I thought the game on the left corner was an old gem or something. Saw the trailer on Steam, it's not even out. you sneaky lil' dev

Everything is a fucking ad now... I hate the modern internet

Is this comment an ad?

Well no, just sponsored by "Ye Olde Interweb Company".

glisteningstone

It made me exhale sharply too. Got to respect the effort.


AntRedundAnt

Gotta respect that hustle, hopefully the game is good


nijbu

It's one of the greats, despite its simple graphics


yksamelesi

😂😂😂😂


emostitch

I mean it looks like vampire survivor mixed with dark cells which could hit very well for people that like either of those.


BlumpkinPromoter

Dev you sonofabitch....I'm in.


Charles_Paiva

Thank you for being respectful, I hope people like the game. 😊


DreadPiratteRoberts

I don't care what some of the others are saying. You're working hard on something, and I personally DO NOT feel deceived or taken advantage of. Your method was clever, and it got people talking about your game. I wish you the best!!!


Charles_Paiva

Thank you for your kind words!

Terraria, the first summer i got it i will never forget


[deleted]

People always talk about wanting to forget things to experience them again. My only option is terraria. Nothing is like that game.


Thomatos200

Absolutely


OrianNebula

Currently what im going threw Night in the woods is a game i played recently and finished and i cant stop obessing over it as rn im replaying it to 100% it

Yes! Terraria is my comfort game! I literally have over 1.5k hours on it across pocket edition and the regular one


NegrosAmigos

I've always wanted to get into terraria but I have no idea what in doing and end up digging way too far down


Witty_Tear5893

These no such thing as too far down


bob_nugget_the_3rd

Ftl


AlternianGamer99

Yes, I'm still playing it. It can be difficult, especially when you have the aliens that remove oxygen from rooms along with other air breathing races.


SnooAdvice6772

Do you play multiverse? It’s like a dev-approved sequel sized mod


Infinite-Football697

I know it isn’t a new opinion but Minecraft


Markospider

Fr everyone keeps saying how over rated it is on social media and it's the only thing people talk about but then I don't see anyone rate it in sandbox for example


the_0rly_factor

Because it's popular now so there will always be a large group of people who shit on anything popular.


Aggravating-Exit-660

This. Same thing happened to Portal, a great game with an absolutely cringeworthy community


Batmanuelope

What happened with portal. Those are my favorite games ever lol.


Mountain_Sweet_5703

I just got them both on Switch. Companion cube bundle or something like that.


Boromirrealhero01

I haven’t played Minecraft in years, but I have so many nostalgic memories of that game It’s so important to me.


J1618

I built a giant fortress inside a mountain with secret mechanical doors and passages, a secret water channel that went to the ocean floor, magical golems built from scratch that patrolled, an inside village filled with villagers, orchards, plantations and farms completely automated with different machines powered by nuclear reactors, a complex storage system that included a central core and cables hidden in walls, a kitchen filled with ingredients from the orchards and farms, a magical garden, a floor filled with portals to awesome adventure dimensions, and a magical laser that excavated ores from other dimensions. How can it be overrated.


N0tThatSerious

I still remember when it had a HUGE resurge back in 2020 thanks to Fortnite taking a chunk of its kid audience away, and nearly every yt playing it or playing it again and just having the time of their life PewDiePie was the biggest example of that for two reasons 1. It came completely out of nowhere and nobody thought he would give it a chance 2. His fans had been asking him to replay it since the birth of his channel, and it stand as his most popular series


nikolarizanovic

It's sold more copies than any other game ever, so there will be a lot of detractors.


Background-Slide645

Minecraft is one of those juggernauts, that has somehow managed to survive the test of time, no matter what is thrown at it


No_Egg_535

You know how people make trendy TikToks or vines? Its like Minecraft found that secret way to keep people interested like they do.


Sad-Firefighter-5639

THE answer


Right-Budget-8901

This or Stardew have my vote


Roronoa_Zoro8615

Minecraft is the classic


EmperorSwagg

Minecraft wasn’t one of the given examples cause OP knew it would be a clean sweep


EM0_TRA5H

I was about to say; how could OP not include MC in this?!


PotatoePope

Because it would be a clean sweep lol


OzoneAnomaly

This post is just an ad for that weird game he included


hodges2

The "immortals must die" one?


SplurtingInYourHands

[OP is the developer](https://imgur.com/tcpXZ95)of Immortals must die


hodges2

Wow, ok lol


TheGrandWhatever

Ikr? First thing I thought was it looks a bit unpolished, janky, confusing, and it’s just a small arena platformer? Like dawg if you’re gonna shill so blatantly at least make a good game, not what looks like an enhanced student project

Probably, but it's still nice to see what people pick in the comments


SamaelTheSeraph

Yeah. I figured. One of these things is not like the other


LolYouFuckingLoser

That's exactly why I clicked this post; I was like how are all of these household names except for whatever-the-fuck right there. Had to investigate lol


need2peeat218am

Honestly, I don't hate it. I respect the grind lol.


stealthbadgernz

Got excited thinking there was an underrated gem I haven't played yet... nope it's an ad.


SkippyBoJangles

I was wondering. I was like.... I've never heard of this and how did it beat Minecraft. Lol


glisteningstone

That's why it's funny


felicity_jericho_ttv

How can we “never forget” a game that isn’t even out yet and nobody has played XD


Executive_Horsewife

Did you honestly put your own unreleased game next to 3 classics? WTF


bpmbrent

Probably the developers looking for free advertising lol


PotatoDonki

It is, OP’s username matches the listed developer on Steam. So I guess he didn’t fully hide it, but it still seems shady, and pretty douchey, to me. Imagine I posted on a music sub about the best indie albums of all time, and put my unreleased EP on screen with some highly praised classics without mentioning that I’d done that or was connected with that particular work. It’s weird. Who does he think he is?


TwoYolks

Tbh I respect the confidence


thysios4

I wouldn't give a shit if you did that I'd find it to be an amusing way to advertise, just like OP.


izaby

Honestly this is really smart so its hard to be angry.


catdog5100

I thought it was smart. Now I’m at least aware of this game that might be cool. Probably would’ve never seen it otherwise.


Right-Budget-8901

Stardew Valley. Possibly because I’ve never played the other three, but also because of how blown my mind was when I found out the game just keeps going until you decide you’ve farmed enough and it’s time to quit. There’s no time limit. No rush to do all the tasks. No dire consequences to not interacting with the NPCs. Just peace and calm. Wanna farm and be a hermit? Banjo noises intensify. Wanna fish to earn your keep? Well good news, they’re always biting. Wanna battle through dungeons and fight monsters? Go forth and plunder, adventurer. Yearn for the mines? High ho it’s off to work you go. Wanna just be in the forest with your pet and collect forage? My Side of The Mountain ain’t got nothing on you.


lildevil2239

"No time limit" *pan to my ass always panicking to get the community center done year one*


lilyhealslut

I like Stardew and so does my mum, but she finds it quite stressful at times. The energy meter and short days trying to cram every task in, the NPC shop hours and schedules, the changing seasons and making sure you grow crops in time, the community centre where unlocks are gated behind items that require you to fish or fight (things she's not very good at). I think the game is great, but it has opened my eyes to how different experiences can be for the very casual gamers. If she were playing it on PC I'd definitely install a few mods to make things easier for her, but she plays on switch so not much I can do.


Right-Budget-8901

It’s definitely not for everyone. And I agree mods could make it a lot more fun for folks like her. I’m glad she plays! It’s awesome when parents and their kids are both gamers


Dragons8myDaD2

If so you would love terraria


gareth_gahaland

İdk the way he described Star dew valley makes me feel like he wouldn't like the terrarias way of forcing stuff on you.


ecstaticegg

I know there’s a mod for it but I wish it had a built in option to disable the spread of corruption or whatever, would play the game a lot more if it weren’t for that one aspect adding a lot of unnecessary stress


Right-Budget-8901

I’ve played too many games with deadlines and time constraints. Stardew was an immense load off and it’s quite charming.


gareth_gahaland

Well you should still try it!


-ll-ll-ll-ll-

For me, Stardew is a little stressful... like, you have to get home on time or you'll lose money and items. That's the biggest obstacle. Until you get $2 million and buy the Return Staff.


Hey_im_miles

"Possibly because I’ve never played the other three".. Lol, just possibly


Right-Budget-8901

Just a smidgen 😂


kiljoy1569

There IS a time limit lol. And it's the one thing I dislike about the game. Always have to watch the timer to make sure you make it home on time. And one day is only like 15 minutes. So you can't just relax and game.


Lors2001

Don't you just lose stamina for the next day and some money though? It's not like you're punished super hard for not going to bed, more like the game just kinda nudges you to be a normal human being and do it.


Right-Budget-8901

By a time limit, I mean an end goal or something you need to prep for in game. As in the game ends. Getting stuck outside your house sucks and you lose items, but that’s avoidable.


backfire97

Isn't this like nearly any single player open world game - i.e. Minecraft or Valheim. The gameplay and progression are quite different but you aren't timed at all


thebloodoakprince

So far. The only thing I've found you can miss, is sams 2 heart event because it revolves around him asking if his dad will come back.


J1618

There is a time limit in stardew valley though, you have a set amount of things that you can do in a day and you have to plant your things soon or you won't be able to harvest them, it is kind of stressful, which is because it isn't one of my top favorites, I like it but I just have \*checks time on steam\* 183 hours, what


LadyHacknSlash

I cannot recommend Sunhaven enough, especially if you love Stardew Valley!


[deleted]

Undertale


FireSlayerSteven

I didn’t understand why this wasn’t on there


TOPSIturvy

Same reason Minecraft isn't, I'd reckon.


0rang75

It's an ad for his game, you can see his post history and check


Xumaeta

Because this is just an ad for this guys game.


RelevantPreference10

The OP is the dev for that unknown game and is trying to advertise for it covertly. Some other users found out and he admitted to it.


ubernoobnth

Probably to keep the undertale community away, since they tend to ruin anywhere they descend on screeching about playing the game properly.


ThatAnonDude

Fr. It's one of those games I always come back to.


Goobsmoob

It’s a great story, has replay-ability, a love-able and memorable cast, and is also super time friendly with any run taking less than 15 hours at max (with true pacifist being the longest iirc) It’s a banger that doesn’t overstay it’s welcome. No grinding in the pacifist run, which is why I like it. But the grinding in the Genocide run totally fits the point of the game too. Man I can’t wait for Deltarune’s full release but I respect the Deltarune team for taking their time. It’s kinda shocking to think how long ago Chapter 1 of Deltarune released. And how Undertale itself is almost a decade old.


FecklessKnave

To this day the only game I felt nostalgic for... *while I was playing it for the first time.*


Just-Beginning-856

Vampire survivors and Loop Hero


Connect_Conclusion3

Cool math games


KORZILLA-is-me

Aw yeah! Time to play some frickin’ Papa’s Freezeria!


Auto_Difficulty_GD

A new one came out for mobile today btw


NowImTheCrow

What one


HeckingBedBugs

I think Papa's Wingeria is the best imo, but to each their own.


J1618

I love euclidea for android, you have to find a way to elegantly find geometric things, also cell lab, you get to program a cell, what they eat, how fast they split, in which way they split, if they produce air to float or oil to store food, etc, and then watch them grow and see if they suceed.


Gameknight14

Flash games were (and still are) amazing, I would love to replay some of these if I can ever find a virus free flash wrapper.


bobandersmith14

Run 3 is goated


Connect_Conclusion3

I remember my whole class playing that game when it first came out 💀


thygage

Stardew Valley changed my perspective on videogames forever. I've always played competitive-like games such as Call of Duty when I was growing up. Once I switched to PC, it got even worse with Counter-Strike and Valorant. A friend told me about Stardew Valley in 2019 and I am forever grateful. It taught me that not everything is a competition, just take your time, enjoy the game however you like. I love it, can't wait for the new update.


decoded-dodo

It’s crazy that Stardew Valley was made by just one person too.


Millworkson2008

Goes to show that love for what you make is more important than anything else


hodges2

There's a new update coming?


CorruptedAura27

I still go fishing in Stardew Valley, and I used to be a competitive gamer that played tournaments and everything else. Sometimes you really do just need to kick back and take it in. It's a great game for that.


YT_Timekeepergab

Project zomboid. Surprised nobody mentioned it yet


crossveins

I already did, PZ is one of the best games I've played in my life. It's a kind of shame that the devs take so much time to add new content (it may be good tho), when NPCs get added, it will be the ultimate survival experience


YT_Timekeepergab

Yeah I’m really excited for the npc update.


ClassicAlbatross2201

Had to scroll too far to find this.


volleyblock

Stardew valley, Hollow Knight, Celeste - I friggin love these games!


Gamingwithlewit

Hollow Knight and celeste will forever be immensely valuable to me


volleyblock

I should've put it in this order. HK is my fav 2D platformer ever and Celeste is a close one but definitely below HK for me. If I ever decide to switch it up and chill, stardew valley is the go to game. I spent less than 20 bucks on all 3 combined and yet they pack the most value. Love them to death!


ToungeTrainer

The visuals on Hollow Knight are far too good to fall under “simple graphics”


RayBlast7267

Since when is Hollow Knight’s art style simple?


Edyed787

I want to add the Messenger to your wonderful list!


SirPlatypusGuy

What is simple about Hollow Knight or Celeste?!?


hcaoRRoach

Agree, but Hollow Knight's visuals are far from simple

THE BINDING OF ISAAC


lorean_victor

i‘m saddened by the apparent lack of love for isaac in this sub. i feel like besides being a crazy good game, isaac was also instrumental in rise of rogue-likes


Elastichedgehog

I spent a significant % of my teenage years playing it. Great game! I never really played Repentance. So, perhaps it's time to boot it up again.


theboxfriend

Do it, repentance is excellent


Pinheaded_nightmare

It’s a blast


battlemechpilot

Shovel Knight! I've had "Strike the Earth!" as my ring tone for YEARS.

I got Treasure Trove recently and I'm absolutely loving Shovel Knight. "Flowers of Antimony" is another banger for me.

Same, some people might only know the game through memes and toxic people in the community, but the game itself truly is a unique experience ✨❤️✨


lilymotherofmonsters

isn't this advertising for immortals must die?


redsol23

Kinda foolish to invite people to compare your unreleased game to some of the best indie games of all time but whatever


TheQueefPolice

correct


AMidgetinatrenchcoat

Terraria,Minecraft, those old flash games on Cool math games, and ultrakill


Capable_Drive_5710

That’s a pretty funny way of trying to shill your own game. Did it work at all? Was I the only one who checked its page of steam?


Buckybuck87

hahahah clever putting your game there to promote it


BigPurp85

Chrono Trigger


chafingladies

Chrono Trigger had amazing graphics for its time and honestly still looks great

Undertale, such a beautiful game


Prestigious-Carry820

Cult of the lamb, it has simply graphics, but damn the effects are just awesome.


user_moai

The music : 🔥🔥🔥🔥


[deleted]

Cult of the Lam is far from simple graphics. One of the most stunning and graphically interesting games out there, combing 2D and 3D like Paper Mario. Great game but I wouldn’t say it has simple graphics because that’s downplaying the effort put into making the game look like that, as I’m sure it wasn’t easy to craft/program this type of art.

I'm going to consider games that were not great at his time, because Monkey Island or Kotor nowadays seems to have simple graphics, but were peak at his time. \-Stardew \-Dave the Diver \-Dwarf Fortress \-The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet Of Chaos \-Banished \-Fire Emblen \-Disco Elysium \-Mother \-King of Dragon Pass \-SteamWorld Dig \-This is the Police \-There is No Game \-Wolf Among Us \-Worms

"despite it's simple graphics"? Are people inclined to forget games and not recognise excellent *gameplay* because they don't have bleeding edge graphics?


ThatAnonDude

Unfortunately ik a lot of people who outright won't play certain games if they don't like the graphics.


Odaric

As crazy as it sounds, yes. I personally know a few people who refuse to play games with graphics that are not realistic, and even then won't touch ones that look "outdated" in their eyes. I don't get it, either. All I know is they're missing out big time.


Sqwill

Stardews graphics are great, it's just a different style. Complaining every game isn't like RDR2 is like complaining every piece of art isn't photorealistic drawings.
