What are some indie games that you are excited about, especially (but not exclusively) ones coming in 2018?

Not sure if it counts, but i'm really excited to play Shovel Knight: King of Cards!

Both of those, plus Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night  and some assorted games I backed on Kickstarter, especially Nighthawks: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/753131002/nighthawks-the-vampire-rpg-0?ref=discovery

Aragami. It got announced for the Switch and I bought it on the PS4 when it first came out and I kind of sped through it so I’m highly anticipating playing it again, it’s an amazing game.

My Friend Pedro is by far the one I'm anticipating the most.

Sable is a close second that takes some inspirations from Breath of the Wild, but its development kinda concerns me so I try not to get too excited about it;

The Gardens Between looks cool;

Gato Roboto and GRIS are two really cool games that came out of Gamescom;

Wargroove I think is on everyone's radar for quality indie games
