I just started an indie game review blog designed to help these games greenlighted and be reviewed in an unbiased manner as well as other things =). I'm trying to compile a list of indie games to do next. Im searching for:

Sandbox Indie (not many are out there yet, most are in development :) but feel free to suggest in development games too), Under the rug indie games (we gta help them not be underneath them rugs no moh), indie games that are getting bashed by biased players who thinks it's a clone of another indie game but are actually really great games on their own, other kewl indie games you guys like and why =).

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

At the moment my first blog was for Darkout. The developers were kind enough to share my post via tweet/fb as well as given me the green light to interview them If you guys play Darkout and want me to ask them anything let me know =). (It's also having a poll right now in the suggestion forum as featured game =) in case you guys want it featured)

If you guys like it please like my blog page on facebook and follow me on tweeter for updates =) info is on my blog

here's my blog: http://lexietgamereyeballsgr.blogspot.com/

Thank you again! This lil asian will appreciate your help and shower you with digital rice and hugs

For sandbox indies, "Don't Starve" is great its in beta atm, you buy it now on Steam or from the Devs, get access to the beta and you get 2 keys, one for you and one for a friend. Its single player, made by the devs behind Shank and Mark of The Ninja. It has had some coverage from big sites in the past.

It looks gorgeous. Its quite fun, no instruction manual, or help at all, you have to figure it out yourself. One great thing is, when you die and you will die, all your research carries over if you stay in the same world, so over a few lives you can get a great handle of where everything is and what to do.

Quick thing about your blog, the images look a bit small, I know you can click them for full screen, but some of them its hard to notice what it is

Followed you on Twitter a day or two ago. Always nice to see a new indie game blogger!

Here are some games I really enjoyed that I'd like to suggest for you:

Sandbox:

Tiny and Big: Grandpa's Leftovers
This is probably my favourite game of last year, and one of the most entertaining games I've ever played. You can literally destroy and manipulate the environment itself.


King Arthur's Gold
Really fun and polished team-based game. Shares some similarities with Terraria.


Waking Mars
Truly amazing sidescrolling exploration game about a scientist trying to uncover the secrets of a cave on Mars. Gameplay revolves around 'planting' creatures in the environments to generate as much life as possible.


Mobiloid
Very engaging exploration game where you can take apart and rebuild your character to get around the area, but unfortunately, not very polished in some aspects.


Metagolf
Charming and colourful '2D golf' game, with more of a focus on platforming and less of a focus on actual golf. Entertaining, but development has been going slowly.


Wake and Lunnye Devitsy
BossBaddie's first two games, and both are absolutely fantastic. If I had to pick one, it would be Wake though, the atmosphere is incredible. Also, both are currently available in the IndieRoyale Valentine's Bundle


Other games:

The Journey Down: Chapter One
Fantastic point-and-click game that any fans of Monkey Island shouldn't pass up. Great art and dialogue.


NEO Scavenger
A very detailed and engaging turn-based exploration/survival game. Very difficult, however.


Out There Somewhere
Probably my other favourite game from last year, Out There Somewhere is a sidescrolling puzzle platformer with fantastic art and music. It's short, but what's there is brilliant.


Flotilla
Minimalistic turn-based space game. Features crazy dialogue, and events dictated by where you decide to go in your adventure. Much more engaging than it looks at first.


Machinarium
It's been out for a while, but it's still one of my favourite games of all time. Point and click gameplay with some of the best art, storytelling, and music you'll ever find in a game.


Dustforce
One of the nicest looking games around, and also one of the most frustrating. Hardcore platformer with a much more fluid movement style than others.

Rochard
Fun physics-based sidescroller with gravity manipulation, and great graphics and dialogue.
Sometimes I just sits and thinks, and sometimes I just sits.

If I had to pick one, it's Tiny and Big. My next top three are 'Out There Somewhere', 'Waking Mars', and 'Rochard' (in order).

And yeah, I gave a bit of a big list, sorry! I could have kept adding to it but I figured that was probably enough for now. :P If you ever want any more suggestions, just shoot me a tweet!
