Ive been trying some indie developed games this past year, more than ever and I’m in awe what lone devs or small teams can accomplish.

So, what are some games that you think don’t have the recognition they deserve, need a bigger audience or you would like the community to try.

I myself for example have played Monster Sanctuary, which at this point I think is not that hidden anymore and played a rougelike game called Elona, haven’t played RimWorld or Dwarf Fortress but I might in the future.

Sorry if a similar post already exists haven’t checked.

  • Ring Runner: Flight of the Sages is a 2D top-down space shooter with RPG text-adventure elements outside of the combat scenarios. I found it a super fun game with an insane amount of content. Probably over a hundred hours worth. There’s a bunch of weapon and defense customization when it comes to combat, and there’s probably thousands of varieties of ship you can build for whatever duty you need it to do.

    If you like MOBAs or MMOs you’ll also probably enjoy this game, because when customizing a ship you can choose which key on your keyboard to bind the weapon to, and towards the end of the game you’ll end up with a whole row of keybindings on your keyboard.

    I believe if you play with a controller it has twin-stick controls, but on PC the controls are more like Elite: Dangerous or No Man’s Sky, just in a 2D environment.
