Given the big swathe of posts about bad behavior from big companies, I figure we could counterbalance that with some positivity about stuff the smaller guys made that often costs us less too.

Celeste is one of my favorite games period, and it qualifies. The gameplay parallels the story better than any other game I've ever played or seen played, and the soundtrack, art, and characters are amazing. Top tier gameplay and a great story to go with it.

Alternatively, if you're looking for absolutely unhinged strange gameplay made by a programmer rather than a game designer, check out Fractal Block World. It's pretty fascinating!
