For GGJ15, one of the group suggested the response to "What do we do now?"  would be a black screen that prompted you to ask the same question.
(On that note, what's up with GGJ's themes? They've gotten increasingly esoteric recently).

All the unsung RPG Maker games. The RPG Maker community is a repository of games made for the love of making games. They aren't all good quality titles, but they are raw and off-the-cuff. I've always had a certain degree of respect and envy for the RPG Maker community, they're all in without a single fuck given.

@JWK5, I totally agree with you, and I think the only reason their games are considered "low quality" is because they use default assets and an engine that focuses more on ease of access than functionality, which leads to games that look similar on a surface level.

There was a Kickstarter for a First person dungeon crawl (it looked terrible) where the guy talked about making the game for 10 years..
in one update video he mentioned that his wife had "changed the locks on the house" but he was still sneaking into the basement to code...

the indiest games were the first computer games running on university mainframes in the 70s.

it was forbidden to make these games (because the were considered a "waste of resources") and the developers had to "hide" them by naming them stuff like "p-edit5". thats indie as FUVK
