People are seriously excited for Well Dweller, a dark fairy-tale metroidvania starring a little bird with a matchstick. The core pitch, from solo developer Kyle Thompson, is landing incredibly well, with huge praise for the game's promising gameplay, story, and gorgeous art style. The main hesitation comes from performance concerns, particularly around how it will run on consoles like the Switch and Xbox, with many hoping the PC version is more stable. Overall, the vibe is that this could be another fantastic indie hit in the vein of Thompson's past work like Islets and Sheepo.
