Lorelei and the Laser Eyes and Crow Country were on my radar, but I hadn't heard of Cryptmaster before - definitely adding that to my list!

Yup, lots of really great looking indie games coming out. I make a post every month highlighting a bunch of them coming out that month, if you all need reminding of them in future. :D

1000xResist is the one I'm really looking forward to and have high hopes for. The demo was incredible and everything about it tells me it could be something really special.

Much like other media before it, my indie game consumption is strongly recommendation based as its impossible to keep up. Whichever one of those gets chatter going once they release ill go check out, otherwise I wont be able to manage

Nine Sols, Hauntii and Animal Well are potentially really great picks.

EDIT: Also Hades 2 EA!

Keeping an eye on this thread. Always good to have indies games to play, especially after playing 70+ hour open world games.

Wow that Crow Country game looks amazing.

Animal Well is a definite cop, Crow Country I may need to dust off the ol' "Gaming" laptop for... Or I can just hold out until it's [someday maybe] ported to Switch.

OP, I really appreciate the one-line genre classifications you provided.

Very excited for Animal Well. Will try and get to others as well, I find myself playing indies waaaaaaaay more these days - their shorter run times (and honestly, higher quality) compared to AAA games make them more enjoyable to me,.
