    For this list we're diving into the diverse realm of independent game development, finding those titles that most enchant, intrigue, and entertain us. We're avoiding any indie games that started out being published or funded by a major company - for example, while the 2012 game “Journey” isn't lacking for excellence, its publisher being Sony Computer Entertainment excludes it from this list.

      But even before that, it really just felt too big to be grouped with other ones. You don't normally think of indie games to be as loved by the mainstream crowd as Minecraft became, even before Microsoft.

      @dezmindpapageorgio5437 5 років тому +1

      I would agree, Cave story should have AT LEAST made it to the top 3, but he did comment "unfortunately the script had already been finalized" so I understand -but still😡. Anyway, I was kind of offended that he didn't even mention how in depth and emotionally touching Cave story was, nor did he show any footage of any of the really decent parts (labyrinth, core, plantation, hell, Etc...), plus (some) of the music was a little bit sad when combined with the story, it is said to be even depressing. NOT TO MENTION, BALLOS, Curly brace (and her own mode), MULTIPLE ENDINGS, Secrets, Perfect-Masterfully-made game design, and so on I could LITERALLY go on forever.
      PS. that one super secret prinny-cap thing for ONLY ONE of the Versions. (look it up on the internet)
      PPS. That one fake but SOOOOOO realistic mod (fourth or fifth ending) considered to be "truly the best ending for cave story", I have to say it was PERFECT x 10.

    Two indie games that I would recommend is Cave Story and the other one which is less known, Dreaming Sarah. I will admit that Dreaming Sarah is quite a interesting game cause it's kinda creepy and maybe weird but on the other hand, Cave story is like a platformer with an run and gun style shooting. I really enjoyed the characters and story but not so such with Dreaming Sarah but they're both worth trying out!

      I am honestly not going to argue with your opinion (Even though I do like Minecraft) but Minecraft has honestly gotten worst in both game play and popularity. People are starting to hate on it, most updates are just out of place. It was after Microsoft bought Minecraft that it started going downhill from there. I would say Shovel Knight would be Number 1 because its decent in popularity, a very small amount of people hate on the game, the game play is amazing, and the updates are also a fun touch with free DLC as well. If it was the older Minecraft when everything wasn´t about that topic then I would agree, but it has changed to become worse sadly.

      GOAT SIM?! Really? That's just a sandbox with semi-funny scenarios! The Forest isn't that good at all. There are many better survival/horror (I don't really remember how that game goes 'cause it wasn't memorable at all) games. A Story About My Uncle is good, but there are muuuch better platformers like Spelunky, Super Meat Boy, and Dustforce DX. The FNAF series is pretty bad. It banks its scare factor on jumpscares, which is pretty shitty. LIMBO and INSIDE have much better creepy atmospheres
