Good indie games

[BlackMage]

Any good indie games to play? I am considering buying Terraria but any other than that?

I'll throw my two cents in and suggest both FORCED and Project Zomboid, both available on Steam.

FORCED is an action/puzzle game that has you doing both simultaneously. It's a strange concept, but works really well. Features up to 4 player co-op, with "a completely separate game for each number of players" (they apparently made four versions of the game so it was just as challenging with any number of players). Rather challenging, but a good amount of fun.

Project Zomboid is a game that takes away as much of the 'kill zombies to survive' bit as it's possible to do in a zombie survival game. So long as you're smart, the zombies won't be what kill you…lack of food, water, medicine, and available shelter is far more likely. The game informs you right at the start it's a 'play until you die' survival game (yes you can save and come back later), so there's no way to 'win'…it's all about how long you can hold out. Game's still in beta, with some features like NPC survivors yet to come, but the online multiplayer is a go, and it's entertaining to see just how long your chosen survival tactic will let you hold out against the inevitable.

I don't really like puzzle games but I'll still check out FORCED. PZ sounds nice, though.

For clarification, the puzzle aspect is more of 'you have 6 statues attacking you. You cannot hurt them yourself. The current mission is to destroy them. How are you going to manage this?' or 'three deadly lasers are preventing you from passing this area. There's no way around them, and there's no switch to shut them off. How can you get through?' than a 'let's stop the action to have you solve this locked door puzzle' setup. It's a three dimensional world where you're constantly trying to clear your way forward while holding enemies off. For anything you alone cannot do, there's a glowing orb that you have loose control over that provides the answer to the problem. Successful manipulation of the orb and yourself is where the puzzle aspect comes from.

Super Meat Boy is amazing if you're into difficult platformers. There's also Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, which is a top-down shooter, I guess? It doesn't really fit the category exactly, but it's a fun survival game. However, the one game I would recommend above all the others is Risk of Rain. It's a sidescrolling shooter/exploration game with a ton of upgrades and plenty of different characters and items to unlock. The world it takes place in is awesome and the music is phenomenal.

Is there any indie games which has a diverse and open world?

Starbound is a pretty good indie game with a diverse and open world. Well, really many diverse and open worlds. It's a lot like Terraria, but also a lot different. There is space travel for one, so if you get bored with one world or need different resources, you can just go to another world. There are also different races (only differences are aesthetic) and NPC villages on many planets. There is kinda a plot in the game, and there are bosses.
