Ooh yeah number 3, I've finally made it to the big leagues!
My favorite game of the year
Def I started playing your game because Olexa and already sinked 100 hours in it. Keep up that marvelous thing! I am so excited to know the story about the hearts!
I think Mosa Lina is one of my top games of the year that I had personally played.
Thanks for having us on the list too
Can we get a PlayStation release
Thank you for making this list. I love watching your videos, and learning about small little games you find which are amazing. Cant wait to see the many games to come out this year.
Thank you Olexa, your videos are the main source of me finding all the new games i love to try, without you id probably still be bored literally all the time. Please keep it up with the fun content both with unique games, and being entertaining in general!
I'm glad tvruhh made it so high up. I picked it up after discovering in through this channel and I'm absolutely obsessed. It's an actual triumph especially for ONE DEV like HOW
Cool list! I have many of these already, picked up Mosa Lina, wishlisted a couple others. Tiny Rogues was my number one for 2023 until I picked up Cube Chaos!
Wohooooo cool list!!! :D I am stoked you put dotAGE as the first! Thank you! I'm evaluating a quick mode for the future, we'll see!
I really hope that the makeshift plushies will get full funding. I ordered mine!
Gotta agree with DotAGE as #1. What an amazing complex innovative little game it is.
Thank you so much for making this list, I have only found your channel as of a couple of months ago but I have thoroughly enjoyed every video you post and I am currently binging your backpack hero series. I am also curious why Terra Cards is not on this list, what negatives do you have about the game that kind of threw you off?
Terra Cards has no reason to be on a top 10 games list of 2023 lol. It’s not that it’s a bad game but every single one of these absolutely blows it out of the water. It’s a buggy mess that half the time doesn’t work and has about 3 hours of content
Great list, I'll keep an eye on each game
Love that the series I started watching you for was brutal orchestra great game
I am genuinely surprised that Tiny Rogues did not make the list. It's one of my favorites. But I do agree with your top 10.
The 2.0 release came out like, December 28th haha. Not enough time to make the goty list
@@OlexaYT Oh yes ofcourse, hadn't tought about that
@@OlexaYT Oh yes ofcourse, hadn't tought about that
@@OlexaYTyou mean 0.2.0 :P
We gotta get to 1.0 first, who knows what the game will look like lol
the top 5 all are legit 10/10 games. what a year for rogue likes-personally id throw against the storm in there as well!
Haven’t played it yet but on my list for 2024!
I got dotage and played like 100h in a week... very addicting
Amazing channel, for once the algo delivered 🎉
The void rain upon her heart seems really great. I will wait patiently for final release
An excellent list! I've played most of these already (or I already have them in my Wishlist), but I got a couple unexpected gems out of it, like ThroneFall. Good video!
Dot age is indeed crazy. So much stuff to do!
I've picked up so many games this year from stuff you've played. Love it all, looking forward to it all.
Didn't expect a Viticulture reference on this channel! It would be cool if you played some table top sim as your podcast/hangout instead of fortnite every once and a while. Loved the top 10 list!
We’ve highly thought about it actually but the view ratio would be poo poo, even more than Fortnite honestly lol
Very happy with this list. All of these were amazing games
That is so unique to attack enemies in tower defence that we see it about 10 years ago in Orcs must die!. And in three (or even four) sequels. And in... Dungeon defenders or Dungeon mages. Something like that.
I really like this list! My personal favorite game of 2023 was Super Mario Bros. Wonder, but if I had to pick an indie game I would definitely pick Pizza Tower! I highly recommend that game! It's so addicting to run through the levels at blazing speeds and listening to that jamming soundtrack that has been stuck in my head for months now lol
Been wanting to check out pizza tower. Couldn’t bring myself to buy Wonder at this time but I love me a new Mario game so I might this year
@@OlexaYT Both are peak platforming tbh 🔥🔥🔥
Please make more of these enjoyed a ton!
I suggest you Against the Storm, it sounds pretty somilar do DotAge
Yup on my list
not the biggest dotage fan, just not the game for me, but ive seen some of the videos and i gotta say even i wouldve put it pretty high on my own list if i was rating off of quality, these games were sooo good
2024 better take notes
Is Tiny Rogues not in the list because its just not in your top 10 or because you played it before 2023? I discovered your channel this year and i gotta say i love it. Thank you for all the happy moments ❤
He played it back in 2022, so that is why. It would likely be one of the top 3 if he just played it for the first time this year
Yup basically that ^. The other reason is this video and list was in the works before the tiny rogues update even released lol
@@OlexaYT fair enough! Loving the content, can't wait for another year ❤
Awesome List!
DotAGE was a favourite of mine. the dev's story is such an amazing story as well.
Hey man if you haven't played it, check out Rise to Ruins. It's really great but difficult. You assign villagers to jobs and build a town and protect it but you also have God powers similar to Black and White.
For a game like DotAge, being the only flaw to have 15 hour runs seems like pretty awesome.
I love to be able to expand and grow as much as I can on games like this!
The only thing I wish it had was a quick mode and an endless mode so people can have the inbetweens but it’s still awesome
@@OlexaYT We'll see, I got lot of stuff I want to do on the game and I am evaluating the feasibility of a quick mode too ;D
Completing the game lets you continue in endless, by the way!
For some reason I didn’t remember that hahaha good to know
Started of this year buying a bunch of games, so far I have only touched brutal company and had no time for any of the others 😅
Fantastic list!
thanks for the video
Great list, froml a great guy!
Dotage is sick
Amazing game
balatro my beloved
Brutal Orchestra is so cool beacuse it is a punk rock exploration of nihilism and absurdism. Like... that is the whole of it's story. If you said that is a good plot for a game... I would think you are just trying to sell me drugs. But no it is a good plot for a game.
I immediately picked up dotAGE right after watching this
A genuinely amazing game
I'm confused about number 2. Brutal Orchestra came out two years ago, not last year.
Rewatch the first 20 seconds of this video
Skipping intros bit my butt this time.
@@OlexaYT
By the way, speaking of dotAGE, have you seen Against the Storm? It doesn't advertise itself as a rougelike, but it definitely is.
I gotta check it out, on my list for 2024
Revita is good bro
Came out in 2021 and it was my game of the year that year
Man none of these games peaked my interest, shame.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Calling balatro a roguelike is insane. Fun game for sure tho
I mean in the modern definition it is. Quite literally advertised as a poker roguelike on steam.
I need ALL OF THESE to come to PlayStation now
Im making a game i hope you play :)
man, it's so tough to find people on the internet with taste. today i found one
Honestly surprised you mentioned Cobalt Core but not Wildfrost or Astrea
Wildfrost was extremely close to an honorable mention but it had some huge difficulty flaws on release when I played it.
Astrea, honestly, I really didn’t like. It was WAY too complicated and they did nothing to help the player, and that was by design. The difficulty curve was supposed to be that you were just confused the whole time
Lets see if revita 2.0 can be in your 2024 list!
mortal sin
"Cobalt Core could have had more put into it: more events, more mechanics, more bosses"
oh boy, does he know?
Know what?
I dont know either
Is there something that im missing?
If there is more to the game I haven’t seen, they should have made that more available earlier. Runs got pretty samey quick and I have around 15 hours in it at this point
There's going to be a bunch more stuff added in updates - the last patch (just before christmas) added a new event, and there's even more events and bosses getting tested on the experimental branch.
It's not *great* that the game released without them (since as you said, it does get kinda samey) but after a few more content updates the game should feel really fresh
Just stumbled on this channel and was kind of surprised the video started by shitting on many people's favorite game of the year. Good list though, nice production values. You just are a little incorrect about Dave.
Eh to each their own. I played through the entire game on my channel. It was great for about 1/2 of it. You could tell they went for quantity over quality and it showed. The sea people fetch quests that added nothing but time wasted to the game were brutal
Big brain
Balatro has killer music
😮❤
Where would tiny rogue be?
If I counted it on this list, it probably goes 5th
Too much thinking and clicking, not enough dodging and hitting. I'll stick to mechanical roguelikes
It was not a good year for action roguelikes at all.
Where is Tiny Rogues? Am I going crazy?
I played it for the first time in 2022, plus I played it for a total of like 3 days in 2023
Oh my bad! I didn't realize it was a 2022 game for you. I thought it came out this year. Keep up the great vids!@@OlexaYT
The big update was this year that made it a top tier game. When it released in 2022 it was just a good game :)
10th view!!
Tiny rogues by a mile.
Too late in the year for me to consider it as a top 10 of the year.
