Are those the average Japanese indie games? If so then the average Japanese indie game looks way better than the average western indie game which still can't get over their fetish for pseudo 8 bit and pixel art.

The 8-bit fetish is not the only problem with western indie games. Some indie developers abuse Steam's Early Access and basically make nothing more than a cut-and-paste jobs of Unity assets.

Yeah but lets not forget that there's still many devs out there who copy+paste ideas from other games, most noatably these games having already been done before that achieved a decent if not better success rate and followings gained.

I noticed Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae because I remember Total Biscuit taking a gander at it, it wasn't as good as I expected just watching the gameplay and TB wasn't really that impressed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLCaOTfDLQM

It's also on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/263620/

yes there are definitely some good japanese indie games but there's also a heap of good Western Indie games like Minecraft, Terarria, Besiege. Planetary Annihilation etc, there's always going to be crap within each genre and game type, I find Turkish to be flat out wrong because as I said ebfore there are plenty of great western indie games that don't revolve around being 8-bit, 8/16/32/64 etc are all still popular styles that many still love, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that and it doesn't automatically mean they suck and are a bad thing yet Turkish takes a small gander at a few Japanese games and declares allw estern indies as shit while painting all of them with a brush.

I just find it a bit off putting when people claim one side of the planet's devs are superior to the others while painting them at the same time.
