I quote reposted this but I'll add another!

Albatroz, a hiking survival game with interesting mechanics, a sweet story, and great environments

What's an indie game that you don't really see people speak about but really love?

I have a bunch, but I'll bring up Hauntii for its cute and haunting story and great art style

"She said to me after that - Samantha, 21 years old - all my life I've prepared for this moment. All my life, my mom, 53 years old, who was just going to get meat for a stew, has told me one day this could come."

Sorry I've been M.I.A here and in gamedev circles. I've been dealing with some major life changes like moving back in with my parents. I'm still looking for work in Narrative Design and similar fields but also have transferable skills in QA and Editing/Publishing. I'd appreciate a repost ❤️

I really liked the meditative nature, of a different sort, that Europa provided. It was much less "feel the vibes and interpret the story" and more "meditative on human nature" and I think it didn't lose out for being so

I've been thinking a lot about writing this opinion piece. Yes, Journey was a transformative experience that fundamentally changed how many of us saw the medium of videogames. But that doesn't mean we should compare all meditative indies to it.

Indies Are More Than Journey - Pixelbytegaming

For a certain subset of players, no meditative indie videogames existed until 2012 with the release of Journey. And in a way, no other have. The impact this unassuming game had cannot be underestimate...
