2 small games I found today and thought were pretty neat and both reminded me of Yume Nikki in some ways.
Oneiric Gardens
>Exploration A short and surreal exploration game that has no objective as such, just things to explore and find. Kinda reminiscent of both Yume Nikki and LSD Dream Emulator.
http://lilithzone.itch.io/oneiric-gardens Fallow (demo)
> Adventure, Exploration This game is stylistically very reminiscent of old jrpgs and rpgmaker horror games, but with an aesthetic influence from Southern Gothic literature. The demo is unfortunately very short but the atmosphere is great.

#21: The World
>Exploration "#21: The World is a surrealistic exploration game based on my dream journal I have kept for years. The game is heavily inspired by Osamu Sato's LSD Dream Emulator. I hope to disturb, calm, and shock players with #21: The World's many settings."

Apparently the last post in this thread was made over an year ago, but whatever, I'll add something to the list regardless.
Oneshot
>Exploration/Puzzle with unique gameplay features You must help a child get back to his home world, offering him guidance as he carries the sun of a world that falls appart by the minute.
The game has pretty cool ways of breaking the 4th wall, also if you quit the game the child dies and you get a game over, the game has a lot of potential to be replayable but it really isn't [spoiler]You'll see what I mean after you finish the game[/spoiler]
Note: The original game was made in a month, for a contest of some sort from what I heard, but it's getting remastered and is going to release on steam someday in august of this year

Exploration / Sandbox / Walking / Open end / No-plot / Yume Nikki fangame(?)
Yume Niki is an indie game developed by Kikiyama from 2004 to 2007. To this day, the last version ever uploaded was the 0.10, and although Kikiyama has already stated he'd like to add more content, it seems fairly improbable at this point.
You play as Madotsuki, a hikikomori who won't leave her room. The only things you can do in your small apartment is to play a NES game called NASU, write in your dream diary (The savepoint), go out to the balcony, and sleep.
The point of the game is to explore Madotsuki's dreams. They go from a rather cutesy ambient into pretty surreal areas, and the huge amount of worlds, creatures and events has led the many fans to propose many different theories over what happened to Madotsuki and why she's locked up in her room having such dreams. Since it was published, it's got the attention of many people first in japan, and later in the west when it was fan-translated. To this day, it's gained a small cult of hardcore fans and fangames, which are (mostly) hosted in the infamous western imageboard uboachan.
The BGM is fantastic and fits really well in the game, creating a well immersed atmosphere. It's definitely a must-play for people who want to experience a different kind of gameplay rarely used in games.

>>4431 i think its accurate to say that yume nikki is a stream-of-consciousness experience. thats a label ive heard to describe these feverdream-like exploration games. yume nikki is practically a genre in its own, though, in regards to the games it inspired. theres nothing out there quite like the obscure, bootleg, slow-paced stream-of-consciousness adventure with a hint of collectathon that you get from yume nikki and its fangames

At this point itch.io is the best resource of tiny freeware games, but it's still nice to have some sort of "I have played this and I know it's good" filter.
So I hope it's still useful for the small amount of people who still check on this thread!

Spring:1944 3.00 "Operation Frühlingserwachen" released!
Spring: 1944 is a free, open source WWII themed 3D multiplayer game based on the libre SpringRTS Engine. Our goal is to create a game that is as realistic as possible while still being fun and accessible to play. Games on average take 40 minutes and feature up to 8 factions battling to the last man standing. All factions are complete with several types of infantry, towed and self-propelled guns, normal and rocket artillery, tanks, aircraft and boats. The game supports big matches with thousands of units and double digit player counts.
A new version of Spring:1944 was released. This one is numbered 3.00 with codename Operation Frühlingserwachen and is based on the SpringRTS 103 engine. Operation Frühlingserwachen or "Spring Awakening" was a combined German and Hungarian counterattack in march of 1945 against the advancing Soviet troops near Lake Balaton.
Major changes since Spring:1944 2.0 "Operation Overlord" include:
>An "in-game" faction picker widget. It is now possible to pick your faction when choosing the starting position >A preview version of a new AI called spammer was added to assist the C.R.A.I.G. AI in training you for multiplayer games. This one will throw units at your at breakneck pace from a big and scary Flakturm. Can you hold your ground against it? Install the game and find out! >Some units have received a graphics makeover in the form of new models and new skins. Build menu pictures have also been updated. >For those who have new graphics cards a new graphics makeover has been added in the form of SSAO, color correction and Cook-Torrance specular shader. US: M36 Jackson tank destroyer
JPN: Type 5 heavy tank destroyer (Na-To)
JPN: Busou Daihatsu Artillery Craft
JPN: JPNT14 torpedo boat
All: Scout cars have been added
All: long range guns (longer range howitzers)
>Flags now display their value. As always, flags give you income with which you can build units and increase in value over time. >And ofcourse many many bugfixes. GET IT HERE:

The last week videos of a japanese dude playing this game started appearing in my Youtube recommendations, initially I ignored them but I've decided to watch one of them, apparently is a japanese horror game made on RPG Maker 2000. According to Google Translate seems like the name is Red Village (Akai Mura). I don't know what it is about but here's the game if someone knows moon-rune and is interested.
https://www.freem.ne.jp/win/game/16577 And here's one of the videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bEbThLTumk& I don't know if this is a prequel or sequel but seems to be related. According to Google Translate the name's Red Swamp (Akai Numa) which makes sense since the game seems to happen at a swamp now.

A bit late, but I've heard good things about this game on rpgmaker.net.
It claims to be made in the style of older RPG Maker games, and I kinda like that since Horrorvale was really shitty in my opinion, and you couldn't really get it if you weren't a huge RPG Maker fanatic.
