STP: Oceanhorn is an upcoming action RPG from Cornfox & Brothers and FDG Entertainment. If you want to get excited about the game, all you need to do is look at the screenshots and watch the early gameplay footage below. But there’s a lot more to Oceanhorn than just good looks. We recently chatted with designer/artist/creative director Heikki Repo about the game, and he has us pretty excited to get our hands on it when it launches later this year. Read on for the goods.
Not got a Nintendo console but want to play something like The Legend of Zelda? Look no further.
I'd say Ocean's Horn, the closest i could think of. On PS4 i mean, other ones i have no idea ^^''

"Hollow Knight’s early success honestly does not come as a surprise to me. It seems like every couple weeks we hear about an indie game finding success on Switch. The Nintendo Switch is sort of becoming the new home for indies. I don’t think anyone saw this coming, not even Nintendo." -- Nintendo Enthusiast
“Toward the end of the Wii’s lifecycle was when the indie scene really started to take off.“
Indie games garnered considerable success long before 2012.
When you heavily push indies, they thrive. They did well when Microsoft first launched "Summer of Xbox" and then Microsoft stopped caring. They did well when Sony pushed PS4 as the indie platform, then they stopped caring. Eventually Nintendo will stop pushing Indies and they'll slow down there too.
Basically when the system developers/marketplace owners push that content, they do well. Who'd a thunk that giving more marketing time and space to an indie developer helped their success?
BTW most of the very successful indies on Nintendo we're well known (if not successful) on steam. So being well known as you move onto a new platform gets you more news and attention. Again, it's a shocking revelation.
Didn't alot of indie games love releasing on Vita because they were successful for years on it too? I figured a handheld with proper indie support would automatically get great support in that aspec
It's time to strike sail with Oceanhorn, a casual roleplaying game inspired by progenitors of the genre, which is fun to play despite some need for improvement.
