Ive been trying some indie developed games this past year, more than ever and I'm in awe what lone devs or small teams can accomplish.

So, what are some games that you think don't have the recognition they deserve, need a bigger audience or you would like the community to try.

I myself for example have played Monster Sanctuary, which at this point I think is not that hidden anymore and played a rougelike game called Elona, haven't played RimWorld or Dwarf Fortress but I might in the future.

Sorry if a similar post already exists haven't checked.

If you like RW/DF, look into Factorio, Satisfactory, Oxygen Not Included. They're all sim/logistics games with different focuses. Factorio is more logistics/big factory minded. Satisfactory has more exploration. Oxygen Not Included is very physics based, you'll need to understand heat transfer by mid game.

I like Deep Rock Galactic a lot more than I thought I would. I don't usually like FPS's. It's coop only. There's mining, and the terrain is 100% destructible. The movement powers are amazing! I love the platform gun. Also, playing dress up with my chunky, ugly dwarf is the BEST.

Hardspace Shipbreaker is amazing. It's shorter than I want, but it's SO well done. I want more of it! You play a disassembler, taking ships apart and chucking the parts into their respective bins. However, the dystopian management has zero worker safety, so it's not so simple. The music is amazing. The voice acting, superb.
