Hello, i was wondering if there are any good indie games on steam to try out. Can be free or paid, i don’t mind if there’s no native linux build either (i play stuff with wine/proton anyways lol) and i don’t mind the genre. I’ve been thinking of trying something new as of recent so i thought i might ask it here.
Thanks!

And before y’all start downvoting an indie game has nothing to do with budget. As long as it’s not made by a non-major publisher it is considered indie. Just like Mixtape and Expedition 33 are both indie games right along with schedule 1 and balatro.
Just don’t play mixtape. It’s terrible.
As much as I love Larian and BG3, you’d have to have a really narrow definition of “major” if Larian isn’t a major studio since at least DOS2.
I just don’t understand how Expedition 33 can be considered indie. They literally have a publisher.
Indie games have publishers. Just like indie bands have labels.
Most of what we’ve called indie has had publishers, which is how we’ve heard of those games in the first place.
