unlabelledView post →4,327 days ago I put a Easter egg into Anodyne. It was based on what let's player, raocow, would say when finding HP Ups in indie game "An Untitled Story". And today in his first Anodyne playthrough...he has found the heart. The cycle is complete!
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 →Indie game-covering folks, do not skip on this. Analgesic Productions (Anodyne 1 & 2, Sephonie, etc) are a fantastic studio.
unlabelledView post →The video game "Stray Children" is very satisfying and if you remember the old DS RPG "Contact" and feel like "Contact" was made for you personally, you should play "Stray Children" immediately. I mean, also if you liked "Anodyne" or "Moon". But the most direct Feel transfer is Contact.
unlabelledView post →listening to some unused songs from Even the Ocean's OST. some fans say it is our most haunted game and i agree bc theres a whole 2nd unused OST made for the game in a style in-between Anodyne 1 and ETO. and the postgame is an entire game's worth of empty levels htch.bandcamp.com/track/in-a-s...
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 →Today's weird archival discovery...in one of marina and I's first interviews (2012), a host asked if Anodyne combat is influenced by Ys! Never heard of it at that time and did not follow up on the game for many years. If someone has a time machine they should go back and get me to play it earlier..
unlabelledView post →Played a lot of cool older indies lately to clear out some backlog. Runner3 - reminds me of Tropical Freeze if it were a rhythm game SteamWorld Dig 2 - 2nd time beating, still as addictive as ever Chasm & Anodyne - fell off previously but gave a 2nd go and super impressed with both! Games are fun
unlabelledView post →8) Anodyne Gonna stop shilling RPG Maker a bit to shill the works of Analgesic Productions (who recently released a new game, btw). Anodyne was their first game that follows in the vein of Gameboy Zelda games while having a surreal story.
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 →A new week, a new schedule! I want to learn a new art program, and show it off on stream, but I don't know if I'll have time to get it ready by Wednesday. Let's give it a shot! This Sunday, we'll start Anodyne! it's the first game by the Angeline Era devs, and I want to check it out again!!
unlabelledView post →I'm still learning, but I today I tried my hand at Young from the esoteric indie game #Anodyne ! Would recommend if your a fan of discovering things on your own, or beating people up with brooms
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 →Anodyne looks very good on the RG CubeXX, did not expect it to have integer scaling... also this game is just awesome i deeply recommend it even though it feels like i've barely started
unlabelledView post →fan art of “Young” the main character of the video game Anodyne #MelosHan-Tani #MarinaKittaka
unlabelledView post →Not what I normally draw, but sometimes I get an itch to just draw something pretty scenery from an indie game I like. 4K wallpaper of the cliff from Anodyne.
unlabelledView post →I played Anodyne, a 16-bit-era looking indie Zelda-like game. I checked it out because the remake was made in part by the great @sephdebusser.bsky.social and I was curious about this game she spent years remaking. I enjoyed the sleek gameplay and the dark undertones below the gentle visuals.
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 →My favourite test rooms are both semi-canon! Anodyne and Corn Kidz 64 had such neat test rooms that you have to beat to do the post-game stuff
unlabelledView post →My review of the Kindergarten alphabet banner: A: Apple. Fine B: Bat. Mediocre C: Cat. Fine D: Dog. Anodyne so far but fine if that's what you're doing E: Ed?? Are you fucking kidding???? There are a billion better choices than a guy with his name on his shirt F: Fun. A bit abstract G: Game. Sure
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 →Working on archipelago(randomizer) integration for Anodyne. Just finished getting co-op synchronization working for quite a few in-game events.
unlabelledView post →oh man I love Dark Savior so much! Analgesic's Anodyne games are this. Corn Kidz. Some older indies: Fjords, Real Texas, Super Win The Game, Full Bore
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 →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 →the excellent indie game Anodyne calls this "dust juice" and that has stuck with me profoundly ever since.
unlabelledView post →Baseline civic responsibility accomplished. Time for video game! Maybe finishing Anodyne tonight, maybe not. I'm not quite sure how much is left. Either way, Anodyne! twitch.tv/tentacle_panther
unlabelledView post →Happy pride month everyone #digitalart #anodyne #indiegame #fanart #art
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 →Come join us at 8PM BST! We'll be returning to The Land to see if we can finally face The Briar! Don't worry it won't just end there, #Anodyne has a very deep post game to explore too, so stick around and see where it all leads! www.twitch.tv/havensys
unlabelledView post →Good to know I can turn off the timer. That's a big turn off in any game with exploration. Selphonie is pretty good but not at the sane level as Anodyne. Angeline Era is worth a play too!
unlabelledView post →How do I put my feelings on Mina the Hallower? In short, I haven't been disappointed in a Zelda Clone since Anodyne. And that game goes on to make better sequels since then. But will Mina the Hallower? Only time can tell. If it came out in the last decade, maybe? I'm burned out on souls-likes.

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 →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 →Anodyne 2: Return to Dust - words can’t begin to describe what this game did for me. I was really psychologically hurt by organized religion and it spoke to me on many levels. Nova is like my ultimate kin and I could do a whole ass essay on what this game means to me.

unlabelledView post →Anodyne 2: Return to Dust is a video game for those sickos out there who believe the true essence of the video game can only be experienced by glitching out of bounds
