Fantastic titles made by people in their bedrooms.

Lunacid - King's Fieldalike with a great atmosphere and PS1 era esthetic. Fun hidden secrets (sometimes a little too obscure, but whateva, still fun) that I fell in love with as a fan of the OG From Soft King's Field/Eternal Ring games.

Signalis - A thought provoking horror sci-fi game about an android trying to find their missing ship captain on a far away planet. I don't want to stay more to stay away from spoilers, but this plays homage to OG Resident Evil and other early survival horror games from a top down perspective.

Pyre - A sports game and VN hybrid made by Supergiant games. Not as popular (At least I think) as Hades, Transistor, and Bastion. Just fantastic story and world building with characters that you end up feeling so passionately for by the end of the game. Just a wonderful game and probably my favorite Supergiant game barely in front of Hades.

Dusk - A retro FPS ala Quake 1 era games. The game that kicked off the newest resurgence of "Boomer shooters" and is one of the best out there. Wonderful secrets and level design along with some solid atmosphere and scares by those New Blood boys that I love so much.

Dusk and Ultrakill both are my favorite.

I've been putting off playing Ultrakill until it finally releases, but from the little I had to check out when I bought it; I thought it was great. I'm excited to play it. Dusk is also just fantastic. It's hard to pick a favorite from the New Blood games for me. Amid Evil is also up there.

Amid Evil. Yeah, I will definitely play it after upgrading my laptop.
