Welcome to the Indie Appreciation Thread!
If there's something indie-related that you consider worth mentioning, but not relevant enough to warrant its own thread, feel free to discuss it here.
Otherwise, if you want to know what this is about, or what the text format (in the Platforms section) and the abbreviations (in the Genre section) mean, just take a look at the introduction thread.
And that's all. Have fun!
