I created this topic to post some of the indie gems that no one talks here without creating separate threads.
So first:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1571940/Ctrl_Alt_Ego/
It's the immersive sim where you play as a consciousness in a simulation where you can take over electronical devices. It has a very Arkane's Prey vibe. As the author writes:
| Quote: | Transmit yourself between bots and devices and exploit the innovative mechanics to solve problems your way.
Explore a deep, nonlinear, interconnected world, evocative of 70s/80s era low-budget British sci-fi television.
Shoot, sneak or get creative, be pacifist or executor.
Enjoy a darkly farcical story about the future of human consciousness.
If you enjoy immersive sims, there's every chance you'll enjoy this.
If you don't know what an immersive sim is, but you enjoy thinking for yourself and solving puzzles with no preordained solution, this game is for you.
If you're an experienced gamer looking for a fresh, engrossing experience, you just found it! |
It's great albeit a bit wonky. If you liked Deus Ex, Prey this is for you. It doesn't look great but hooks you up fast.

The gaming industry has changed, double A and indie games basically took over the market

True, indie games are superior.
It's the focus on gameplay that makes them great. And, at least the good ones, offer something fresh like you haven't played before. These days talent is much more important to make a good game then a pile of money.
Currently playing mewgenics but it gets a little stale (also playing the game tired after a beverage kinda screws up my runs a lot)
Also deciding if i'm either going for Esoteric ebb or Banquet for fools.

Human Fall Flat is excellent in 2-player.
Another favorite we have is Heave Ho.

'Peak' was nice with friends for a bit. But kind of got boring after 15 hours. But they are adding new maps, items and other stuff from time and may check it again in few months.
As for SP games, I like me some small fun games every now and then. Recently played 'Loop Hero', 'Overlooting' and 'Brotato' and loved them.
'Slay the Spire 2' just released and might check it out, but after it gets 1.0 version. Haven't played the 1st game for some reason.
