Favorite Indie game of 2010

[pyrosaw]

What was your favorite non-AAA game of 2010? Whatever you decide as indie game is totally up to you. Usually downloadble, some games did not get a big budget or press.

My personal favorite was Scott Pilgrim Vs the World: the Game. A fun beat em up, one that rivals the success of Castle Crashers.

Edit: Fair enough, it was developed by Ubisoft. In that case, I put my vote for Castle Crashers, because I only got to play it this year on PSN.

It sort of counts as it was only released in NA and EU in 2010... (Japan in 2007)

So I'm going to roll with Recettear.

There's gonna be a lot of minecraft coming up.... (though I could be wrong)

Though I'd say Amnesia: The Dark Decent. Scary... very Very Scary....

Arghhh... this is going to make me have to choose between VVVVVV and Super Meat Boy. Can't I choose both?

Tapic on the iPhone.

Such good fun.

Amnesia : The Dark Descent being my favorite.

Closely followed by Recettear.

My personal favorite was Scott Pilgrim Vs the World: the Game. A fun beat em up, one that rivals the success of Castle Crashers.

Wasn't that developed by Ubisoft? If so you're kinda defying all norms of "indie" in order to call it an indie game since it was technically self-published...

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Recettear.

The PC suffers from a massive shortage of quality JRPGs. This was a very nice surprise.

Minecraft isn't all that fun, imo. A giant timesink, basically. I never even bought the "full" version.

 

[Bugerion]

Super meat boy(although im still stuck at lvl 6-5 omega) and amnesia

I never said your number one favorite. I said "Favorite games".

True, but not a AAA game, and didn't get much press. Therefore, an indie game.

Tough choice... I think it's a draw between Shank and Super Meat Boy.

 

[Aiden_the-Joker1]

I didn't play many indie games this year but my favourite is definitely minecraft.

True, but not a AAA game, and didn't get much press. Therefore, an indie game.

It was also developed by professionals, supported on the top tier channel of console gaming [XBLA and PSN] and had a massive movie license to help sell it...

Castle Crashers was developed by two people.

This suggests only one:

What was your favorite non-AAA game of 2010?

hate to break it to you but Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is definitely not an indie game it's just a low budget game by a big game corporation (Ubisoft) so that's that...
Now for me I did not really play anything new this year not indie not triple AAA cause of some technical problems I do not wish to explain

 

[Jark212]

Recettear easily tops my indie list...

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Minecraft, followed by Super Meat Boy.

 

[Kadoodle]

Minecraft.

 

[Riddle78]

Minecraft,but it's pulling in money like a BioWare smash hit!
