Hey, man, I wanna know if you've played any notable Indie Games recently? I've been trying to find more niche ones that not a lot of people talk about and knowing you, you play a lot of them. Thanks for anything Mate!

@Banana Man 4577 - Hello there! Just happened to see this... That's a noble pursuit! Let's see if I can't come up with anything. Though you didn't give me any reference for types of games or potentially how old it can be.
Hmm. Well I've been collecting far more than I have been playing. Besides the ones I mentioned last year, FREERIDE, PEPPERED, SANABI (The latter two both have updates since I played it last, with new content! Have yet to play them.)...
I played a game called Alice's World (278 reviews?), which is a game concept along a somewhat similar vein to Oneshot, though darker. (Avoid spoilers?) I could see wildly different reactions, whether you might appreciate it or not. Though I personally very much enjoyed getting into a roleplaying perspective, thinking about my actions carefully. And felt rewarded with the outcome. There's not a whole lot of action and it is a short game, but it had its impact. Worth a look:

I also played through the original version of MIO: Memories in Orbit earlier this year... Not really niche though. (2087 reviews!) It's a pretty decent platformer, very beautiful; quite fun to explore. Somewhat lacking in dialogue, but has a very interesting setting... The unpatched version I played upon release might have been a little harder than the current version which addresses some complaints and other balancing. Not my favorite game...? But definitely worth a look regardless. Do love a good metroidvania.

If you don't mind an older game (2022) I'll mention Curse Crackers (355 reviews) being an excellent 2d platformer with story, secrets and action galore! When on sale it can be very cheap as well... Bonus points if you've played Prodigal (522 reviews) before this! (A previous game with mostly indirect references in CC and a ton of content. Zelda-like game.) I'm sure I've mentioned CC before, but worth reminding since the demo for their next game just released for next fest. Curse Chapter: Dawnthief. I pretty much am a fan of all of their games; so without playing it, I'm already certain it'll be good xD
They also released a niche game recently, which I've yet to get around to playing, but kickstarter backed... Claire a la Mode (44 reviews).

Alabaster Dawn's demo (1548 reviews) is out and updated I think. Not a niche game but... likely to be a very good game if you liked CrossCode (super game!).

Hm... did I mention Grønland? It's an exploration RPG, no combat. (34 reviews) 2024 game. It was quite interesting to figure out the story... Probably not everyone's cup of tea, but definitely more niche.

Or how about 2021 game Rogue Sentry. Very niche (15 reviews). Pretty short, but had a blast if you like games like Remar's Hero Core (another great game, way older and free).

Iji of course is always worth a mention imo. Not exactly niche, but these days it has been long enough, that it might as well be? One of my favorite oldies, also free.
Strawberry Jam, Hyper Princess Pitch, Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt; all other free Remar games. Pretty niche? And he actually has a new game coming out eventually... Tower of Gold. Which ought to be great quality as well. Worth keeping an eye on.

Of course there are Cave Story mods if you haven't played them yet, like Evergreen :D Could make a list of a few others I need to replay sometime... Been too long already. Haven't been around too much :x
Let's see, what else...
Oh Jeez Oh No My Rabbits are Gone!!! (30 reviews) Is a niche game from 2019... Puzzle game. I forget who made it... weren't they members here?
Hm... I suppose I'll mention Kandria too, that game was fun to explore. (71 reviews) Certainly had more potential than how it ended up, but with its nods to CAve Story and other games I figure it's worth bringing up!

At this point I'm getting carried away xD Hopefully something catches your eye.
Freedom Planet isn't niche (3,263 reviews), but I really did enjoy that game as a fan of the original Sonic the Hedgehog 2d platformers... Was a lot of fun. Played the dragon, Lilac first. And will always remember how close I came from getting a game over on the final boss. Think I had like 30 lives entering the fight and was down to my last life by the end... barely won xD YES!!!!!

A visual novel called Minotaur (287 reviews), is getting pretty close to completion after like 10+ years in development... Lots of unforeseen circumstances and they ran out of money, but I've been wanting to play the completed thing someday... Several routes are already out, and I can easily recommend it for an adventure sci-fi story... (Only played Nod's route).

Oh... I made this playlist of a bunch indie games I liked. Need to update it:
www.youtube.com

The Best Indie Games

Share your videos with friends, family, and the world
www.youtube.com www.youtube.com

Maybe I'll work on that soon.

I have a ton more games that might better fulfill your request, but uh... I haven't gotten around to playing many recent ones! So can't judge if they are worthy. If you wanted something in particular though, I'd suggest saying if it's for your own entertainment, or for streaming; maybe what genre, or what kind of games are your favorites. Then could try to guess a better choice.

Anyway, peace out for now
... Really I'm going.......... ah here you go some more:

so uh i just got a closer look, and the '0' in 'Lv 0' looks very different from the other numbers... unless this is intentional for reasons we're not supposed to know yet, you probably want to keep all them numbers in a consistent style?

yes this was a mistake, the other screenshots are from after i decided not to change the font

Never, I don't think Fortnite will care about a 22 year old game...

And it depends if Nicalis wants it, which is, obviously, not the case.

Yo, thanks for Cave Editor! It sure is a semi-fine-tuned program.

Speaking of I'm noticing that now that there's a second page I can't get anything on it to open directly, it can still work if I filter out the upload from the front page but needless to say this appears unintentional
