Really fun list. Haven't played a whole lot of these but it was great to follow along.

I don't know that our tastes in indie games enough to justify throwing out many recommendations, but I will mention one.

I haven't actually gotten to play this myself yet, but its developers are responsible for Furi, one of my all-time favorite games, indie or otherwise. I'd be hesitant to point you toward that one because it's similar to Cuphead in its considerable difficulty and I remember you stating you weren't the biggest fan of that in its writeup, but the storytelling around it is such that I trust them implicitly to deliver the goods on that front for every game they might make.

So Haven seems like it might be up your alley as an atmospheric game centered around romance and slice-of-life and emotional storytelling. Again, I can't confirm that myself, but I thought I'd give it a shout as something worth at least checking out.
