A collection of cool, off-beat, unique, or otherwise exemplary games. Formerly "Cool Weird Games", but lots of people think of "weird" as a negative (but IMO, more games should strive to be weird).
Not necessarily "alt games" but just cool, unique stuff you never thought you'd see. Many are free, all are worth your time.
Some are more experimental than others, I'll try and note whenever a game should be treated as such (very short, no ending, no goal, etc).
I'm SerTapTap, and my mission is to spread a love of games, particularly the hidden gems and underrated magic.
I've played through almost all of these games on my YouTube channel to give a visual quick look into new experiences. You can check out a playlist of Alt/Art games there.
Watch color procedurally generated cities in a bus ride that never ends
Dark comedy by the poolside
Personal contemplations on a tiny convience store
An adorable, funny, and painfully real exploration of nihilism
Exploration game with a lovely aesthetic
Lovely aesthetic for a bit of wandering
A somber but real look at a problem most people don't even know about, and it's toll.
Peak surreal, like everything thecatamites makes actually.
Incredible narrative game. Mae is me IRL
One of my worst fears turned into a surprisingly delightful exploration game
Papers Please, for cute animals. Yes, including the tough choices and harsh penalties.
Puzzle game operated entirely by your mouse with a lovely abstract style
Interesting procedural coastline generator, oddly amusing to just soom in and see the "detail"
Actually a screensaver (from #Screensaverjam). I adore the look of this. Shame no one uses screensavers, but it makes a nice background to run on demand for chillout sessions.
Its and bits of weird games to sift through and play at your lesiure. All unfinished but at least weird enough to be interesting.
