CrossCode is in my top 5 all time faves. The story is hype, atmosphere nailed perfectly, the soundtrack slaps, the combination of action and puzzles is everything I love about video games. One of the most unique games I ever experienced, you can see how passionate the devs are about every aspect of it. And it was made on HTML5! I really need to replay it in the future as I didn't play the DLC yet, since it came out, and I'm so excited about Project Terra.

I am currently starting Rain World, and despite the amount of frustrations I've heard about, it's surprisingly both chill and intense as HELL. The moment a predator or the alarm for the rain comes, my mind goes into panic mode. But for some reason it's super satisfying to get out or learn from the scenario. I know it's the 'Dark Souls' of 2D platformers, but dang it's super chill.

@austinackermann3731 2 ай бұрын

So, I found crosscode about a year ago. There was a pixel art game on sale that looked like it had potential, but not for me. I decided to check out what their most expensive game was, and it was crosscode. I downloaded the demo basically knowing nothing about the game. The demo hooked me, so i downloaded the full game. That feeling of unlocking new moves just as you start to grasp the ones before, then you unlock an element above that. It was wild. The game expanded way beyond what i thought it would, and going in with no expectations was just about the greatest experience in a game i had had. The game that I played prior to installing crosscode was the Witcher 3. Both grand games.

Before you sold me on Neon White despite not being up my alley (and it was my GotY). You are the one that has sold me on Crosscode. I have a few titles to go through first, but by the end of year I am giving this a hearty shot. I do want to show appreciation for your genuine support of Indies. Not just complain about AAA's and point to indies. But genuinely dig into the underground garden that it houses. I haven't heard of most of these games despite only playing indies and going super hard every Next Fest (granted I have blacklisted every roguelike on Steam). So anyone who can find gems I haven't even seen a screenshot of is someone who I respect.

My only gripe with the game involves some of the late-game Ricochet Puzzles. And if you know, you know. But other than that, it's a fantastic experience!

Few suggestions I have from being a games journalist for specifically indie games that are maybe not super obscure but still worth talking about imo - Penny's Big Breakaway because it's awesome and I don't need to explain further -Ultros is a game released this year that I've seen barely anyone talk about, despite the fact its a psychedelic, Castlevania inspired time loop metroidvania with a really awesome combo system - Rytmos is obscure as hell but still a good time. It's a puzzle game that procedurally generates its soundtrack as you solve puzzles, plus you get to have little jam sessions at the end of each puzzle, it's really unique and a good time - Ynglet is a super unique and free-flowing 2D... Platformer? You play as a little thing bouncing and swimming between a bunch of objects, all strewn about these microbe-ish environments, it's very very cool. - cassette beasts is peak

Picayune dreams was a pure ecstasy experience for me, when I first saw it on steam I was like huh, maybe I’ll pick up that game one day before going off and playing other stuff. But once I did finally play it, I only wish that I did it SOONER. The game is nothing but amazing between its awe inspiring and creepy aesthetics at the same time. It’s addicting soundtrack that I listen to all the time even when not playing. The extremely fun gameplay loop with some of the most unique weapons you can find in a bullet heaven game, the memories are intriguing to go through as you piece together a surprisingly complex and morbid story. Bosses are so so fun with the worm giving terraria vibes and ESPECIALLY PICAYUNE HERSELF. It’s a masterpiece that anyone should play and dare to 100% especially when the game has an achievement for beating a run without taking a SINGLE hit. Really looking forward to any future updates that can come to it

as someone who has been FIENDING rain world lately (started playing half a year ago and have over 100 hours already, don't see myself stopping any time soon) I love the rain world shout out despite it being relatively older and very obtuse. Also love CrossCode, that game doesn't get enough love for how great it is.

Picayune Dreams has been one of my favorite games for the past while and I was surprised to see someone finally talking about it...

I really love your indie games recommendations And although i dont play a lot of them (cuz school and stuff) am still considering playing them in the back of my mind Really love this series you should keep making more lists

So glad to see Picayune Dreams get thumbnail privileges, definitely one of the games I’m happiest to have discovered. Gotta check out Laika for sure too, heard many good things about it! Also wanna recommend Void Stranger, an insanely deep and complicated tile puzzle game hidden behind Gameboy styled graphics. There’s a moment during the ending that hits incredibly hard

I loved seeing the games, but honestly yakko’s ad reads are so good. They’re the only ones I don’t actually skip.

About the rain world segment, you are SUPPOSSED to go to the wall. it lets you get to five pebbles, an integral area. Then, you can go to shoreline to talk to moon, or just go ascend.

Love that you say OuterWildes is a "usual suspect" for an indie game. I think it still doesn't get enough credits, but I'm glad that it's more notable than I had thought.

To anyone who picks up rainworld from this video: if a creature is red it is friendly to you, which is rare
