These Are the Indie Games That You Should Be Playing Right Now

Spelunky

This game came out in 2008 on PC and Xbox 360, and at first, it didn’t seem like it had much to offer. Based on the graphic quality and style of game it was, people didn’t really latch onto it at the time, except for those who were interested in MAKING games. Spelunkey was an early example of a “roguelike.” Roguelikes are games that take elements from Metroidvania style games and add different levels of replayability based on permadeath and standardized progression.
