4. Platformer is the most popular genre for indies, and I like very few platformers besides Sonic. |

Plus, as you said, it's not easy to find indie gems and every time I look for them I find platformers, platformers and platformers and I'm sick and tired of 2d platformers. |
Hmm, strange. I think there is a strong variety of indies, but I have the feeling recently the most used genre in indies are adventures. May it be classic point-and-click like Thimbleweed Park or more controller friendly games like Oxenfree, or 3D action adventures like Mulaka - this I see more often than platformers. Maybe you look onto Indies too much from consoles. On consoles platformers are a bit more common, as this maps well onto the platform. But indies actually are most common on PC.
