    Speaking of metroidvanias, one game I can't recommend highly enough is Iconoclasts, still some of the lushest pixelart I've ever seen, and has one absolute hell of a good story with some positively wonderful characters, and it's 75% off right now. store.steampowered.com/app/393520/I...

    20. Iconoclasts Yes, I keep recommending this game just about every Steam sale, no I probably won't stop. It's an action platformer with loads of puzzles, a fantastic soundtrack, some of the best pixelart ever, and a magnificent story with so many awesome characters, it's an all-timer indie gem.

    2. Iconoclasts I recommend this game every other sale, but with good reason! A light metroidvania kinda puzzle platformer experience with some of the best pixelart I've ever seen, and a deeply engrossing story I'd compared to like something from a JRPG. store.steampowered.com/app/393520/I...

    Hello! I am "konjak", I'm also an indie #gamedev who has made a few games, most notable ones probably being Noitu Love 2, Legend of Princess and Iconoclasts. Working on a new action game as best I can. 🛠 I work with pixel art, and sometimes I draw for fun.

    16. Iconoclasts This is another game I am recommending regularly, but with good reason. Bit of a light Metroidvania, still some of the best pixelart ever, fantastic characters, the music is incredible, and a plot that I likened to something you expect from a huge JRPG.

    Thinking about game idles. In my game Iconoclasts, once I deemed the main character had "seen enough stuff" she idles less bouncy. I'm so cool.

    Nine Sols is so god damn good! I'm so glad folks are playing it, it stands up there with Hollow Knight. And my goodness, Iconoclasts is magnificent. Still some of the best pixelart I've seen in a game, and that story... god damn heartrending in places. Both games are just so wonderful.

    36. Iconoclasts God I love this game, it's still got some of the most gorgeous pixelart I've ever seen, it's a metroidvania with a bit more emphasis on puzzles, and the story feels like something out of a sprawling JRPG, it's truly an exceptional indie game. store.steampowered.com/app/393520/I...

    It'd be easier to take this reaction to "indie" titles if any of them could actually describe what they mean by "indie." Is it one person making a game? Because anyone calling Stardew Valley, Cave Story, Owlboy, Axiom Verge or Iconoclasts "pixelart indieslop" has lost the plot entirely.

    Iconoclasts and Noitu Love 2 are some of the best games of those genres of all time, I think that is an outstanding track record to keep alongside the dream of having a good life with the one you love. If you make another game I’m all for it, but you also have priorities as a human being too.

    I've been getting a lot of hard statements of imprecision in action games if you go full-on delta time, but I've only ever directly had consistency feedback from speedrunners on Iconoclasts, maybe twice. It's not a fighting game, but it seems a little overstated? I paid mind to this making it.

    Back in the 80s, video games were made by hobbyists in the UK. Some major companies existed, sure, but a lot of people just sat in their rooms, or the shed, and coded. Now we have things like Axiom Verge, Iconoclasts or, of course, Stardew I do not accept that it's impossible to make a game solo.
