I've been slowly discovering new retro releases for Game Boy, NES, Sega Genesis and more, and been loving to try them out and supporting indi developers. Here are a few I found would love to see what your favorites are.

Walfie's Nonograms (GB): is absolutely amazing for a free game.

Echoes of the Unread (NES): just picked it up, and it looks like a fun platformer with a fun art style, good music, and a cool premise.

(C64) Briley Witch Chronicles https://sarahjaneavory.itch.io/briley-witch-chronicles A very fun and good written game in the style of an Jrpg.

Wow this just looks pretty. Do you know if it plays well with retro emulators?

It should work perfectly fine at least with Vice both standalone and as Core in RetroArch/libretro. I mostly played it on real hardware and on my MiSTer FPGA so my testing in emulators is limited but I played it a few hours in Vice.

I don't see why it should not work in other C64 emulators.
