Powerslide by Ratbag Games was fun and the last game dev I can think of right now that made a game that was both fun and held reasonable significance.

A really easy choice here, Hollow Knight.

Loved playing that game in the local arcade back in the day



Bioshock from what I played.

My brother got Hollow Knight on Switch and loved it to bits. He insisted that I must play it, but I'm stuck in another "no-gaming" phase that I'm struggling to get out of.



If BioShock is indeed eligible, that wins for me in a landslide. If not, I’d give it to Hollow Knight and Cult of the Lamb.

Pandemic Studios Brisbane studio springs to mind.
Army Men RTS and the first two Detroy All Humans!! games.

Others like Melbourne House, Beam Software/Krome/Tantalus spring to mind. Those last three get slashes for significant overlap. I’ll probably think of more.

Edit: I forgot Melbourne House were the continuation of Beam that were then bought by Krome.

You are absolutely right. Pandemic Studios Brisbane probably deserved a section, I added Detroy All Humans!! 1 and 2 to the Others list for now, and see if I will return to it later. It is a bit hard to figure out how much their games were developed by their American division though.

Cult of the Lamb was a major omission, don't know how I forgot that! It should probably make the main poll. Anyway, I added it to Other games.



Bioshock easy win here for me.

Destroy all Humans! 1 and 2 would be 2nd/3rd.



Hollow Knight. L.A. Noire and Bioshock are great too.



Actually kinda surprised that Australia actually has been a part of some big games.

For me...
1) Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis.
2) Bioshock.
3) Destroy all Humans.

My home country. :)

I gotta give it to Bioshock. From the unforgettable world of Rapture, to its dark and intelligent story, to its intense plasmid-powered combat, it's a stone cold classic through and through, and for my money one of the best video games ever made.
