killamch89 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Indie games often experiment with quirky, off-beat comedy whether it's breaking the fourth wall, absurd NPC banter, or playful visual gags. Which indie title’s comedic storytelling genuinely made you laugh or smile in a uniquely charming way? Was it the parody-filled dialogue of West of Loathing, the surreal jokes in Untitled Goose Game, or something even more niche? How did the humor serve the gameplay and world-building, and did it ever step on narrative toes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 I find "Untitled Goose Game" uniquely charming with its humorous approach to storytelling. The playful mischief of the goose and the lighthearted, quirky scenarios create a delightful experience that’s both funny and endearing, showcasing indie games' ability to deliver charming, humorous narratives.

killamch89 Posted May 5 Author Share Posted May 5 Undertale's self-aware humor completely captivated me with its ability to simultaneously parody RPG conventions while respecting them. From Papyrus's endearing obliviousness to Mettaton's narcissistic showmanship, the character-driven comedy created genuine emotional connections rather than just easy laughs. The way it shifted between absurdist jokes and poignant moments felt revolutionary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
