2010 was a stellar year for indie gaming. We didn't think that 2009 could be beat, but this year really brought out all the stops. From classical platformers like Super Meat Boy to disturbing adventure games like Amnesia: The Dark Descent, there was an aboslute flood of excellent indie games this year. From paid to free, players who wanted to try something a little different had a huge selection of titles to choose from in 2010. Here's our favorite picks from 2010 to roll in the new year!

Remakes of older games by the indie community are almost universally enjoyable, and even mainstream remakes (such as Bionic Commando Rearmed) tend to be quite fun as well. Along this same vein of Bionic Commando is the new freeware independent title Streemerz. A remake of a terrible game included in the now infamous Action 52 NES compilation, it is both extremely punishing and quite fulfilling. Naturally, if you are a fan of older, NES-styled games, this is exactly what you want, and Streemerz delivers.
