Hey Destructoid, I find myself in a pickle and am drawing a blank, so I am writing this article in hopes that the vast majority of you can help me pick out some new indie games to play, either recent releases or games coming out in the next few months.
I have a host of flights and events to attend in April and wanted to load my Switch 2 and Steam Deck with a bunch of games to play the pass the travel and when looking at recent releases, I am pretty stumped on what to pick up. So I’m hopeful some readers can give me a list of game recommendations for me to check out, while also sharing game suggestions with the community in the process.
I should preface that I am open to anything when it comes to indie games and have already been playing a ton of recent releases in my spare time.Deltarunehas been a big one, and I’ve been replaying all four released chapters to get the secret endings and have a weird route with the Snowgrave storyline.
I also recently picked upPEAK, which is a fun multiplayer-focused game about climbing and surviving with friends. It’s hard to explain, but do give it a look over if you have the time. It has a bit of R.E.P.O. tomfoolery, but with survival elements and working together to scale mountains and weird biomes.
I was considering picking upFNAF: Secret of the Mimicas well, but I’m a big baby when it comes to horror games, let alone indie horror, and don’t think it’s fair for fellow passengers to hear me scream at the top of my lungs several hundred feet in the air.
Realistically, I want to hear your suggestions and would like a mix of quick indie darlings and games that’ll keep me engaged. Bonus points for any roguelikes or titles that can become a timesink, so I can pass time playing them all over multiple travels and events.
So with that in mind,please comment below any recommendations you have,and remember to keep it indie. While obvious games are coming out in the next few months, likeTony Hawk, Donkey Kong Bananaza, and Grounded 2,to name a few, I want to spend some time playing games I can enjoy in my spare time, not ones I’ll likely need to work on.
