Would you rather play a shitty game with a big budget or a great game with a low budget? I mean, yes, typically games that advertise on being retro end up being shit because they're just aiming to sell, not make a good game, but that has nothing to do with budget. Some of the best games I've ever played are literally free releases made by a single person or very small teams on a $0 budget tbh.

And Dead Cells. That game is here to SLAY.

Oh my god, Stawdew Valley and Hotline Miami. Thomas was alone? Yes.

And just all of Supergiant Games.

I don't know. I'm looking at some of these pillars of the indie game community and I'm thinking the restrictions placed on these games by their budgets is part of what led the developers to some remarkable creative breakthroughs on how to present their game to players.
