Okay, I was looking for some good indie games.


I want to play La-Mulana, Adveritasunica, and Mop of Destiny, but none of them work on my pc. I love platformers. I already have Knytt Stories, Noitu Love, and Cave Story. I also love shmups. RPG's are awesome. I have Last Scenario and probably all the other famous Freeware RPG's. I can't get enought of Physics games. I already have Ragdoll Masters and the Dismount games. I also love strategy games.


Any suggestions?

'Toribash' is pretty excellent if you like physics based fighters, though it's a little more technical the ragdoll masters (and completely beyond me)

Talking platformers, definitely 'An Untitled Story', which isn't free for the full version, but it's only about $1/£1 and the amount of time I ended up spending on that is staggering. Great game.

A less polished game but still great fun is 'New Satan Sam', which features some pretty crazy action-platforming, with giant beams coming out of paws and super-charged swords that disintegrate villains in a single swipe. Plus, launching yourself into a fury-filled cartwheel to combo enemies to death is fun itself.

I have Toribash. It's awesome

I'll try Seiklus and Lyle again. I didn't like them the first time.

I tried the New Satan Sam. I liked it but I got too frustrated.

I didn't like Alex Adventure.

Try to find a version of Seiklus with music. If there's no music, stop playing. It takes half the charm away.

...Which means?


Also, in Lyle in Cube Sector, when I pause and press Shift (button 1) Lyle dies and I have to restart. Is that a glitch?

Dude, if you can't even play La-Mulana, I would seriously suggest upgrading your computer.

That being said, try Fraxy. It's an awesome arena shump with the ability to create your own bosses, and import other people's.

Ah yes. I forgot about Fraxy. It's the greatest shmup ever!

Indie RPGS: Try Aveyond, Cute Knight, and Sword of Jade, as well as some other famous-in-the-community-but-unknown-outside-of-it Ohrrpgce RPGs like Wandering Hamster, The Black Crown of Horgoth, Walthros, Wingedmene (which I helped work on), the ARFENHOUSE series... there are tons of great ones, although a lot of them are unfinished, even the unfinished ones can be fun.

Indie Platformers & Shmups: Tim at http://indygamer.blogspot.com reviewed pretty much all of them ever, I suggest checking out the archives there.
