I wouldn't call Dave the Diver new (released exactly a year ago) nor indie (Mintrocket is a subdivison of Nexon). Yet it's something that can be recommended wholeheartedly.

Couple of games in no particular order that are pretty new and can be considered as indie:

Tiedättekö käsitteen kaistamagneetti?

Ei sellaista taida virallisesti olla (YSO: Ei hakutuloksia.), mutta määritän sen alinopeutta moottoritiellä ajavaksi kuskiksi, jonka perässä ajat 2-4 kilometriä, ja tämä ei poistu vasemmalta kaistalta oikealle vaikka kuinka olisi mahdollisuus ja tilaa. Yleensä katse on puhelimessa, keskittyminen kanssamatkustajien kanssa käytävässä keskustelussa, vahva lääkitys estää keskittymisen muuhun liikenteeseen tai jokin muu syy huomioida ympärillä olevaa maailmaa.

Tällaisen perässä ajoin tänään useamman kilometrin, ja kun Histan suoralla tuli tilaisuus (noin 1 km vapaata kaistaa oikealla), vaihdoin oikealle kaistalle ja kiihdytin vauhdin 125 (saksalaisen auton mittaristossa 130, !huom! ei ylinopeutta poliisin mittauksessa) kilometrin tuntinopeuteen, niin siviilipoliisi lähti perään. Tästä seurasi kasa päiväsakkoja ja niiden arvo riitti nostamaan vitutuksen suomalaiseen moottoritieliikenteeseen sekä motivaation Lemmy-viestin kirjoittamiseen.

Kun kysyin konstaapelilta, miksi minua sakotetaan, kun vaihdan vasemmalta kaistalta oikealle ja nostan ajoneuvon nopeuden sallittuun (120-130 km/h) ja ajan noin kilometrin suoraan, ja sen jälkeen vaihdan takaisin vasemmalle (kahden aiemmin edessäni roikkuneeni ajoneuvon eteen), sain vastaukseksi koska "vaihdoin vasemmalle eikä siitä mitään minuuttisäästöä synny".

Olen ajanut viimeisen parin vuosikymmenen aikana kymmeniä tuhansia kilometrejä Keski-Euroopassa ja Etelä-Amerikassa, mutta lähinnä Suomessa on havaittavissa tällainen kaistamagneetti-ilmiö. Mikä vaivaa?

Something to consider next time. I usually use FreeTube (desktop) and NewPipe (mobile). I've posted piped.video links to Lemmy so far but I think I get what you're after.

TLDR: 14 years of Earth resources was saved.

Translation:

"The liquidation of ex-deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Ilya Kyva is a special operation of the Security Service of Ukraine.

This was confirmed by "Babel" sources in the security forces.

Kiva was shot. Russian media reports that the body was found in the suburbs of Moscow.

  • With the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia, Ilya Kiva fled to Moscow. He actively advocated the occupation of Ukraine and engaged in Kremlin propaganda. In particular, on the broadcast of the propaganda show, he appealed to Putin to eliminate President Zelenskyi and his entourage and added that this is "the only possibility to stop this madness - the elimination of terrorists."
  • The next day, March 15, 2022, the Verkhovna Rada voted to strip Kyva of her parliamentary mandate. In March of last year, he was declared an international wanted man.
  • The court found the former deputy guilty of treason, public calls for violent change and overthrow of the constitutional order, as well as using symbols of the communist totalitarian regime and public calls for aggressive war. Kiva was sentenced to 14 years in prison.
