- Sakuna of Rice and Ruin
- Kentucky Route Zero
- Crosscode
- Bloodstained Curse of the Moon 2
- Neon Abyss
So glad to see CrossCode on this list. What an amazing game.
Wanted to comment the exact same thing. I always get the feeling that few people know about the game and that it isn’t getting the success it deserves. Great to see it’s actually doing well on Switch after all. It’s one of my favorite indie games!
Alright guess I have to buy hades soon. Too many good things I’ve been hearing lol
I liked bastion, didn’t play too much of transistor.
Didn’t know about cross code. Adding to wishlist now.
Huh? Sakuna is not an indie game?? It really doesn’t feel like one. It has so much content and complexity to be considered one. Plus it costs almost like a full game price while the others are all around USD 20.
I think they just clubbed it in this list so it has more exposure and more people check it out.
Well no. Indie does mean “cheaper low budget game” its anything devwloped by a smaller independent studio( not counting publishing), which Sakura.
Also if it was in the top 20 indies games on the switch for a year like 2020, it doesn’t need exposure.
I know what indie means. They don’t an amazing rep when it comes to quality and polish and I don’t want people to mistake it for a game that is lacking because it’s not.
Don’t sleep on Rivals of Aether !
how is ori on this list? its a Microsoft game. like are they just going off the studio its self and not parent companies/publishers?
Moon studio is an indie developer as far as I know. Microsoft helped fund the game. They still did a very lousy porting job to Switch.
Wish I saw Unrailed! on here- that game needs more appreciation.
