Ive been trying some indie developed games this past year, more than ever and I'm in awe what lone devs or small teams can accomplish.

So, what are some games that you think don't have the recognition they deserve, need a bigger audience or you would like the community to try.

I myself for example have played Monster Sanctuary, which at this point I think is not that hidden anymore and played a rougelike game called Elona, haven't played RimWorld or Dwarf Fortress but I might in the future.

Sorry if a similar post already exists haven't checked.

Distance is an arcade racing game with a neon cyberpunk aesthetic. And the main campaign has elements of horror.

It's one of the most unique games I've played - it's almost more of a platformer than a racing game. And the main campaign is worth the asking price alone, but there's 2 other campaigns, a bunch of standalone maps, a level editor with workshop support, a random track generator and multiplayer. Even as someone who really doesn't care for racing games, I absolutely adore this game, and it's criminally underrated.

Distance is genuinely my favorite racing(?) game ever. There are so many incredible levels on the steam workshop too. Nitronic Rush, the game that Distance is a not-really-sequel to is still free to download too if you play all that and still want more.
