[Indie Games] Stardew Valley hits PS4/One on 12/14

Well, usually, anyways
Here is an example of one that is a full-priced $60, a bit of an anomaly for now but hey, game development is only getting more expensive

It looks really nice like a big budget AAA game, and that video shows off quite a bit of what you can do in this game, in case you were wondering

There it is being shown off on-stage at E3, getting a huge marketing push like a big budget AAA game
It even has sexy box art! If you were to open that case and take a whiff of that new game smell, I bet it'd even smell like a big budget AAA game
But it's not. No Man's Sky is being developed and self-published by Hello Games, and will release on August 9th for both PS4 and PC
This isn't just a No Man's Sky thread, because that's not what the thread title says. This thread is for "smaller" games, without getting into the semantics of what that means exactly because it's nebulous as hell. If it's Kickstarted, it most likely belongs here
Here's some other indie games!
Shantae: Half-Genie Hero releases on September 27th for the PS4, Xbox One, Wii U, 3DS and PC, and it will likely be rad as shit just like its predecessors. The first game in the series was published by Capcom, but WayForward has published the other two titles in the series themselves, this newest entry being funded by Kickstarter

Yooka-Laylee, which will be coming in on PS4, Xbox One, Wii U, PC, Mac and Linux (if you're into that) was just delayed to early next year, modeling another way in which indie games are becoming more and more like their big-name brethren. It looks really cool though! Here's a trailer they just put out. I pray this will kick off the revival of the 3D platformer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1gxLvbX3Ow
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night appears to be on track for its release on PS4, Xbox One, Wii U, Vita, PC, Mac and Linux early next year as well, but Kickstarter games do what they do, so don't hold them to that. Good news if you backed this thing at the level of $60 or higher - you should be getting a playable demo really soon! The same one they're showing off at E3, apparently. For the rest of us, here's the newest development update video. Editor's note: final game will have enemies in it.

Mighty No. 9 is a game that's out in like...less than two weeks? It's out on basically everything - PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii U, PC and Mac, with 3DS and Vita versions to come TBA. MN9 is a touchy subject because a lot of people seem displeased with the route its development has taken, but I'm sure there are likely still quite a few people here excited to play it. Here's a trailer! It's not that one, but it seems to have the same guy doing the voiceover again?

SteamWorld Heist is a game that's out right fuckin' now for PS4, Vita, 3DS, PC and Mac, and at some point this year will also be hitting Wii U, Xbox One and iOS. It is basically 2D XCOM with robots. It is really cool. Have another trailer

It seems good! I'm excited for when it hits now. Even though that's early 2017 now.
*reinstalls The Long Dark
*reinstalls Sunless Sea
Im good to go.
Steam
I fell off of Amplitude pretty quickly
Licensed music is such a huge draw for the older games, and while the soundtrack on this Amplitude was fine, it's not really why I come to the series
Seem to be a bunch of cool games in this little roundup.
Steam // Secret Satan
Oh my.
Yesssss
No no, the proper reaction is to go be shitty to the studio on social media.
(Obviously don't actually do this, but I'm still really fucking upset that this a thing that happened)
Bloodstained looks really not
But I don't like Castlevania so take that as a good sign
We've got a banjo rebirth, a megaman rebirth, a castlevania rebirth, a Shantae rebirth, etc, heh
Shit like this is why im glad im not on the internet so much these days, I had zero idea... christ thats stupid
I said The Long Dark because No Mans Sky guy mentioned it as a inspiration over a year ago, maybe instead of doing that those people should have just played games that are inspiring to the creators?
Heck they are such big fans, Long Dark being reinstalled might be part of the reason NMS got delayed :rotate:
Mighty No...10?
Set a hundred years after the first.
Not in-game, I mean that's when it's coming out.
Yeah, it looks like the most Castlevania-ass Castlevania game, it's gonna be great.
Edit: It's been found.
The tale of Brigador
but invisible inc remains the only game of theirs to actually capture me with its gameplay

Same but with Mark of the Ninja
Invisible Inc. seemed well crafted enough but just could not get its hooks into me
If I were better at strategy stuff I'd be super into it but I've been learning the hard way recently that I suck at those kind of games.
tactical strategy the genre that finally taught me that getting really good at a game can be very not worth it
but invisible inc. is a LOT more fair than XCOM, so they're not all cut from the same cloth necessarily

Getting almost a Donkey Kong Country feel from the animal form stuff.
So stoked.
Don't like platformers?
Anyone know?
its more that platformers don't like graham
Ah, that really is too bad. Shantae is a really good series.
