Ink Inside
It's a Cartoon Action RPG from ex-Cartoon Network devs now based in Spain. Feels like a cartoon show. Great voice cast. Fun adventure with some comedy. And optional co-op.
Only $10!
Hempuli is a Finnish indie dev, best known for Baba is You
Inkle studios - UK - Heaven's Vault, A Highland Sing
Abbey Games - Netherlands - Reus, Renowned Explorers: International Society
Dimfrost Studio - Sweden - Bramble: The Mountain King
Don't know if it qualifies as an indie game but Clair Obscur Expedition 33.
Strange Horticulture and Strange Antiquities by the British studio Bad Viking
Valheim, with couple of friends it is one of the best games in decade. Done by swedish team iron gate and published by coffee stain which is also swedish.
BeamNG.Drive is German ๐
It's a softbody physics vehicle sim/sandbox game thing.
My favorite thing to do in it is to pair it with Automation: The Car Company Tycoon Game (NZ-based dev) where you can design vehicles and then export them to BeamNG to drive them.
Factorio is nice
Understatement of the decade
Kingdom Come Deliverance 1 and 2 by Warhorse Studios - Czech
No Manโs Sky by Hello Games - UK
Planet Coaster 1 and 2 and Planet Zoo by Frontier Development - UK
I wouldn't call any of those indie.
Isn't the Horizon franchise made by a Dutch studio?
Yes, Gorilla Games is a Dutch company
Stray, A Plague Tale, Noita
Tactical Breach Wizards has been a lot of fun lately
Lead dev of Ultrakill is Finnish and he said it's okay to pirate the game if you can't afford it
Soundtrack has some amazing tracks, too. Shame I get motion sickness from (fast) FPS.
I can second the soundtrack, which by the way you can get on Bandcamp.
I think this game has now an accessibility setting to slow it down? I'll have to verify it later
Not indie but still good:
Arc Raiders: it was produce by Embark Studios located at Stockholm
Town to City is a very cute and cozy city builder with a very calm pace, from a small studio in the Netherlands.
There are so many! What kind of games do you like? For example Spilled! Was made by a Dutch solo dev while living on her houseboat.
Wow new life goal
No one has mentioned S.T.A.L.K.E.R. yet?
I'm biased because I go to the same school these guys went to but check out Wrong Organ: https://www.wrongorgan.com/
They made Mouthwashing and How Fish is Made, both are weird as fuck
Noita absolutely rules, and is Finnish.
What about Tri: Of Friendship and Madness
It's a puzzle FPS kinda reminding me of Portal.
Intravenous
I suppose that they would still count even though their first game has been running for over a decade.
I love Keen Software House, and their games Space Engineers and the new Space Engineers 2 that is in early access.
(They are based in the Czech Republic)
Warehouse studios (KCD2) in a bit big for real indie but it's not AAA either. They are pretty European afaik.
Warhorse
Not warehouse
How about the fartastical Diarrhea 4? Not only by a European indie dev, but also inspired by a Lemmy comment!
This is stoopid; I love it!
EGOSOFT (the X series of space empire simulators) is based in Germany.
I'm not sure if it counts as indie, but I played Eriksholm in December and enjoyed it quite a bit. I'm also playing TR-49 at the moment that's scratching my Roottree itch.
