Which indies did you discover and would love more people to know about? I'll start: The Pale Beyond. Not sure if it's a hidden gem tbh, but it's such a good story rich game. I laughed, I cried and felt the characters struggles. If you like story rich games/ choices matter, check it out.

Receiver is pretty good. You have to clear the slide, and remember to count bullets, did your own jams, and otherwise it makes shooting more of a simulation rather than an arcade.

They released two games. The first was just a game jam thing they threw together that established the core mechanics. The second was much more fleshed out and polished.

If I'm not mixing something up, they also created Overgrowth (third-person action platformer with rabbits beating up wolfs). And in order to distribute it without messing with third party services, they've created Humble Bundle. They sold it to some company later but for a long time it was them putting together the bundles.

It's a little off-topic, I know
