>What the heck is this
/indie/ is the general for all indie games, such as A Hat in Time, Animal Well, Baba Is You, Balatro, Bat to the Heavens, Battle Brothers, Cave Story, Celeste, CrossCode, Cultist Simulator, Darkest Dungeon, Darkwood, Dead Cells, Disco Elysium, Environmental Station Alpha, FTL, Hades, Hollow Knight: Silksong, Hotline Miami, LISA, Lobotomy Corp, Loop Hero, Machinarium, Monster Train, Noita, Nuclear Throne, OFF, OneShot, Rain World, Shovel Knight, Slay the Spire, Starsector, Subnautica, Sunless Skies, The Witness, Void Stranger, etc., as well as other games that just don't fit in any other general such as Atelier, Pillars of Eternity, and Valkyria Chronicles. /jrpg/ is welcome. Idle, roguelite, shmup, 4x / RTS / city-builders, and RPGMaker games are cool too.

Mobile or consoles, Flash or Unity, freeware or early access. This place is a home for the indie game community and indie and obscure games that don't have a home. So be free to talk and share all your hidden gems, forgotten games and starving devs here.

>Can I talk about games that already have a general?
We mostly discuss games that are not popular enough for their own threads, however, all indie games are allowed. So talk about them if you want, but don't overdo it since you already have other generals for that.

your abilities are cards
thats kind of deck building
if you play d&d and print off your spells onto cards, you're kinda playing a deck builder

>>559227979
But your abilities are nothing like cards? You cast an ability, does it go into a discard pile? No, it stays there. Did that ability come from a deck? No? You didn't build a deck at any point?

It's been a while since I've played. I think the big gamechanger for me was getting the nanobots that stop the chinks in place and also getting a crewmember that scans the regions with high value minerals so you can prioritize those. Also get a refinery.

man, we need to go back to the simpler times
now if you try to make a game because something has inspired you so much, even if you're not going to sell it - there's a huge chance the devs are going to get uppity unless you either make it "legally distinct" or get their blessing beforehand
i've been in deeper indie dev circles and i've witnessed shitty dramas because some guy started making sprites in a vaguely similar style to the one that was in the upcoming game which inevitably made the fagdev loose his shit with a clique of yes-men creating an echo chamber to get his approval
why have people stopped treating the fact that someone is using something you've made as a basis for their own work not as a compliment of the highest order but as some sort of personal assault at artistic integrity
>>

This is why I don't like forums and Discord. When you can ban whoever annoys you, you end up with yes-men.

Kowloon's ghetto wasn't even that big, it was roughly the size of 3 to 4 soccer fields. I'm surprised to see so much fascination around it. You could visit most of it in a few days and most people in there were political criminals minding their own business.

Alright, after 16h of play Shadows of Doubt is slowly starting to get stale. There is still some content I haven't seen but it's getting to the point where I might take a break.

While waiting for the release of the big roguelike deckbuilder I've been playing a few of the ones in my backlog. In this case menace from the deep and its DLC, a game where the power of friendship made me 99% invincible but almost got me killed because the medic, dog and policeman I hired to assist me simply refused to attack the eldritch abominations driving me insane so I had to rely on an artifact adding free bricks to throw into my deck for longer fights. Less bad on the random mobs since you can stall most of them infinitely but the bosses all have a sanity damage attack in their rotation so they were on a soft timer. Also almost lost to running out of gas in my car but that seems like a meta-progression issue

Don't worry about it, I'm all in on INT and I just never remember/figured out when the game will let you cast Crusader's mantle or most of the spells in combat, so every single fight is just me getting curb checked until the encounter ends while sitting on fully stocked pimped spell slots. I hope I'll be able to make it when I don't have high CON for a different build.

2 hours into Dread Illusion and it's kinda meh. I hate to make uncalled comparisons but Avowed just tugged on my brain way more as first person action rpg parcour with mushrooms and old gods.
I took the 20 agi passive because it said faster running and higher jumping but you can't jump on shit and jumping against an edge throttles your peak jump massively. Environments are nice but lack shadows and lighting to really sell the gloomy look. Stamina system is pure shit. Lockpicking is a literal dice roll.
And I regret speccing mage because I still don't have a fun starter spell. Just teleport home and bewitching the enemy to fight for you.
Oh yeah the one singular background song is also no good enough to keep looping it like this.

I liked the start well enough, had a lot of hopes when the the game allowed me to restore some ancient eldritch god to power.
But then it quickly devolved into zooming around gigantic maps skipping as much of the unengaging combat as possilble. The undead zone and the underlands (I think that was the name?) were pure nightmare, started getting an headache playing through them actually.
Very disappointing game whose setting and art direction aren't enough to carry its horrendous gameplay loop.
A lot of half assed mechanics that don't really serve a purpose like the reputation system or the manor base. The stats are also pretty irrelevant to your gameplay, since you can't actually play stealthily and you will end up using your weapon as mage unless oyu wanna drink a potion every two minutes. You will also max them all easily if you do the content so really it just serves lock you off of the specific stats check requiring your lowest stats, but even there you won't feel it since the rewards are always of the same kind.
Overall I genuinely think it's an pretty bad game, at times (mostly in the endagme because the game will have drained you and you're still doing the exact same content as the 1st hour) even terrible.

Over 3 hours till I finally got a spell. I saw the boss in the bandit fort use it on me and got so mad that he didn't drop it or have it lying around in a book. Which also reminds me how little is interactable in the game. So many shelves and books lying around but none have an interaction for lore and local gossip. Having to sleep to have the store restock lockpicks was also more annoying than it had to be.
I's also quite bug heavy with stuff like paintings just zooming into a forever pillar and such.

I thought this thread would be alive with Slay the Spire 2 talk. Guess there isn't much to say considering it's basically just the same game with a fresh coat of paint and a new character or two to play as. There are literally identical cards and playstyles from the first game in it.

Can someone help me identify a game. I haven't played it but I remember it from a thread somewhere. It was some obscure indie horror game with infinite rooms or something. I think there were mechanical doors. Everything was rusty and had that eastern European developer vibe. The title was some non English name I think. It was before the whole backrooms thing blew up.

I have my doubts, but maybe you do. But I don't have much to go off of.
The only thing I know for certain is that it was a sidescrolling 2D platformer. The rest is a little fuzzy. I think the artstyle was was this early 3D CGI baked into sprites. Also I swear the character you played looked exactly like picrel, sunglasses and all, at least when I saw people spread that image I thought that game was where it's from. But apparently it's just from some emoticon pack or something. Also I think either you or the enemies might have had access to different guns.
The setting might have been vaguely Egyptian tomb-esque, but I could be completely off or maybe it was just a handful of levels since I think we never got far.
And I went to that school from 2006 to 2008 so it has to be older than that.

Samosbor is a weird setting coming from the Russian 4chan. It's kinda like the backrooms or SCPs, except it hasn't yet been ruined.
>>
>>559507757
>the backrooms or SCPs, except it hasn't yet been ruined
What's funny to me is how the backrooms, from what I saw, have been ruined in a very similar way to how some of Lovecraft's works have been ruined: by trying to categorize them and making up some overarching lore and shit.
In the case of Lovecraft, I don't like it when people try to connect the dots of his pantheon, explain which gods came from where, have which aims, are related etc. They are supposed to be obscure and unknowable, categorizing them ruins the point.
And the one time I looked into it, the same happened to the Backrooms, where it's no longer just this fun little creepy internet story, but apparently there are now different versions and layers to the Backrooms and each of them have their rules and lore and that's just so besides the point man.
>Russian 4chan
fun place, used to lurk there a lot, until it become insufferable in 2022 (at least the boards I hung out on). Haven't checked back since.
>>
>>559508237
Lovecraft has also been ruined by Derleth, who tried to have good ancients, and bad ancients.
I started hating the backrooms when they introduced levels, but the final nail was when they introduced monsters and started bullying everyone who didn't follow their headcanon.
>>
>>559508373
>I started hating the backrooms when they introduced levels, but the final nail was when they introduced monsters and started bullying everyone who didn't follow their headcanon
Damn, makes me glad I never looked into it more. I've just seen that there are a billion games based on it and was confused how the fuck that's even possible, since it's supposed to just be this weird empty space. The Lost in Vivo bonus level was cool and I was confused how you'd want to make a whole game based just on that.
>Lovecraft
(spoilers ahead, for anyone who hasn't read, I guess)
Honestly for me even Mountains of Madness was a bit too much. I know for many people it's their favorite story and I can see why. But the way the second half went into this expansive timeline of who lived on the earth before us and how was a bit too much for me. Sure it;s its own kind of horror to suddenly find out there were whole civilization here before humanity that we never knew about, but I wish it would have been less explicit. Or maybe I'm misremembering and it wasn't as bad.
That's why I love Color out of Space so much, the "villain", if you can even call it, just feels like an unknowable force of nature and it's 50/50 if it even has a goal it consciously or unconsciously tries to achieve or is just a radioactive magic rock from space.

It's a shame, because I like the concept, but the backrooms are best used as what they are: holes in reality. MyHouse.wad and Abiotic Factor used the backrooms in the best way possible, but when they're the main focus, they suck.
I mean, one thing I read is that the backroom smell of almond. It's meant to evoke cyanide and the idea that you're a dead man walking. Yet all the backrooms games feature "almond water" as some HP-recovery item.

For me, Call of Cthulhu is the best, but I'm a sucker for these stories where you get different accounts from different places and they finally converge together at the end.
Or when gentlemen meet up in a fancy club, and exchange odd occurences that happened to them all but all share a common them, and the movie played on that perfectly.

I always thought the Colour was sentient, but not intelligent, more like acting by instinct. It just happened that even its instinct was smart beyond human comprehension.
But yeah, it depends a lot from the interpretation. Lovecraft's novels, by themselves, are not fun to read, but the Call of Cthulhu movie, I loved it, and a few cases of the mangas are bonechilling. Like that one where a guy get obsessed with a belltower, and, one night, something breaks out of the belltower, but rather than flying away, comes to stare at the guy, directly through his window.
He gets so scared he dies right away.

I think it was the Lurker in the Dark.

ok i know i probably shouldve known better but holy shit the communication to the player which interactions work are so bad in this game sometimes and it really intentionally just wastes your time. beanies even had some mocking line about "lol now you have to do the whole quest again"
