What I played for Indie Game : The Event
31 Games
Replay because I needed a 2012 game.
1
Yeah, it looks generic as fuck and takes a lot from 3D Mario, but... Had a great time in every stage and getting all the collectibles. Unfortunately, they padded the medallions with the tasks and key repeat challenges. It really makes me want to play Sunshine again.
2
Just killed the throne but didn't loop, so I need to go back to this. I really enjoyed it partly because runs were so short making it easy to have that feeling of 1 more run.
3
I know it gets talked up as one of the best, but I just saw all the annoying things it has from Isaac. I appreciate they tried to fix some of the issues, like letting you speed up in between rooms, teleports, and saving health drops, and you could check the Ammonomicon to read each item, but it still seems like a wiki game. Creating your own cover with tables, though, is pretty nice. Maybe in the future, I could go hard on this.
4
Such a short experience, but I really wanted more of that spy movie feeling.
5
I played this like 8 years ago and dropped it pretty quickly. I'm starting to realize I like more and more games that are just boss rushes now. I still wish you could rematch bosses instantly like you do with the final boss, but it was still a great time.
6
It was probably the weirdest game played, and I had no idea what to expect. What I got was a short, eerie, and relaxing experience.
7
This was another one I initially dropped years ago after seeing how many levels there were. Only completed episodes A-C in solo legacy but that's already 300 levels... Sometimes a game just has too much.
8
It's a pretty good puzzler, and I did enjoy my time with it, but I just didn't have any desire to do the optional/secret levels.
9
I really liked the weapon variety and the music. Everything else is just fine.
10
I don't have too much experience with twin-stick shooters, but I enjoyed this one. I liked the variety of characters you could play. I could see it being better in co-op, or if I cared more for the ranks, I would rather just play Nex Machina.
11
It was a bit of a slow burn, but it was very easy to immerse myself here. I enjoyed the mystery here and, for once, the voice acting.
12
I was really enjoying this for worlds 1-3, but once world 4 hit, it became a bit annoying. From World 4 onward, you are not able to prepare to see the purple shots materializing out of nowhere, so it really just becomes a lot of trial and error.
13
Replay because I needed a metroidvania.
14
I wish there was just more to this game... It really could have been great if there had just been more variety in the platforming. It needed just a bit more mechanics to play with. It sucks we're not getting a sequel or something else from the developers.
15
The campaign was just so boring and mindless. The other modes look like they could be fun, but I'm already burned out on this genre.
16
This one was just ok. Yeah, it's cool there are a bunch of different routes and endings depending on what you do. It even surprised me a few times with where it went, but I was just annoyed the entire time with the narrator.

Artsyle and combat didn't do anything for me.
21
I did about 15 levels before I realized I just didn't care about this at all.
22
It reminded me too much of Cave Story with how it plays. I'm not too big on Cave Story and don't want to play it again.
23
It feels like it could be good, but I can't shake the feeling that I would rather play Layton instead.
24
Cool gimmick but fps are still boring to me.
25
Way hornier than I expected. It put me off the series entirely, and it didn't help when others said the gameplay wasn't anything special.
26
I expected this to be like GB Zelda. I got just basic "puzzles" and stuck twice in the scenery through screens.
27
Idk, just didn't click with me at all.
28
Not what I expected, and I quickly realized it would just be walking and typing everywhere on my deck.
29
I can't stand this kind of humour.
30
I dropped this 8 years ago and tried again now, only to realize it should have stayed dropped.
