World of Goo is great. Recommend Human Resource Machine if you can into programming too.

Cave Story.
Actually, "The Underside", which was a Cave Story knockoff that will never be finished. It hurts.

Dwarf Fortress. I've never played anything like it ( besides Aurora 4x)

Was Human Resource Machine any good? Or was it a steamy pile of pretentious preachy shit like Little Inferno?

>>337826102
This game was the shit.
Goo balls, awesome music and the Sign Painter.

I haven't played it yet, but I was told it's essentially actually programming presented as puzzles.

Guacameme

>>337835345
no, it was kick started, thus it had a safe financial backing. just like shovel knight. Once you ask and get money that is an "investor" or technically a publisher so no, it's not indie. especially with its budget.


aka anything with a budget over 500,000 is indie or anything kickstarted isn't indie.

Minecraft actually
Played it for the first time during the first beta update
I loved the shit out of it
Learning all those things
Being scared of mobs
Building your first dirt shack
All that stuff was real nice, but those days of minecraft being an indie game are long gone

More like Super Fuccboi, amirite?
