"Indie games you haven't played" usually means super popular indie games that aren't the absolute most popular indie games. These are actually deep cuts and I hadn't heard of almost all of them, great job, and thanks for the recommendations.

I recommend CrossCode. I played it when it was still in early access and it’s a gem to play. Some puzzle, but lot of open world exploring with your character dashing around to find secrets.

Beat me to it. That's probably my favorite indie game ever, and it feels like nobody talks about it. Its puzzles are varied and rewarding, the combat is fast and fun, and the world is so much fun to explore! Also easily accessible, being on pretty much every current gen console (I think). Easily the best early access purchase I ever made (especially since it actually got OUT of early access). It's great to see it recommended here.

I'd personally recommend Epic Battle Fantasy (3, 4, and 5 are on Steam), it's a wonderful indie JRPG that makes for an amazing tribute to the JRPG genre, and its battle system is certainly fun to learn, it's up there with the better known commercial JRPGSs today imo. The dev, Matt Rozsak, could also be someone to interview given that he has much to say about Flash games himself. Also recommend Octogeddon, it's made by none other than the main directors of Insaniquarium and Plants Vs. Zombies, a two-button control game where you're an octopus wrecking everything.

I see that everyone is talking about there own recommendations so here is mine: Deadbolt: Side view game where you are the grimm reaper and your job is to stop a maffia of monsters. Akurra: Shokoban-like puzzle game highly inspired by the Zelda series. It’s still not finished but it has a ~3 hour long free demo. Kharon’s Crypt: Early acces game where you play as Kharon who just escaped their prison room at the bottom of a giant dungeo. You were locked in for so long that the people who couldn’t die without your help turned into monsters! Your job is to escape the dungeon and defeat the king who imprisoned you.

I wish I had seen this video when it first came out, because I have... god, I have just _so many_ recommendations of my own. Things like: - Creepy Castle, a ZX Spectrum-styled RPG with multiple playable stories and characters and a combat system based around WarioWare microgames - Fist's Elimination Tower, a fast-paced arcade platformer about clearing rooms of enemies and evading giant fists - BackSlash, the first game from the studio behind Olija and a two-player arena fighter based around combining different martial arts styles - Prodigal, a tribute to the GBC Zelda games with an expansive story and characters that can be interacted with or romanced - Voidigo, a top-down shooter in the vein of Gungeon or Nuclear Throne but with its own unique motion mechanics - Super Slime Arena, a very minimalist and replayable arena fighter that can support dozens of players and any type of controller you can connect to your computer - EatWell, an exceptionally jank but thoroughly unique Pac-Man roguelite with some of the wildest power-ups or secrets you could ever imagine - El Tango De La Muerte, a rhythm game dressed in the style of a Latin-American telenovela - Black Bird, a gothic opera shmup from the developers of the infamous wacky adventure game Chulip - The Void Rains Upon Her Heart, a bullet hell boss rush roguelite shmup with some excellent bosses and gameplay loops - Backspace Bouken, a quirky dungeon crawler crossed with a typing game - Towertale, a narrative-driven boss rush game with multiple playable characters that each have their own story route and multiplayer co-op options - Vision Soft Reset, a metroidvania heavy on the metroid, with a unique time travel mechanic built around reversing time, seeing into the future, and going back to old save points to make split timelines - Pato Box, a comic book-styled Punch-Out game combined with various different genres such as adventure and stealth

Party Games: - SpyParty | A competitive espionage game about subtle human behavior. You accomplish a set of tasks in a room, while trying to convince the sniper that you are just another AI. - Liero | An old freeware multiplayer, arena shoot-em-up title where you can turn reload time off, which has a lot more hilarious consequences then you might expect. Roguelike: - Heat Signature | A comedy of errors in space, the mechanics combine in a way that you will never stop finding new ways to mess up. - FTL: Faster Than Light | Okay so, definitely not the most underrated game out there, but goddamn does it deserve every ounce of recognition it does and doesn't get. Absolutely masterpiece Puzzle Games: - Stacking | Double Fine's finest, in my opinion. A beautifully charming Russian Nesting Doll puzzle adventure game. - Perspective | A short little mind-bending freeware first person, 2D platformer. RPG's (Story Games): - Save The Date! | A freeware visual novel that I fundamentally refuse to spoil, if anybody is still reading this far, play Save The Date! It's one of the smartest most creative gaming experiences I've ever had - Hypnospace: Outlaw | A weird, nostalgic, creative, 90's internet adventure game. Featuring radical music by Hot Dad, and interesting moral questions of intellectual property and censorship. Action/Adventure: - Broforce | BROFORCE! KICKING ASS FOR JUSTICE AND FOR LIBERTY! - Megaton Rainfall | The best superhero game, it perfectly captures the feeling of being Superman, while throwing in genuinely good mechanics, also it's story has a hint of existential horror, which definitely caught me off guard.

As an avid fan of indie games, I'd recommend a personal favorite of mine; Underhero. It's a RPG platformer with a combat style similar to paper Mario. You play as a minion of the big evil king returning the artifacts to the bosses after the hero is defeated. The story is a play on the classic "Hero saves princess" plot and has MANY sutprising twists.

My dream game would be something with a story and vibe i got from Undertale, Witcher 3, and Night in the woods. The satisfaction and fluidity of a good combat and movement system like in Hades, the Ori games, or Celeste. And a fancy/fantasy-like artstyle like in Hollow knight, oneshot, or Ori and the blind forest. But that's waaaay too specific and too much. I would make one myself but that's also way too much to take lol. I also have no idea how.

If you’re ok with being mercilessly killed a number of times that a supercomputer the size of a mountain couldn’t count to, play Rain World. It pretty much fits the bill, while replacing fantasy with dystopia. Lord is good, combat is hard to get into but so fun to get right, and a great art style that, while technically not pixel art, still kinda looks pixelly. There’s also AI like no other and procedural animation which, instead of using set, drawn animations, it instead uses code to make animations by itself, increasing the fluidity of the game. The movement system is fucking amazing, as well. Truly a world where it rains.

I love the Don't Escape series ! each game has a unique storyline and the game really makes you want to keep playing and playing until you get all the endings, i played the entire series when flash was still around (rip flash) my most favorite was the third don't escape, the further you go into the story, the more invested and on edge you would be. then when you get to the ending, uncover the truth behind why and how the entire crew is dead, youd get chills crawling on your back. the truth would be 'simple' but the more you think about it, the more you look back on the playthrough, there's so much things that click together. the deep sleep series was amazing as well ! i only played it with my brother when we were younger so i dont remember much (i was also really scared of horror haha) but it was so well made and an amazing experience, if you love horror then i think this is a good series, theres a few cheap jumpscares but i think it wouldnt bother you that much in the long run ^^ unfortunately i cant play the 4th dont escape game (which was shown in the video) however if i ever do get the chance, i definitely would ! and i do recommend anyone to try out the dont escape series as well the deep sleep series ! have a nice day everyone

Pocket Mirror - RPGMaker Horror, personally, I like it. Touhou Endless Dream - Roguelike Bullet Hell, I like it, but it's not fully translated, which is sad.

There was a game from a long time ago on the 3DS called Swords and Darkness. It was a a random e-Shop purchase that I thought I would regret but I ended up 100%ing it. It was a lot of fun for what it was. There are definitely better games out there but if it’s still available for purchase anywhere and you’re into Castlevania-type games I definitely recommend it. There weren’t exactly many indie masterpieces made all the way back in 2013 so it was a lot more impressive then than it would be now. It wasn’t anything special but I still think about it from time to time for some reason. It was just a fun thing to run through over a weekend.

Unfortunately, I have a dinky lil laptop that won't run most of these games. So for now, I'm wishlisting most things until I can afford a computer that can actually handle them. (And also impulse-buying a few of them because they look so cool...) Hopefully I'll be able to get a better computer soon!

I recommend Project Arrhythmia it's a lot like just shapes and beats so it's a bullet hell style game. There are tons of community created characters each have their own lore and abilities. Some people create storylines that have some awesome characters and cool lore. Some are comparable to actual shows!

As we apparently have similar taste in puzzle games - I suggest Unpacking. It's very short, and honestly unsure if it was worth the full $20 I spent on it, but it was so satisfying and fun.

One of the games on the list should be At Least There Is Čeda Čedović - 2d platformer inspired by Mario 3 and SMW. By the way, it actually does have start from flash animations (though they were uploaded on youtube instead of newgrounds)

A really good recommendation I have for a point and click game is Trader of Stories, a game with a heavy focus on telling a story that, at least for me, was incredibly captivating. The characters and plot are amazing, and I recommend checking it out.

it's interesting to hear about deep sleep in this video (if only very briefly.) someone close to me played that trilogy and it absolutely ruined my life when i was a kid it scared the living daylights out of me (ironic because it's. a horror game about sleep.) i'd lay awake every night in terror... the whole idea that you could end up in that horrible world just by falling asleep too hard... absolutely nightmarish.

a rogue lite I will recommend to my dying breath is streets of rogue. holy shit this game is fun. its not that long (about an hour) which makes it super repayable. it has about 30 characters which all function differently, some more than others. Ive heard it described as a rules lite game which is accurate. you get these objectives at the start of the floor and its up to you how you complete them. sometimes failing them is often the best decision. please play this game

I personally recommend a game called BIT.TRIP Presents… Runner2: Future Legend Of Rhythm Alien. It’s a 2D auto-runner as well as a rhythm game. It’s a shame that no one has played this along with the rest of the BIT.TRIP series. In fact, only a few other people I know actually knows what this game and what the entire series is.
