Well i am Indie Fan for sure, i only play indies ^^

I can list some good ones and explain them for others:

A Nation of Wind -I loved that one, you are sky ship and build civilization on sky islands while defending them from monsters, EPIC!

Naev - Best open world space rpg i played, but the fight system is a bit hard.

Hacknet - Well obvoisly you are hacker and hack, it is like simplistic version of uplink, but fun in pvp.

Savage 2 - Good RTS Game where your soldiers are players.

Ace of Spades - Funny blocky FPS where everything could be destroyed, like minecraft with guns.

Creeper World 1/2 - One of best games i played, hard to explain, you defend yourself from the creeper, small viruses which toghether look like fluid, and they mean to kill  you. In 1 epic is that you build civilization on islands  higher than the sea of creeper (View from up) And in 2 its more strategic base building (platformy View)

Driftmoon - Still in development, funny rpg, when you start, you need more.

Dungeon's Of Dredmor - AWESOMELY Done Tile based Rpg/Dungeon Rapist, Loads of humor inside. You can be mage of EMOmancy!

Intrusion 2 - This is some shit, Every platformer can hide now, This game is soo perfectly done... Best platformer ever played. it have physics and 3d, Very epic missions, and awesome music to cover it.

LIMBO - I do not know if it's still indie or not, good platformer.

Quintessence - The Blighted Venom - This one is Good RPG novel if you love that type of games, you should try it.

Towns - Awesome town builder game. Nothing to add.


Gnomoria - EVEN more awesome! you can build anything you desire here. Game is so much in shit that even when you make door or wall from other wood or stone, it have other color responding to it.

Rogue survivor - Zombie survival symulator, rogue like, 3D version is in development, propably will be good.

Project Zomboid - Game which broke my heart, for first awesome, then updates getting out too slow and making lagg my pc, and every new update it just got more boring, Fear not, better inventory management system in development should fix it.

Frozen Synapse - You can call it new type of turn based squad shooter, good one also.

Faster than Light - Space ship simulator, sadly get's boring too fast.

Mark of the ninja - Best stealth platformer game on the market.

I hope you enjoy it like i was, also, they have another awesome novel (not rpg thought) called "To the moon" But it's not free, which doesn't makes the fact that i enjoyed it too.

Here. 2 of my favourite free-indie games:

TAGAP: The Apocalyptic Game About Penguins
Sidescrolling shooter series. With genetically enhanced penguin killing zombie penguins and cyber penguins.

Cave Story
Very good platformer. A bit older but it's a Classic among the freegames.

Indies > AAA releases

I'm sorry, but indies must be nerfed if big companies want to exist anymore. Am I against indies? Hell no! I'm kind of an indie game developer myself, I have about 3 working tech demos* of games, but since my texturing work or pixel art is just far from good I just end up with tech demos, because the graphical side of what I create tends to look terrible... Like, really terrible. It's really a shame I can't put these things to life, because sometimes the ideas are indeed good and the whole things works great too!


*Tech demo as not as a great achievement in game engine or graphics, but a tech demo which +/- has all the gameplay elements working, just needs to add story, proper levels and all other good stuff that makes games good.

I still can be reached over e-mail if you somehow need anything from me. Don't see a reason why you would, but if you do, e-mail remains the safest bet, as I do not visit this forum reliably anymore.

Did you get the good ending? Many people that played it don't know it actually has 2 endings... I didn't know about the second one until i googled the boss that was in credits but which I didn't see ingame.
