Just finished Cairn. Reminds me of what indie games used to be. A moving experience that catches you off guard with unexpected deep moments. Combined with a unique well-executed gameplay. IDK about game awards, but it's definitely my personal GOTY.

Here is a hard-to-swallow pill: The programming world is much broader than just game programming, and not all the good ideas are invented here. I'm really excited to witness the game development community finally embrace free and open-source software development after today's Unity incident.
