>>36897It's not underrated let alone obscure at all, but I still really love Ib. It's short and I like the concept of the museum horror world, it just has a nice charm to it. Also, I feel nostalgic about it because I've played it over a decade ago before playing it again.
(Picrel is from left to rigth:
Kirisame ga Furu Mori/Forest of Drizzling Rain; Ib/Eve; Yume Nikki/Dream Diary; Ichiro Shounen Kitan/Boy Ichiro's Modesty)
I still want to play Omori, Middens, To the Moon, OneShot, Space Funeral, In Stars and Time, Fear&Hunger and Felvidek, but my list of games to play is so long and I often end up just checking out little games on itch.io…
There's someone on tumblr translating somewhat obscure Japanese RPGMaker games
https://tosiaki7.tumblr.com/tagged/game%20translated so I might check that out too…
People have told me to try out LiSA, but I don't find it very appealing… I also played AoOni and I didn't like it lol, I really only played it because HetaOni exists and it's also not that great; I just feel motivated to check out stuff with good fanart… I started playing OFF, but I didn't get far, the pace was a bit slow… I've tried making my own rpg maker game once and it was pretty bad lol, maybe I'll try it again with a friend…
