These days, Indies are really popping off IMO. Gems like Animal Well are coming out all the time. What are your favorites?

    • chants of senaar is decent entertainment for an afternoon

    • balatro, number go up

    • pizza tower, warioware clone but wilder

    • yomi hustle, TAS fighting game. Its a fun thought experiment that quickly devolved into which character had the unpatched unblockable loop

      I’m a pedantic nerd and just wanna correct you a lil. Pizza Tower is a clone of Wario Land, specifically Wario Land 4. Warioware is a different series based on very quick mini games.

      Yomi hustle is really good! Or it used to be, like you said. There aren’t a lot of really good turn based multiplayer games and I wish there were. It’s the only kind of multiplayer I can stomach.

      +1 for Chants of Senaar. For anyone reading who hasn’t heard of it, it’s an isometric puzzle game based on linguistics. You control a person trying to climb this megastructure where each level has a different culture and language and so you have to figure out the various writing systems and syntaxes to find your way
