I am afraid we have come to the end my friends! I have gotten too busy with work and other commitments for the foreseeable future, and I have run out of interesting countries to cover. From my list of remaining countries that could get a thread, they either have way too much (Canada, UK, USA, Japan) to make a thread that will do it jusitice, or at the other end of the spectru, they only have maybe one developer with perhaps 2-3 games that stand out, not enough to make an interesting thread or poll. This is also the case for the country I decided to go for, Croatia, but at least their top developer is a really special one, and there are a couple more small developers that have put out a noteworthy title or two, to make the poll interesting enough. Also great to have a thread for a country in Balkan, although a shorter one.

A notable Croatian developers and their games:

Croteam

By far the most successful video game developer of Balkan. They actually achieved some early success with Football Glory for Amiga and MS-DOS already in 1994. However the big breakthrough came with the Serious Sam FPS games, known for the incredible humor and style. The franchise has kind of declined in critical acclaim for each new entry, what a shame. However, the studio has kept themselves relevant, with the arguably even more celebrated The Talos Principle games, which are philosophical puzzle games. What a diverse developer!

Notable games:

Football Glory

Serious Sam: The First Encounter

Serious Sam: The Second Encounter

Serious Sam 2

The Talos Principle

The Talos Principle 2

Other games to consider:

Escape Simulator

Bear with Me

SEUM: Speedrunners from Hell

Doodle Jump

Starpoint Gemini 2

Unity of Command

Unity of Command 2

Embryo (Amiga)

Eyes in the Dark: The Curious Case of One Victoria Bloom

Kaptain Brawe: A Brawe New World

Scum

Today I learned that I haven't played any Croatian games haha

Of those though, Serious Sam looks the most like something I'd enjoy, and I have been meaning to check them out someday.

The Talos Principle 2

Nothing here for me, but bumping the thread a bit.

Serious Sam: The First Encounter was absolutely groundbreaking when it released. Keep in mind that the game was originally actually made to promote and showcase the game engine called Serious Engine since they couldn't create their original vision (a shooter with strong storytelling; they lacked the manpower to do so), but afaik nobody licensed the engine despite it being very powerful yet light on ressources for it's time.

Nope, nothing for me.

I have long been intrigued by The Talos Principle, but haven’t played it yet. Seems like a bold artistic game.
