You know, after occasionally dealing with some of the most vitriolic, insensitive toxic a*sehole stereotypes of gamers you can imagine through work, this thread on STW is properly heartwarming to read :)
Some other huge recommendations for things that are a bit arty and in most of which you are not a hero:
Proteus (walk around weird island that makes sound, finding out how… stuff works)
FRACT OSC (Like Proteus, but very different aesthetics, more obviously puzzle based, and you’re walking around inside a giant synth)
Flotilla[/url] (3D space combat, difficult to get into at first if you’re not used to having so many degrees of freedom, and it looks quite typically game-like, but but there’s something deeply flippant and lovely about the tone it’s written with)
Kentucky Route Zero (I struggle to describe this beyond the words art, philosophy and Americana. Three parts of five released so far)
Become a Great Artist in Just 10 Seconds (If you like glitches, this is for you)
Lumino City[/url], which they made out of photographs of beautifully intricate and tiny physical models.
