unlabelledView post →Oh wow, this pick n' mix bundle is absurdly good. Almost every game in here is a recommendation from me or something I've been wanting to play. £3.33-£2.85 (likely direct conversion to dollars) per game, depending on how many you grab. FOUR Steamworld games count as just one & Anodyne 2 is magic.
unlabelledView post →If you want to play and discuss Anodyne 2 with others (potentially even locally!) then The Game Club could be for you!!
unlabelledView post →It gives the games a very friendly, cozy aftertaste. This sense that the artist is overjoyed that you liked the experience enough to want to talk to them (or, at least, their videogame facsimile) about it afterwards. I wrote a bit about Anodyne 2 and that vibe over on PC Gamer a while back.
unlabelledView post →Putting my own suggestion in here, please try out any game by Analgesic Productions. Anodyne 2 is one of my favorite games ever, and they just released a new game called Angeline Era! store.steampowered.com/publisher/an...
unlabelledView post →198.) Anodyne 2: Return to Dust There really is not a game out there like this. Liminal, lonely, esoteric... and that makes the intimate moments of connection all the stronger 9.5/10
unlabelledView post →I'm interested in game-dev :> if you're interested in that kind of thing! Here's an environment I helped make for an LSD:Dream Emulator and Anodyne 2 inspired project I've been working on.
unlabelledView post →Last week, we were all introduced to the wonderful word "organscape." which is like a landscape, but made of organs. We learned it because we were vored by a person made of tongues. Let's play more Anodyne 2, a very normal game with a normal setting and number of mothers. www.twitch.tv/glottal
unlabelledView post →9) Anodyne 2: Return to Dust With a 3D overworld and a more explicit story, I think Anodyne 2 is my favorite game that the studio put out (that I've played, anyway).
unlabelledView post →NOW PLAYING THE DEMO FOR ANGELINE ERA!!! The new game by the devs of Anodyne 2!! Very excited to try it out! TUNE IN! www.twitch.tv/padabana
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2 is the first video game ive ever played where the player character openly has a mommy kink
unlabelledView post →1.) Anodyne 2: Return to Dust You really won’t find a game as strikingly unique and inventive as this one and it’s probably my pick for favorite indie game of all time. It’s impossible to describe what I love about it properly so just trust that if you play it you will not be dissapointed.
unlabelledView post →Heya folks, here's a videograph featuring Anodyne 2: Return to Dust by Melos Han-Tani, Marina Kittaka, and Analgesic Productions This game is actually set in a 3D and a 2D world. You explore in 3D but when you shrink to microscopic level, it turns 2D. #anodyne2 #indiegames #videography
unlabelledView post →I played through and beat Anodyne 2....man....what a weird but great game. It gave me a strange, indescribable feeling like Hylics 2 did lol Highly recommend; it IS a walkthrough game, kinda- which is cool imo bc it has the feeling of an old cryptic N64 game
unlabelledView post →ANODYNE 2: RETURN TO DUST - That game was great, really fantastic storytelling between the overall story and the little vignettes. Also the fucking 'metacoin' shit was so fucking funny and I cannot believe this predates Facebook rebranding to Meta. I'll def be thinking about this one.
unlabelledView post →how many of you guys are familiar with Anodyne 2: Return to Dust? i love that game sooo much but i literally never see like, ANYONE talk about it haha
unlabelledView post →Judero update: After a few more hours, I think I can keep my high recommendation. It's jank as fuck but incredibly absorbing. Gives me similar vibes (in a different frequency) to Anodyne 2. This is a game that is a testament to why the indie space is so special. #Blutoid #VideoGames
unlabelledView post →Oh hey Anodyne 2 which is one of the strangest, most pleasant indie games of the last decade is now open source (on the VVVVVV noncommercial-use license) store.steampowered.com/news/app/877... You don't need to play the first game first, the series might even work a little better in reverse order
unlabelledView post →Angeline Era I like the story/atmosphere of Anodyne 2 more but this is so far ahead in terms of gameplay that it's easily my favorite analgesic productions game now. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to recapture the spirit of falcom games like gurumin or nayuta no kiseki

We'll start working on the first episode, with new games and more production, soon. Follow us if you want! Ape Escape 3: Me lol Anodyne 2: @towndarling.bsky.social Mirror's Edge: @menitta.bsky.social
unlabelledView post →Did I pick Anodyne 2 for this month because I knew that the devs' newest game, Angeline Era, would gets so many IGF noms? No. Should you join the club to talk about this and other amazing titles? Yes. Should you pick up Anodyne 1 + 2 and play them no matter what I say? Very much yes!
unlabelledView post →🎮Anodyne 2: Return to Dust🎮 This is one of my favorite games EVER and I realized I haven't talked about it here. It's a surreal scifi game where you complete 2D levels within a 3D world. Really a game that makes you embrace things that are kind of weird! The art, music, and levels are all so good.
unlabelledView post →My new game HYPERSCALE RED is out now! Made for #GMTK2024 whose theme was "built to scale". Climb a gargantuan statue of mario with the Anodyne 2 character controller. The Mario is scaled proportionally to the character based on their relative sales. play here: ergman.itch.io/coin-trail-red
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2 replay impossibly lovely game. it's themes are hitting me critically harder than it did 5 years ago for Reasons that aren't important. i love being reminded that games can have such a profound effect on the mind.. it's a SuperArt. it also loves going out of bounds almost as much as i do.
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2: 3D/2D zelda (?)-like, the kind of game I've wanted to do for a long while. store.steampowered.com/app/877810/A...
unlabelledView post →but during that time I did game jams and started to really get into coding. When I daydreamed about games I wanted to make or play, Anodyne often came to mind. When I finally played Anodyne 2, I was struck by how many completely out-there ideas that felt like my own I was finding in the game. (2/4)
unlabelledView post →4 Anodyne 2!!! han-tani.itch.io/anodyne-2 I have talked about this game before, but it is one of my favorite games/media/artwork of all time. Hybrid 2D pixel/3D low poly RPG with nods to old games and narrative impacting the gameplay. Please play it.
unlabelledView post →This month's game is Anodyne 2: Return to Dust, so even though you won't get a game (or get charged) til next month, you should check out a Game Club near you anyway cuz we'll be talking about it in a couple of weeks!
unlabelledView post →Rolled credits in Angeline Era, but I already know I'm far from done. Probably my favorite Analgesic game, though I think I still prefer the story in Anodyne 2 over it
unlabelledView post →Purchased!! Going to share with my groups tomorrow and play. From what I heard I'm most excited about the music, but also that Anodyne 2 is a favorite game, so the fact it's made by the same person and looks similarly is exciting to me - all while being what is hopefully a new experience altogether.

unlabelledView post →you will never play another video game like Anodyne 2!! 60% off is amazing, strong rec it
unlabelledView post →That plus Anodyne 2 (excellent indie action adventure game) and War for the Overworld (fun Dungeon Keeper-like)
unlabelledView post →If I look at my history of games I've gifted to people on Steam there's a streak of like 8 in a row of them being this game, and it is with extremely good reason. Play Anodyne 2!!!
unlabelledView post →Low-poly graphics and aesthetics are awesome, you don't need to perfectly recreate the PS1's rendering style in order to justify it. Anodyne 2 is an excellent example of a game that uses low-poly graphics unapologetically, and being something of its own.
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2: Return to Dust Analgesic Productions is probably my number 1 favorite indie studio, and easily top 5 game developers in general. This is a must-play, it does a masterful job of establishing frameworks and then challenging them dramatically. Some of my dearest game memories were with this.
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2: Return to Dust A weird but fun game with a real great story that's honestly kinda relatable, one game that I have to revisit soon 💖
unlabelledView post →This game looks really interesting, will try to remember to wishlist it And Anodyne 2 is so fucking good aaaah
unlabelledView post →i guess it provides a nice "background" but they should use lesser known indie games' music (with permission/compensation - more exposure). I'd be happy to hear Anodyne 2 music, for example
unlabelledView post →I’m jumping between my replay of Ocarina of Time, a little known indie game called Anodyne 2 (highly recommend) and Unbeatable! Also trying to wrap up at least one of them before Fortune’s Weave haha
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2 is functionally a critique of these kind of complaints and that's a large part of why I love that game
unlabelledView post →Ok, Anodyne 2 has the sauce. Feels good to move, some stuff to think about, a good story, and one of those fun games of the game recognizing mechanics, and then UI being VERY important story wise. Oh, and quite a few other things, but gotta watch me or play it yourself!
unlabelledView post →A sequel 6 years after the original, let's try Anodyne 2: Return to Dust! Now a 3D game with 2D elements, lets see how this game connects to the first! #VTuber #VSky #Anodyne #Metroidvania #Anodyne2 www.twitch.tv/emiko_choroi
unlabelledView post →131. Anodyne 2: Return to Dust Been meaning to play this game for a while ever since Nitro Rad talked about it and it's pretty dang cool. I really found myself falling in love with exploration and puzzles in this game and the plot is a pretty sweet companion to it all. High Clouds
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2 is genuinely a life-changing experience. store.steampowered.com/app/877810/A...
unlabelledView post →Thank you everyone for joining us! We've finished Anodyne 2 and got the good ending! We've also made a start on the previous game in the series and managed to complete the first set of dungeons! Come back next week to see what The Land has in store for Young!
unlabelledView post →Oh wonderful, Anodyne 2 is such a personal favourite, I absolutely adore that game
unlabelledView post →If you ever play Anodyne 2 I highly suggest watching a speedrunner do it because, despite being able to do all of the nano dust cleaning in any order you want, apparently if you clean Clonwei/Yonwei and close the game down, then Iwasaki then Geof in that order, you glitch the game and can't progress
unlabelledView post →The second game is incredible… I love all of Analgesic Productions games but Anodyne 2 and their newest title Angeline Era are something really special. Their work got me into game dev too!
unlabelledView post →lmao yeah it's mad, phenomenal bit too. if you love the vibes I'd defo recommend Anodyne 2, not an action game but similar off the wall mechanics and writing, one of my favourite games
unlabelledView post →The release of Angeline Era means I should probably get around to playing Anodyne 2... The first game is excellent and I still think about it most of the time, even though it's been 3 years since I've played it!
unlabelledView post →playing Anodyne in 2013 was like, absolutely foundational for me in terms of understanding my own taste and what i want out of games; an absolute all-timer. and Anodyne 2 is prob even better! unreasonably excited for this game.
unlabelledView post →They have a new game (Angeline Era) coming out in either December or the beginning of 2026 that I'd highly recommend based on the demo. Also, there's an Anodyne 2 for whenever you finish chipping away at the first.
unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2 has probably one of the most catchy and remarkable soundtracks I've ever heard. Very memorable game, I was sad when it was over
