  Nothing else like it out there.

  I keep meaning to check this one out but haven’t yet. store.steampowered.com/app/1290170/Titan_Chaser/

  Pushing the definition but I started when it was still in beta… Minecraft has gotten hundreds and hundreds of hours put into it.

  Terarria and Starbound are both really good and scratch that same itch as Minecraft. Core Keeper is another one that has some of that feel and I ended up really enjoying.

  Surprised I haven’t seen it mentioned but Cave Story was made by one guy doing everything… and everything in it is immaculate. It’s still free for the original version as well.

  Stardew Valley is awesome and restarted a genre.

  Crypt of the Necrodancer is awesome, and well worth checking out… also goes on sale really cheap.

  Pacific Drive is a fun one to check out. If you’re from the PNW, it will hit even more.

  Really enjoyed Stray. Worth grabbing on a sale.

  OwlBoy was a delightful game with a lot of character.

  Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night was a really nice return to form if you like IgaVanias.

  If you like roguelites then you owe it to yourself to check out Enter the Gungeon (isometric) as well as RoboQuest (fps).

  If you want a game that’s beautiful, with emergent story and is hard af… definitely check out Rain World.

  Is Black Mesa still considered indie? It’s how I would recommend anyone play Half-Life 1 these days.

  Rusty’s Retirement… isn’t so much a game… sorta… but yeah… check that out.

  Yeah… I think I’m less upset they changed the type of game… and more that it’s just creatively bankrupt cash-grab nonsense.

  But but… the new era of “innovation”… by bringing back watered down versions of old stuff… including loot boxes, which ostensibly was half the reason for the Overwatch Too release. We’ll be lucky if they don’t find some way to add AI dlc or something at this point.

  I hope we get pictures of bumblebees on nickels soon… five bees a for a quarter I’d say.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Legend of Zelda following Twilight Princess.

  TimeSplitters following future perfect.

  XIII following… the ending of XIII cliffhanger.

  Half Life following HL2 E2 cliffhanger… or L4D3… or Portal 3…

  Overwatch following Jeff Kaplan

  Cave Story following Cave Story 1

  Oh man I hope they do it as a gritty live action grim dark retcon origin story that entirely explains Herobrine’s past starring Jared Leto as Herobrine and shows his face and eye color. /s

  A “spectator”, specifically. A lesser beholder.
