Hey, community! I've been reflecting on the potential of Endless Runners and I'm curious: what genres do you think could be combined with this style to create something interesting and innovative in a saturated market?

For instance, how about an Endless Runner with RPG mechanics like in The Witcher, where you can upgrade skills while running? Or maybe a more intense take, like in Doom, incorporating shooter elements and frenetic action.

The possibilities are broad, and I’d love to hear your thoughts. I'm working on something specific related to a fusion I came up with, and I'll keep you posted on my progress. Looking forward to your comments! 🚀

I hope this is a good place to ask this. Im looking for suitable games for my mother in law. She has some serious brain damage since two years ago, and ever since then people have decided that because she has trouble putting things in words, she shouldn't be intelectually challenged at all. Today my gf installed steam on her laptop and we are looking for games that arent timebased or need a lot of finicky hand movements or too much reading, but that do have a lot of puzzle elements and like, logical thinking. We put her on baba is you and she does like it, but the words are a bit much sometimes and were looking for some variation. She also loves tetris!

So idk is this is an unusual post or not but ive never used the app until now and I'm just hoping someone on here can help me. I'm looking for this game I used to play on my phone ALL THE TIME but i cannot for the life of me find it anywhere. I had it downloaded on my old phone but i switched from android to iOS and forgot to redownload the game. I believe it was called something like "StoryXLine". I'm not even entirely sure it was an indie game i last played it when i was 13. I remember it was a pixel platformer with combat and had 3 playable charactes, 2 of them were i think foxgirl sisters and the third was some weird shadow thing. I know one of the girls used a bow and i distinctly remember that an ammo type for it was nerf darts. Unfortunately that is all i can remember about the game as i made the switch over 3 years ago now. If anybody has any idea what im talking about please help me and thank you.

Do you like their stories, gameplay, mechanics, art or anything else?

Note: I want to thank everyone in advance for their comments and replies.

Hello existing community. I recently replaced the only mod of this sub after they were inactive for 6 years. I have unlocked the sub and made it available to the public again, and I will be making changes to attempt to grow this community.

As I see it now there are primarily 3 indie games related subs on reddit. Both of the other two are very similar and have been filled mostly with indie devs posting work in progress and releases for new games. While it is great they have a space, there currently exists no place that is player centered. A community where hype, memes, information, and the overall love of independently created video games can be shared by end users. This is my vision for this community.

In the coming days I will be putting a new coat of paint on the sub, making a new set of rules official, and reaching out in the internet to help build this sub. I really want it to become something great, and I hope you all will help us all achieve that.

A little about me really quick. I've been on Reddit now for around 8 years. I started when I opened a YouTube channel as a means to share my love for games on mobile. I was a devout member of the community over at /r/Androidgaming and at one point was offered a mod position there. I burned out on android games eventually. However recently I reopened my channel, and while yes, I cover indie games, I do not intend this to be a dumping ground for YouTube channels (including my own). There will be post rules for content creators, and I will follow them strictly as I will expect others too.

That's my background though. I've been an enthusiast for indie made games for about a decade and I just want a place to share that ethusiasm with other people.

If you have any questions, requests, or advice I'm open to any of them.

Oh yeah, and welcome back.

Anyone have any reccomendations? So far I have: Virtual Rogue Sir You Are Being Hunted (HIGHLY RECCOMEND) Towel Is Required Pokemon 3D (Highly Reccomend) Super Smash Bros Crusade Flame In The Flood(AMAZING ART) ClusterTruck SuperHot And Yet Another Zombie Defense (HIGHLY RECCOMEND)

Any reccomendations?

Like most of the small indie gaming subs, there is a lot you can do given how broad independent development has become.

Did you have any specific plans for /r/IndieGamers or are you just kinda going to see how it goes?
