#VideoGameBacklog "What Remains of Edith Finch" (PC, 2017) is a walking simulator by genre but an extremely artistic story in reality. The game is short and dark, as if Edward Gorey created a 3D visual novel, and is worth at least one playthrough. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Void Bastards" (PC, 2019) offers an innovative blend of FPS, construction, & rogue-lite. Its stylish visuals, distinctive enemies, imaginative weapons, & diverse locations come together in a delightfully bleak world that kept me going for one more station. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "The Witness" (PC, 2016) is an artistic 1st-person environmental puzzle game. The puzzles are interesting but get repetitive. However, the brilliant colors & models of the world provide incentive for progression. There's not much going on, but that's the beauty of it. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "ΔV: Rings of Saturn" is a space mining sim by Kodera where you collect ore from within the ring field. It has good physics & autopilot mechanics (once you get used to them) yet it's still a little tricky to get those buggers in. #indiegaming

#VideoGameBacklog "Wonder Boy" (PC, 2017) is a beautiful remake of an old Sega platform adventure…but level design, attacking, and collisions are still frustrating. Worth playing for the art & music though, plus, retro toggles for each! #indiegames #retrogames
