Stream schedule for the week! I'm hoping to finish OFF tomorrow morning, and Thursday morning's stream may change. I've got a few indies I'd like to play then, so we'll see what lands. CrossCode Tuesday evening and more trophy hunting in Bloodborne on Saturday.

I propose that we ban the phrase “piggybacking off of that…” due to it being overused. All in favor?

Live now with a smol lil game called Bloodborne. Let's do some trophy hunting! twitch.tv/chipdip18
I'm back from Japan! And we're back to a regular stream week! I'm dropping The Messenger DLC because it is just not landing for me the way I loved the base game, so Saturday evenings will be trophy hunting in a little known indie game, Bloodborne. Hope to see you in stream!

The next week in indies is a huge one. I’ve got my eye of these:
- Hypogea
- Gigasword
- Winter Burrow
- Bittersweet Birthday
- Kingdoms of the Dump
- Possessor(s)
I’m sooo stoked. The year isn’t slowing down at all before GOTY season.

It is one of the best storytelling titles we have in the artful medium of video games.

Seriously, nothing but bangers in the replies to this thread. I've been working through these like a madman the last few nights and just *applause* and thanks to all for the recos.
Amazing how one can think they're fairly dialed in and miss like 30 GOTY contenders.

Alright, what smaller games do I need to try before making the GOTY list?
I'll recommend you give these a whirl:
Dispatch (you know that already though)
Keeper
Bionic Bay
Herdling
and Roger
Sword of the Sea
The Midnight Walk
(And for the love of OUYA stop calling all smaller games 'indies')

I love that the Boston cop slide never got fixed and now people just willingly go down it in tribute. It’s basically a national landmark at this point
