Indie Games Thread Anonymous 04/18/2025 (Fri) 01:14:38 Id: 275a7f No. 1123233
Discussion, previews and reviews of Indie Games. What indie games have you played recently? I'm gonna write stuff about Indie Games i've played in 2025 so far. Bunch of good games. --- I recently finished GIRLS MADE PUDDING a rare indie game made by japanese devs. You play as 2 girls on motorcycle, venturing the world where everyone suddenly disappeared. The core gameplay is looting ingredients and cook foods to unlock dialogues between the girls about bunch of topics, especially the state of the world and future plan. There are also 2 side characters. The dialogues are fun & Comfy and the worldbuilding (mystery behind the disappearance) is great. Kinda like Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou + yuribait

>>1977762 That has to be a word filter. What is it, Earthbound?
>>1977801 You know that's not what I meant I think that heartbound is a great game and that most people here just blindly hat on it because it's a "furry" game

>>1977943 Game came 10 years ago Gramps You think people just stopped giving birth moron?
>>1977998 There way better games to grow up on
>>1977762 You never heard the RPG maker craze 30 years ago.
>>1977762 Like many, many things it's not the original work. It's the fanbase.
When are these two games coming out? I know they say "you can't rush art" but I want to play good games, darn it. >>1972711 This looks incredible! I'm going to have to check it out later.
>>1982150 >Ill 2 years off at the very least I don't expect it before 2027 >That looks incredible Bear in mind it's kind of barebones from what I'm seeing in the reviews. Looks great though
Does anyone know when the Spooky Chocolate Thief gayme comes out? I hope the combat and exploration is better than in Starjew.
>>1982287 >Thief >Chocolate Thief A Nigger?
>>1977762 >>1977943 >Undertale was my childhood I guess it's better than Undertail being your childhood!
>>1977762 Undertale couldn't have been your childhood, it only came out a few years ago
>>1977762 >hearbound >childhood underage or bait
>>1982434 >There's a nonzero chance people who drink and drive now could've been playing Undertale when they were 11.
>>1982524 You can drink and drive at 11 years old too
>>1982434 Undertale came out 10 years ago and Heartbound came out 7 years ago idiot

>>1983625 Its been 10 years? Fuck you, I feel old now
>>1983722 So in 4 years it will be considered a retro game?
>>1982287 Give it another 2 years. That's my optimistic view on it. Not like it matters anyway, since he'll probably work on it for another 5+ years post release, just like his other game.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2159270/Kingdoms_of_the_Dump/ Welcome to the Lands of Fill! Kingdoms of the Dump is an SNES styled RPG set in a fantasy world of garbage, dreamed up by two full-time janitors. Join Dustin Binsley, the Trash Can Knight, as he travels across the five and half Kingdoms of the Dump. Fight fearsome, filthy foes, brave dangerous, dank dungeons, and take on the totally disgusting toxic grimelin army to save the Dump from all out war!
>>1989574 Is it fun? I downloaded it a while ago but haven't given it a shot yet
>>1989604 it's not bad
Been playing Zefyr. It's a pretty good game so far and I I bought it because I like it so much. This game apparently was a 12 year passion project inspired by games like Beyond Good & Evil and Zelda Windwaker
>>1991955 Damn, that looks fucking great, thanks anon. I'll play this while waiting for the madlads at OpenGoal to finish their Jak3 PC port so I can finish all 3 games on one go on my PC and relieve some memories.
I played these 2 short games this weekend >Princess of the Water Lilies A puzzle platformer where you control a cat trying to save the forest from mysterious robot kidnappers. Your mobility is very simple here, just Jump, Duck and Trigger various unique terrains to help you platform. Puzzles often require timing and dexterity. The difficulty is consistent from the beginning until the end. 4 main biomes. 3-4 hrs, depending on your IQ level. Short, but very fun. 7/10. >Disco Samurai A rhythm action game where you have to time your Attack, Dodge and Guard with the beat of the background music. There are 7 stage and the first 4 stages are quite easy, but there’s an insane difficulty spike at stage 5 and 7. The game got really difficult because enemies come in swarm and have multiple options to chain their attack that you have to counter differently AND you have so little time to react and no time to think since you have to act alongside the fast BGM beat. Fortunately, each enemy type has unique attack patterns, not random at all, so you can eventually get used to them. Despite being very hard, the game isn’t punishing a tall. Each screen/sub-stage is a checkpoint and you recover all your HP, so you can just keep retrying while learning the attack patterns. 8.5/10. A must play. I think I’ll play Kingdoms of the Dump or Constance next.
No release date yet but I really like the aesthetics of this game
>>1995316 >Kingdoms of the Dump If you get around to playing it, tell us how it is. I've seen it at a few showcases and it always caught my eye. I might draw porn of the cutie trash can
>>2007834 the aim system seems like the one of an hentai game.
>>2008097 I'm just 2 hours in and it's REALLY good so far. Nice visual aesthetic, interesting theme, nice BGM, changing equipment changes your character's appearance, fun writing There's overworld, no random encounter, 3D environment so you can also jump to discover hidden stuff and there's also a little bit of platforming sections. If you miss good stuff in the dungeon, the next town sells that equipment. The combat is well balanced with interesting mechanics like terrain damage, 3x3 tile-based skill targeting and movement where you can freely Move a tile / turn. There's also QTE system where you can press action button to Crit/Reduce damage, like Exp33 I guess (haven't played it). Leveling up gives a lot of stats and there's permanent stats upgrade items you can loot here and there, feels really rewarding. The negatives: - judging your 3D positioning while doing platforming is tough, so I fell on the water a lot - using Skills requires Metal that you can only get by looting the map. SO FAR there's no way to increase this Metal mid-battle - Controls can't be customized. This is an RPGmaker-like game, but made in Godot and the control is awkward for Menu-ing. Z is still Ok, but Cancel is SHIFT / ESCAPE, when I'm so used to using X to Cancel. There's also no R & L (Q & E) button too to Scroll through Menu Page
>>2013003 forgot to say that timing your action button to reduce damage is kinda annoying since each enemy has unique attack pattern with its own stupid feint/delay and magic attack with no tells is much harder to defend against. fortunately failing isn't much of a big deal.
>>2013003 show me his dumpy!

>>1930304 not much ryona or guro, just clothing dmg some superficial wounds and she ragdolls when killed
>>1930214 The chinese game dev's modus operandi is to copy an existing game and then change up enough so that it isn't technically a ripoff. Or in this case, not even that.
>>2013003 5.5 hours in, finished Act 1. Yep, this game is crazy good. Definitely on par with or even better than top western """J"""RPG like Sea of Stars & Chained Echoes.
