    Hi everyone! Welcome to my video of the top 10 indie games, and why I'm looking forward to playing so much later this year.

    • @esperago
      @esperago Před rokem +1

      Man, I misread the title. Thought it said "Best of 2022". I started to panic. Between thinking I somehow missed gigantic releases like Nine Sols and having never heard of so many of these titles AT ALL (Skate Story ftw???)... I was shaken to the core... questioning my reality. Then I re-read the title. Hot damn! 2023! Order and sanity restored to my universe! Thank the Lord.

I'm really happy to be back and will continue to focus on indie game discovery with analysis of the "why" along side the "what". I'll no longer be doing press release respins. I have opinions on just about everything :)

    I'm really happy to see the excitement for Dordogne. I've only ever been to france once, but I was lucky to meet Cedric Babouche while there. He's the comic book artist and animator who's leading the project. I have two of his books and they are the ones that got me started learning french just beacuse of how compelling the art was. I hope his first game is a hit

  • @guve25
    @guve25 Před rokem +14

    Here's the reason why I love indie gaming, and that's the small team (even down to just 1 person on Stardew Valley case) and the small budget these games usually represents. To succeed they will have to maximize creativity that usually brings about new and exciting gameplay, art design, game mechanics, and any other thing that brings unique experience. I wishlisted Dordogne and a Highland Song because of this video.

    I never heard of it before this video but Skate Story immediately grabbed my attention. The graphics and story seem so unique and I definitely feel like picking this up. A lot of other games on this list have peeked my interest too, Silksong being obviously a favorite and a game I’ve been looking forward to for years now.

The Plucky Squire, Dungeons of Aether, Botany Manor, Loco Motive, Gunbrella, Paper Trail, Terra Nil, Mika & the Witch's Mountain, Up To Par, Word Factori, Wizard With a Gun and Sokobond Express and that's just the stuff on my list with a listed 2023 release. Did remind me to add Skate Story though and Nine Sols looks really neat. 2023 looking to be so exciting.

    Definitely sharing the buzz for Sea of Stars and Dordogne. Added Nine Sols thanks to this vid.
    Quite weary of the wait for Silksong at this point, but it's still gonna be a "day 1 purchase, cancel everything in the calendar and crack on" type of situation when it finally drops :D

      Yeah, like why has it taken so long anyways? Each year we think it's going to launch; there are rumours, STEAM data release dataminings, etc. But nothing. It feels like vapourware at this point. Hope I'm wrong 'cause the original game was really fun! I liked it more than Metroid Dread.

    Welcome back! Always tryin to keep an eye out for cool games and your videos defiitely help!
    All these games are lookin super cool! Nine Sols i particularly remember enjoying the demo for.
    Not sure if its technically indie, but it is self published, i gotta mention Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2 by CyberConnect2.
    First game is one of my absolute favorite games of all time and I already know the sequel in May is gonna be my GOTY.
    So I have to bring it up considering so many folks apparently arent aware of it.
    (And if you decide the studios technically too big for it to count as an indie than thats ok! Just wanted to let folks know about something I love and hope they can get that love from it themselves. Not that I expect "oh i recommended this so you HAVE to feature it either" lol)
    First game didnt even make money back and theyre still goin foward with a sequel just cuz theyre passionate about it.
    Literally everything about it was so good, great game with lovely art, music, and characters thatll forever stick in my heart and i cant wait to see more of em.
