Unfortunately, the Smash Bros Character Poll only allows you to choose one person. Sure, you can go and borrow some library or office computers and vote for more, but that's just not right. This means that it's going to be very hard for indie game characters to get in, since there are so many popular first party characters left to include. Nonetheless, we went ahead and gathered the beginnings of an Indie Smash Bros roster, as well as potential stages and assist trophies from many other games. Here's who we chose, in no particular order!

AS: Indie games that draw inspiration, both visually and mechanically, from 8- and 16-bit games are a dime a dozen. Theres a fine line between updating and revitalizing old mechanics and simply borrowing elements from those games for the sake of familiarity. Elliot Quest definitely walks this line but never really lands into either side of the spectrum. Thats not to say that the game is bad or lacks identity, as it wears its influences on its sleeve, but Elliot Quest establishes a world and narrative of its own. Elliot Quest is a unique case of a game that feels new but has one foot firmly planted in the past as well.

GameCrate: "This weeks Indie Update is all about game jams and retro inspiration. Its no secret that a lot of the best indie titles are inspired by games of past generations. Surprisingly, however, other fantastic indies have come by way of game jams, fast-paced developer competitions that give birth to all sorts of interesting and wild ideas. We now take a look at a few retro-styled indie releases, as well as the world of game jams."

Like it or not, the Indie Game revolution is upon us. We define an "indie" game as one that has been developed by an indie developer. In some cases indie games are backed by large companies such as Microsoft, Activision, or Sony, but at as long as the core development team is indie so is the game! The DRM Gamecast has compiled a list of our Most Anticipated Indie Games that have a planned console release.

TwoDashStash: "So, let me first make it clear what I mean by best within the context of this article. These games are ones that are best from a purely platforming perspective. Tight controls, levels that are challenging (when it comes to platforming, and not saypuzzles). Anything else is secondary and only used as a tie-breaker between them. A good platformer with a great story will not rate higher than a great platformer with no story. Its also worth noting that I like my platformers like I like my coffee: fast and deadly."
