In spite of the fact that Cave Story was initially released in 2004, it holds up incredibly well. Featuring Quote, a cute, little robot, the player goes from screen to screen, blasting their way around Daisuke ‘Pixel’ Amaya’s sole-created world. One of the older and more famous indie game stories is Cave Story, an 8-bit masterpiece in the metroidvania genre. Leaping smoothly out of the way of death is every second of this game, and with more content to whittle away than hours in a Youtube Star’s catalogue, N++ is a must for any platforming fiends. N++ absorbs the player in a simple try, die and repeat formula which could get boring if the platforming did not feel as graceful and exciting as it does.
Forget about an in-depth storyline or quirky characters, this game uses stickmen-like figures and basic geometric shapes to entice. With its clean, high contrast colours and finessed controls, it brought platformers back to the basics. Metanet have created a stunningly simple platformer in the form of N++. But, as always, it’s not sheer volume that counts, it’s what’s inside. There are few games on this list which can boast of having more than 2000 levels, but N++ comfortably beats that milestone. So, without further ado, here are the 100 Greatest Indie Games of All Time. This list was assembled by our staff and you’ll find some of our personal favourites scattered throughout. But, we’re merciful gods and we’ve left the comment section open so remember to yell at us about all the fantastic indie games we missed and to tell us why we’re wrong and stupid.Įvery weird, wonderful and memorable entry on this list celebrates everything that makes indie games so special. Joking aside, we’ve chosen each one of these games based entirely on our own opinions, so your mileage is pretty much guaranteed to vary.
