Fantastic titles made by people in their bedrooms.

Disco Elysium. Best writing and storytelling I've ever played.

Agreed 1000%. That game is phenomenal. It has made me laugh so hard I ended up crying, well and sometimes I was just crying. An emotional roller coaster, superb writing.

My husband was playing it and I thought the game looked terrible, but he kept saying I really should play it, and I can't put into words how fucking happy I am that I chose to try it. Can't believe I almost missed out on it. Truly a masterpiece.

Visuals are great too. A blending of a noir movie, a psychedelic trip and an abstrac painting. A rare beast.
