping for.

[@epicmcdude]

Man this video is awesome and thank you so much for including my own game. Nothing's worse than an indie who's been working on their game for over a year, to then releasing it into a void. Thank you for the video!

[@PurposelessRabbitholes]

Eyyyy I actually contributed to the crowd fund for Corpus haha, I wanted to do the big tier where you get to pitch a side quest but I just couldn’t manage it. Played the demo a bunch, really excited for the finished version whenever it drops!

[@thehambergurman]

I'm a sucker for immersive sims, and I have a feeling I'll definitely be shilling Corpus Edax everywhere I am (which is not a lot but yeah)

[@NicolasREVA7X]

I see you are a man of culture Luis, your community is starting to grow and you deserve it!

[@epicmcdude]

@@PurposelessRabbitholes Thank you for playing and helping fund the game!!

[@epicmcdude]

@@NicolasREVA7X It's a really, really big relief knowing I'm not wasting years of my life. And this goes for a lot of other fellow developers I imagine.

[@pistol0grip0pump]

2:50 - V.A. Proxy definitely has strong inspiration and foundations in the Nier franchise, I'm here for it

[@l0rdfr3nchy7]

Samurai Jack

[@help533]

These all look legitimately more creative and fun than like 85% of the big budget games of the last few years

[@nabil5134]

Ikr, I'm mad at myself for not finding theses earlier

[@bignosh]

because they are lol

[@aquaabouttogetfunky]

Because they are.

[@ehrtdaz7186]

Nah, definitely not ALL of them. Motor Doom for example looks like shit and is a rip off of another game

[@pcih6176]

what an interesting and unique and introspective comment

[@ZedAmadeus]

Hell to the yes.This may sound strange, but I like that you included WIP non-playable stuff to keep an eye on. Wishlists are super important for indie devs and it's cool to have more videos like these putting a spotlight on them early so that can happen. Another reason I'm grateful for this is because I followed quite a few of these devs on Twitter but then I left when it went to shit and forgot their names lol. Actually so hyped for a bunch of these.

[@Monad_of_Eirye]

Really appreciate you including Full Fathom alongside all of these indie gems. You rock :)

[@PurposelessRabbitholes]

Np, it looks awesome!

[@orinlett6078]

Bro thank you I’ve been living for all types of cool games that people can make Edit: VA Proxy sounds alot like nier atomita

[@PurposelessRabbitholes]

Definitely heavily Nier inspired, yet another reason why it's exciting to me

[@JuiceboxCE]

This channel is a gem, man. Love your content and the passion each video brings! This is EXACTLY the sorta content I wish was more mainstream celebrated, which is why I heavily appreciate this video

[@-Sheva-]

The movement and atmosphere in some of these games makes me incredibly excited for the future of games.

[@quisslequassle404]

Dread Delusion is incredible! I'm really really glad to see someone cover it

[@dannywoodward9933]

Ive watched this video like 6 different times just adding all the ones on steam to my wishlist. This is definitely my favorite video of yours so far.

[@emrknight]

It's rare to see such an expansive and complete show of indie awesomeness as this, holy cow! Like, every game seem legit GENIUS ?!!? Well done, almost none I knew, all of them I need

[@thatunknownfella]

Game dev is like a roguelite, sometimes your entire project just stops working and creating a new one doesn’t work either, and sometimes it actually works, then later on it stops working and you develop depression and semi-permanent voluntary bed lingering, and I’m glad to see that these games are still being developed

[@saisameer8771]

eeeehhhhh.....that's just life.

[@thatunknownfella]

@@saisameer8771 well yeah but it also applies to game dev

[@Kazzikuzzi]

Found your channel through this video, and I'm impressed I've only heard of three of these! It makes me inspired to maybe make my own videos. Keep up the good work!

[@Sputnik34]

This is indeed 50 indies.

[@TheLegendaryLlama]

If you're into indie games I highly recommend Voidigo, it was mainly made by a group of three friends over the past 6 or so years, and it is incredible. It's a chaotic, energetic roguelike with a stunning art style. It's gotta be one of my top favourites of all time, unrivalled by ALL other roguelikes, I mean it, it is THE roguelike game. It's coming round to its 1.0 release, and while that's so exciting, it kind of brings with it a dread. I do have hopes, and I do know that the 1.0 update is a masterpiece (I have access to the tester branch, the devs basically hand it out to people in the discord, they're really good people), but it's so criminally, almost frustratingly underrated, sitting at only just over 1k reviews on steam, for the record, a lot of the indie games you've mentioned have dozens and dozens of thousands, and while it sticks a 99% positive (as of writing this), the numbers kind of shock me. It deserves a million times that, and it gets nearly no KZbin presence, 1.0 is dropping in two days, and it's a stretch, but if you're reading this, please try it out (you too, viewers), even make a video on it if you want, it's a once-in a lifetime game like no other, the only reason I'd call it my second favourite was because terraria was in my life and making my childhood since long before Voidigo. This probably comes across as a cry for help, it is, I'm pretty faithless in the effort=success model, I'm promoting the game because I'm just so damn in love with it I'm itching to see its success, it'd be so cool if you were a part of that success.

[@barefootwalk1798]

I'm an avid student of indie game releases, but this video added several entries to my wishlist. Thank you for that.

[@MagicalGirlContractor]

very rarely do i find reviews that are concise AND funny. you keep doing what ur doing mate u have a great personality for entertainment.

[@killingtimeonline]

Your taste in games is fuckin A+

[@ALLSOFTproduction]

Thank you for this. I'd love to see a video like this every year. So many hidden gems out there I had no idea existed.

[@galaxymark1]

This video is epic, thank you man for doing it. You mixed a good amount of sarcasm and editing combined without losing the point of explaining all the different games in a very short amount of time each, so you don't even get bored while watching and have one after another. It's for sure that people may try out at least one of the 50 games you showed as you grouped almost every kinda videogame genre. I wish there will be a part 2, or even a serie, with the same style of this video. Fast, entertaining, interesting and well made, i think those are they kyes i liked. Thank you man for the effort of doing all that

[@anderskt3613]

Best list i've yet to come by, thank you so much.

[@DrFrankenMax]

Just bought four of these indie games, and already owned like 3 of them. You, my man, have good taste.

[@theresistance6622]

I have to say I really loved this video. I have been in a funk for about the past week, but your wit and charm really brought some joy to my day. Keep it up!

[@kalel333]

I thought i wasnt gonna like a video about 50 indie games, but your voice over always gets me. 10 out 10

[@sighbatsu]

What a dope video, I love shoutouts to indie devs and their projects. I know some people's tastes are varied but I wanna recommend Life By You and Paralives two games in the same category of the Sims if you've been looking to get away from the clutches of EA and their money hungry ways. Life By You comes out in early access on steam (September 12th). Paralives is still in early development but they have a Patreon and plenty of footage showing off their progress! Anyway, I'm adding so many games to my wishlist right now. AAA industry will always be a mess with some gems sprinkled in but I'm grateful for ambitious indie devs - games are hard to make!

[@userdeyoutube9452]

This video is really well made, it is fast and easy to watch but not overwhelming, the editing and the sound quality are very nice too, tbh I feel like it should have more views. Great content :)

[@hoodie1055]

This video is adhd heaven

[@ogpandamonium]

It's cool that people are starting to make immersive sims again!

[@hotboxhearse]

literally what is this "genre" even supposed to be, you can just call anything an immersive sim if it isnt a straight up arcade game

[@heroe1486]

​​​​@@hotboxhearseSomething like Kingdom Come Deliverance with really realistic elements that influence the gameplay, being what you eat, what you wear, if you sleep well, if you're drunk, realistic day/night transition etc. The opposite of RDR2 where you have rpg elements but those barely influence anything since the game is too easy whatever you do

[@oueoueokok1148]

Definitely one of the best indie games recommandation video out there, you have to make a part 2 or something man

[@Slim7073]

The fact that you provided Steam link for each game in the description... I'm subscribed now!

[@NicolasREVA7X]

You choose fucking CORPUS EDAX as your FIRST GAME. I am a backer of that game on Indiegogo and I couldn't be happier. I love you!

[@muhammadsumama2836]

You did a great job being entertaining while listing 50 games I respect that

[@deekay6474]

the transitions between games are very Vsauce 3. Takes me back. Good vid

[@lucybresgal1519]

what a collection of great rec's!!! cant wait to play some of these, and im excited to have some to be released games to look forward to. also, im feeling pretty down right now and your commentary gave me quite a few laughs :)

[@jpkan3873]

i already seen this video, i saw it just when it came out and YT is still showing it on recomended . I cant believe its over 2 months and it still with so little views, it deserves better, keep this way bro and you are getting your deserved atention

[@nemesisurvivorleon]

BLAZING through this list faster than sonic. I APPRECIATE that. Straight to the point and some direct gameplay and funny commentary. This is how you do it, folks

[@icreatedthisaccounttocomme8485]

Excellent video! I love the format and the content. I appreciate an easy way of discovering indie games

[@mook_10]

i bought the upturned because of this video and it's hilarious. i really hope you do another video like this because it introduced me to so many games i never would have known about before

[@Evanz111]

Respect to you for keeping this video comprehensive but concise! I decided going on that I’d buy one game from this video, and I decided on Your Only Move is Hustle! Overwhelmingly positive reviews and it only costs £4 at full price! Thanks so much!

[@Tenacitas465]

Man you are such a hidden gem in youtube. Thanks for the recommendations, I have whislisted some of them

[@THEKHAYYYAM]

Great to see someone spreading the V.A Proxy love. Thank you man

[@dietryinundeleted423]

those gi joe vids were some of the first things i ever used youtube for in the first place. what a long road it's been.

[@HansAlRachid]

Of the unfinished ones, a couple have the distinct appearance of vaporware-to-be, but all 'em look interesting - thanks for the wishlist-recommendations! Hopefully I'm wrong and all of these will eventually see the light of day.

[@svenwalter4293]

I highly appreciate your channel bro, thanks for shedding light on these indie games as I wouldnt have known about them otherwise if not for you.

[@SamuraiUnicornPS1]

Thanks for including us in this list of cool games!

[@macthemeh]

Great. Thanks. As if my steam wishlist wasn't long enough.

[@cristiankinzel9529]

Great list, man. I'm all into indie games but there was a ton of them on this list I've never even heard of. Def getting many of these.

[@realjoshuacoyle]

LOVE the way you talk about stuff 😂hilarious comedic commentary

[@smokeback]

amazing was actually search to see which cool indies are in the making

[@markschroder1663]

Thx for this video. I always feel like i should give more indie games a try,but there is just so much choice,so lists like this are really helpful in finding some good indie titles

[@Skylord__Brown]

These types of videos are always the best and damn this one is well done! Thank you for putting this together Purposeless Rabbitholes

[@madness1744]

i bought HK massacre like an hour before this video dropped and i didn't expect to see it on this list nor did i know that the dev is the one behind the untitled realistic FPS

[@bluargie7906]

Thank you for these recommendations. So many games I would've not found. I followed many games now on steam and downloaded some! Thank you very much!

[@captainblastems3367]

Cool video I enjoy the more positive tone while talking about these games rather than talking about how shitty other games have been. Also it’s on the tip of my tongue but what is the song around 5:48, I want to say it’s devil may cry 5 but I can’t find it for the life of me.

[@MrCnovalink]

added as many of these to my wishlist as possible, and the ones i couldn't i am now following. thank you, magic rabbit.

[@toadhermit7238]

50 games in 20min, this is perfect. Thank you

[@bucketsGG]

Current Title: 50 Indie Games. Original Title: 50IndieGames FinalFinalFinal ... :) Thanks for the 50 Indie Game recommends. LOL, looks like I'm gonna be adding a more to my already -_- endless backlog of games or literal decades worth of gaming O_O. hahaha.

[@TylerTheLoser_]

50IndieGames FinalFinalFinal

[@mimisaur5000]

my wishlist is stacked now. thanks man

[@ActuallyBooks1]

HROT NEEDS to use that theme song you made it is absolutely amazing

[@AbyssalCleric]

Not gonna lie, the moment you showed me Your Only Move is Hustle I went and bought it on steam.

[@Sh1rtb1rd]

Just want to say, and I can't stress this enough, I love your content man. Been watching for a while and you never disappoint. Your specific style, format, editing, manner of speech. A consistent draw for me. Was that a fuckin Balloon Shop cilp? The fuck man it's like our brains are melded. Keep up the good work.

[@FlatThumb]

What a great list! "Please sir, can we have 50 more?"

[@wabbaboy]

Thanks for the Sorceress shoutout my dude 😎👍

[@PurposelessRabbitholes]

You're doin the lords work bringing elements of dark messiah to today's gaming landscape

[@Half_awake_Jake]

Love that you’ve been uploading more often recently. Pretty sure I’ve watch every video on your channel at least twice. I need that shitt lol Also the Deadly Premonition ones my favorite.

[@peromechus9806]

Mr Holes, after watching this video, I think you’d really like Katana Zero. It’s the best indie game I’ve ever played.

[@gorboobus9292]

So, like, being a fan of indie games, it’s hard to come across games I’ve heard NOTHING about. Sure, I’ve heard of a handful of the ones in this video, but it is nuts how some of these KZbinrs just find these. P.S. Purposeless Rabitholes, my good sir, you aren’t just some random KZbinr and you’re cool

[@Allen-ie4sy]

You've done a service to Indie devs. Gonna shout out a stylish gem that wasn't mentioned. 'El Paso, Elsewhere' god it looks so sick

[@YourAverageNiche]

Hollowbody looks gorgeous and nostalgic. Just like Signalis was a hidden gem and a love letter to classic Resident Evil, Hollowbody seems to deliver a Silent Hill tribute. I can't wait for it.

[@dh1429]

i love how the video shows games that are less popular instead of indie legends

[@thomaspaine306]

More of this. This is good.

[@alixnicolai-dashwood1266]

I came for V.A Proxy and I found gold

[@kajnake5905]

Thank you for showing off some amazing gems Ive missed

[@kerem1106]

enjoyed the video, didn't know if i should subscribe or not. saw the sopranos clip at the end and changed my mind. thanks.

[@aidanfleming7229]

Nice I have also been following most of these games. Especially, we kill monsters. Have been in their discord for about a year.

[@Jm-ki4su]

Pizza tower is a masterclass in platforming

[@asdollas44]

im very excited for V.A. Proxy after seeing this

[@pk251]

Glad to hear praise for Turbo Overkill

[@dimplebup]

your content seems neat! lotsa amazing indie games showcased and i love your jokes. keep it up brother 👍

[@dimplebup]

also love that everything is linked in the description with timestamps! awesome job on this

[@bignosh]

indie games nowadays are so creative, I love how people have decided to begin just making cool shit that sounds fun instead of trying to invent some new groundbreaking game that will gain a bunch of popularity , sometimes games that are just fun to play and are cool are the best kind of games

[@Thonato420]

any indie game list is automatically valid when there's pizza tower in it

[@aidanbell6038]

Most indie games videos are just "at number 1... Hollow Knight!" but this was great. Will check some of these out, thanks

[@dexlovesgames_dlg]

I’ve never seen a video that had such a high ratio of games I’ve never heard of before. Kudos. I’m really at the pulse of these things too. We kill Monsters or whatever it was called stuck out the most

[@xade4861]

I played this really good indie game called "Press Any Button", and HIGHLY recommended it to anyone looking for a retro-like puzzle game with an amazingly sad narrative, it only takes a hour or so.

[@Pugol]

extra indie games i don't think you,ve mentioned before: deep rock galactic a dwarf mining game where you commit war crimes against bugs for their resources ,dusk a doom shooter published by new blood and made by the guy who made iron lung, and shady knight where it's essentially medieval ultrakill

[@nero2522]

...i'm sorry i wasn't paying much attention, but i was too busy vibin' to sounds for the supermarket 1975 in the background

[@massiveradde]

very good, a few there i didnt know yet and will definetly start following. you didnt include team reptiles' Bomb Rush Cyberfunk wish makes me sadge but all around great picks

[@LORDSofCHAOS333]

LOVE THEME ALL BRO will check out the horror and FPS once first thaw.

[@colyloop8576]

man other videos of indie games released are stupid with games of only 2nd dimensional but you are a g,you deserve a subcribe

[@GuyGorby]

Shadows of Doubt has the potential to be one of my favorite games of all time. It's the type of game I dreamed of

[@user-hq8wm8giyujcg]

one thing i like about this video that it truly recommends modern indie games which uses low poly style which i like because lof of time modern devs use this specific style for low poly which i dont like at all which uses big pieces of poly, one type of colours palate, and how they draw objects and world with low poly. Some examples like Morphite, Clustertruck, Virginia

[@SPACECOWBOY705]

Indie games are in a golden age right now..... I'm playing Rain World at the moment..Very immersive

[@user-hq8wm8giyujcg]

low poly and pixel games test creators to push the boundaries of creativity and craft in this style, the best thing about it is it has low budget for talented indie devs, and it just take very very low processing power for budget gamers, i can play a great full fledge creative original 2d or 3d game made in low poly or pixel with my weak pc and probably in my mobile device, this trends needs to be keep popularizing more and more

[@thisisntthewholesomefuture649]

Cool. I found at least 2-4 games I'm going to enjoy.

[@MrLautax]

Love this video, thanks for The recomendations!!!

[@controlschemekeaton]

Great video! I didn't know most of these!

[@luka9707]

This video is pure evidence that the indie games are the futue
