Awaited Indie Games Thread

Post by Blackmoor »

This thread is for indie games or game projects you are looking forward to other than Factorio.

Gunpoint:
You're a freelance spy, infiltrating high security buildings with subterfuge, gratuitous face-punching, and an unusual type of electronic sabotage. You can cross-link things like light switches and doors so that the guards unwittingly take out their own security systems, their colleagues, and even themselves.

Shadowrun Returns:
Shadowrun Returns is a 2D turn-based RPG with an emphasis on storytelling and tactical combat. It is being developed by the creators of the renown tabletop game and Sega Genesis game titled "Shadowrun," who bought the rights back from Microsoft and began a Kickstarter to bring the game to the PC.

This might or might not count, but the Terraria 1.2.0 update.

Actually Redigit (also known as Red) is the lead developer on Terraria. Tiy was the spriter for the game.

Tiy actually did a good amount of code as well. And I know Tiy was at one point the lead dev, this changed recently. Red didn't do sprites though, which is why he had to hire a new spriter to work on Terraria 1.2

Bonfire: http://moacube.com/games/bonfire/
From the developer's website: Bonfire is a tactical RPG with a puzzle element. The puzzle is: “How the hell am I supposed to survive this!?”
It's currently in alpha but purchasable.

Possibly also Solstice (http://moacube.com/games/solstice/) by the same developer. It's a visual novel, which isn't a genre that I'm a big fan of in general, but it looks very well-made.

A note about Gnomoria!
Gnomoria is not a Dwarf Fortress with GUI. It only uses similar setting but that is all. Also Gnomorias developer has no intention of making a Dwarf Fortress clone but rather something uniqe.

It the closest thing so far to a DF with GUI though, and IMO that makes is great.
I did say similar.

DF has been around for ages and has had plenty of time for features and depth to be added..

If Gnomorio continues development for a while it will get a lot more complex then it's current state.
