Even with threads like this, the problem is wading through / curation. Resetera should have a live top 100 indie games list (i.e. games you can buy right now - doesn't matter when they were released) as it's so easy to miss good indie games compared to AA and AAA releases.

This kind of Thread would be helpful, that for sure.
However This Thread is mostly active by me for upcoming indie videogames. Recently I decided to post released games as well [if I didn't post them in the past], but again the user him/herself must show interest for these kind of games.
Maybe a solution is to create my personal Top 100 Indie games I played? I would prefered for a Top 100 Upcoming Indie Videogames although.

It depends on what people are interested in. I never play Early Access games, and have little interest in upcoming games. When games are released - and good - that's when I'm interested. But it's so easy for good indies to slip through the net because of awareness, that's why some sort of rolling / updated top 100 (finished / released / available to buy) Indie games would be good.

Ideally like how Resetera does the best games poll every year, except they'd do best Indies and it can include previous years as well as new ones.

There's a reason we only do GOTY once a year, those polls take a lot of time and effort.
If anything we might want to have the OP updated with a 'best of' section that could get updated over time that both Sweetsark and the forum at large can suggest. Adapt Toma's top picks from each month into that I guess, since this basically takes both threads and melds them. Saves sark time and gives people a list so they don't have to get a backhoe to dig through nearly 30 pages of indie stuff

Neofeud 2 [PC]
https://silverspook.itch.io/neofeud2
TBA

A coup d'etat against the posthuman, immortal Neofeudal Royalty has resulted in a tentative return to a long-forgotten world of "Democratic Republics", "Equality, Liberty, Fraternity", and "Rule of Law".
But the ultrarich do not go quietly as workplaces are co-operatized, fighting the redistribution of their quadrillions, even with the threat of the guillotine. Riots, shootings are on the rise as inter-species tensions increase between humans and the humanoid machines, transgenics, non-corporeals entering their communities.

An ex-con robot from the slumsprawl ghetto and the radical socialist daughter of a billionaire wind up unwilling partners in the Coastlandia Police Department. Called in to investigate a routine self-flying aircar crash, they uncover a spiraling conspiracy involving far-right "Humanity First" groups, sentient machine neo-revolutionaries, and diehard remnants of hypercapitalistic Monarchies that will shake the social and cosmological fabric of the universe(s)...

Thank you!
If you want to organise the games you want to play in the future, do what I do:
Create folders into your PC and save Pictures of the games you want with their names and maybe the Developer/Publisher.
Here an example of one of my many files I have which I organise the games I want to play First:

But this is the tricky part: You will check for them only if you care about them.
Right now I count nearly 20.000 games I put in my files. Many of them are games I MUST play, even more that come second.
If I don't remember some games I wanted to play...better that way. Maybe after you search again your files and see these game got release after all, then you can play them.
With this you create a mindset that even if you forgot about a specific game you wanted to play you at least have it sonewhere for you to find it later.

I realize. it'd need to be a multipost thing to include all that, like the PC Era thread. That sai,d I kind of like having to sift through everything to find what I like. It's kind of freeing

Welp. Looks like the OP has been banned permanently.

Hopefully this thread can keep running in some form since I always thought it was a great idea. Maybe an indie expert wants to take the reins?

What? How?

What did they do to deserve a ban?

Don't tell me they banned them for posting more info of NSFW games?


Edit: I actually looked at his posts and it seems that it was the thread about his "personal database" that got him banned.

and yes, it was because of his tendency to post about NSFW games.

Well. "Making a thread featuring their full image database of games, which revealed more and more of their collection of porn games as the thread advanced, some of which was loli porn" sounds really absurd.

So maybe instead I just won't explain what happened.

Some pretty amazing looking games there, just in the couple last days.
I really, really like indie games.

And I'm sure you're not TRYING to say "it's okay to follow a pedophile if he's retweeting good content" here.

But you might want to remove that link.

Edit: Thanks. Sorry for assuming you were ignoring the issue instead of just being unaware of it.

Ouch. No, I wasn't aware of the worse of it, I thought he had been banned for the NSFW stuff. Sorry about that. :S

The thing is, he was very active in the indie dev thread and seemed like a really nice guy. This is pretty shitty news to me altogether.

I'd be game as well. I kind of dropped out of the Toma indie threads due to not playing as many games and not following the scene so closely.

But doing regular updates could work.

I must say, this thread didn't seem very suited for regular discussion like the old Indie threads

Would it be better to keep this thread going or start a more general Indie Game megathread for discussion?

I see no problem with keeping it an informative list thread. There's something nice about just seeing games with a description and cutting down on the noise. This thread has been an absolute boon to me before I had an account and I'd hope it could stay that way. I do still follow Sweetsark on twitter so I'm still seeing potential future buys, but I like this format more honestly.

If we were to start a new thread, I'd want an OP that was a little closer to Toma's style a couple notes on bigger releases/where to get them etc and then just follow SweetSark's format of update post every so often.

Hi. Looking for a game shared here a couple months ago.

I swear it was called "live in a Porcelain dream" or something very close to that.

Sidescroller, occidental developer, very nice art style, 3 playable characters... very very Alpha in production, just a few concept videos.

Any ideas?

Eldest Souls [PC]
https://fallenflagstudio.com/
TBA

Eldest Souls is a souls-like, pixel-art RPG. The Old Gods have long been imprisoned. Humanity has been prospering, with great Kingdoms arising on the now forsaken temples of worship. But no longer. In their final act of revenge, the Old Gods have unleashed a great Desolation upon the world. Farmlands turned to deserts, rivers to dust. The Great Crusade sent to slay the Imprisoned Gods once and for-all, is all but vanished, and the human Kingdoms are in disarray. A lone Warrior approaches the Citadel, ancient prison of Gods. His objective is one: slay them all. In Eldest Souls, the player will explore the vast, forgotten Citadel, in search of the Old Gods. The temple-prison will contain a great deal of NPC's , quests and mysteries. Encounters with the Old Gods will be…deadly. With a fast-paced, exciting action combat, every instant counts. But fortune favours the bold, and defeating the Old Gods will grant the player powers beyond mortal comprehension.

Here's something for fighting games fan ! It's out the 08/01, in two days, it's free and it's a one man army project of a friend of mine. He's doing a skin/costume creation contest during the launch week too if someone's interested.
